As he couldn’t do anything, Tae spent his time thinking of what the fairy meant about the clue.

He’s smart, but its just unfortunate that his brain isn’t working properly right now.

He looked into his bag, trying to look for something he can entertain himself with.—

It was all familiar things, but then his hand held some paper thingy that was inside the pocket of his bag.

He doesn’t remember putting anything there.

He quickly pulled out the paper, and it looks like it was placed there for a long time ago already.—

It was folded neatly, like it was actually planned.

He didn’t like the nervousness he’s feeling in his heart right now. But out of curiosity, he slowly unfolded the paper.

His hand flung onto his mouth, covering it and stopping himself from bawling.

Tears couldn’t stop falling down his eyes. He thought he was so tired for that already, but now, now as he read his mother’s letter, he couldn’t help but feel a pang in his heart.

“She knew all along but she didn’t tell me because she know I’ll feel anxious...”—

He was shaking in tears, and it fell right onto the paper. I created stains that no one would know how much emotions were stuck in there.

“Mom...I miss you so much...” he muttered under his breath.

Oh how he wish he could still feel the warmth of her hug right now.—

He held the letter close to his heart as he cry everything out.

Everyones safest place, comfort zone, and resting ground would always be the love of a mother.

And it was very unfortunate that Tae lost the same mother twice.

How cruel of fate.—

Legs pressed near his chest, he leaned his head above it.

“I’ll make sure to give you justice mom, and I’ll also make sure that its worth saving me.”

He spoke as tears fell, “I hope you know that I’m glad that ur my mother too.”

Sun down from the horizon, it was around 11 in the evening.

Tae was already sleeping — well, everyone was already sleeping in their tents.

Some soldiers were awake to guard their territory, its like changing shifts.—

The light of the moon shone in Tae’s face, and he was woken up.

He knew that the tent front opened, and it now closed cuz the light disappeared.
