        we met the first time. On that day, it was snowing as well. I found
        Luxian wounded, broken in the snow just outside my shack. He
        used to be a heartless demon who had never even felt the warmth
        of his parents. I healed him, taught him how to love, and to be free.
        With me, he became the man whom I love. Those bittersweet days
        could never be returned now. That dagger looked the same. It was
        neatly polished and tenderly taken care of, obviously by Luxian.
        I pulled the dagger out of its sheath. I’ve already taken much, it’s
        time for me to give back. I no longer felt pain as I held the dagger
        to my chest. “Forgive me Luxian. From now on, you are free.”
              The first snow of the year fell.

              “Guys! I have an astounding story to tell.” A servant walked
        up to his peers.
              “Have you heard? Last night, his majesty’s organs were
        back!”

              “I’ve heard it too. There were golden sparkles all over the
        place! The witnesses said that it was almost heavenly” Another
        servant joined in.

              “Oh, oh! I was in the scene! We were at a meeting at
        twilight. Suddenly, there were these sparks that lifted the
        emperor  up.  It  flashed,  almost  blinding  me.  When  our  vision
        returned, his majesty was on his feet, back in his majestic form.
        Can you believe it? HE’S BACK! He opened his eyes. I thought that
        I ain’t be seeing those pair of formidable eyes again.” The other
        servants listened in wonder.
