But Arnold Simmons was also uneasy about leaving Hannah behind.
At that time, Arnold truly intended to take Hannah away with him, but before he could act, he was found by the people of Nine Realms.
Without even time to say goodbye, he was taken away.
Perhaps to avoid excessive gossip and losing prestige, those people did not kill him; instead, they threw him into the abyss of Nine Realms.
That was a place of death guarded during the era of the Nine Realms Kingdom, according to legend.
There were rumors that within it lay a treasure that could unite the entire planet, but others said that anyone who fell into the abyss would turn into a devil.
But Arnold didn't become a devil.
In the days he spent in the abyss, he fought countless savage beasts, and at his worst, he lay on the ground in despair, consciousness blurring as if he was back in Brie.
Hannah was still waiting for him.
Waiting in front of the stone house for him.
Later, he emerged from the abyss covered in blood.
