“Please make my husband love me, even in his death.”
Upon the statue that grants wishes, Renier wished for the love of her cheating husband. However, in a bizarre turn of events, she accidentally died in his hands.
When she opened her eyes again, Renier had returned to right before she completed her wish. Though of all moments, it just happened to be mid-sentence, specifically after she spoke the word ‘husband’.
Wishes could not be changed or stopped midway, and in a flustered state, Renier blurted out the first word that came to mind.
“Please make my husband… you!”
As she was wondering whether or not the wish could even be granted, the statue shattered and an incredibly handsome man came out. Naked.
“Very well. I, the great Veldemer, am your husband from this moment on.”
However, according to the king’s decree polygamy is liable to 10 years of prison. Thus, while keeping things a secret, Renier is faced with the choice of either divorcing her cheating husband, or sealing Veldemer back into a statue.
