Anastasia and the others had reached the desert of Iris, as they've successful passed through the hills and Mountains that leads them to the kingdom of 'Dorillas'. This is a magical desert where flowers like Iris can be found. It is said from history that the Iris flower has the magical abilities to heal any kind of illnesses. It's also a special kind of delicacy which can be eaten to survive the harsh condition of the desert.....
Anastasia and the others start to pick up the flowers as they consumed it hungrily, then kept some for themselves as they continue on their journey. They've walked for miles through the desert as they're now reaching the far end of the desert. I'm so tired guys... Said Diana tiredly. I think it's time we take a break. We've been walking for days non stop and I'm so exhausted.... She collapses to the ground as Anastasia tries to wake her up. Diana! We're getting closer to Dorillas kingdom; you don't have to give up now. Lex checks her pulse. She will be fine.... Anastasia worried. She doesn't look fine to me. How about you carry her. I'm sure we can make it through.... She pointed at the gate of the city which can be seen a few Kilometers away. Look! We're getting closer to Dorillas. Come on guys, we can do this! If you say so. He carries the exhausted Diana on his back as they continue to walk through the desert.
Finally, We're here! Exclaimed Anastasia excitedly as the others signed in relief when they reached the city gate.... I'm hungry guys and tired. Shouldn't we first look for a place to stay? Lucas replied. Diana is right. If we must seek audience with the King, we will need to regain our strength. What do you suggest we do then? said Lex. Anastasia smiled. I think I have an idea.... Replied Lex. We're all ears. How about we spend the night at the inn? Then at dawn tomorrow, we can proceed to the castle. it's a very long walk from the city gate to the castle. Where do you think we can get an inn to stay at such an hour? We only need to ask around. Replied Anastasia. Who knows, we might be lucky to get a good place.
