Chapter 379 - Scarf

"Elwin, nobody is going to buy this. Even if it is your birthday wish."

"......Hmmmm.....Hmmmmmm....

I'm down."

"What? This is prosperous."

"If it keeps her from tearing down our Kingdoms then I'm all for it. Who's with me?"

"Ummm...….that wasn't quite the response I was going for, Elwin; but you did it."

"Whether bad or good, our past is what makes us who we are today.

You can't remove one thing or another; and not get the same result.

What Tai built for evil, brought us all together on that fateful day for good.

And now look at us.

We are all closer together than ever before, or...is everyone still looking through Ruby's eyes?"

"I.....*Huuuuuuu*

We've never been so close before."

"Then let's memorial it, by learning from it."

"Wait, Ruby doesn't want a school. Please, if you..."

"Who knows what Ruby wants. What matters is what she needs.

All she sees is her failure has broken our Kingdoms further apart, but she doesn't know that is the opposite of truth. Through danger we united, and through trials, we learned.

It's time for her to learn what truly went on behind the scenes."

"Well, I......…She'll love it."

"By all means, lead the way."

"Painter, Photographer, Royal builder; everyone else; on me."

*Vroo*

....*Knock, Knock, Knock*

"Who is it?"

"About that Soup, is it still warm?"

"For you, always.

Come to relax from your woes?"

"....Where do I even start?"

"You could start with a pencil."

"Elwin, it's going to take a lot more than just a pencil to erase this mess."

"You're right.

Here you go. Hope this Mechanical pencil helps."

*Click*

"Ummmmm...…thanks."

*Click, click, click*

"What's going on here?

Why are you...…Princess Elwin?"

"Queen Elwin to you, and my first official degree is to honor the past."

"Here?"

"Upfront is not a place, but a people.

Tai built this place as a house to learn, not to hold........so let's change it back."

"It's going to take all of us."

"Then tie your scarves tightly around your mouths; cover your noses, and help me make this Ki….Our Kingdom...….. great again."

"What do you want us to do first?"

"I don't think there's anything you can do, Mom.

It would take an act of unimaginablitity to change their ways."

"After everything you've told me, and I getting the chance to talk to you; I think they have."

"But..."

"Ruby, my dear. That was your past; this is your now."

"But I want you to be my now."

"You'll always be able to visit me here; but you gotta give people the chance.

You ask people to change, but then you leave before they can prove anything."

"I...*Sluuuuuuuuuuuuuurrrrrrp*

Wish I could eat this all day."

"It'd kill you.

Too much sugar."

"Ohhh, you're just making that up.

You can never have too much of a good thing."

"Then why not friends?"

"Finish your soup, Ma."

*Errrrruuuuupp*

"Where are you going?"

"I think some apologies are in order."

"Ohhhh...…..….For who?"

*Tick…..tick.....tick....tick...tick*

"Elwins a good start.

I have something that rightfully belongs to her anyways."

"Aaaaaahhhhhhhhh...…I see."

*Muay*

"Love you, Mama. Be back soon."

*Zroom*

"Don't do anything I wouldn't do."
