Ophir can see Lehi's coal like hair twinkle as the window capture shades of sunlit kissing it. As the air brushes her wavy locks, the scenery they passes by spread it like the spider web. Ophir realized that they are now walking the red carpet to the King's throne to give their greetings as he soaked his thought about the woman walking beside him.
The huge wooden door flung open and as they step inside they saw how the palace known as the house of God. It's made of pure gold and silver. They both bow putting their left hand upon their chest.
"May the prayers of your heart ascend to God, blessing this Kingdom El Oathniel. "
The king look at them, His piercing crimson eyes makes you really felt like it't better to keep your eyes down. His ocean blue hair symbolises the waterfalls curtaining this kingdom.
"Lift up your heads, Sorry for cutting your holidays short. There are reports of witchcraft sightings at Maximina Lake that connects to the cave going east. I want you to check it out and deal with it, swiftly as possible without any casualties or mess."
King Cyrus Radney Vine Oathniel really does not know to go around the bush eh. Ophir already knew that this will be Yes/No answer but, well it's not like you'll be able to say no. At least he apologized for cutting the vacation short.
" And take the two esteemed royals with you. Take my carefree son with you and his babysitter. You know that I never allow solo assignments anyway. Except that the royal aid will increase in people enough to form a team. No need for salutations. You two are dismissed."
The door closed as the four of them got escorted to their palace. The Myrrh palace the two of them reacted to how the myrrh palace now. It is cylindrical graced by saphhire and granites. The ashes and golden dust spiraling from bottom to top. Seeing it in aerial view it look like a Cinnamon.
A seven storey built in like the two of them have seen. Each floor is structured to it's function. The top floor is occupied as the teams built in room like on dorms but is more spacious and luxurious. The second floor is where the personal maids and knights are lodging. The third floor is for meeting and conferences . The fourth floor is the treasure box means the storage and training room. The fifth floor is where they put all the gifts they recieved and the sanctuary . The sixth floor is a garden wing and for leisures. The seventh floor is where they allow people to get in it is where the kingdom's library. And the overseer in this rebuilt library is Novena one of the King's consultant.
It is known as the library because all the stairs within the palace are bookshelf. Lehi and Ophir was about to react that they knew her but she made a gesture where her index finger pressed upon her lips, telling them to keep their mouth shut and they should just pretend that they never met her.
They gear themselves for the mission this royal carraige provided by the palace is spacious enough for four people to ride in because inside the carraige is Lehi and Ophir plus the Royal Prince and Young Duke. Prince Kiel Gaze Vine Oathniel. Lehi is glad that his eyes is not after her father -the king but Kiel got his mother's jasper eyes. It is well known that this prince can communicate with nature inheriting his grandfather's cane.It is also well spoken that Kiel is cheerful and playful the polar opposite of his ever so serious father. But the face and hair is the complete young version of his father. Beside the Royal Prince is the pearly shape and color eyes, chocolate seaweed hair and is with quite damanour the master of speedy swordsmanship and close combat Hexel Arden Bowden. The prince babysitter. And according to history the four of us are childhood friends.
Thankfully I discuss this earlier with Ophir that is why we managed on how to act around them. The ride was fun and cheerful. The gang arrived at Maximina lake. This lake is ancestral. The lake is in three colors from blue,white and green. The sky is closer to it that even the purple petals of roses on the surface portrays the most romantic area within parameter of the kingdom. You don't sail boats on the lake rather they uses woven huge papyrus basket to go around it. Kiel sense a presence in the middle of the lake and commanded the water to lead them where the presence is coming from. But Kiel's senses betrayed him.
The papyrus that carried them stop at where they arrived. The bed of purple roses turned unto black. The lake became a blood bath. Suddenly became heavy and dreadful. The appearance of an old woman holding a healthy young boy with gray curly wild hair, sleeping unto the old womans arm unaware of the danger that has fallen upon the innocent boy. Ophir started to shake in rage for what has come upon their view.
Lifeless bodies float with the black petals of roses turning the lake into a blood coated water. The foul smell sent anguish upon their lamenting soul. The romantic lake became a scarlet grave.
