Since there was no way to prove to everyone that she was from the future and she couldn’t return to the future, Esther had no choice but to give in to King Raynold, Lord Emmanuel, and Zussorender's request to help her, and she sees that as a chance to know what was truly going on with her and what was happening which is confusing and crazy.

Esther let Zussorender check on her and treated her with his magic and spells since they all thought something must have messed with her brain that made her think she was from the future and she must return. All the test that were run on Esther by Zussorender shows that she is perfectly fine and nothing is wrong with her but still, they all continue to treat her since Esther remains on her word that she is from the future.

Realizing that they won’t stop treating her with magic to help get her memories back and heal whatever must have messed with her brain that made her think she is from the future which isn't working since nothing is wrong with her, Esther decided to act like she is the past Esther of theirs so they could stop treating her and then let her go.

Lord Emmanuel, King Raynold, and the others thanked Zussorender for his help when Esther stopped saying that she was from the future and now started acting like she was the Esther of the past. They all thought Zussorender was able to heal Esther not knowing Esther was only pretending so they could give her freedom and lift her ban of not leaving the palace. So they could believe her more, Esther even lied about what made her unconscious, and that must have triggered the dream that looked like the future with her living in it like it was reality.

Esther's ban was lifted and she was able to roam around the palace and get to play with the princes, the princesses, lord Emmanuel, King Raynold, Hawk, Zussorender, and every other person she wanted to play and be with but everyone noticed something was off about Esther. They all knew Esther to be the one answering their questions but now Esther seemed to be the one asking questions about things, people, history, and places that they didn’t even know some and some had been recorded lost and dead in history. They all always asked Esther why she was asking about those things and places, and Esther would always lie that she saw them in the dream.

Esther thought it was everyone who believed her lie about being the past Esther of theirs not until Redrick came to meet her while she was seated alone thinking and told her he knew she was pretending to be their Esther but he would help her return to her home. Esther wondered what it was that made Redrick not believe her lies but was glad that at least someone believed her and she excitedly kissed Redrick to thank him.

Redrick was shocked that Esther kissed him but was so happy and excited that he asked Esther why she kissed him and if she had now become his girlfriend. Esther smiled and told him that he kissed him because she was glad that he didn’t think she was going crazy and that she could not become his girlfriend. After all, she was from the future and would return but he should not worry that Esther would be his.

A MONTHS LATER

Esther and Redrick had visited places and kingdoms to find out if there was a change anywhere that could give her a clue of what was happening and why she couldn’t return but she found nothing because everything was right in order. Esther even visited different wizards in different places with Redrick to see if she could find out what was going on with them helping her because she must return to the future but none could help her find answers or return. Esther visited Marcelo's tomb with Redrick, and could still find him lying in the coffin asleep. Esther visits the shapeshifter towns with Redrick to go see Nelson, Benjamin, and Ryn to tell them something is wrong but they all send her and Redrick away calling them intruders and saying they don’t know them. Esther even went to the dark world alone and went to Embryum castle to see everything intact.

It was a busy month for Esther as she was visiting places thinking they could give her a clue as to what was going on apart from her knowing she is from the future so she could return to the present but nothing and no one was able to help her. Esther returns to Axrax with Redrick since everything fails.

But during those times Esther was trying to find out what was going on and why she was stuck in the past, Esther was always having a dream where he saw Redrick, the frozen sea, and the hands banging the ice beneath the ice. Esther knew the dream couldn’t just be a mere dream if she was having it repeatedly and she tried to find out what the dream might mean but she couldn’t even with the help of many wizards and Zussorender.

Realizing there was no way of finding out what was going on, why she was stuck in the past, how she got there, and about the dream, Esther gave up on returning to the present since there was no way she could return and everything she had done had failed. Since nothing was working, it made Esther had a doubtful mind about her being from the future and she thought she might be the present Esther in the past who mistakenly ventured into the future where Marcelos existed which made her believe she was from the future whereas she is the past and everything that happened with Marcelos was nothing but dreams. Esther thought Marcelos and everything that happened was too good to be a dream but now she can’t even prove that they are real.

