Chapter 6 - The Princess with the Unusual Heartbeat

Lucas, the leader of the Knights of the Kingdom of Parma was loved by the citizens of the Kingdom including the royal family. He was known for his great fighting skills and had never lost a war in battle. He was given the name, 'The Handsome warrior Knight' by the female citizens of the Kingdom. One sunny day, he shows up at the Castle as he approaches 'His Majesty' King William. Greetings, 'Your Majesty' Lucas bows to the King as he greets him. Welcome back, Lucas. The king smiled. I'm so happy to see you. I know my daughter, Anastasia will be so excited you're back. Since you left, she has been causing a lot of trouble for us. I wish I could just get rid of her right this instant by giving her in marriage to you. Lucas smiled. You don't have to worry, 'Your Majesty'. The Princess is just trying to be natural. She's just like every other maiden in the kingdom. Adventurous and always trying to explore the world around her.

How was your trip by the way? The King asked. It went well, 'Your Majesty'. Just like we predicted, 'The Witch' is trying to launch an attack soon as she holds grudges against the people of Tama and their Emperor. I get to meet with the emperor and he specifically told me, he will be needing Military support from all nations and dignitaries and intends to form a strong ally. His son will be here soon to sign a treaty with you. What do you suggest we do? Should we sign the treaty? We all know how powerful and extremely dangerous the witch has grown over the years with the battalion of soldiers on her side and allies. Also, with her abilities to resurrect dead warriors and even dragons and beasts that are already known to be extinct, we're definitely no match for her. We heard how she destroyed the three strongest Kingdom in the eastern part of Gasard who're strong allies to the emperor. I'm not Confident we have enough military facilities and weapons to be able to defeat her in battle. Said the King. I think we should consider his offer, 'Your Majesty'. Said Lucas. We don't have to be scared of the evil witch and besides, we have your wife's sister as your strongest ally who's also very powerful. If we get to win the war after forming an allegiance with the emperor, this will be a great feat for you and for our Kingdom in becoming the center of attraction. Imagine what we could accomplish when we succeed? King William replies him. You sound like you trust the future of the Kingdom of Tama and his Emperor. Lucas smiled. I'm a friend with the son of the emperor. He's a very skill full, intelligent, ambitious and powerful young man. I know he's going to make a great Emperor one day and succeeds his father on the throne. King William replies. If you believe we have a higher advantage in the war, then, I give you my full support. Lucas bows…. I'm must privilege to have you as my King, 'Your Majesty'. The King smiled. I will be most proud to have you as a son-in-law. If only we can find a cure for her illness then, you both can finally get to be together. As it looks now, she can't have any physical contact with anyone or else, she develops a difficulty in breathing which comes with extreme heart pain and makes her lose consciousness. Lucas smiles. I know well enough about her strange ailment and wish to find a cure for her soon as possible. I'm happy you care a lot about her. The King smiled. I've always loved your daughter since the moment I was put in charge to be her protector. Can I make a request to see the princess? Of course, you can, Lucas. You have my blessings already... Lucas leaves the King's presence as he goes in search of Princess Anastasia
