What Happened to Aila?

A few hours ago going back to Marcus.

"We need to evacuate immediately."

Reese said to Marcus. He was still shaking from what just happened. His mind is at lost, he just lost his love, his life. Reese tried her best to calm Marcus down.

Reese handed him a wet tissue to wipe his face from the ashes from the explosion earlier. But he did not accept it. He was not in the mood to fix himself. But Reese insisted on it until Marcus finally accepted the wet wipes.

Marcus looked out the window as he ruggedly wiped his face. He feels like he does not deserve to live after seeing what happened to Aila.

Reese brought Marcus directly to the Palace. Marcus finally understood why Reese wanted him to fix himself. He is about to meet the King. How will he be able to explain it to him? He was not able to protect the Princess, the future Queen; the love of his life.

He went on his knees, crying with his head on the ground as soon as he saw the King.
