questions lucina's knowledge of haer's laws which she seems to lack despite having lived there for some time hackin steps in to address Garrett's query suggesting that Lucina can gradually learn about Ty and that it's never too late annoyed hawen asserts that Garrett Should show respect towards Lucina as Lucina will be the one bearing hak Khan's child despite her frustration Garrett manages to force a smile acknowledging that she understands turning his gentle gaze towards Lucina hackin assures her that he will provide her with a book about T's culture and laws and encourages her to ask any
questions she might have however Lucina hesitates to respond Due to her inability to [Music] read while hackin carries Lucina guiding her back she confides in him about her inability to read hawen reassures her explaining that the book is not written in Tara's language however their conversation is interrupted by the arrival of a guard who informs hakan about a tribal meeting hakin requests permission to leave and gently sets Lucina Down as hackin departs lucina's gaze shifts downward unexpectedly a voice emerges from behind inquiring about lucina's troubled expression it's gill who approaches her while seated Lucina inquires
about Gil's well-being amidst a bout of coughing Gill manages to assure her that he's all right he also expresses concern for Lucina regarding her fainting episode The previous day Lucina explains that she is feeling better now attributing her fainting to an excessive use of her healing power gilay appears puzzled as he had only recently learned about the side effects of such a divine power like lucina's Lucina herself is further perplexed as she doesn't view her ability as a divine power she recounts how as a child she discovered this ability after getting Hurt whenever she wished
to be relieved of pain she would find herself healed Lucina goes on to confide in jile that she has kept this power a secret from others out of fear that they might exploit her however she holds on to the hope that by revealing her healing power to hakon he will provide her with protection Gile acknowledges the genuine protection hakan would offer Lucina however as he envisions a Scenario where Lucina gives birth to haakon's child and ascends to the throne while Gil is coerced into practicing Dark Magic by Garrett he believes that keeping Luc 's healing
power a secret especially from hawen would be wise he advises Lucina not to place too much trust in hakan leaving her perplexed he raises the question of what might happen if hakin were to choose between Lucina and the interests of Tayar Jill assumes that for the sake of tayar hwan Might disregard lucina's importance nonetheless Lucina recalls hakan's prior assurances which reinforce her faith in him Gile however continues his attempt to manipulate lucina's thoughts suggesting that hackin might exploit her healing power Lucina viewing this as a positive aspect remains undeterred much to Gil's annoyance he finds
it hard to believe that Lucina is deeply in love with Hakin Jill wonders whether had he been the first to meet Lucina rather than hakan she she might have fallen in love with him as he indulges in this thought jilla's face flushes red and his heartbeat quickens still he persists in advising Lucina to keep her healing power a secret Shifting the conversation Jill inquires about the expression Lucina had earlier she confides in him that hawen plans to provide her with a book about Tayar but she is unable to read Lucina also shares her fear of

and languages from different kingdoms Titi emphasizes that there's no one else as intelligent as Gila and she Admits to feeling envious of lucina's opportunity upon hearing this Lucina asks if Titi also desires to learn Titi explains that due to family responsibilities she hasn't had the chance to pursue learning nevertheless Lucina persistently asks if tati would like to learn alongside her as she had already requested Gil to teach Titi as well this Revelation surprises Titi but lucina's smile reassures her that Learning together could be more enjoyable than going alone titty's Delight knows no bounds as she
states her strong desire for this expressing that serving Lucina is the most fulfilling thing she has ever done she also extends her heartfelt gratitude to Lucina Lucina experiences a sense of Happiness seeing titty's enthusiastic response deep in thought while walking gay recalls the moment when Lucina Expressed her eagerness to learn alongside him reflecting on it causes Gile to blush for him teaching reading and writing comes effortlessly he also entertains the idea that by growing closer to Lucina he might eventually have a chance to escape with her upon reaching the front door gilay comes to a
sudden halt he is taken aback by the sight of Garrett welcoming him There a Dar resting on a bed nearby Garrett proceeds to Signal the servants to exit the room leaving only the two of them gilea stammers questioning the reason for ader's presence with confidence anet explains that the queen mother is to be attended to as per the tradition of the late Queen's service although Garrett's statement is valid Gil raises a point of curiosity asking why Garrett has chosen to adhere To this tradition after a decade has passed Garrett's demeanor turns serious as she informs
