"How are . . you . . here? I killed you . . " With the last of his life Fahir Sarhan al-Hassan looked up at his little brother who stood tall over him .

"You failed, I survived so that I would see justice for my family . "

"I see . . " He coughed a little his skin quickly growing ashen as he clung to the knife handle still stuck in him . The light blue dress shirt he had worn underneath his jacket was quickly dyed dark by his blood .

"Ya Abi . . I . . " Fahir Sarhan al-Hassan wheezed unable to get out whatever he wanted to say before taking a few last shallow quick breaths . The hands around the blade slightly slackened with the loss of intent, but remained on from the grip he had held onto it with with the last of his life .

Hakim al-Hassan knelt by his son as he placed a his hands on his son's head .

"I regret that it has come to this abnay . . I regret that I did not stop your brother when I first saw the signs . If I had maybe blood would not have spilled blood .

"I should have done something fifteen years ago when Mamud first came to me and demanded his inheritance . I could see that he desired the power to rule over others . I rebuked him and drove him away . I hoped that in time he shoukd come to see the truth on his own .

"While we may own the land, the people belong to themselves, we are not their masters . Every life belongs to itself . This is ultimately my failing and now my youngest son and hafid are left with mess . Please forgive me . " Hakim al-Hassan's face aged as he spoke, the sadness settling in deep creases, showing his almost 70 years .

Jari Maan al-Hassan pressed his hand to his side feeling where some light seepage had come through from his torn stitching .

"There is nothing you need forgiveness for, Ya Ab, my brothers have made their choices long ago . "

"Excuse me sir, can you help our friend, she was taken from here by a man not too long before you arrived . " A dark haired maid kneeling on the floor with a few other women spoke up .

"Jari, Jian Amal's wife has been caught into this as well, we have to help her . " Hakim al-Hassan shut his deceased son's eyes and rose .

"We are not in the position to do that, I barely managed to make it in here, there are over a dozen armed men, roaming the halls . " Jari Maan al-Hassan looked around the room . "Unfortunately we don't have the necessary force to provide help, we just have to hope she is unharmed . "

"That is unacceptable . "

"This is reality . "

"Hey this is Jian and I's room, don't just walk in here!" Chang felt indignant as Liang Ju-Long led their party into Amira's chambers .

"Wrong this belonged to my deceased wife . "

"Why are we in here? Chang looked at the men surrounding her and a fearful thought crept into her head as they had come into the bedroom . "What are you going to do to me?"

"What will happen will depend on your answer . "

"Answer to what?"

"You will leave my son . "

"That's not going to happen . " Chang glared at the back of the man's head . "I left once because of you and I won't do that again . I promised him that I wouldn't . "

"Oh that will be a promise you will be breaking today, no matter how . " Liang Ju-Long turned looking at her pointedly his sharp stare made her heart feel like it was sinking like a stone in water .
