Without delay, Barak reached the palace and as soon as the palace knights saw the flying being over the palace, alerts had been made, bells were rang, guards were armed, and sharpened arrows were ready to fire.
"Hold your fire!" The commander of the palace knights cried out as he rushed to the top of the palace walls. "Hold your fire!" He ordered again. And the men watched as the flying being, holding a strange fighting woman in his hand landed in the center of the palace.
Instantaneously, they were surrounded by sharpened long spears held in the hands of battle-ready knights. Barak retracted his wings but still held Neriah firmly in his hands.
"I am your Princess Neriah!" She started." I have been captured by this vile beast! Kill him and set me free." She continued. And Barak could not just believe that anyone could be this adamantly foolish! What in the world was she trying to pull in this obvious situation?
