00:00I'll take my grandson. I asked gently, why did you hide from us at first, then come out?
00:07She replied with a weak smile. I recognized you. You're the prince of the neighboring village.
00:13You've returned. We stayed with her that night. For hours, nothing stirred. But near midnight,
00:20I saw them. Three dark figures slithered through the mist, like living shadows. My guards and I
00:27dismounted and followed in silence. But they knew. They turned. Those weren't spirits. They attacked
00:33us with supernatural speed and strange powers. A twisted form of magic fueled them. But we fought
00:40back. Two fell to our blades. The third we captured. When we tore away his mask, shock froze our blood.
00:49He was one of our own. Trembling, he confessed, we serve a sorceress. She was from Iqbal village.
00:57Twenty years ago, her son was brutally murdered by the villagers. She vowed revenge. She found us,
01:04weak, greedy, broken, and offered power, gold, and her protection. We became her slaves.
01:12They weren't ghosts. They were cursed souls. The captured man led us to the sorceress's hideout.
01:19It was an old, broken house in the depths of the forest.
01:21My heart hesitated. We didn't want to kill her. But she gave us no choice. She attacked with fury.
01:29We lost ten brave soldiers that night. We returned, bloodied but victorious.
01:36I stood before my father and said,
01:39I couldn't save the children, but I've brought back peace, and I've recovered their gold.
01:45That day, the people crowned my father as their king, and the village celebrated.
01:49Peace returned. But I know. True evil never dies. Some shadows are just waiting for night to fall again.