gilay that Adar has regained her senses she explains that Adar spoke of the black magic that had caused chaos within the palace and insisted on summoning haakan Garrett realizes that the Illusions created by Gil's black magic will gradually fade from people's memories for those unaware of their Situation it might appear as if they had lost their minds and then fled however a dare case is different she managed to endure for the past decade without succumbing to this illusion Garrett speculates that Adar possesses some level of resistance allowing her to recall the actual events this Revelation
fills Gilla with fear but Garrett offers reassurance by revealing her plan she possesses a sedative that when Consumed induces a deep sleep and clarifies the mind she intends to administer this sedative to Adar through her food consistently she subsequently resolves to cease employing black magic on Adar opting instead to direct her efforts towards Lucina upon hearing this Gile promptly declines The Proposal however Garrett probes his rationale prompting Gilla to swiftly Concoct a reason he expresses concern that he's uncertain about the effects of his black magic on the people of Brian he worries about the possibility
of Lucina recalling the Illusions he's crafted and then disclosing them to hacken a scenario he deems unsafe for them Garrett takes Gil's explanation into consideration which brings a sense of relief to gilay consequently Garrett asserts that she must brainstorm an Alternative approach following the tribal meeting hakan wears a concerned expression teron inquires if something is a Miss prompting hacken to voice his anxiety about his mother's well-being in the queen's palace teron explains that his initial concern had been adair's insistence on remaining with lakan's body but she ultimately complied with Garrett's guidance without any trouble learning
this huckin feels a Sense of relief Tran Goes On to share that Adair appears to be in better condition now and he speculates that her previous mental distress might have been due to living in close proximity to lakan's remains hakan then informs Tran that the tribal meeting has decided to relocate lakan's body to mazarick following the birth of the Guardian Dragon teron teases hakan remarking that this means hakin should spend more time Visiting lucina's Palace despite this hkin Kong Canon lucina's well-being remains leading him to consider waiting until he receives the results of lucina's Health
assessment before making any hasty decisions abruptly their conversation is interrupted by the arrival of the priest who carries news that he needs to share with hakan regarding Lucina this information catches hakan off guard meanwhile Gile is reviewing The assessment papers of Lucina and Titi he Praises titti for her exceptional results while acknowledging that Lucina still has much more to to learn Titi attempts to reassure Lucina reminding her that this is her first experience with reading and writing however a sudden gust of wind sweeps through causing the papers to scatter into the air Lucina feels something
enter her eye and attempts to rub it out Gile intervenes swiftly Preventing her an offering to assist by blowing away the debris from her eye from a distance how observes Gill's close proximity to Lucina igniting a surge of anger within him burning with anger hawan demands to know what Gil and Lucina are up to startled by hawkin's voice Lucina and geli turned toward him in shock hacken still seething with rage approaches them menacingly Lucina and Gil are gripped by fear as they remember the last time hacken was furious with Gilay and had grabbed his collar
determined to avoid a repeat of that situation Lucina anxiously tries to explain what happened but her words come out incoherent fortunately Titi steps in as a translator clarifying that there was dust in lucina's eyes and Gile had helped her remove it despite her struggles to explain Lucina also stresses that there is nothing romantic between her and gilay desperate to make Hain understand Lucina grabs his robe and pulls herself closer declaring her love for hakan and pleading with him not to misunderstand the situation hearing her explanations clearly hakan finally relaxes and says he comprehends the situation
he initially thought Lucina couldn't understand tor's language but now realizes she can't read at all hakan appreciates lucina's effort to learn and commends her for finding a good teacher in gilay turning to gilay haken request Ests that he teach Lucina and Titi to the best of his abilities to which gilay agrees estimating it will take 1 month in a somewhat teasing tone hakin mentions Gil's lack of Battlefield prowess but Praises his intelligence placing his trust in Gil as a teacher as they shake hands hain's demeanor turns serious as he warns gilay that he won't tolerate