Esther decided to continue with her life with the belief that Marcelos and everything that happened are dreams since she can’t prove they are not, and at least she now has everything that she thought she had lost in her life back in one piece. Esther couldn’t forget Marcelos and the things that happened but she was ready to live a happy life with her family and wouldn’t mind the dream anymore.

2 MONTHS LATER

Esther had now been living her life happily as the princess of Axrax with her family and loved ones forgetting everything about Marcelos and everything that had happened and she stopped minding the dream she was having as she was enjoying her time with the princes and princesses going out and visiting places.

Something strange has been happening to Esther a month ago but she has been ignoring it. Esther had been hearing a voice that kept calling her name from time to time since a month ago but she had been ignoring the voice since he couldn’t recognize the voice. Esther had even tried to find out why she was hearing the voice and where it was coming from but she couldn’t and that didn’t stop her from continuing to live her life happily.

King Raynold decided to go out to hunt in the dangerous forest near Axrax and he decided not to go alone. King Raynold decided to go with the princesses, the princes, Hawk, Zussorender, lord Emmanuel, Hemdal, and the palace guards and told them all to be ready.

On the day they were all going to hunt with the great King, everyone was ready with their arrows and bow except the palace guards and Hemdal who were holding their swords to protect the great King and the others. They all left the palace on horses, holding their bows, wearing their quiver full of arrows at their back except the great King's quiver full of arrows that was held by the head guard, to the forest to go hunt.

They were all on horses while hunting together in the forest with their bows and arrows having fun but Esther drifted away from the others. While hunting, Esther heard someone called her name and she looked in the direction the voice that called her name came from and saw someone far from her standing close to a tree looking in her direction but she couldn’t identify the person. Esther looked at the others to see if they saw or heard the person calling her name but they all seemed to be lost in whatever they were doing like nothing was going on and still Esther heard the person continuously calling her name.

Esther looked at the person who she saw back trying to identify the person even though the person was far away from her and the continuous calling of her name made her stare at the person and then suddenly she felt enchanted by the voice but Esther didn’t know when the horse she was on suddenly began to walk toward the person. Esther continued staring at the person as the horse continued to walk toward the person and her name which was still being called sound like it was Inside her head that she was being called. Esther lost consciousness to reality and her focus was only on the voice and the person as the horse kept moving forward.

Upon getting closer to the person, the horse suddenly fell Esther to the ground with the bow (she was holding) and arrows (inside the quiver she wore at her back) and ran away. Immediately Esther fell to the ground by the horse, Esther regained consciousness to her surroundings, realized she had drifted away from the others and she stopped hearing her name being called. As Esther stood up, she quickly picked up her bow and fixed an arrow to it knowing the forest was dangerous, and then looked toward the direction of the person she thought was calling her name not to see the person anymore.

Esther looked around for the person in the forest as her arrow was fixed in her bow ready to shoot any animal that came at her but she couldn’t see the person and then she suddenly heard her name being called from all directions. Hearing her name again being called from all directions, Esther began to look around the forest circling in one place to see who it was that might be calling her but then she suddenly saw Redrick appear out of nowhere in front of her which startled her.

Esther was relieved to see Redrick and wanted to ask him if he was the one who was calling her name but she stopped when she noticed the clothes the Redrick who was standing in front of her wore were different from the ones the Redrick whom she left home with together was different and that made her suspicious and wanted to step back but before she could Redrick stab her heart with a sword.

Immediately Redrick stabbed her heart, Esther was shocked that Redrick could do that and she coughed out blood. Esther wondered what was happening again now that she had begun to enjoy her life moving on she would now be dead as she fell to her knees with Redrick who was still holding the sword hilt. Esther heard Redrick say out loud to her before she blacked out “you need to wake up now or else they are all going to die”.
