King Daniel asked Rawlings for advice about whether he should start looking for Anastasia or should he start investigating what is happening in the Izao forest.
"Your majesty, whatever you have done is right" Rawlings replied to King Daniel "but I prefer to start an investigation on the Izao forest to save the lives of the people in the kingdom and the surrounding areas because we do not know what will happen in the future."
The king agreed to Rawlings' advice, but he did not know where to start, he was supposed to know the history of the Izao forest before he start investigating what is happening in it at the moment. But who will he ask?
As far as the king knows, he does not know that there is an old man who will know the history of the Izao forest, "now what is the solution? Where should I start? Who will help me in finding these things?" King Daniel kept repeating these questions in his mind. He did not know who would give him the answer to these questions. When the king decided to tell Rawlings what he had decided in his heart, he heard what his decision was.
Three days after Mary was killed, her corpse was still in the mortuary at the king's house. Daniel said to Rawlings: "I think I will call a meeting of town elders to find out who knows the history of Izao Forest because I think that knowing this will help a lot in understanding how to tackle the forest."
"This is valid, your majesty," Rawlings said to the king humbly, "But when do you think the meeting will be called?"
"King, your attention is needed, your majesty, Robbins is back" a voice from outside interrupted the conversation between the king and Rawlings.
The king quickly came out only to see Robbins Bryan, Rawlings' younger brother standing on his horse.
Robbins is a man with an average height of not less than 9'5, thirty years old, and Rawlings is ten years older than him, between him and Rawlings there were three people but they were all dead, he looks like Rawlings because they all look like their mother, Elizabeth.
The king respects the family of Hawk, Rawlings' father, even though Robbins is not Hawk's son, but his family rose after Hawk divorced Elizabeth, Rawlings' mother, and she went to marry Bryan, Robbins' father, and later died and left her with one child, Robbins, then Hawk married her once more.
And so Rawlings and Robbins started as family members who knew each other and helped each other, until their mother died, whose death caused Hawk to have a heart attack, and eventually, he died.
That's how Rawlings and Robbins continued to live, this reason made them learn to be brave until everyone in Decca and its surroundings knew them.
The king sent Robbins to a place to spy on him about something that no one knows, even in the king's palace, he was in this situation when he heard about what had happened to Mary, His brother's wife, he quickly finished what he was doing and came back to confirm what was happening, because he thought it was a lie, even though he heard it was a mouth that would not lie to him. But he has doubts in his heart.
"I gathered you because I want to tell you that we've to be back by tomorrow morning due to what happened with our beloved sister, Mary, my brother's wife," Robbins said to the army that the king had sent him with them, one and a half thousand men.
When he entered the city, he saw how the people were without joy on their faces, and he got more confirmation of what was said. He didn't get full confidence until he saw his brother Rawlings's face as if he was in danger as if he was paralyzed in a short time because of the absence of Mary and Anastasia, his eyes look like an alligator pepper.
" Robbins your welcome," the king said to Robbins with a smile, "Let's go inside and relax."
The king ordered to bring Robbins a variety of food and drinks. The king said to Robbins that he will not be told anything about what happened to Mary until he finishes the food that was brought to him.
King Daniel did this because he knew that if Robbins was told what had happened, he would not be able to eat anything, which would cause problems in his stomach.
King Daniel is a man of vision and knowledge, he is not proud or prefers himself over his followers, this is the character of his father King Webb, who inherited the kingdom from him, after his death.
After Robbins finished eating, the king said to him: "You haven't eaten anything, you have to eat and we will start talking."
"Your majesty, I can't add anything to my stomach," Robbins said to the king," bowing his head in respect, "This one is enough, thank you."
King looked at Rawlings and said to him: "Tell him what happened."
Rawlings told his beloved brother, Robbins, what happened and from the beginning to the end he did not leave anything.
"Robbins, I'm sorry for the mistake I made in letting Mary go to Izao forest alone after knowing that it was a very sinister forest. The main thing that worries me is that I don't know where Anastasia is, is she alive or dead." Rawlings held his breath and cried.
Robbins couldn't even move his leg, he closed his appetite, he was so shocked by the murder of Mary, he didn't know how to start shedding tears. It was the first time he shed a tear since the deaths of his mother, Elizabeth, and father, Hawk.
"I have never seen great fighters like Rawlings and Robbins shed tears", King Daniel said in his heart.
Robbins remembers nothing but the way Mary treated him like her husband's elder brother, she was canny; Being that he has never been married and has no desire to get married in his life, he just planned for himself how he wants his life to be. Every day, Mary brings food to his house, and some days Rawlings brings him.
"Brother Rawlings, I'm sorry, the loss of Mary is not only affected by you, but it also affects all the people of Decca, because of Mary's good behaviour, she was canny I'm sorry" Robbins was saying this while crying, tears pouring down his face like rain was pouring, e gnashed his teeth, he was fierce and he could not say anything other than sorry, he pulled Rawlings to his body and hugged him, caressing him.
Later, the room was as silent as a graveyard, neither the king nor Rawlings and Robbins could say anything to themselves. It was only later that the king had the courage and said: "Now it's night, Robbins, you should rest. Tomorrow I will sit with you and see if the situation will be resolved."
King Daniel said that Robbins would have slept with Rawlings or they would have been separated from each other. When the king left, Robbins stood up and said to Rawlings, "Let's go", Rawlings said, "Where are we going?"
"Let's go to the place where the corpse of the late Mary was kept, I want to see her with my own eyes," Robbins told Rawlings.
Rawlings takes him, and even when he went to see her body, his mind had a terrible reaction that he had never done before and he promised that they would take revenge for Mary's murder even if doing so would lead to their death altogether.
They closed the room and went back to the bed that was provided for them. They went in and discussed what they should say to the king in the meeting that will be held tomorrow. They discussed the advice they should give to the king.
"I think that the king should make all the elders of the town research the oldest of his area, and ask them if there is anyone who knows the history of Izao Forest," Robbins said to Rawlings, patting his back in sympathy, "If there is someone who can give the history, he will bring it before the king to explain, and then we will see how we can plan the approach to Izao forest to take revenge." he kept his breath burning like burning of charcoal.
Rawlings accepted the advice given by Robbins and agreed that he will tell the king about it in tomorrow's session by God's will.
"What did the king say about Anastasia?" Robbins asked Rawlings.
"He said that the problem of Mary's murder will be solved and then we have to face that problem," Rawlings said. that if this problem is not looked at immediately, the poor people may fall into danger because it is not known how the matter will turn out in the future."
Robbins complimented Rawlings on his thoughtfulness and pointed out that it was correct. Then he continued to calm him until the night he fell asleep and killed them all.
It dawned on the town, four days after the murder of Mary, the king sent a call for the elders of the town to discuss how to solve the problem.
The king came to where Rawlings and Robbins were and greeted him, he gave Robbins a sigh of relief, and told them that he sent for the call to the elders of the town about the meeting that they will have, "and then you should prepare, eat and take a bath, I am in the palace saying waiting for you" said the king as he left the room.
