Whit's point of view
"What do you mean? It's from Daku?"
"I was surprised too!"
"But how'd he get it here?"
"Magic"
Edelweiss had an awful idea. Just like every other idea she's ever had...
"Edelweiss, we can't just sneak into the dungeon!! What if we are caught?"
"I'm royalty, Whit. We'll be fine! Let's go!"She grabbed my hand and ran.
"Seriously, Edelweiss!!! We shouldn't be doing this!!"
"Do you want to find Daku or not?"
"Fine!!"
She wanted to get information from the Queen of Light Magic that was in the dungeon of Daku's palace. I know we have to, but I really, really don't want to....
We arrived at the dungeon.
"Edelweiss, you're so reckless!!"
"Have you seriously never met someone as reckless as me?"
"I'm pretending to use dark magic, I forgot."
"Wait, I have...."
"Oh, she's over there. "
"Shit, this won't end well..."
"Who are you?"
"I'm Queen Edelweiss Blue, we need information!"
"Edelweiss is a queen? Whoever did that is an idiot..."
"I'm not telling you anything!"
Edelweiss opened the cell with magic and walked in.
She punched her in the face, hard.
"Tell Usori and again, where is Daku ?"
"I'm not telling you!"
She punched her again.
"Fine, fine!! He's in the dungeon of the Palace of the Northside of Light Magic, he should be in the 4th cell to the right."
Edelweiss let go of her.
"Thanks, come on, Whit, we closed her cell, then left.
The border is just across the creek. I took Edelweiss there.
"How do you know where the border is, again?"
"Doesn't matter..."
"OK..."
We were still walking toward the border.
"Oh Whit! I found a way that you and Daku can stay together."
"How?"
"Daku has to propose to you and you have to accept."
"Why does Daku have to do it?"
"Because. He's the only one who can. That's what happened with me and my husband."
"Your husband! What happened to him? I probably shouldn't be asking this..."
"A demon killed him. Someone summoned it, if I knew who, they'd be dead."
"What's his name?"
"Norman"
"We're here!"
We arrived at the border. I walked past it.
"Whit, how'd you cross that? Only people with light magic can cross without magic!!"
I froze. I'm finally busted. Shit... I wanted to at least say goodbye to Daku.
"Do you use light magic, Whit?"
"No..."
"You do, I'm not gonna kill you. "
"Fine, fine, I use light magic."
"Getting you and Daku to marry might be harder than expected."
"So, she doesn't care?"
"I know..."
"It can still be done. Just give me time..."
