65 parts Complete 10 years ago my mother disappeared. That night is tainted with rumor, no one knowing the true story. They say she left, but I know something much darker had to have dragged her away.
My desire to discover the truth is thwarted when the insufferable Lord Nicandros appears in our village, reminding me of every one of my shortcomings. I may hate the very air he breathes, but when he tells me he knows something of my mother's disappearance I push my loathing aside to glean from him what I can.
It's only when I'm dragged to a mysterious fortress on the high cliffs after following Nicandros directions that I realize my mistake. I've handed over my trust to a man who never deserved it.
Love makes us do desperate things but in the end, love may be the only thing to save me.
