Unlike most, Amber wasn't attracted to Arad due to his perplexing strength, how he helped her, or anything else like the other wives. It wasn't even money as she expected. Instead, Amber found herself in a strange place where most of her world either revolved around Arad or was influenced by it.
When she first met him at the guild months ago, he seemed like an awfully discourteous and disrespectful brat, but his skill quickly shattered her confidence and showed her weakness. In a day, he turned her from a skilled sorceress who drinks a lot to a drunkard who happened to know a few fire tricks.
How did she finally find the courage to unleash her elemental flames? Arad. How did she get a Fire Spirit body? Arad and Zephyr. How did she end up mastering her fire magic? Arad. And how did she get a chance to both train with Nar and a free invite to the elemental plane of fire? Arad.
The closer she got to Arad, the more the world seemed to bend around them and twist in strange ways.
