ARIELLE:
I arrive at the Temple and the Amazonian Youth have already gathered for the ritualistic bath in the River Samara. The Priestess Soledad is already set for the ritual and is awaiting my arrival to the altar.
"Ah! The little Queen Arielle! How is your morning going so far?" she asks me.
"I am a little perplexed about a great band of creatures that walk our streets here in Khavena, my priestess," I reply.
"We are as confused as you are. We awakened to see these sights ourselves. You know we have no visitors in Khavena. My little Queen."
"I guess mother knows why they are here. She has to be aware. Unless otherwise a war would have brewed in the city, don't you think?"
"I do so your grace. Shall the bathing ritual begin now?"
"Certainly, my Priestess."
I head to the River and await the other girls to bathe before I bathe. I love privacy.
When they are all gone, I take off all my clothes and enter the water. I dive in for over six minutes twice before I can come up. On the second ascending, A shadow comes up in the corner of my eyes. I slowly turn and see the exact same creature I saw in the streets. This time, it is in a closer view. It stands tall and has a rather muscular body compared to mine. It is more good looking in a closer view. I have never seen anything like it in my entire life.
"Who are you?" I ask.
It stays silent. It looks like us but is more pale and more different. I stand up and stare at it. It looks down at my features from head to toe, with a passion filled smolder in amazement and awe. I wonder what is fascinating about my body that makes this creature rather amazed about me. It has rather a multitude of drawings on its body that attract my attention, a tree, a face and others. It traces its fingers lightly on my cheeks, a way no other Amazon has ever done. I start to shiver completely. This is a feeling I have never experienced in my life.
"My Princess," a maid calls to me in a distance.
I turn to see why she is calling me. She hurriedly wades through the water and covers my naked body. I look up in to the dreamy eyes of this creature and wonder how it made me feel such an ounce of fear within my body.
"My Princess, you know better than to stand bare before visitors," the maid says to me.
"What is this? It is a visitor to us?" I ask confusedly.
"They are not its my Princess. They are Seekers. He is the Prince of the Seekers, Caith Saint Callum. He isn't a beast, he is a man."
"What is a man?" I ask.
"Hennesia!"
The maid leads me away from the water but my eyes stick to the distant figure of the MAN Prince I have just met.
