One week had passed in a blur, according to my trainers I am ready to go to the academy. I feel relieved that my training was over, but deep in my heart, I know that it will become harder when I will be in the academy.
"Are you okay Mal? We will be leaving in an hour." Freda asked and informed me about our departure, and I am so happy that she is now back into wearing civilian clothes.
I am more at ease having my friend beside me again. She looks like a teenager again, though she looks younger, when she is wearing her soldier uniform she looks more intimidating.
"I don't know Freda, it is still so hard for me to believe all these." I told her while I am at the window of my room looking at the landscaped at the north part of the castle. Birds are flying from a distance while the graceful long-necked swans are swimming in the lake.
