“Have we met before?” Swan asked, and Gale frowned hearing that question.

It was late at night when Aria said that she couldn't sleep, so she told the guards to drag Swan out of her room and tie her up on a tree at the palace ground. Swan was so scared because it was a very dark night in the middle of autumn. The air was so cold, which only worsened the pain in her leg.
