"Greetings, Your Majesty." Amaya greeted the king politely.
Marx and Vaszques lowered their heads to show respect to the king.
"You made me worried, Princess. Don't you know that your Grandpa is about to wage war on Ra-Iya?" King Ralden asked showing an aggrieved expression.
"My apologies, Your Majesty. We got delayed by something." Amaya hastily explained.
"Did you enter the forbidden mountain?" King Ralden probed.
Both Marx and Princess Amaya looked at the king and studied him. Amaya had her thoughts. She wanted to gather more evidence for her thoughts to be conclusive.
"We did, Your Majesty," Amaya said calmly.
"You did?" King Ralden's eyes were as big as an egg.
"We only reached the foot of the mountain when a tiger attacked us. After that, there were the very big spiders and poisonous snakes. It was the snake that drove us out of the mountain." Amaya recounted. The crowd around them was dazed.
