Forgotten Wife: Let the Traitors Kneel Down by Patricia Maradiaga

Chapter 88

88 The war against darkness ​ Maya opened the book to the first page, Cassian was attentive to what she was going to say, however, she did not speak, instead she got up from her chair.

_ Where are you going? _I want to show you something.

Maya pulled a chair next to Cassian, pushed aside what was on the table and showed him the first page of the book, her slender fingers moved smoothly across the page showing a map of all the kingdoms, it was similar to the map they had hanging in Barto's office, but there was something different about this one, there was one more kingdom.

_This was supposed to be the world before the elves turned away from the humans and hid their kingdom.

The elven kingdom was much larger than any of the other kingdoms, Cassian asked.

_That's a kingdom too big, how can they hide it? _I have no idea, elves don't talk much about their secrets.

Maya's fingers continued to move across the map until they reached a part where there was only darkness, said darkness was located in the kingdom of Laios.

That caught Cassian's attention and he asked.

_ What does that darkness mean? _According to this book, that darkness was born from humans, it was greed, evil and hatred in its purest form, back then they mentioned that darkness a lot, they said it was the weapon that humans used to attack the elves.

_ Why did they attack them? _Because of the magic that the elves possessed, it is seen that their magic compared to that of humans is purer since we are beings born from human evil, but the elves are born from light and therefore their magic is light.