any inappropriate behavior towards Lucina releasing Gil's swollen hand Hawkin suggests wrapping up the Lesson as evening approaches he then carries Lucina and announces his intention to take her back to her Palace they leave gilay behind as they depart on his way back GUI can't help but feel a tinge of jealousy that Lucina chose hakan over him when he returns home he is taken back to find Garrett there meanwhile hwan informs Lucina of the results of her health assessment he explains that she is simply lacking in nutrition and is weak but should recover Quickly Lucina wonders
if her healing power has contributed to her Swift recovery hakin continues to elaborate mentioning that her endurance and quick recovery will help her withstand the fire energy from him however he expresses concern for her wellbe Lucina reflects that despite her healing ability her body may not be completely healthy hackin tells her that the priest will prepare a remedy to restore her energy and they will monitor Her progress he explains that in two months time his period of prosperity is expected to begin and he too will need to take the remedy to control his fire energy
confused Lucina asks about the period of prosperity and hakan explains that it's the time when the dragon race has the highest chance of having having descendants due to the increased Aura of fire he gently touches lucina's face and advises her to assess her health after 2 months to proceed to The Next Step as Hawen prepares to leave Lucina suddenly grabs his robe and asks if they can sleep together hacken blushes deeply at the request Lucina clarifies that she doesn't want to sleep alone for the next 2 months and simply wishes to have him by her
side at night she emphasizes that it's just about sleeping together reluctantly hacken agrees and they find themselves on hakan's bed with Lucina Overjoyed to have him close however hacken can't help But feel frustrated Lucina then timidly requests if she can hold Hawkins hand while they sleep and blushing asks if they can share a kiss emphasizing that it will be just a kiss before hawen can respond Lu Ina leans in closer and hakan struggles to control his desire and so they share a passionate kiss but suddenly hakan overwhelmed by desire pins Lucina down he gently Strokes
her hair but quickly regains his composure stepping back he acknowledges that what They did was wrong maintaining a safe distance Hawkin suggests that they should sleep in separate rooms his face blushing he insists it's the best course of action for them at the moment hacken also mentions that kissing is prohibited during the next 2 months Lucina can't help but ask why to which hawan explains that he won't be able to control himself if they continue to kiss Lucina still hopeful suggests they could at least Hold hands but hakin firmly states that they should not sleep
in the same room disheartened Lucina questions if for the next 2 months they will simply stare at each other to which hacken reluctantly confirms saying it's the only way to ensure their safety hearing this Lucina can't hold back her tears and asks hackin why he decided this now after they had held hands and kissed which he seemed to accept frustrated hawan suggests that Lucina tie his hands if She wants he hands her a band and instructs her to tie his hands so she can do as she pleases however Lucina finishes tying hack's hands hacken then
tells her that she can do whatever she wishes slowly she draws her face closer to hackins as if she's about to kiss him meanwhile in Gill's room Garrett who has been waiting for him urges Gill to use black magic on hakan Garrett argues that despite hacken being a dragon and a great king he is Also a TI and and thus susceptible to Black Magic Jill tries to remind her of the dangers of using black magic on a king and the risk of Discovery however Garrett views the period of prosperity as their opportunity as it signifies
an increase in violence she suggests that if hacken spouse were to disappear in an unfortunate accident the elders would advise him to remarry her Garrett insists that gill performed the black Magic with the target being to make hecken accidentally kill Lucina though Gile is trembling and refuses Garrett promises him that it will be the last time and afterward he can live as he pleases reluctantly Gill begins to prepare the ritual for the black magic back in hawkins's room Lucina continues to kiss him noticing his rapidly Beating Heart Lucina decides to stop but hacken suddenly declares
that he can't hold back any longer In an instant he frees himself from the band on her hands and pins Lucina down on the bed leaving her bewildered with his face all flushed hackin gazes at Lucina struggling to contain himself but he regains his composure and pulling away from Lucina realizes that things shouldn't go any further he swiftly turns around and shouts to his guards to fetch the unbreakable chain used for the guardian Dragon Lucina can't help but burst into laughter surprising Hain who Can't believe she's still able to find humor in such a precarious
situation in Gill's chamber he reluctantly readies himself for the Black Magic Ritual his thoughts occupied with a secret plan Garrett notices his hesitance and inquires about his intentions Gile is reluctant to resort to Black Magic when hawen is with Lucina fearing it could endanger her so he contemplates an alternative approach to ensure lucina's safety he then explains That if he were to simulate a heart attack and faint the magic would be dispelled by repeating this act hakin would become as alert as a deer Garrett remains puzzled asking what the purpose of this plan is rising
