THE MARTYRS

On a frost-kissed January morning, Mercy arrived at Saint Luke's Convent carrying a precious bundle—a child wrapped in soft warmth. Young and unprepared, she bore the crushing weight of motherhood alone, understanding too late that nurturing demanded far more than conception ever could. As a single parent without family support, she danced through life while her child clung to her back, a burden she could no longer carry. The guilt that accompanied her steps was suffocating; the innocent life in her arms deserved better than the abandonment she was about to inflict. In Abagana, everything changed that fateful morning when Mercy's desperate choice would reshape the lives of those bound by fate and sorrow.
