He would keep me safe

I trust him

To prove that I did, I turned e Hall

I didn’t look back

I should’ve looked back

I did as he asked

I shouldn’t have done what he asked

I climbed the small hill and turned to hell

Dawn did its best to push aside the littered with blades of frost My heart was a lump of snow by the time I ascended the front entrance

It was the hardest thing to ask of o back

I didn’t know if I’d ever be able to forgive hi happens…

I shook

Pausing on the stoop of the Hall, I glanced fleetingly behind me

There, on the horizon, was the faint outline of a black horse and its rider disappearing into the woods

Jethro was gone

I should never have let hio

I should’ve run in the opposite direction

I obeyed because I trusted him

I should never have trusted hi

In two days, my world would end