to his feet gay declares that he will modify the magic equipment and retrieves a bundle of candles he explains that these candles are crafted from his own blood and if he uses them the Magic's effect will persist even if he loses Consciousness Due to a heart attack Garrett questions why he didn't suggest this earlier Gile leans in closer and Whispers something to her prompting a pleased reaction from Garrett after hearing Gil's explanation the following day Lucina engages in a conversation with puka reflecting on the previous night when she used a chain to ensure hakan's slept
peacefully this Revelation prompts puka to burst into laughter puka then broaches the topic of whether hacken and Lucina will indeed abstain from intimacy for 2 months reminding Lucina of her desire to Bear hack's Child Lucina explains that hackin advised her to strengthen her body first because despite her healing powers she still lacks physical strength hearing this explanation puka offers his perspective suggesting that it might be the Earth Energy within her body that weakens her in a counterintuitive twist having a child with haken might actually restore Her energy usina still struggles to fully grasp what puka
is trying to convey puka adds that a child imbued with the energy of fire could potentially stabilize her energy and even if there were issues with nutrition as long as she ate enough there should be no problem lucina's comprehension Dawn and she suddenly becomes excited at the prospect leaving puka visibly shocked by her reaction seeking reassurance Lucina inquires about the Potential dangers of carrying a dragon's child puka clarifies that while it may pose risks for the average person it should be perfectly safe for her he goes on to explain that during pregnancy she won't be
able to utilize her healing powers as they will automatically be directed toward protecting her from the fire energy emanating from the child in her womb hukah then raises a critical question even if she loses her ability to heal is she still willing to have a Child with hacken Lucina follows up by asking if her healing powers will return once the child is born puka confidently responds with a resounding yes usina can't help but exclaim why puka didn't share this information with her earlier despite never explicitly asking him about it Lucina excitedly departs from her room
eager to share the news with hackin that she no longer needs to rely on pills and waiting as her healing powers now ensure A safe pregnancy alleviating hakan's concerns inside Hawkins chamber the servants deliver the remedy from the priest as planned noticing that the servant has brought something else along hawan inquires about it the servant explains that teron suggested decorating the room given lucina's frequent visits so she brought scented candles and flowers hackin responds with a smile even acknowledging that tron's ideas can Prove useful at times with that settled hacken proceeds to take his remedy
while another servant arranges the flowers and candles neatly on the table as he sips the potion designed to suppress his fire energy hacken reflects on how he should find today a bit more bearable than yesterday once the servants depart hakin gazes at the flowers taking in their fragrance and wonders if Lucina will appreciate the thoughtful gesture Lucina arrives at hack's chamber and the guards Promptly inform hakan of her presence as Lucina steps into hawkin's chamber her face lights up with joy she approaches hackin eager to share her news however Hawkins stands there with an unusual
expression and suddenly he roughly seizes lucina's hand causing her pain this prompts Lucina to call out his name in bewilderment without uttering a word hakan then pulls Lucina closer and firmly grasps her waist as hawan withdraws his hand from Lucina he gazes At the shattered accessories on his hand an unusual sensation coursing through him his expression wrestles with inner turmoil as he grapples with what's happening to him Lucina becomes alarmed by hawkin's abrupt response her fear evident in her expression observing lucina's reaction hakin is caught off guard and quickly apologizes explaining that he's not feeling
well today and suggests that she should retire to her Palace for the night unbeknownst to him The black magic from Gil's candle is taking its toll even huan himself struggles to comprehend why he acted so harshly toward Lucina leading him to ponder whether the fire energy within him is intensifying despite it being 2 months early returning to her Palace Lucina finds herself in her chamber lying in her bed and contemplates the recent unsettling encounter with hakan she's puzzled by hakan's uncharacteristic Behavior which left her feeling frightened unable to sleep due to her lingering thoughts Titi
