Chapter 41

• "I can't recognize you anymore, and the more I stare at you, the more I wonder if you are my son. What had come over you? I don't want to believe whatever the shaman said until I hear from you. Jaden, tell your mother what is going on!"

• She appeared so heartbroken, as if I had done something strange and dreadful. My father was shaking his head in regret and sadness; those dark eyes of his were peering intently at me, and I couldn't even find words to say.
