THETIA KESTLE
The last three years have been intense and emotional for the Kestle family, as well as the royal family. The children had grown up well, a little too fast for the parents' liking. Lowis was now eight years old. The little angel was just 1.5 meters tall; his hair was getting longer and longer and he refused to let the servants cut it off. At the age of six, as with all noble and bourgeois children, it was the beginning of education. Lowis had Pierre-Marie Sylvestre appointed as his tutor. He was a man in his thirties, with black curly hair, a face marked by time and eyes sparkling with passion. He was originally from the Kingdom of Duaples, located in the South of Edios. He was one of the best tutors in his country, and it was King Harlan VI who recommended him to Hughes. This man was strict but never c

░ The Azure Castle, Ashton, Kestle Kingdom, Edios░ Tuesday, August 10, 1248░ At 10:10 amTHETIA KESTLEI was with Lowis in the library of the castle, watching him draw and I had fun copying exactly what he was doing.He was really good at drawing, I was a bit jealous because I didn't really know how to do the things that Father and Mother asked me to do. However, the most surprising thing was that I was never reprimanded, even if I didn't meet their expectations, unlike Jane. When she was with her tutor, for example, and Father decided to join them with me behind him, the atmosphere was constantly heavy and everyone was shouting and arguing. Whenever that happened, I would slip away without anyone noticing and only come back when the tension had subsided.- "Brother, I can't do what you're doing!"I said in a pained expression- "It's normal, you're still little Theti

I loved learning with them, they had a strong culture about the world as well as books, which interested me the most. What I liked the most was that they took the time to explain everything to me in the smallest and most detailed way, even if it could take hours or even days. According to Angela, it was very rare for a child to start learning before he was six, if not seven, and I was only five. Keith constantly reminded me to cherish my intelligence and maturity because only a few children were able to process and assimilate theses or math methods so quickly. One day, I overheard my two tutors talking to my parents and telling them that I was a prodigy and that later on, many families would send them requests to

Sir Keith!"I shouted as I ran behind him.When he heard me, he stopped and turned around. Once at his level, I caught my breath because with my small legs, it was difficult for me to follow him, he was walking too fast for me. He asked me what I wanted because he was on his way to the library to prepare and organize my math lesson for this afternoon. Mathematics was not my strong point, but I understood pretty much everything we were discussing. As with Angela, it was clear that he was very passionate about what he was teaching. In addition to math, he taught me his native language and I loved it! Discovering new cultures and languages was very interesting. Sometimes I would say a few sentences during meals and my family would applaud me, and that would put me in

I respected his opinion on peasantry, but it frustrated me that he was so closed-minded and didn't even try to put himself in his people's shoes. When he said that most people in this world felt the same way, I wondered if my family was a part of it; I hoped with all my heart that they were not. I hesitated to ask them, I was afraid they would find me strange. But keeping my doubts to myself was not the way to get answers.- "Is it true that most people think that peasantry is an underclass, that we can control at our ease?"My whole family stopped eating and looked at me surprised by my question. At the same time, I don't think a five-year-old child would ask this kind of question, especially during a me

Still with my eyes half closed, they washed me, dressed me and took me to the dining room, where the good smell of warm bread filled the room. Only my father was sitting at the table, my mother and my siblings were probably sleeping. As I ate my lunch, I saw Angela walk in and sit at the table.-"Hello Angela! How are you?"I asked her with a grin on my face.- "Hello Thetia, I'm fine, although a little tired".- "By the way, why did the servants wake me up so early?"- "I have something to do with it"Angela admitted;"since your education is progressing very quickly and to congratulate you, I have decided

This time we will focus on the theme of betrayal, with the most famous work that anyone knows: "The Betrayal of the Ocean" by Milton Barr".- "I learned about this book at the castle; it seems to be Mother's favorite. But it's tough for a child to grasp the meaning, according to her".- "Your mother is right. Nonetheless, if I consider your academic abilities, which are superior to those of the other children, I am sure that you can comprehend the sense of the word betrayal. But first, I'd like to know: "With what you've learned from your lessons with Keith and myself, what concept, what sense can you give to the word betrayal?"- "I'll say it happens whe

She gave it to me but I did not feel like opening it directly, I wanted to wait for my family to be with me. The same maid took me to the dining room, where the other members were. As for Angela, she told me that she was going to take a rest.-"Dear Thetia Kestle. You are invited to Prince Harlan VII Vassethier's cake party on Friday, January 11 at 2:15 pm.

Not knowing what to do because of the stress, I started to play with my fingers, waiting for him to ask me a question to fill the silence.

░ The Azure Harbour, The Kestle Kingdom, Edios ░ Unknown date ░ Around 12 am THETIA KESTLE I was standing on the docks of the Azure port, located in the south of the Kestle Kingdom. This port was one of the busiest parts of the southern Kingdom. Ships of all shapes and sizes were moored at the docks, and the sound of shouting sailors and passers-by filled the air. As I approached, I could see the masts of the ships reaching for the sky, proudly waving the flags of various nations. The cargo ships were the most numerous, carrying goods such as spices, cloth, precious metals and prisoners. The docks were crowded with busy people, carts and crates. Merchants bustled around their ships, supervising the loading and unloading of their goods. Peddlers, craftsmen and thieves tried to sell their wares and services as well, while fishermen came to trade their freshly caught fish. The smell of sea salt, fish and ship's oil permeated the air. The cries of seagulls and the sound of the wav

