Nova's POV
Something drips on me and my face as I open my eyes a little gently, but I cannot seem to force my eyes open
My breath feels different, something so different in my chest
These past few days have taken a toll on my senses and I feel jaded as ever
I groan as I open my eyes and rub the liquid off my chest with my fingers to take a look as to what it really is
It's blood.

Narrator's POV
*Nova screams*
The whole castle awakens by Nova loud screams and everyone rushes towards Nova's chamber as swiftly as possible
Jezebel opens Nova's chamber door and see Nova sitting of her white bed with her upper boy drenched in blood, shocked and disoriented while she screams
"Nova!!!" Alfred rushes to her and holds her in her arms
"Oh lord!! Where is this blood coming from?" Jezebel searches Nova's bed as everyone panics
The servants run around to prepare washcloths as Nova cries in Alfred's arms
"Its..." Nova chokes on her tears
"What is it love, who did this???" Alfred panics
Nova points her finger up near the ceiling and everyone looks up in the direction of her finger
It is a human heart suspended from the ceiling with a cross wrapped around it.

Nova's POV
"It's the bishop's cross" Alfred says as he hold me in his arms and looks up in disbelief
"And his heart" I cry, "Brutally ripped out of his body" I howl
I have been paralyzed by fear as it shakes me to my core
"Ekk!!" Jezebel screams
"What now?!" Alfred asks as he tightens his arms around me, trying to protect me as much as he can
"THERE IS SOMETHING WRITTEN IN BLOOD ON THE MIRROR" terrorized Jezebel says as she shakes
"It's in norse language" Alfred exclaims
"I know what this says" Bjorn steps forward
As Kitty, Alfred, Jezebel , Lagertha and I look towards him with desperation in our eyes
"It says, Die For You" Bjorn says with a blank expression
