Editing CMU Chapter 03

= <span style="color: #FFFFFF !important;">Chapter Three: Wait of Survival</span> =
Poleen Juvukis rests in Ôlêum’s hunting cabin, her fragmented memories of Nindi’vilu’s flamboyant hunter mingling with grief for her brother Benê. At dawn, she treks east through pastoral orchards and fields, avoiding curious locals, until reaching Castle Hill, a ruined tower overlooking Nindi’vilu. Familiar sights—Sobôlum’s mill, Âbromô’s smithy, and her mother Ezeldu’s shop, Juvukis’ Bloom—stir her heart, but a lone horseman’s appearance sparks alarm. Poleen hesitates, torn between stealth and boldness, as townsfolk like Lorîtu notice her disheveled state. Spotting Âvorê’s wagon and two Notoholis Aprelêu horsemen heading toward Ezeldu’s shop, she hides her cigar box and prepares to fight, only to be stopped by Gibelê, bruised from his own encounter with the Notoholis. He reveals they hanged her, confirming her death and “Forgetting,” and warns that Ezeldu will be taken alive to Vitolêô’s prisons, urging Poleen to bide her time for a strategic rescue.
