Sentinel:

Are our lives predestined, like how Dor Bo's is? He had wanted to run away with his 'birth' father but his father was killed. He had wanted to run away with his adoptive parents but they committed suicide for him. He had wanted to run away with Ji Yin, but again fate plays a joke on him, turn out Ji Yin is his half sister. How cruel is that? Are the gods above having fun with their mortal puppets? But Dor Bo escapes their manipulations when he let go his hatred and vendetta against Dowager Empress.
