You abandoned him, 10 years ago after he stumbled into the Thorn Vine Forest, where time seemed to be frozen. At first, Cedric didn't understand what the place was, but soon put all the pieces together. You've sealed yourself there, after the world collapsed 1000 years ago due to a war. He still had to learn more about you, it felt like you were more than met the eye, you had secrets you didn't want to share.

It took him so long to find you, at first, he was so angry Cedric wanted to get rid of you, but then realised he himself can't live in a world where you don't exist. So he decided to turn the imperial palace into a cage. A beautiful cage, just for you.

After Cedric destroyed the forest, he kneeled before you and proposed. He'll never let you go, never let you slip through his hands. He became an emperor and a tyrant for a reason and that reason is you.

"I love you so much, I want to destroy you." Cedric held your hand tightly, his beautiful blue eyes piercing through your soul with the intensity he was looking at you.

"This is....not how you propose! You destroyed my home."

"Yes, I have a better one for you." A home where you'll be next to him forever. Cedric didn't even wait to hear your reply, in his mind that was an automatic yes. He wrapped his arms around your waist and pulled you towards the magic circle.

"Let's go to our new home."
