Panting heavily, Owl lies down on the carpeted floor, soaking blood everywhere. Yvonne was beside him, unconscious. Lana hurriedly approaches them with supplies on her hands, prepared to treat the two.
"What in the world happened?!" she asked them, worried.
Owl leaned against the wall while trying his hardest to bear the pain of burning scars on his skin.
They had just arrived in time before the sun starts to rise.
"What did you encounter along the way?!"
"That prick." he told her, between exhausted breaths. "That prick who attacked Asty in the library."
"And it took you two days to come home?!" she yelled at him.
"How do you expect us to move quickly if we're this beaten up?"
Lana takes Yvonne's body and laid her down on the couch. She started to clean the woman's body before treating her wounds.
Owl took a glance everywhere. Somehow, he feels strange that the entire castle was quiet and g

Robynn's wrists were tightly cuffed by the feared, Captain Ironfield. He stared at the huge door with his silver-grey hues and pondered how much that intricately designed door costed."Must have been a fortune." he murmured."What?" Ironfield asked him, his brows raised. "What are you blabbering about?""Nothing." he ignored him and stared at his wrists. He didn't even bat an eye or react to it. He was used to being locked and wasn't afraid of chains anymore."You'll be going inside to confide with His Majesty." Yuran spoke from behind him and cleared his throat. "You must keep your head low and never meet his gaze nor respond unless you are opted to do so. Never ever attempt to assassinate the King. There is a reason why the sentries are not needed inside."Feeling the animosity behind their words. Robynn nodded nonchalantly like a drunk man and yawned. "Should I just address him a

Asthenosthene was walking in the palace's hallway when she heard whispering from the maids in the corner. She didn't want to eavesdrop but she could hear a few statements from them so audibly."Did you hear? His Majesty is departing a few days from now!""Again? To where?""I do not know either, but they are preparing the horses in the stable to depart for tomorrow.""Really?""Yes! I have seen it myself. It is unusual because the flagship horse is not being prepared to deploy. However, they seem to be planning a wide-scale march.""That's unusual, why wouldn't they bring the flagship horse?"Asty walked passed them with her head lowered when the maid tried to get her attention."Hey, you there."Asty halted and slowly turned herself to bow at the maid.

Chaol was reading his novel inside the library when the maid knocks on the door."Come in."Lana opened the creaky, old door, holding a tray with a cup of jasmine tea for him. She observed the male's calm composure as he flipped the pages of a novel in his hand."Do you not feel tired, milord? Reading the same book, over and over again?"Chaol takes the cup and sips on it. "Nothing tires me anymore.""I-I see. I'll be leaving you here then."The maid exits the library, leaving her master in peace. She strode through the halls while watching the sky turn into dusk. She couldn't hear anything– not even the sound of birds, but her footstep echoing on the empty hallway.Everything was just so monochromatic.No music.No hymn of hummingbirds.No loud cheering.No greets.

It Asty takes another chance again.She hopped onto the basement, as soon as the palace wardens slacked. With an oil lamp in her hand she traversed through the empty halls that led to the inner part of the basement. She kept walking and walking and realizes that she was such in a vast, empty room— the door was on the other left end of the wall so as to confuse everyone.After all, the King didn't want the prisoner to easily find the exit by placing it directly adjacent to the door. It could easily be walked straight, so to make things a little bit different, the King had requested its architecture to be that confusing.However, with Asty's lamp, she was able to spot that shimmering light on the basement handle. She opened it and walked right in."Guys!""A-Asty?" Lana once again, woke up, but spoke to her in a surprised but weak voice.She walked towards the m

Meanwhile, in the palace, the vampire was invited to speak with the King. While his head was lowered to the carpet, the King looked down at him with a casual expression on his face."You are the vampire from the clan of Nazel, are you not?"The vampire was then yanked to respond by a sentry. "Y-Yes, Your Majesty.""You are from the Nazels in the North and yet you are here back in South-eastern. How in the world did you get here from such a far place?"I... I was separated from my family, Your Majesty.""The Nazels have told me that they were looking for a child of theirs in years. Your father is the Count, isn't he?""Yes, indeed.

