Nicholas as well as the king's warriors had been searching for the King. Then suddenly Gideon found him. He blew a horn to alert the other warriors.

"My Lord, you look.." Said Gideon,unable to finish his words.

"I look wonderful don't I. You were worried for nothing." Said the king.

"We have been searching for you my Lord."

The King pat Gideon on his left shoulder, gently.

"I am here now. There is no need to worry yourself anymore."

"Brother how did you go to the forest in your condition?" Nicholas asked.

"I too don't know. The gods must be responsible for this."

The warriors looked at each other.

"But you could not even walk."

"I am healed brother! Isn't that what matters?"

"My Lord you look good." Said Gideon.

"Thank you."

"Did you take some medicine,a herb?" Nicholas asked.

"Yes, I ate it."

"Where is this herb?"

"I ate it. Shall we go to the palace or will you continuously interrogate me with silly questions?" The king asked, irritably.

Nicholas became silent.

"May you borrow me your sword." She said. The King took out his sword then handed it over to Carmen.She began to remove the skin of the animal. She was quick. "How did you learn to do these thing's?" The King asked. "I read books before. Then taught myself when I arrived in the wilderness. " She said. Carmen inserted the sharp point of the sword in the deers mouth,till the point showed in the other side of the deer. She used logs to balance the deer as the fire burned it thoroughly.

Nicholas had a spare King which he had made without the King's knowledge a long time ago. Carmen heard the turning of the key. She assumed it was the King, therefore she continued to lay on the bed while reading a book. She was startled when another man entered. He resembled the King, but he was much shorter and leaner in body size. Nicholas was just as surprised. "Who are you?" He asked. The King had forgotten something, he went back to the bedroom and saw door wide open. He never worried. He ran inside and found Nicholas standing there in the centre of the bedroom looking at Carmen. "Have you lost something in my bedroom" the King asked, quite irritated by his brother. "No not really, I thought I heard something. Excuse me." Said Nicholas. "Are you alright, did he touch you or do anything you did not like?" "No he didn't,is

    A few days later, rumours had spread about King Stephen. "My Lord I have come to warn you. The people are saying evil things about you." Said Gideon,one day as the King was in his library finalising the finances of the country. "What King of evil things?" "They are saying you have abducted a woman and are treating her as your sex slave instead of marrying her." The King was shocked. "But that is not true. I do agree that I have been hiding a woman but she is not my slave and I have never abducted her." Gideon stood silently.Surprised by the King's confession. He himself did not know the King had a woman hidden in his room. "My Lord. I suggest that you marry her before a war comes to your door." "You are correct by saying so. I will ask the woman, if she is now ready to marry as I have also been waiting for her to approve my proposal." Gideon's hate eased. His King was a good man afterall. "Must I send out invites regarding the wedding?" "No do not worry. I will firstly disc

    Marriage to King Stephen was great in the first three years. Carmen had still not voice out her opinion on the matter that had been bothering her in a long time. She had grown in a royal palace, she was mindful at how her father was Ruling Kineti. She compared Aota and Kineti. She saw that their financial situations was almost similar, as well as their way of doing things, however Aota did not have enough strong warriors. Only Gideon was the strongest among them all, hence he had been giving the position to lead. That proved rather dangerous as their enemies could destroy the country with one war. The Queen was restless over the matter. She finally found the courage to open her thoughts. "My King, I have been meaning to speak with you about a certain matter." She said, in a trembling voice. By paying full attention to his wife, the king was able to recognise the fear in his wife as she spoke. He placed the ink as well as the paper he had been working on and gave Carmen his full atte

"But my King, I told you that I will return right away. You worry needlessly." "Did Alex agree?" "He told me he will tell me. I do not know what has happened between Alex and I. We were best friends once. But know he has been treating me like a stranger. We are not as close as we used to be." Said Carmen"When did you realise that he was treating you strange?" "As soon as I married King Darius. Perhaps he does not want to overstep the boundary. I am a Queen afterall." "Alternatively,he could have feelings for you." Carmen laughed. "That is not possible. We have been friends for too long. I could have noticed something by now." She said. "Perhaps he is hiding his feelings from you." "Then he does good by hiding them if indeed he does have them,which I do not believe even for a second." King Stephen did not want to overthink th

"Father,I brought with me a guest. A desperate advisor from the house of Kish. She wants to help." Said the Queen. "I know who she is. Ingrid, the first woman in Noracia, who even as the circumstances did not favor her managed to become the first female advisor in Noracia. I know her history." "I am humbled. I did not know that I was known here " said Ingrid. "Ingrid would like to assist us with what we need, whether it be funding, whether it be creating more crossbows,she earnestly hopes to destroy Shiandra too." "I hear you well, but where is prince Uzriel. He needs to also be a part of us." Said the Archbishop"Prince Uzriel will not be joining us as I placed him in a safe place, a ship beneath the water. He can only come out when the war is over. As he and princess Ashah who unfortunately

    Meanwhile Shiandra was at Noracia, in the form of Prince Uzriel. She had been observing the prince's movement's and noticed that he spend most of his time in his Science room, researching.

