The gods are angry.
There are secrets locked behind the large, wooden door of the castle's library-with it, Sage's mother. There are ghosts that haunt the hallways, they linger, whispering their sins to never be heard and they watch through portraits of former kings. Lies that leave the lips of a king so revered by his people, they string along the crowned princess, who wants nothing but to believe her father.
When the king decides they all die, that is the command, and so the people of Lythria will do so.
When the gods are angry, the people will suffer. They demand blood more than a king mad upon his throne. Nyx is given the command from the gods: remove the sin from the world. And she's forced to kill the target or side with her.