The bells rang from the distance. The woman with the bright orange hair stood behind the huge doors of the church. Her eyes were closed and a smile was evident on the woman's lips. Everything that she dreamed of was finally before her eyes. The moment had finally come. She opened her eyes and the doors finally parted ways. Her eyes fell to the long golden aisle that she so dreamt of walking one day. Beside it, on the benches, for all the people she loved and cared for. She felt her heart start pounding and racing faster and faster, when her bright persimmon orbs reached the center of the long corridor. There he stood, the love of her life, the apple of her eye, the man who taught her how to love.

Asty was walking around the palace when she noticed something strange everywhere. The maids seem to be avoiding her and she did not seem to see a single sentry guarding the gates.Everyone seems to be very busy and every time she would greet them they would only turn away."That's odd." she told herself. "They don't really act like this to me before."She walked around and around and even brought herself into the garden. But there was not a single person around.What was going on, she thought.She couldn't even find her friends anywhere in the Palace. She had woken up with absolutely nothing but the chirping of birds. She looked around to see if there was someone she can talk to.Yvonne wasn't there, Chaol wasn't there. Even her brother was not there."Where could they all have gone to?"She noticed that the maids were stealing glances at her. She would look at them and wave but then they would only avoid her gaze.

After being able to speak with her mother, Asty led the group to a path in the woods that led to a field of dandelions.They looked around and saw how beautiful it was. The sun was before them, and they could feel it burning through their skin, but even so— their eyes were fixed on the blanket of flowers that seemed to flow against the wind."This is so beautiful." Lana commented.Asty smiled at her. "This is where my mistress is buried.""Why isn't she buried in a proper grave?""That is because this is what she requested. That is a part of her will to be buried under the field of dandelions, chrysanthemums, and daisies. She wanted to face the sun and the skies. She wanted to look at the blanket of stars as she rested. That is what she imagined."They smiled at her and walked towards the field."I think it is better if we leave you be." Chaol told Asty, Yvonne, and Robynn.

She stared at it for a long amount of time before wondering something in her head.Chaol reached out to her head and made it rest on his shoulders."Is something troubling you?" he asked her."No nothing at all." She told him. "I was just wondering a few things.""Like what?""They are not very pleasant things." She told him and smiled. "It's best if I keep it to myself.""You can always tell me about it. I won't mind." Chaol smiled at her. "Is it because of the battle?""Yeah." she nodded. "Polo was... in pain. I didn't know that he had to go through all that that's why he became the way he was.

The villagers that survived the war still had fear lingering inside their hearts. But nevertheless, even if there were fear and there was uncertainty, villagers continued to place their trust in the king. The king provided them with all the construction materials that they will be able to use to fix their houses that were crushed and broken during the war. While the villagers were singing their songs as they hammered their walls, a man came and frantically told them about the good news."Everyone, everyone! King is holding a celebration in the square!

There is no greater pain in the world than to lose someone you love.It is a pain that will be permanent inside your heart and will linger around for so many years. And she was not sure if she was prepared for that. Everything was so sudden, so fast, so abrupt. Did not know what to do or what to expect. The betrayal, the revelations, and then suddenly turning back the tables to prove that the ones she thought were the criminals were actually the innocent ones.She crouched on the ground and reached out to his cold body. What else can she expect? He is gone and he will never come back to her. The eclipse was an unfair event. The people viewed it as equal, but to her, it was only another cruel event.

Polo, who was now one of the known people in their village, was helping them with the fences against the wolves."Is that all for today?" the builders asked one another."Yeah I think so." he then looked at Polo. "Good work today, boy. Your wife must be so happy to have you around."A blush escaped from the male's cheek. He scratched the back of his nape while looking at them. "S-She isn't my wife, yet.""So when are you, lovebirds, planning the wedding?" one of them nudged his arm.Polo chuckled hesitantly, feeling pressured at their constant teasing.
