I’M FEDORA’S APPRENTICE

As Haitao turned to leave, the room seemed to exhale, the oppressive tension lifting ever so slightly. Stepping out of the mansion, Haitao felt a renewed determination. He glanced back at the mansion, glowing warmly against the sun, before continuing to walk. The gravity of Amelia's situation weighed heavily on him. But it also fueled his commitment to seeing Amelia through this ordeal.

The morning air was cool and crisp, a stark contrast to the emotional heat of the mansion.

As Haitao got into his car, Haitao's mind was a whirl of thoughts. He was a healer, but today, he felt the burden of a guardian. Haitao thought of the General, a man of immense strength, now grappling with his deepest vulnerability. It was a side of him Haitao had never seen, and it deepened his respect for the man.