suggests that she try immersing herself in holy water to find some Solace and ease her her restlessness Lucina decides to follow titi's advice and Ventures to the holy water after immersing herself in the calming Waters Lucina emerges feeling rejuvenated she even playfully showcases her swimming skills to Titi on the other side of the holy water hawan arrives With the hope that submerging himself in it might help calm his inner turmoil however he pauses upon hearing lucina's voice echoing nearby turning in the direction of the s he's greeted by the sight of Lucina wearing a radiant
smile while Titi assists her in drying her hair the image captivates hakan and he can't help but be entranced by the beauty of lucina's Joyful expression yet his demeanor suddenly Shifts influenced by the Black Magic being cast by Gilli From A Distant location while casting the magic spell Gile provides an explanation of his black Magic's workings he clarifi ifies that his black magic can only conjure Illusions as long as he maintains the incantation when he loses Consciousness those under its influence will snap out of it Gile further elucidates that by combining the spell with the
candle the affected person will perceive Illusions Whenever they sense someone's love initially these Illusions are brief and easily overcome but over time they grow more potent and challenging to distinguish from reality at the moment hacken is ens snared in an Illusion featuring Lucina and Gile which Stokes the fires of his anger in a burst of Rage he approaches Lucina menacingly Lucina is taken back by hack's sudden presence but as their eyes meet something within hakan snaps him back to Reality he comes to a sudden halt visibly shocked Lucina trembling with concern asks if if hackin
is all right or if he's been hurt even Titi hides herself behind a pillar sensing the tension hackin attempts to explain that he thought Lucina had fallen prompting his Hasty arrival seeing something a Miss with hawen Lucina presses further inquiring about his well-being hackin however avoids her gaze and claims that he's merely a little exhausted assuring Her that the holy water will help him recover recalling that she has something important to share with hakan Lucina attempts to broach the subject however hakan abruptly turns his back to her remarking that it's late and instructing her to
retire for the night he then directs Titi to escort Lucina back to her Palace leaving her perplexed by his sudden Behavior even hacken himself is left feeling unsettled as he continues to experience inexplicable anger in Lucina's presence he begins to wonder if he's losing his sanity meanwhile jilli still immersed in his black magic elaborates on the lasting effects of the spell he explains that the emotions it generates will persist even after the illusion has dissipated gradually nurturing negative sentiments within hakan towards Lucina Gill asserts that there's no need to physically harm Lucina as hakin will
naturally distance himself from her Gile believes that this Approach won't harm Lucina physically but will gradually erode her relationship with hakan he speculates that Lucina will eventually grow disillusioned and leave the palace seeking him out to depart together seeking answers and troubled by his own behavior hakan decides to consult with the priest sharing his concerns about the strange changes he's experiencing the following day Lucina and Titi are engrossed in their lessons With Gil as their teacher however Lucina appears to be lost in thought her mind drifting away Gile repeatedly calls her name and when she
finally snaps back to reality she's taken aback concerned Gill instructs titty to retrieve another book from the library and seizes the opportunity to speak with Lucina privately he inquires about what's been bothering her expressing his worry and asking if something has transpired between Lucina and haakan Lucina's eyes well up with tears as she struggles to hold back her emotions observing her distress Gil asks if hawen has been angry with her or if he has mistreated her in any way Lucina with a sorrowful expression reassures gilay that it's not the case instead she reveals that hawen
has been consistently in a foul mood lately gilay experiences a wave of relief that hakin hasn't physically Al harmed Lucina however he attempts to empathize With Lucina by suggesting that hack's behavior can be erratic akin to that of a child Lucina however becomes defensive fiercely protecting her beloved's honor she asserts that hawkin's recent mood swings are a result of the approaching period of prosperity during which he doesn't feel an optimal condition affecting his temperament Jill then proposes that Lucina takes a break from seeing hakan for a while Lucina hesitates concerned about missing him Jill pauses
for a moment and then suggests that she write a letter to hackin as an alternative means of communication allowing them to stay in touch without meeting face to face lucina's face instantly brightens with enthusiasm at the prospect of writing a letter to haakan upon completing the letter Lucina requests skill's assistance in reviewing it however as gilay reads the letter he appears somewhat taken aback he carefully rolls Up the letter and assures Lucina that it's perfectly fine offering praise for her effort and telling her that she's done an excellent job Lucina is elated to hear his
