She suppressed her worry, got up to wash her hands, and looked up at the broken mirror hanging on the wall. The scar on her forehead was a shocking sight.

She reached up and touched it. It was hard to believe she had been so lucky to survive that.

Unfortunately, it had also left her mind… not quite right.

She didn’t remember where she came from or who she was.

The island’s shaman said she had snatched her life back from the sea god, and the price was that the path home was taken away.

She had forgotten her origins, so naturally, she didn’t know where to return.

Of course, the more scientific explanation was that she had hit her head, causing temporary amnesia. As for why it was temporary? Because she often dreamed of strange images.

The images were blurry and disconnected, often featuring different people and different life scenes that couldn’t be pieced together into a coherent event.

But one thing was certain: she seemed to have been married?

Although she didn’t remember, she still felt it was necessary to maintain some boundaries. Even if the local men were one and all well–built with eight–pack abs and looked tempting, she held back.

“Where are you?”

A young girl pushed open the wooden door and walked in with a familiar air.

“Alita, I’m here.”

“Quick, come with me. The chieftain is looking for you.”

“Okay, wait a second.”

She hurriedly let her hair down to cover the wound on her forehead and walked out.

Alita looked at her with envy. “You’re so pale. I can’t get any paler no matter how I cover up.”

Is it possible we’re not the same race?

Of course, Tatiana wouldn’t say that. Instead, she rephrased, “Fairness doesn’t equal beauty. In my heart, you’re the most beautiful girl.”

Alita was coaxed into blooming with joy, smiling so wide it revealed her white teeth. “You have such a sweet mouth! You really know how to coax people! If you were a boy, I’d definitely marry you!”

“Ahem, let’s go to the chieftain first.”

The two walked out together. The chieftain’s residence was in the very center, representing

power.

Across the entire island, the person with the highest status was the chieftain, followed by the priest and the boat captains.

She was very grateful to the chieftain. Without his permission, she wouldn’t have been able to stay and live here.

“If your face healed, you’d definitely be gorgeous! Let’s go find A’mu for some medicine, put it on, and pray for the sea god’s blessing to smooth out your scars.”

Compared to doctors, the local people believed more in the existence of the sea god. They would pray to the sea god for help with even the smallest things.

“No need, I think it’s fine this way.”

Aside from the large wound on her forehead, her face was covered in many fine scars, all from being cut by gravel. They hadn’t been treated well and had left faint marks.

She didn’t mind. Just being alive was a blessing; her appearance was secondary.

Soon, they arrived at the largest, most solid wooden hut. It was the chieftain’s residence.

“Chieftain, I brought Tatiana!”

“Come in.”

Tatiana walked in. The faint smell of herbal medicine hung in the air.

A stooped figure stood with his back to her.

“Chieftain.”

“Dr. Tatiana, you’ve come. Sit, cough, cough…”

The chieftain was very old, his face covered in wrinkles. He had been weakened by a recent cold and looked extremely fatigued.

Tatiana could see it was an illness accumulated over a long time. Without better medicine,
