Gradual Consumption

Having parted ways from Re'Kha, Burmat Re'Shi walked through the streets, having hidden his appearance. He wore a couple of pads on his body, appearing bulkier than usual, also wearing a wig to seem like a different person.

As he walked on the road, Re'Shi watched a couple of people sprint past him. They were one of the men under his stepmother, in charge of watching over him. In order to make her children the rightful successors of the Burmat Re Clan, Re'Kya was doing everything in her power to weaken Re'Shi, both physically and mentally.

Moreover, to prevent anything from being used against her in the future, she was careful right from the start. So, not once did she go overboard, at least against him. But since she knew he loved Re'Kha, Re'Kya had planned to use her death to give him an emotional blow.
