I left a deep sigh, as I remembered the day I leaned back in my chair and then looked towards Celesta who was watching me intently clearly engrossed in the story and waiting for me to continue. She has always been a curious little thing, I thought to myself as I continued the story, " queen mumbled out, 'Cursed, my daughter, is cursed. Cursed by the mark of death.'' I am not sure darling but it appears so. Only your brother can tell us for sure, knowing his knowledge of potions and magick.' King Theodor explained to his wife.' I, I need to see my daughter. Let me talk to her maybe I will be able to help her.' Queen Sophie, pleaded to her husband as she tried to walk into the royal infirmary but her husband held her back by her shoulder.' I am afraid I can't let you, my dear. You can't help her, not without knowledge of what is affecting her. The least we can do for Celesta right now is let her rest.' King asserted as his golden locks fell on his face.Queen Sophie lightly pushed aw

" Old Owl Lake? What is it?" Celesta asked interrupting my retelling of the past." It's a valley with a large lake where an old owl spirit lives. You may say it's its turf." Sir Elijah answered " Does not sound that bad." Celesta commented. " It will if I told you that if someone tries to cross the Old Owl Lake valley and the Old Owl spirit catches them. It asks them three questions and kills them in a very gruesome way if they are unable to answer even one of the questions." I informed making Celesta' pupil wide."What?!! Kills them just for not being able to answer a question!!" Celesta exclaimed." Exactly, now where was I before you jumped in, oh yes, Ralph just told me that we would have to cross Old owl lake if we take the shorter route and I gave the most reasonable reply one would give after listening to that, ' Have you completely lost your bloody mind!!! You call crossing Old owl lake a small problem like it's a minor inconvenience and not a death wish!!!'' Will you calm

- Knock!! - Knock!!, a loud knocking sound came from the front door, pausing me. Celesta and I, both looked at each other with alarmed looks on our faces, wondering who was it. Sir Elijah noticed our startled expression and informed us, " My apologies, It must be my companion. There is no need to be alarmed."Then he got up and continued, " Excuse me, but I will be back in some time. Please until then continue with your story without me." Sir Elijah, left through the front door and as soon as he did, I couldn't help but grumble, " he brought his companion here. I thought, I especially told him to come alone and be very discrete about it."" There must be a reason behind it, he wouldn't just bring a companion without the reason." Celesta reasoned with me." There is no reason enough to risk your security like this. It's just incredibly careless and disrespectful on his part. " " If you are so offended by it, then go out and talk to him. Complaining to me about my uncle wouldn't help.

( re-telling of past)' hahaha, clouds of disguise ready to fly, who says that.' I mocked Ralph.' One who actually found out a way to cross the valley without being shredded into pieces rather than sitting on a rock doing nothing.' Ralph sneered at and I just laughed it off. ' I will not lie, little brother, you outdid yourself this time but will this cloudy smoke be able to conceal our whole chariot from the view of spirit.' ' Yes, it will. This smoke has high density and is quite stable because it is more solid than it is gas.'' huh? How does that answer my question?' I asked in confusion.' Well, by that I mean this is not see-through, it is quite opaque. If anything you should worry about it is how will you drive the carriage. Plus, this gas has a constituent, which does not enable it much movement. So it will help us appear more like a regular cloud and less like a smoke rocket.' Ralph explained.' Sounds good. So, what are we waiting for? Let's do it! ', I said. Now surrounde

'Ralph!! Ralph!! come out!! We have landed!!!' I shouted for my brother to come out of the carriage.After a couple of seconds, Ralph finally staggered out of the cloud of smoke while dragging the storage box behind which was still producing the smoke. ' Why are dragging it with you, I finally was able to escape the smoke by getting out of the chariot and now you are bringing it back for me.' I took some steps back while yelling at him.He just shook his head and muffled out, ' No, No, I am just_-Coughs-' and then he bend down with his hands on his knees and took some breaths. Finally, he stands upright again and then kicks the storage box to the ground that had still smoke clouds coming out of it. The liquids spill on the dirt and slowly start seeping into it. Once the liquid disappears, Ralph walks to me while adjusting his coat and says, ' If you want to solve a problem, you should always dig at its root, rather than hacking away its leaves and stems.'I just rolled my eyes at hi

( Back in the past)Swallowing some air I finally made my way inside the hall. It was filled with people, some dressed very extravagantly while others were very modest. It was quite easy to tell that this was quite a global event. I looked around trying to spot a familiar face but it was so crowded I wasn't able to. I roamed around looking for Sir Elijah and mistakenly called out some strangers resembling him.After what it, felt like an eternity passed. I finally sat down on a chair and dejected, ' There is no way I will be able to find him here.' I murmured to myself as I took a sip of some red wine handed to me. "Jude?! Is that you" I looked behind me in pleasant surprise to find the man I have been looking for. There stood Sir Elijah with a confused look on his face."Sir Elijah! " I exclaimed as I stood at once to face him."Wow, it is you. No offence young man but I never took you to be interested in potion and science you always strikes me more of a sword man. That's why I am q

" What?! but why will I not come with you." Ralph argued with me now irritated. " Because who will drive the carriage back home safely? You are not planning to leave it here." " Well, and why don't you stay and drive carriage home back safely and I go with Sir Elijah. " " Because I was the one who took oath in front of King, not you, kiddo." " Don't call me that I am adult more than you to be press-" he growled at me when Ralph got cut off." Enough!! with two of you! This is not the time to fight. my niece needs me, and I will not be late because of two of you decided to throw tantrums." Sir Elijah shouted, finally losing his cool. " Jude is right, Ralph. You must stay and take a back carriage home this time from a safe route. Where there is not an entity sitting and waiting to eat you alive." Sir Elijah snatches the vessel from Ralph's hand."Now here, Jude, let me show you how it is supposed to be done."Sir Elijah took a deep breath opened the potion bottle and took two drop o

(Back in the past)I stood there my eyes trained toward Celesta's room waiting patiently. The infirmary was unreasonably quiet and empty. There was not a doctor or nurse in sight nor any patients, which was incredibly strange as the infirmary was opened for every royal staff - maid, workers, soldiers, and even nobles from time to time. So not having anyone around in the infirmary is quite unnerving, 'Is there a particular reason behind it? it must be related to Celesta?' I decided to inquire to the King." Your Highness, is there a particular reason for the infirmary being so empty? or is it just a coincidence?""Yes, we have decided to keep information regarding Celesta's state hidden. As to not create chaos among the general pricers. I would also suggest you do the same. It's best for the kingdom and Celesta."I nodded at King's explanation understanding his point of view. That's when suddenly Queen Sophie erupted from Celesta's ward. I automatically straightened my back preparing
