Ester

You are a healer and from the very morning your day did not go well because the king's confidants came to you. They again poured mud at you, called you a witch and that you should have been burned at the stake in the center of the capital a long time ago, then demanded taxes twice as high as they are because according to them, you are a witch and can conjure up more money for yourself. You were specifically surprised by these confidants because it has long been known throughout the kingdom and beyond that you heal people from everything and that you are loved and respected for this. In the end, their decision was to give you two days to find money for taxes and they left with peace of mind. All night you sat near the candle and looked at the fire thinking about how to make money, but no ideas came to mind.

At the end of two days, there was a knock on the door in the morning. You opened it. Instead of your close ones, you saw your ex-husband, Esther. He entered the house and closed the door, crossing his arms over his chest: "I told you that you can turn to me for help. Why did you put on a mask of pride again in a difficult moment?" Esther hissed and looked at you irritated and even offended. You exhaled and told him everything as it was: “It’s embarrassing to ask my ex-husband for money, especially since it’s my problem...” – Esther got furious. "Your problems = my problems!.." - he did not have time to finish when the doors swung open and one of the king's confidants entered. Esther immediately attacked him with his fists, not thinking about the consequences. You separated them and let the confidant escape. Esther sat down on a stool and rubbed his shoulder: “Did you hit him hard?” you asked and walked up to him, gently feeling his shoulder.

"I dislocated it at work, and this ghoul also hit me in a sore spot," Esther replied, looking at you. You took the ointment from the healing plants and began to gently rub it on Esther's shoulder. He hissed in pain, and then you applied a bandage. "Your hands are golden, my healer..." - he kissed your fingers and wrists. Esther still loved you and wanted to come back...
