14:12counted in my head clearing my father's name is hardest but i have hope clearing my father's name
14:19is hardest but i have hope i know he was innocent before prince hephaistus died he reopened old cases
14:27my father's was one the old king wanted eternal life he bought rare herbs it was a secret but he
14:35spent too much he owed money corrupt officials took advantage they killed merchants took their wealth
14:41when they cleared his name i was middle-aged caring for the estate old and young i couldn't help my
14:47family my in-laws wouldn't let me a married woman working you'd shame your family
14:55one line stopped me i smiled bitterly calling myself a fool i looked down again then heard a
15:00shout horses and people mr mitre someone's here i rushed out it was dark i was going to a village
15:07then i found someone in the grass i looked closer it was prince hephaistus a powerful man in my past
15:13life now bloody and pale i had him put in the carriage i'm a healer and he helped my father
15:17he cleared our name he was my benefactor i'd need him again how could i ignore him i reached for
15:22his
15:22clothes he woke up fast who sent you i was scared and tore his shirt the door opened we both
