As I I entered my office, I spotted Scott immersed in reading books borrowed from the palace library. The weight of the curse bore down heavily on me, and before I could even fully close the door, my strength gave out and I collapsed. "Your Majesty!" Scott's alarmed voice rang out as he swiftly moved to lift me from the floor. "Please, wait here. I'll fetch the doctor immediately," he urged, his brow furrowed with worry as he laid me down on the couch.

I grasped his hand urgently, stopping him in his tracks. "No, not the doctor," I managed to insist, feeling the strain in every word as Scott helped me settle onto the couch.

"Call for the elder," I instructed firmly, my breaths coming in labored gasps. The pain in my chest throbbed with each heartbeat, a stark reminder of the curse that bound me to this immortal existence.

"Let me see," he said softly, placing his hands over my chest and closing his eyes in deep concentration. Minutes passed in silence, each one feeling like an eternity as I awaited his assessment. Minutes had passed before he eventually broke the silence. "I'll ask the mages to prepare another set of potions, Your Majesty," he said. "For the mean time, please take some rest. Your body has to be strong for you to be able to hold it inside you for much longer."
