As the anniversary of Sotchai's downfall approaches, a mysterious figure emerges, whispering prophecies of Sonaya's return and the restoration of magic to its rightful heir.

“Who is the Witch of the two? What gender did Sire say?” The Master requested in a voice so horrific that the kids became even more scared.
“None of us is a witch. We have grown without knowing or practicing magic all our lives.”
“How old are you?”
“I am fifteen.” Millan spoke up.
“I am twelve.” Muye also responded after hesitating for a while. She wanted not to answer but the faces alone of the men could not let her.
“Yes, my Master, it’s the girl, her age matches the night struggle.”
“No sir. She’s mistaken. She has not yet even made eleven.” Millan realized they did not have to say the right age. But it was too late. Realizing how late he was, he signaled her to run as he tries to escape.

MUYE AND MILLAN: THE QUEST OF BLOOD AND HURDLES

Walking into the room, Souhee slump-sat on her bed bouncing along it. She felt drained out of her every energy. Tears that she had held back for long since she witnessed the eyes of her closest of people gorged out before her, streamed down her rosy cheeks to her petite sharp chin. She tasted the bitterness of her pain and anger in her tears. The sea was not salty enough compared to her tears taste. The fire that was burning deep was just as hot as burning coal.

A touch that she did not mind at first, calmed her anguish inexplicably. Her tears stopped flowing and that's when her senses jolted back to her mind like a lightning. She was supposed to be alone in here, now what -rather who was in her room beside her. Fear engulfed her as she did not want to turn to see him. Her senses screamed that it was a man.

As turmoil was residing in the palace, in the cave, a smile of real joy crept onto the face of the cloaked lady Mil Hi. In her mirror she was looking at some particular person in the palace. Her joy seemed to be coming from the person she was seeing.

"Finally! Finally, I got to find you. My son, I have found you. I love you. It's sad that we can't be together now but we will after this mission is done." The person in the mirror replied and affirmed her words. She continued. "We should search for your brothers as well. Okay?"

The family reunion was not yet complete but the joy was still visible and felt as well.

"I want to make you some food. When we find your brothers, I will surely make you the meal." Tears flowed down her smooth white skin as she was so thrilled to find her son. Even though only one for now, at least.

"Mother, how can we break that cell you have been locked up in for all this time." The person in the mirror asked.

"She will open for me. First protect her, the rest will follow." She calmy answered.

The smile never left her red hearty lips.

Back in the palace, Muye was still making sure no one was watching as she wanted to sneak into the room of the girl she saw in the conference room. Until now she did not know that the girl she had seen was the princess and supposed cousin from her Aunt Nagjari. This should have been a family reunion if in good terms but this was not the circumstance for it.

Souhee turned fast with a smile on her gorgeous kissable lips hoping to see the person she hoped for. But as the world has it, cold water washed over her as she saw an unfamiliar face. It was handsome though. Love is blind right, she could not accept or more rather realize that he was more handsome than her lost lover, Dong Ji.
