In the drizzling rain, Mac Thuy swallowed a gulp of poisoned wine, one hand clutching a tattered, tasteless packet of medicine, the other gripping the crown prince's hand as she looked up and smiled sadly. She gazed into her son's eyes, her words laced with blood that flowed from the corner of her mouth, staining her pristine white mourning clothes.
"My son... in this life, everything your mother has done has been for others. Even death is not something I can decide for myself. It is my fate. Remember, if you ever love a woman, you must give her the chance to choose."
Mặc Thủy waited until the Crown Prince nodded before finally letting go of all her strength and collapsing. Her eyes widened as she gazed at the blinding white rain, her fingers reaching out into the pitch-black void, murmuring,
"Phong, you've come."
The rain grew heavier, the damp ground carrying a faint, melancholic scent of medicine, like a tear welling up in the corner of her eye.
