When Adara had arrived at the garden picnic, Dogn confessed his feelings for her and asked her to elope with him. Adara rejected his proposal and told him that she did not reciprocate his feelings. Dogn didn't accept her answer, he became angry, he threw her to the ground and said If he can't have her then no one can.
Dogn forced himself on her and left then left Adara there broken and disheveled. Dogn had already been in contact with Era, the queens spy, beforehand and told him to stay away during their picnic day and had told him about his plan to elope with the queen. Era being of aristocratic background always hate the thought of a commoner become his queen and didn’t protest Dogn’s plan. However, when Dogn didn't get his way, he quickly contacted Era and told him to change the story of the incident, to change the narrative, Era once again complying with Dogns plan in order to get rid of the soon-to-be commoner queen.
The next day the spy reported back to the king that he had seen Adara and Dogn sleep with each other. The king furiously confronted Adara, who broke down and told the truth. But the Dogn said that Adara liked him and that she seduced him. The king doesn't trust him at first, but as proof of their affair Era testifies on behalf of Dogn.

Meanwhile Akilah was unaware of any of this. She had been away in the forest near the castle with Ernest gathering a wood and resources Ernest needed for to create weapons. The day before Adara execution and Akilah still hadn't come back. Adara fearing that she will never be able to give Akilah a proper goodbye, wrote Akilah farewell letter; detailing everything that had happened to her. She managed to bribed one of the maids with a necklace she had been gifted from the king; the maid agreed to deliver the letter to the young boy that worked with the blacksmith, to Akilah.
The day of the execution arrived and Ernest tells Akilah that a woman had delivered a letter to her last night while she was asleep, Akilah recognizing the handwriting on the letter began reading it eagerly. However that excitement quickly turned into devastation as she realizes what had happened, she tells Ernest what had happened and they both swiftly left to the capital, only for them to arrive just to witness Adara’s execution.
Akilah begged the executioner for her to keep Adara's head and body, the executioner being a close acquaintance of Ernest says that he cannot give her the head as it will be speared on the castle wall but is willing to give her the body. Akilah; devastated and broken agrees to it. Ernest offered to help her bury the body, but Akilah rejected his help, she took Adara’s body home and buried it by herself.
Enduring this whole ordeal Akilah loses grip on her insanity, and out of sheer desperation made a deal with the devil.

Explore the summer before her senior year that triggered the domino effect of Elizabeth's emotional and psychological breakdown that lead her to take her own life. This is the prequel to the main story, Petrichor and was never intended to be made.

I decided to release this first because Petrichor is undergoing a full rewrite. In the meantime, I'm writing a side story called Mourning Glory that takes place between the second and third act of Petrichor.
