As I Explored the castle I ran into an oddly familiar face. This boy had black hair like charcoal, dark blue eyes, and skin as golden as the sun set, he was taller than me at about 6.2ft. I saw him carrying tea. "I wonder what to do?" I followed the boy around secretly as if it wasn't my own castle, only to see that he brought the tea to a little girl, she had blonde hair kind of golden, and had pretty pink bows. She had purple-gold eyes that shimmered like sparkles. She looked about 9 years old, young enough to be my little sister. As this boy brought the tea over to her she politely bowed or might I say curtsied. She excepted the cup of tea, then had a sip of it in front of him. She looked at him with the gentlest face, smiled then splashed the cup of hot tea onto him. She announced that it was "awful!", that she would not except this type of tea. The boy bowed and apologized, he said "I'm sorry My lady, I will bring you a new cup right away" then he rushed off in a hurry, might I add, he wasn't wearing any comfy attire or clothes that all the other servants wear, it almost looked like rags thrown together. He doesn't fit the role of a servant in any way. When I look at him, he has broad shoulders and a big form, he's tall and muscular, not servant-like at all. More like a Soldier or a knight, a Warrior who fight's battles, and wins wars.
I walked up to the girl and said "hello cutie" She turned around in discussed and yelled "who dares call me cute!" I giggled because her angry face was adorable "I did" then I glared down at her lividly, "I told you Elizabeth you are to be nice to My servants, even if they make you upset, you dismiss them" I said that to her without thinking as if I've done it before. How strange I wonder why it feels all so Familiar, I Even know her name, I didn't even ask her. "Oh, my king Orion!" she gleamed "oh how I missed you, it's been far to long" her mood completely changed once she saw me, she was nice. "well how have you been" I questioned her as if we've done it all before "oh I've been so well, but I've missed you dearly Orion" it was nice meeting her, she went on as if we've met before. How could it have been so long if I'm 17 and she looks 9? I haven't met her a day in my life, at least I don't remember, maybe it relates to that memory I had earlier.
"my dear Elizabeth, why are you treating that boy that way? Did he do something wrong" she looked at me and sighed "Orion, you've always been like this, I can't believe you saw that. If you must know, he brought me tea, green tea, I hate green tea. Orien I asked for mint tea, mint, is that too much to ask"
"Elizabeth you must know that it is not his fault. For he is not the one that prepared the tea, he simply brought it to you" she glanced at me and turned her head in shame "I guess you're right Orien I am sorry" "it's alright Elizabeth, just don't do it again" as she stepped aside and waited for me to leave before she moved I turned and asked "One more thing Elizabeth, do you know where I can find that boy. And what is his name?" " you really want to know, ha~ he should be in the kitchen. If you go straight down the hall take a right, go down the stairs, and go straight through the Habana you should run into him there, his name is Albern, it doesn't even suit him for goodness sake's!" She yelled as she walked off.
I on the other hand thought it suited him very well.
As I walked down the stairs, I took time to appreciate the interior designs of the castle. Everything was gold and Courts With big glass windows that let the sun shine through. The castle was full of plants that chained across like vines, there where trees as big as houses, flowers that would fall out of nowhere, and even fruits that grew inside. it was surprisingly clean Considering all the plants. When I made my way through the Habana I saw that there was a Garden just passed the kitchen. The garden had a giant tree but this tree looked different it looked like it had a heartbeat it had golden leaves and a twisted root. water surrounded it with a fountain and beautiful flowers that covered the ground like bedrock. As I Stood there appreciating its beauty the person I was looking for came to me. "Excuse me, what do you think you are doing" I turned around "I-" "you cannot be here you must leave now before I have guards get you out" he seemed angered and upset "but-" before I could say anything he pushed me out of the kitchen and left me. I walked around for a few hours and then-
"My king" "moth- I mean Letizia what's wrong" "we have an emergency there is a thief, You must come to judge his punishment" As I made my way to my throne to Make judgement upon the thief, I walked in, my eyes spread wide, my face was expressionless. It was Albern "what is he doing here?" I questioned "My Lord he is a thief" said Letizia in a happy tone as if she'd been waiting for this to happen "wait I've heard that voice before" Albern said trying to turn around but guards wouldn't let him. I walk up to my throne and sat down. "What did this man steal?"
"Well my lord he's trying to steal one of the petals from our soul tree" said Letizia "really and do we have any Witnesses?" "Well no my Lord, but we did find a golden leaf on him" Letizia exclaimed "raise his head let me speak to him face to face" I said firmly. Guard:"Yes my lord"
As Albern raised his head and looked at me he gasped "so you were my king" "yes" I said.
"You gave me a good laugh earlier, Thank you for that" i told him but Albern was silent. "Albern? did you try to steal from me?" I questioned "no my lord, I'd never!" he yelled "very well Release him" I demanded "wait you can't do this, all he said was that he didn't, but what if he did!?" "Don't you dare raise your voice at me Letizia" "you remember now don't you my lord" she asked "yes, every last bit" I said this because it's true I remember my life before I went below, everything. All my people and how I was as a ruler. "But still we can't trust him" Letizia said "Letizia I do not need you holding my hand do you understand" I yelled at her "now Albern I've been meaning to ask you, do you like wearing rags as cloths and being treated like a dog?"
"No my lord, no one would" he said quietly
"How would you like to become my personal gaurd?" "wait my lord you've never needed one before" Letizia snapped "but I want one now, so I shall have one, right Albern?" I said with a smirk "of course my lord anything you want" he said to me while bowing. " get this boy the best silk Attire in the Castle, and give him the Best riches-(food) to eat. Then show him his room it shall be across from mine in the Master bedroom"
"But my lord that's my room" Letizia cried "not anymore it's Albern's room now, Guards throw her out of the castle she is banned from ever entering again."