░ The Kestle Kingdom, Edios ░ September 1259 ░ During the afternoon THETIA KESTLE The two lovers ran through the narrow streets of the villages and the dense forests around them, pursued by the soldiers of the imperial army. Their short breaths mingled with the sound of their footsteps, and their hearts beat faster and faster as they felt the soldiers getting closer. Andrew held his beloved's hand, fearing he would never see her again. His survival instinct had taken over. He had to survive! They were both exhausted and scared, but they knew they had to keep running if they wanted to stay alive. Who knows what would happen if they were captured. Andrew knew he would surely be executed, but what about Thetia? Perhaps the public would forgive her, perhaps she would be disowned by her own family and friends? However, he was sure she would stay alive. She was far too important to Edios and the imperial family. They had tried to escape from Hornsey to safety, but soon they were surro

░ The Imperial Castle, Hornsey, The Vassethier Kingdom, Edios ░ Wednesday, September 17, 1259 ░ At 3:00 pm THETIA KESTLE Angela could not believe her ears. Jane Kestle had just revealed to the Imperial family, her family and the entire court of the Emperor, that Thetia, the perfect young girl, had a lover and had no feelings for the Crown Prince. Harlan VII looked lost, sad and gloomy. He felt betrayed by the person he cherished, whom he admired every day and with whom he wanted to share his life. The tutor took advantage of the hubbub to go and warn Thetia and Andrew. She ran as fast as she could. It reminded her of a certain period in her life. She had to keep running to survive so as not to be killed. Without waiting for an answer to enter, she broke down the door and closed it with a loud bang. Both lovers gasped, anxious to have been caught in each other's arms. As Thetia was about to speak, Angela cut her off. "You must flee Edios! There's not a minute to lose!" the usual

░ The Imperial Castle, Hornsey, The Vassethier Kingdom, Edios ░ Wednesday, September 17, 1259 ░ At 2:15 pm THETIA KESTLE In a large room of the castle, Emperor Harlan VI was patiently waiting for his court to arrive. He had summoned the most important members of his kingdom to make an important announcement. All his allies had come, longing to hear what the Emperor was going to tell them. For a fortnight, Harlan VI had been preparing a grandiose reception for the occasion. He had commissioned the best musicians, the best cooks and had even recruited twice as many servants in order to finish in time. Everything had to be impeccable, he had no choice. Oriane and Lydia had taken care of the decoration and had carefully chosen the lunch menu. His family knew what he was going to say in a few hours. One of his children was much more excited and cheerful than the others. Nevertheless, he would have preferred to do it in a more intimate atmosphere and not in front of hundreds of people

The imperial family of Acora with all the children without exception. The imperial family of Dracoris who had accompanied Lowis and of course, the imperial family of Edios and all the great families of this same nation. The guests numbered in the hundreds. The streets of the capital were vibrant, festive and the mood was bright. The citizens had decorated the cobbled streets in the colours of the younger Kestle, to show their support for this new young woman coming of age. Thetia looked beautiful on her coming-of-age day. Her long dress was a fiery red and sparkled in the candlelight that decorated the castle's great hall. The puffed sleeves of the dress were made of light red satin, decorated with gold embroidery, pearls and precious stones. Her long hair had

Last Friday, her soldier Andrew and Angela returned to the castle wounded and without a carriage. As I sat at my desk, reviewing important documents, I heard quick footsteps approaching the door. Without waiting to be summoned, a panicked servant opened the door wide and rushed into the room. "Your Majesty! Your daughter, Miss Thetia, has been kidnapped!" she cried breathlessly. Shocked, I rose abruptly from my chair and looked at the servant in disbelief. "How? When? Where is she?" I asked in a trembling voice. The servant, who had caught her breath, explained that a group of bandits had attacked the convoy in which Thetia, Andrew and Angela were travelling. I clenched my fists in rage. "How dare they do that!" I exclaimed angrily. "We must find them now!" I immediately sprang into action, giving precise orders to my soldiers and dispatching mess

░ The Kingdom Kestle, Edios ░ Saturday, February 09, 1258 ░ Unknown hour THETIA KESTLE I didn't know how long it had been since the attack on my carriage. The last thing I remembered was a pain in my abdomen before I passed out. It was a brutal return to reality. I woke up violently and it took several minutes before I could breathe again. I tried to get up and move my arms, but I was tied up. The room I was in was dark and gloomy. There was a small window, but the amount of bars prevented the light from getting in. I heard droplets of water falling on a surface that was probably metal. The repetitive noise was beginning to get on my nerves. Honestly, it was the first time in my life that I was so scared. I was in an unfamiliar place, with strangers and the reason for my kidnapping was unknown to me. Although because of the situation with the Di Angelli's and Hezekiah, I assumed that this was the reason for my kidnapping. Hezekiah would demand a ransom from my family, but not in

The conversation with Olivier De Guignes had affected me. In fact, I had nightmares that night about finding myself in the shoes of my grandmother Marie, imprisoned between stone walls, where her only friends were dust and insects. And to think that she had lived this punishment almost all her life... Her tormentor was punished in some way. He died at the hands of his own flesh, which hated him for the treatment he had given his mother. It was far from a judgment, it was an execution. My grandfather Harlan V had never been judged with the dignity of the criminal and tyrant that he was. Very few people knew the truth that Marie De Guignes was locked in a dungeon and threw herself from the top, giving herself death as the only way to escape. I now realized why my parents had never told me about their parents. On both

Only the light of the moon allowed them to see where they were going. They had arranged to meet in secret. No one knew about it, not the owners of the castle, not the soldiers making their daily rounds and not the servants who were in their personal quarters resting.A young boy was walking cautiously on the freshly cut grass of this morning. He had shed his soldier's garb for clothes that were less restrictive and much lighter to wear. Nevertheless, he still had his sword at his side in case things got out of hand. This boy, only a few years older than Thetia, was what could be described as a promising swordsmanship talent. The term prodigy did not fit his current abilities, especially since for a person specializing in swordplay to be called a prodigy meant t
