Summary

She accepts his offer to join the Priests of Rathma, and he takes her to the Necropolis. Over the years, she studies the use of necromancy and academia. Many years later, now an adult, she is taken by Ordan to her village, which has been destroyed by cultists. Bodies of the villagers are present, which are implied to be the corpses of her childhood friends.
