After Nicholas had long left, Shiloh began to sob. "Mother, I cannot sleep." Said Kevin,rubbing his eyes with his tiny hands. "Come here." Said Shiloh, wiping her tears away. "Did that man make you cry?" Shiloh chuckled. "No son. He makes me happy." "Then why are you crying?" "Did you really cry to see me?"No, I only said I miss you." "Is that the real truth or are you telling me lies?" "I swear that is the truth." Shiloh smiled. She gave her son a kiss on the cheeks. Then told him a lovely tale to make him sleep and he did finally sleep. Early in the morning, King Stephen woke up and saw that Carmen was not besides him. He went to the bath thinking he would find her there but still did not find her. He took the bath, slightly disappointed. When he was done, he put on his clean, grey coat and grey trousers,then placed his crown on his head. He went to the kitchen and found no one, but there was a good smell of something baked, perhaps bread or buns. He went to the dining

"Mrs Miller is my mother, she has asked me to help her with her duties as she is very ill to come." "Oh. Well it's nice to finally meet you Lilly. Your mother always talked about you." "Good things I hope." Said Lilly. "Yes good things. Please don't be alarmed by my wife, she seems to love meat, i am used to her. Can you prepare two more turkeys. I am starving." "Yes my Lord." Said Lilly. The King returned to the dining room, Carmen was finished with her meal. She took her plate to the

Nicholas paid Shiloh a visit, he found her with Kevin. They exchanged greetings and hugged. "When did Kevin arrive?" Nicholas asked. "His father brought him this very morning. I went to your house but I did not find you." said Shiloh. "Forgive me my love. I was at the palace. I wish I could install some sense in my brother. He is become sloppy. Its disgusting." "My lord, you need to show your power. Then he will respect you. Your word will be final. You told me that he suggested new laws, but you never told me which laws." "He suggested that the old laws to change. That women must be equal to men." "Equal in which way?" "That women must also attend schools when they are supposed to be building their homes." "I think that is an excellent suggestion. Not all women want to marry and build the home, others want to build as well as be educated." Nicholas frowned. "My love but that is not how my father got his power." "My love, you should accept new change and be your own type of

The following day early in the morning, one of the servants that had been helping Jordan arrived at the palace. Alex that his father had passed on. The king organized a burial that very same day. Back in Aota. Alex was still on the training ground, when a servant came to him and gave him the letter. He recognised the servant. She had been helping his father, but he never bothered to ask for her name, he never bothered to ask all those servants that were helping Jordan their names not even as a child. They came and they went but he was not interested in knowing any of them. The servant left even before he could ask her to give him her name.

"Rita,please help me."he said. The prophetess made a way to let his brother through. Rita was often mistaken for a witch as she loved to wear long black dresses, black eye shadow, black lipstick, black bangles as well as black long hair. "Put him on the flat ground." Rita commanded. Gideon did as he was told. Rita opened one of her kitchen drawers, then grabbed a bottle of medicine and returned back to where Alex was. "This medicine will help ease your pain."
