Corey spoke again, saying he was the most trusted person of Cornel's grandfather, and he knew all the darkness of the Garel Royal Family.
"Your grandfather was known as the man closest to the Mad King. He held a banquet, summoned all branches of the Royal Family, and then poisoned everyone at the banquet. As a result, the Garel bloodline was left with only your branch. To quell his atrocities, your father personally executed him, beheading him in front of the people. The body was burned to ashes, and the ash thrown into the ocean. His name became taboo, regarded as Garel's shame."
"I know..."
Cornel's body trembled slightly. These were memories he didn't want to revisit, the greatest shadow of his childhood. He had witnessed his grandfather's death firsthand, that blood-stained head flashing before his eyes.
"You know, Cornel, everyone has different thoughts. Some like sweet, some like spicy, some wish to live as people, while others are willing to be dogs."
