  I immediately ran to find my aunt. They were still back to where I left them. When my aunt saw me, she was about to scold me for running, but seeing the look on my face, she held back.  “Dear, what’s wrong?” “Where’s the carriage you took to get here? I need to get back to Thalia immediately.” I told them. “You’re leaving already?” Fred interjected and came forward. I nodded. “It’s Viex, my other contracted spirit.” I held my head as I tried to remember the last words that he told me. “He told me that he was in Thalia. And I feel it. He’s in trouble.” Fred nodded and called for a servant. “Get my carriage immediately.” “But, sire, with all the carriage pa

 I can’t believe this! They locked me up AGAIN! Just after they read the letter, they thought it would be best if I sit this one out because they still think that it can somehow be a trap. They don’t want me to be a part of it because they thought it would be best if I never appear in front of King Ferius. Ever.I have to admit that the first day that I was locked up, I screamed and cried myself to sleep in frustration. I even started picking on my nails because of the anxiety that it gave me. Viex, on the other hand, was able to recover and it was his comforting and assuring words that my sister is well that helped me sleep that night. He and Custard took turns that night watching over me as I sleep. Today is my third day of being locked up. But I still have no idea what their c

 I fell on my butt when a carrot hit me right on the forehead. I rubbed on the sore spot and expected Custard or Viex to come running to me.But then I remembered that they weren’t there. I sighed solemnly.Nate stretched out his hand in front of me with a laugh. “Sorry. I thought that you would be able to hit that one too.” I grabbed his hand and allowed him to pull me up. “But you know? You hit 9 out of 10. I have to say that I am impressed.” “Thanks. Can’t say that my forehead is that happy though.” I said and I changed my grip to turn my whip back into a sword. “Well, it is good that you’re back. At least you can continue with your training.”

 I went back into my room and changed into a clean shirt before I headed to my study desk and wrote down the names that Nate and Ren gave me. I just about finished writing their names when I saw the little box that Ace gave me.I almost forgot about it. I was too preoccupied with worry to even be bothered by the fact that Ace gave me a gift. But instead of grabbing the box, I just looked at it. Ace said that I should open it as soon as he leaves. My eyes narrowed in suspicion. He never gave me a gift before. Why even bother now? And the last thing that he said to me regards it was very alarming as well. Why can’t I open it in his presence?It’s not a bomb, right?I poked the box with the feather pen. 

******[KINGDOM OF TEREAU]********Viex and Ace finally reached the other end of the hidden passage. For Viex, it was a long and agonizing process because he could feel the elf prince glaring at his back to hurry. It wasn’t Viex’s fault. Kaya was taking his sweet time floating around them.As soon as they got out, Viex was more than happy to see a friendly face. Kellar helped them out by removing the covering of the wall. Ace was dusting his clothes and giving the younger prince a look. “First, you made me wear those cheap and obsolete armors. And then, you made me crawl into a very narrow secret passage. What’s next? You’re going to make me act polite?”Kellar was taken aback at his words. “Aren’t people suppose to be polite in the first place?” He asked. It wasn’t sarcastic. He
