Chereads / Slave of the Sun / Chapter 19 - Episode 19

Chapter 19 - Episode 19

'Dear King Sol of Talkita,

It's been a while. I suppose you'd have to forgive me for not telling you the whole truth despite taking care of me for a long time. You deserve to know.

As I write to you, I'm staying with the Kroll royalty. They're nice people. They're taking me back to my home, where I come from.

I know a lot of things about me may confuse you and make you wary but I'm not a threat.

You see the two moons up there in the sky? I'm one of them. The dull one. Mother says I was born just a hundred years ago. For a hundred years, I stayed up there. Growing and learning. I watched the planet from up there and was always curious. Mother said one day, I would go down there but she always said it with some sort of sadness. I didn't know why then but now, I know.

One day, I was unceremoniously tossed out of my home by a force known to you as the cosmos. I descended in the land of elves. My mother birthed the first elves before her ascent back to the sky. They were the night elves. Being my mother's daughter, I'm also an elf.

I was new on the planet and didn't know anything. I was kidnapped by another set of elves, the sun elves, and used for a sadistic ritual. It was the origin of my bad luck. All the people that performed the ritual died so I tried to return home.

I couldn't find my way. Try as I might, I couldn't locate my way back to the forest of the night elves. So, I left the continent and started to wander. My bad luck led me to the desert where you found me and saved me. The rest, you know from there.

I always wonder what would have happened if the god hunter hadn't saved me. Sometimes, I feel like my story isn't complete. But, it doesn't matter now. I'm going home. I miss you and I would always cherish you.

Love,

Alea'

'Lady Feriella and Queen of Talkita,

I'm sorry I couldn't make it to your wedding. This letter might be short as I know you already read the one I sent to Sol.

You should know you inspire me. I never knew what you saw in me but you believed in me. That scared me.

You kept your promise. I respect you for that. You're a loyal woman. You deserve Sol and Sol deserves you. You would make each other complete.

Don't worry too much about me. I'll be watching you two from the skies. I love you from the bottom of my heart.

Love,

Alea'

'Dear Lady Diqa of the Principality of Soden,

You know, it's crazy how many important people I've tangled with even with my bad luck. If people ever knew that I'm associated with three powerful leaders, they would flip.

I'm sorry I can't say goodbye. I'm leaving for my home. While I can't tell you my full story because of the Principality, I leave it to Sol to tell you.

You were the mother I never could ask for. You were caring, loving, tender, and kind. You were also strong and stubborn. I could picture you being a warrior, not so much of a witch.

Every time you stare at the sky, my earthly mother, I'll be watching you.

Love,

Alea.

'Dear Queen Kohra of Ataliya,

You saved my life. You didn't have to but you did. As I thank you, I also ask for a favor. Go to the temple on the mount of Konora and ask for the wizard of the tempest. Your version of the prophecy was vastly interpreted incorrectly.

Say me well to your husband and children. They were delightful. I wish to see you when I return, god hunter.

Love,

Alea, Daughter of the Moon'
