Chapter 1 - Coincidence Part I

This is my first try to translate one of my novels in English. So I was scared about doing mistakes. Please correct me!

Banners were raised, the fanfare was loud, and the citizens proudly sprinkled their cavalry with flowers. sounds of cheers and acclamations. Children were dancing around. and neat people played the drums behind the crowd, to announce our hero's coming after his majestic victory for his kingdom.

The huge door of the castle was opened. Other crowds of men were in systematic lines, their faces were slightly smiling with appreciation. The knight kneeled. The king moved the sword between his two shoulders to blessed his victory. The sounds of claps were like the sound of rambunctious ripples.

...

He entered his room. And he stripped his scarf off, then he sat down with plonk.

- Give it to me, Maroon. Give it to me!

Maroon leaned and busily come with a cup contained a strange liquid, and give it to his master.

- Ah

He sighed of relief after he has finished his cup. and add:

- These things are effective.

Maroon got the courage to comment:

- It is due to our kingdom's doctors. His Majesty chose the best-qualified doctors to serve you highness.

- This is fables.

He said carelessly. then he gave his servant the cup and add:

- Let me alone from now.

- This servant will obey.

After Marron left, he lied down on the chair.

...

In a greenhouse inside the castle, where leaves spread over the walls, it reflected the sunshine with green lights. A girl was sitting under a tree, taking its shadow as a shield. She was twisting herbs, putting them to a cistern. Then she used milling stick to smash them until they became like a grit, so she transferred it to the next basket where the whole powder was.

- Nawras!

A fluffy sound came close when an old woman in the age of fourteens went towards her. She extended her arms to give Nawras the basket which she carried. And to take that basket which was full of the powder. She fairly smiled and said hopefully:

- This is the last one.

Nawras nodded her head and continued what she was doing. So the woman went to continue her way with another woman who was waiting for her. Then whispered:

- Although she lost her voice, she is very smart.

The other woman who was waiting for her agreed:

- You are right Mrs Marwa. She was studying herbal medicine since her childhood, but she absorbed knowledge like a sponge.

- Ah! How pitty! if her mother wasn't living in the castle, she would have a bright future.

She took a glance at her with eyes which full of sadness and sympathy.
