Liam returned to the Eastern Empire's royal court.
He resigned from his conquests to return to the fort,
Only to find the monarch's stormy face – with a temper quite short–
After hearing about the girl from the mountain hut.

Liam had downright disobeyed His Majesty's order.
Because of his greed, the innocent had a life much harder
Than before – he showed not an ounce of ardour
Towards the people like the girl from the mountain hut.

After listening intently, knowing about his every deed,
The monarch deduced that Liam knew only greed.
But even death was easy punishment for him, he studied–
He must bring peace to the ancestors of the girl from the mountain hut.

A proclamation was soon sent around.
The traitor, Liam, has finally been found.
He had been sent to work menial jobs on ground.
"Good," thought Lydia, the girl from the mountain hut.

Seth narrated this news, as Lydia lay in bed.
She had just recovered from a cold and a burning forehead.
She sat up straight, her decision clear in her head.
Ready, was the girl from the mountain hut.

"Seth, I have made my decision, after thinking a lot.
About every single thing, I have carefully thought.
My position as a Magical Clan descendant–I want to give up my spot."
Said the girl from the mountain hut.

"I am no more special. I'm now just... ordinary."
"Whatever you say, to me, you're still a fairy."
"In any case, Seth, I plan on staying ordinary.
I'll just be Lydia, just the girl from the mountain hut."

" 'The girl from the mountain hut' was never my identity.
But, that was how you first addressed me.
So now, let the Westlands and I... Let's both be free,
And I will continue being Lydia, the girl from the mountain hut."
