Chapter 42: End of Innocence
Ruby's bright emerald eyes turned dull as a fallen leaf. They lost the shine of her innocence as she stared at the despondent scene, her heart becoming cold and empty like the corpse of her grandpa. She went to her grandmother's side knowing that she as well is at death's doorstep. The blonde girl held her nimble shriveled up hand filled with blood as she can only lament their pitiable fate.

Aurelius led his horse through the lush thickets of the woods, passing by beautiful natural sceneries that made him feel like he entered another world entirely.