words particularly when Gila adds that hakan will appreciate it she holds hope that hakin will be pleased when he receives her letter in Hawkins chamber the priest arrives to ass his condition he reassures hakin that his instability is merely a result of the approaching Period of prosperity and poses no life-threatening danger still hakin seeks further clarification prompting the priest to elaborate he explains that as the Flames intensity grows stronger it becomes increasingly challenging to control one's emotions particularly when harboring special feelings for someone this is a common experience for every everyone hakin acknowledges the priest's
explanation and grants him permission to depart as the priest exits hain's Chamber a servant enters bearing a letter from Lucina hakin accepts the letter with curiosity wondering about its contents the servant inquires whether she should light a candle he grants permission for the candle to be lit as hackin begins to peruse lucina's letter he becomes perplexed by the jumbled words and phrases she has penned finding the writing somewhat amusing he even shares a laugh at her unconventional style however as he Continues to read the Insidious effects of the black magic emanating from the candle start
to take hold further distorting the words on the page and transforming the once loving letter into one filled with hatred with each passing moment the Illusions envelop hawen more tightly making it increasingly difficult to resist finally unable to contain his growing agitation hakan lets out a loud exasperated shout to quell the turmoil within this sudden Outburst prompts the Guards stationed outside his chamber to rush in expressing concern for hain's well-being trembling and visibly distressed hackin discovers that the letter has been torn to shreds leaving him bewildered Upon returning to reality upon seeing the letter in
tatters on the floor the guard wonders if there was something arai with the letter hacken then picks up the torn pieces of paper pondering why he had reacted so strongly in Anger the news of Hawkins anger upon Receiving lucina's letter quickly circulates among the servants leading them to assume that Lucina has penned something that has ignited hakan's Fury Titi who happens to be nearby and overhears the gossip is taken aback by the Revelation particularly because she is aware that Lucina had sought Gill's assist assistance in composing the letter a day later tiaty rushes toward Gill
her expression angry and agitated Gile inquires about the reason for her Urgency noting that it's not yet time for their study session Titi insists that he speak with her before Lucina arrives so Gill leads her to a secluded spot and asks her to explain what has transpired still carrying an air of frustration Titi confronts Gill demanding to to know what he did jile is momentarily stunned his mind racing with thoughts about whether Titi has discovered his use of black magic however TD continues revealing that Hackin became angry while reading the letter from Lucina hearing this
Jill breathes a sigh of relief realizing that the issue pertains to the letter itself Titi questions why gai didn't inform Lucina when she wrote something unconventional and he explains that while there were indeed some spelling mistakes the content of the letter was entirely sound Gile further elaborates that he believed haken would be deeply moved by receiving such a heartfelt Letter imperfections and all and thus saw no need to make Corrections TTI then speculates whether Hawkins anger stemmed from lucina's lack of writing skills while Gill wonders if his black magic might have influenced the letter in
some way to their surprise Lucina suddenly emerges from behind wearing a sorrowful expression as she addresses them revealing that hacken became angry when reading her letter in a state of panic Titi questions why Lucina ventured There alone to which Lucina explains that she couldn't locate Titi prompting her to come looking for them her countenance grows even more despondent as she speculates on why hakan might have become upset over her subpar writing skills taty promptly reassures Lucina insisting that her assessment is mistaken and emphasizing that hackin is not the type to react that way Jill joins
Titi in comforting Lucina offering his agreement with titty's words in that Moment Lucina begins to believe that there might be a misunderstanding as she places her trust in hakan Gila however Pond the reason behind his agreement given that his ultimate goal is to sew doubt between Lucina and haakan hoping that Lucina will turn to him instead he wonders if it's because he genuinely doesn't want to see Lucina hurt out of the blue Lucina announces her intention to speak with hakin gilay is suddenly filled with worry expressing concerns About whether it's a good idea given hakan's
