Saying it again made the meaning clear. But I found it hard to believe. I had put everything into the competition.

Until the end, I was unsure. I badly needed that 150 thousand silver coins.

All I wanted was to bury my daughter. In her short life, I wanted her to have at least something nice even though it was a Aurora had brought me immense joy.

I felt really regretful towards Aurora, knowing I didn’t give her the care and attention she should have.
