It didn't take them too long to reach the imperial palace of the Obsidian Kingdom. The horses were magical, after all, which Mana realised only after the carriage started moving.
"Papa, why don't we have horses like these in the Emerald Kingdom?" Mana asked curiously – and, she had to admit it – a little enviously as well.
King Jaren chuckled. "These are obsidian horses, and they are only found in the Obsidian Kingdom. They need dark magic, so they would be miserable in the Emerald Kingdom," he told her, pinching her cheeks.
Mana's face fell. The horses were really magnificent – it was a pity that she couldn't buy a few for herself.