perpetually foul mood of late Lucina however remains Resolute asserting that she's determined to talk to him because she has something important to convey Titi lends her support to lucina's decision encouraging her to engage with hawen and clear up any misunderstandings between them just as Lucina is about to depart jilai unexpectedly seizes her hand preventing her from leaving Lucina turns to him Puzzled by his actions in a nervous tone Jill reminds Lucina that they have their study session scheduled for today Lucina hesitates for a moment torn between her desire to speak with hacken and her commitment
to her studies taty steps in to reassure Lucina promising to tutor her after her conversation with hakan and urging her not to worry jile feeling helpless understands that there's little more he can do to dissuade Lucina Lucina expresses her gratitude to Titi and then Rushes off to hakan's Palace watching her depart gilay begins to contemplate the need to follow her in his chamber hackin finds himself pondering recent events despite the looming period of prosperity he's been feeling unlike himself lately he recalls losing his temper but the reason behind it eludes him frustrated and seeking answers
hacken decides to discontinue his remedy suspecting it might be the cause yet the problem persists his Frustration grows as he grapples with the mystery suddenly a memory Sparks in his mind the servant who had delivered the candle hackin jumps to his feet and begins to Pace as he tries to piece together the puzzle he remembers reading lucina's letter with the candle nearby and starts to wonder if there's something a Miss with it just as he steps out of his chamber he encounters Lucina rushing toward him surprised Hawkin inquires about her presence Lucina then reveals that
she has something important to share with him quickly scanning their surroundings she leans closer to hackin and suggests that they move inside Lucina believes it's best to keep her healing ability a secret from anyone else hawen sensing the urgency agrees to follow Lucina now in hawkin's chamber they sit together near the table with the scented candle still lit hackin then tells Lucena to speak her mind and she Nervously begins to voice her concerns she mentions her worry about hawkin's recent bad mood and his need to take the remedy due to the impending period of prosperity
Gathering her courage Lucina makes a heartfelt plea for hawen to cease taking the remedy revealing her own healing ability and assuring him that there's no need for concern however Huckins response leaves Lucina bewildered he remains silent but something appears to be stirring in his Mind upon hearing about lucina's healing ability observing hakan's expression Lucina hesitantly inquires why he appears that way unfortunately hack's thoughts are ens snared by the dark magic manipulated by Garrett through gilay all he can discern now is Lucina apparently confiding in gilay huan's frustration mounts and he accuses Lucina of treachery and
deception Lucina upon hearing this is both perplexed and fearful while attempting to calm hacken Her words falter but her efforts yield no success the dark magic further exacerbates hain's anger and he now envisions Lucina alongside gilay with an Abrupt movement hawen Rises teetering on the brink of attacking Lucina outside Hawkins chamber geli appears concerned as he approaches however lucina's scream suddenly startles gilay and the guards gilay rushes into Huckins chamber to find Lucina lying on the ground He promptly instructs a guard to summon assistance turning to Lucina he inquires about her well-being Lucina appears terrified
and conveys to Gile her concerns about hakan's unusual behavior Gile on the other hand explains that hack's aggressive tendencies can Surface during periods of prosperity and advises Lucina to keep her distance nevertheless Lucina worries that hakin may pose a threat to others and expresses a desire to use her Healing powers to Aid him Gil however holds a different perspective believing it's too risky for Lucina to use her powers in hakon's current state despite their potential Effectiveness out of the blue hacken still ens snared by the dark Magic's influence erupts in Rage and seizes gilay by
the collar fearing for the safety of others Lucina utilizes her restorative abilities while while attempting to bring hakan back to his senses she persists in channeling her Healing powers toward hakan gradually guiding him back to a state of bewildered Clarity Lucina finally perceives that hakin is regaining his composure which provides her with relief however having expended a significant amount of energy she succumbs to unconsciousness due to her depleted power a worried expression crosses hakan's face as he pers what transpired and contemplates lucina's role in helping him the servant and the Priest eventually arrive but one
of the attendance raises suspicions hakan notifies the priest of his intention to accompany Lucina to her room and instructs the priest to attend to Gil instead after hakin and Lucina have exited the room the dubious servant discreetly dispatches a message using a carrier pigeon subsequently the priest delivers his findings to haken confirming the presence of dark magic within the candles hakin also inquires About lucina's well-being prompting the priest to inform him that Lucina has sustained a bruise overwhelmed by guilt hackin makes his way to lucina's chamber to assess her condition inside Titi apprises him that
