ENEMIES OR ALLIES

Zoe gazed in horror as she fled back up to the Hous Residence. Villages were covered in smoke from the east to the west. Wails of mourners could be heard as high as up as where she was.

"This cannot be happening." She uttered in disbelief as she witnessed the effect of greed and wickedness taking over the once peaceful and prosperous land.

"Only a supernatural intervention could help us." One of the Xianghai men who accompanied her blurted out, making Zoe tilt her head towards him. 

"I know what to do. Take me to the rear side of the Castle." She instructed the coachman, who immediately obliged as he directed the horse to the direction of the Castle.

The Xianghai men who were with her seemed to look at her as if she had made a crazy decision but she didn't care.

As soon as she saw the Castle's structure, she asked that the carriage be stopped so she could go down as they are an eyecatcher to their enemies at that rate.