"I would be glad to. We can go." Ingrid and the prince went to the science room together. While Shiandra transformed into what looked like the prince himself.

And I asked that you take heed to my word's as what I have to say will be of great significance to all of you."said Shiandra.

    Morning arrived,Carmen took an early bath. The King prepared breakfast and they ate. "Will you continue with what you said last night?" The King asked. "Nicholas is our enemy, he works with Shiandra. He has to die." "Then hire a warrior. You have not killed a man in your life. Of you do this then you will have to live with it." "Father,I am well aware of the consequences that I will have to face for this. I know that killing a man is not the ideal thing to do. I also know that I will not hire anyone because I am not a normal simple being,I am a hybrid and I never miss my prey." Said the Queen. King Cyrus gave his daughter a warm hug. "I believe in you my child. Make sure you do not die." He said. Carmen simply smiled. She took a horse and rode to Aota. Killing Nicholas would have to be done during the day as vampire's were more vulnerable during the day than at night. Besides Nicholas was not even that strong as he was not feeding on human blood.

Carla was not present at the meeting this time,however Theresa was. "We are gathered here tonight to speak about what we discovered in ishrat." Said the Archbishop. "Does Ishrat have demon's as well as hot lava?" Carmen asked. "It is the most ugliest place to be in. It does not have lava just red ugly soil." Said Kira. "Theresa advised us to rest, we did as she said. We then attacked Shiandra's vampire's unexpectedly unfortunately some managed to escape while most if them died." "What about Shiandra?" King Cyrus asked. "She was not in Ishrat. It was as if she knew we were coming " said Rita. "Are you saying that we might have someone helping her?" Carmen asked. "It is possible" said father Jonathan"I have been keeping an eye out on Shiandra's since we last attacked her children. Last night I saw King Nicholas carrying a human head, then en

    The following morning Ingrid went to Princess Ashah's room only to find her body there laying on the ground with no head. She screamed. Prince Uzriel ran to her. “What is going on, why are you screaming?” He asked. Ingrid pointed to the ground, Prince Uzriel entered the room and moved closer till he saw a body on the ground. He covered his mouth in shock when he realised it was his sister. “No no!” he shouted. The prince knelt to the ground and began to weep. “Who did this?” He shouted. “I do not know, I found her in that condition when I entered just now.I will tell the guards to look around for any clues that the killer might have left.” said Ingrid, running out of the room. Prince Uzriel covered his sister’s body with a sheet then left the room. “Where are you going?” Ingrid asked. “The people need to know that their princess has been killed.” Said the prince. “I will send out letters to the royal families from the other countries that surround us.” said Ingrid.

    Meanwhile Carmen was in the office working herself tiressly. Shiandra came to her in the form of Creselda, while the real Creselda was in her room sleeping from the witch's spell. "My lady I know that I'm only just a cook here but can you please tell me about the school you are building." Said Creselda's lookalike. The Queen smiled. She was glad to see a servant showing interest in the school. "Take a seat." She said. Creselda pulled a chair and sat."What you need to know about the school is written on that paper." Said the Queen, giving Creselda an A4 paper with writings on it. "Is it truly possible that when I finish my studies I will get employment in positions that only men used to occupy?" "Yes it is possible. This is something I longed for many years ago." "Is it also possible that I can become a female warrior as well?" Creselda asked,looking intensely at the Queen. "You can become what you want. The laws are gradually changing, soon enough we will be a free country l

    Meanwhile in Ishrat. "Is there any water here for us to bath?" Kira asked. "I don't know. I haven't really walked that long to see any water and I don't think it would be wise to use the water here." Said Carla. Theresa entered the room, the prophet's were all awake, but still laying in their beds. "There won't be any bathing until you leave Ishrat. The water here is poisonous and it's filled with evil. Drinking the water,is inviting demon's into your body. You will hear evil voices commanding you to do as they wish." Said Theresa. The prophet's began to whisper. "Is it safe for us to go to Shiandra's cave now?" The Archbishop asked. "They are tired during this time. They are stronger in the night time. We can go." Said Theresa. "She is telling the truth. Vampire's are weak during the day but strong during the night time. We might be able to defeat them." Said Carla. "Then we leave now." Said Father Jonathan waking up from his bed.

    Early in the morning Carmen took a horse and returned to Aota. It was a sunny Saturday morning and Alex had been waiting for the Queen to arrive. And when she entered the palace, he quickly ran to her from the sitting room where he had been waiting. "I thought I smelt you." Said Carmen. "You smelt me?" "I meant,I thought I heard you. Well I was hoping to you but I did not expect to see you this early." The Queen felt uncomfortable about telling people the things she felt and could hear from a distance. She was afterall the child of a hybrid. She knew much would be expected from her."We never speak as much as we used to." Said Alex with a frown on his face. "We never seem to rest. Our tasks never seem to end. But I am glad that you came. Your presence will always be appreciated." Alex smiled. "I'm very humbled to hear those words. I know that I may be just a friend but I wondered if you could be able to join me on my fishing activity. You won't have to hunt for any fish, I will
