“Now I must do a few things, for now do your regular duties, Celeste is safe and sound as of now, but I want to secure the castle from any danger or threat.” I patted her on her shoulder and I walked towards the guards, Asiya did not follow me this time. “Elchrin, Anordy, how is it neither of you have noticed the people of Erena on our castle grounds?” There was silence, they sat on the benches on each side,  Their heads lobbed back slightly, could it be they are ignoring me, or maybe asleep. “I, as king Senya, order you to answer me.” I stared at them angrily as they still say nothing. I stepped toward Elchrin to shake him. “-There’s no point mi lord.” Barinors voice carries as he exits between them.

In whole honesty I’m quite frightened, who else in the castle was a traitor is there anyone I can trust at this point, I shake my mind away and back to the present moment, I shivered as she poured the boiling water into the metal bath, I undressed and got into the hot water, it was both searing and euphoric. I let the water take me under, feeling the heat all over my body, I shivered and pulled myself upwards, and I saw Asiya standing with her hand on her hip agitated, I wiped my face so I was able to see better. “What?” I asked as half my face was still underneath the water. “It wasn’t ready, yet.” She says, sighing. “I’m sorry, Asi, I’m just so, so cold.” I say looking up at her. “Where did he keep you anyway?” She asked, stepping toward the shelf, which held the w

He stood staring at his frozen mother with a heart break. "She didn't deserve this." I walked to his side and wrapped my arm around him and he did the same, he quickly wiped a tear from his eye before it fell. "What do we do, Senya?" He stood there in devastation trying to think. "I'm going to make him pay." I nodded, my father went farther than I'd imagined he would, it makes me wonder if Mave has any idea of what is happening behind his own doors. "I have to make preparations for a surprise attack. If they see us coming we might not have a chance, they have magic users and who knows how many." He sighed, rubbing the frustration from his temples. "I don't think they have many, my father hates magic users, they execute w

After I explained what happened she went quiet, and deep in thought. "It looks like a rune for chaos." She says quietly. "Do you see how it nearly looks like a star dispersing itself out with arrowheads?"  She pointed how each one of the arrows pointed outwards, and I nod gently. "So what is the meaning of chaos?" I am quite worried. "It could have many meanings, I don't know all that much about runes, but maybe my mother does." She began to turn back to the door and I grabbed her arm in panic. "No, I don't want anyone else to know about this." I replied in a hush tone. "Celeste this could be dangerous, I don't think it would do any good to hide it." Asiya scolded. "Ple

We fell asleep and awoke to the harsh sin peering through the window, I had to blink a few times before keeping them open. Senya sprawled out over the bed and his head still lobbed over my chest, his mouth open slightly breathing slowly. It was warm, I felt like a cat laying in the sunshine that was very content. Truthfully I didn't want to wake him, I wanted to hold him closer and fall back asleep without a care in the world. He began to stir, rubbing his head against my chest, and he slowly looked up at me. "Good morning." His voice husky from induced sleep. "Good morning." I whispered back, he kissed me lightly before pulling himself up into a sitting position. Today is the day we say goodbye, the day that puts our love on hold, until he comes back to me, my love. He went to the closet and began getting dressed in warm suede and leather and getting his chainmail and armor on. Everything is beginning to feel much more real, Senya is leaving to a war that would have never sta
