"Let me go!! Please!!" Chaerin crying as she was dragged further into the hot volcanic cave to the center of the mountain. Both of her hands are tied to her back. She's helpless. Both her parents couldn't help her out as they were locked in. 

The villagers are going insane in deciding the merciless sacrifice. It's must have been hard for them to survive these cold wather all year through. They barely got any food left and their only way to the other villages are also blocked out. 

Chaerin was dragged till the edge of the cliff. She's crying harder and harder begging for them to release her. But no one listen to her.

On the same time, somewhere else someone was looking at the foolish event. 

"Aren't you going to do something about it, brother?" a lady appears. The guy just sit one his couch silently watching through his crystal orb. "Foolish people..." the lady shook her head. Then the guy raise from his seat. He had enough watching those sick people. "Where are you going?" the lady asked but he never replied. "Aigoo... Hope he didn't make any trouble. Or the old man wouldn't let him live long." she utters.

Chaerin felt her body falls back as they pushed her off the cliff. More and more tears comes out as she falls down. The heat pierce through her skin and she felt as if her skin about to thore apart and she falls into the hot boiling lava.

"This is it... This is the end...." so she think as she falls deeper into the lava. "Gosh, I never knew lava can be this calm and warm before." she thought to herself.

WAIT!!! 

"I'm still alive?!" she opens her eyes. Indeed, she's still in the red hot lava. But why is she still alive and unharm?! All of a sudden, a whirlpool appears and pull her into it before she was transfered to another place. The ropes that tied her hands are now cut lose by someone as she regain her consciousness. Chaerin looked at her savior. He looks familiar. 

"Are you the one who save me?" she asked. The guy nods. "Why did you save me?" she asked. The guy then turned to his back and looked away to the white snow. Chaerin knows that they are still not far from her village as she saw the volcano mountian. But, within moments the volcano blows up and the lava went down and destroy the village! 

"NO!!!!!!!!" Chaerin was about to run towards her village but the guy stops her. "Let go off me! My family are still there!!!" she cried. 

"That's not for you to concern now. For them, you're just a dead person." he said. "And they got what they wish for." he continued. Chaerin stared at the guy in confusion. "Didn't they want to end their sufferings from the cold freezing weather? Their wish have been fulfilled. You should be thankful that you're still alive." he said and walks away.

"Wait!! Stop!" Chaerin calls him. And he did. "You said I'm a dead person now. So what should I do?" she asked him. 

"That's for you to decide. I only could make a deal." he told her. A DEAL?? 

In the end, Chaerin follows the unknown guy to start her new life.
