Towards Zerem

Myrym was not really going to sell her son as a ploy. That was never her intent. What she wanted was to ensure his safety above all else, and it was better that he had everyone by his side than to oppose him.

She knew that this prophecy was talking about Ariael, but there was the undeniable fact that Nasiah was also someone who fulfilled those requirements as well. He was, after all, the so-called other half of Ariael, whatever that meant or could have meant.

It was obvious why Forenus spared him so long ago because he knew of the prophecy and the type of power that Nasiah could bring. The rebels were never going to let someone like that go so easily. He was one of the only chances to fight back.
