Story of 2 Maidens
Special Chapter

The Chosen One, with a dead weight in her heart turned back to look at the land she once called home. She was sad to leave her friends behind but utter disppointment with the Evil Queen and the nobles left her with no choice but to abandon her home.

And when she thinks that there's no way out and all hope is gone, heavens took pity on her and presented her with a path to new lease of life. Bagged with her experience, she decided to offer her services to the ruler of a land where she can see hope and the possibility of a brighter future

As she requested to opt out from the Test, the Chief Examiner then decides to offer her a place among the nobles, but alas, with her heart already saddened and broken into a million pieces, she declined and decided to move on.

With one last look, and tears forming in her eyes, she bid farewell and prayed in her heart for the well being of those who are left behind and hoped that one day, they will be reunited, some how, some place... ...
