The next morning, the entire contingents from the four kingdoms – the Sapphire Kingdom, the Emerald Kingdom, the Obsidian Kingdom and the Pearl Kingdom – all of whom had been enjoying a leisurely stay at the Sapphire Kingdom after the banquets – set off for the Amber Kingdom together.
This time, King Jaren, Mana and Jules (as well as Raven and Bella) were glad that they had not told Grandpa and Grandma about Queen Dora's return – it would be all too cruel for them to learn that their older daughter was still alive, and then lose her immediately to their younger daughter yet again. It would be much better when they were able to get Queen Dora back properly and remove the spirit possession – and until then, it was best to just let things be the way they were. Perhaps it was fate that they had forgotten to notify Grandpa and Grandma earlier, Mana thought – but it was for better, at least at the moment.
