Mirelah;
I scream in pain as it slits my cheek. Hot pain takes over my entire cheek as warm blood begins to trickle down my jaw. I stare at my blood-stained hand first, and then up at Kealith in disbelief and fear.
There is suddenly a glass-like red wall between Kealith and me, and Queen Velnara's voice booms through the hall.
"Enough! Control yourself! "She yells, and I pull my knees to my chest as I press myself further into the wall behind me. Wishing to be able to disappear from the nightmare unfolding before me.
"Why do you hate me!? "Kealith then questions me, and I look up at him through the wall between us.
How do I tell him that I don't hate him? How do I explain to him that this was not my intention?? Just as I open my mouth to speak, I see Liriel behind him. She is smirking at the chaos, and realization descends on me like an icy bath.
She did this deliberately. She taught me the wrong vow.
