Inside the strong build walls made of bricks and mortar that is dimly lit by a small hanging light above the semi-sphere ceiling with no windows nor door could be found, noiseless voices echoed throughout the walls. Three silhouettes of women are currently sitting around a medium-sized circled shape table made of one of the best kinds of woods, discussing seriously something with one another. Their identities are hidden inside their distinct colored cloaks.
"I guess that you have more important things to say than just a simple greeting with me, isn't it." The seemingly oldest of them spoke nonchalantly. Meaning to take no time for wasting.
"The commissions are not very decent at this point, people are not remaining to stay calm anytime soon. They are becoming more arrogant and scurrilous of their authority, causing the common people to suffer and it's because of not having any rulers to give orders in this kingdom." The youngest of them replied urgently.
"But aren't we still here to give orders. Didn't we make decrees of settlement with them, haven't we? Do they not fear having punish for their actions and attitudes or they're just simply taking us lightly like fools?" The older one said, annoyance visible in her voice.
"We did decree for the settlement of orders but we don't have the power to punish them literally but could only give them a warning and yet we can't be ensured that they'll abide to it, don't we? Unless, the majority of the common people seek justice themselves, aside from that, we can't punish them without any concrete evidence of their doings. Because they'll file for fairness of rights if we do that." The youngest explained with a speck of irritation in her voice.
The older one didn't say anything further about it, because of what the youngest of them said was the fact that they all know. They mostly hold power, but it's not the same without the Royal Family as the main pillar of the kingdom. Now, they just became as they are in the inscriptions.
All the while, the oldest remains silent. Probably, thinking for a solution to the problem after hearing the main events in this time, that is always mostly the same after the past years. She was contemplating what to do, but circumstances pushed her to make the most important decision in history, for the kingdom.
"Then let's determine the Kingdom's fate...today. We are left with nothing right at this moment, but to make the last decision that we never thought to ever do but the people's sake is our main concern forever, and as well for our Kingdom's well existence. Even it's full of uncertainty, we must find the next beholder of the Royal Crown." the oldest woman said full of emotion. Her voice loud enough to hear.
The two women were stunned by what was said, but they know it's for the best. So they nod their heads feeling unstable as well, but they did it as an agreement to conclude the final decision making.
"So for this day forth, after fifteen years of finding the lost last descendant of the Athlas Royal Family, from the Highest Royal Council, we decree to find for the next suitable Heir of the Athlas Royal Kingdom's Crown. The examination will start after the next full moon and will end after a year of temporary stay in the Palace as part of the evaluation. Everyone from the noble families that is of the age of fifteen to sixteen shall be picked to be one of the nominees to be the first new ruler of one of the most prominent kingdoms in the Pecullium World, the kingdom of Athlas."
As the decree was made and announced to the royal court and was soon unravel throughout the other fractions of the Pecullium World. Commotions of surprises and excitement arise at all lands and tides. Nobilities turned excited but cautious with one another for the Crown's next Heir, they now became strong rivals for great superiority. The other royal families from different kingdoms are feeling dubious about any of this, but stay quietly. While the common people of the kingdoms are waiting for what's about to happen. They didn't know, that this event is one of the most historic things that will ever happen because the Royal Families' secret shall be unfolded as the Coronation nears.
Chapter 2....Myst's Point of ViewA sunny and cloudy sky floating above this summertime of the year, heat radiating everything in sight. Birds chirping and chatting with one another on the tree branches while the cool breeze sways the green bountiful leaves. Plants looking all radiant too. Nature gives a fresh and calming feeling out here. As for all the townspeople, the adults are doing all different household chores, and the children playing along altogether with their friends.Everything seems so lively and joyful this day.This is how things usually happen in this little town on the outskirts of Lheda. It is on the western side of Phirellium that is widely full of rural landscapes. Very simple and not very well known b
I sometimes ask myself, how did I become friends with them again? Oh right. It's because they are the ones that saw me in my most vulnerable state and they comforted me at 'that' times. I can't help but sigh, remembering those moments. We were very young back then and easy to tame but hard to accept painful situations.My feelings were very fragile at those times and they're the ones who were there for me. Even though we quarrel sometimes because of our differences in many aspects, we still find ourselves ending up laughing at our doings. As time goes by our friendship grows more and we happen to depend on one another. We welcome each other like family. And like me, they have their unhappiness and sufferings. And perhaps because of our awareness of each other's flaws and past, unknowingly we found the warmth and comfort that we lack and seek, which we eventually found from the three of us.&n
Before noon came, we finally arrived at the capital city of the kingdom of Lheda that implies happiness. We came by the use of a limousine as the travel vehicle used by all nobles, which makes my friends noble themselves. Brylle is the son of the Duke and Rhyme is the son of the Marques in this kingdom.The three of us are sitting inside altogether, with the chauffeur of course. Both of them sitting on the opposite side while I face them. The inside is cool because of the air conditioner, but it's not too cold. Well, this limousine is owned by Brylle's family, and both Rhyme and I receive a ride this time. Rhyme has his limousine but choose to stay with us because he said it is much more convenient and fun to go all together on one ride. Brylle didn't mind and so do I, after all, I'm just getting a free ride myself. So all is fine.
Soon after, the doctor came for my aid and check my condition diligently. As for my friends they stepped aside to let the doctor do his work while their faces full of concern. After a couple of minutes or so, the doctor finally finished what he needed to do and he handed me a bottle of blue-colored liquid and made me drank all of it. Then he gently wiped the dried blood on my nose and gave me a tiny red pill that I ate up obediently. After taking the tiny red pill I slowly felt much better now. My head doesn't hurt much anymore unlike before and my breathing became even again. But I still feel impassive, why is that? Or perhaps I'm just tired because of the house chores? But I never felt this way before. "You're good for now I believe. It must be because of this too much heat that it caused you to bleed and have an intense headache. This
MYSTA week already have passed since the sudden seizure that I felt. And because of it, our trip together didn't happen on that day and we got back to my house sooner than planned.And so far so good, I didn't experience anymore nosebleed although sometimes I felt this unexplainable pain within my heart and it's occurring constantly, it's faint but it's lingering for a period of time, it's suffocating and rapidly beating in some cases however, I could still endure it.As for Brylle and Rhyme, if they actually knew it? it's best to not tell a soul about it for now. I don't want to increase their concerns right at this moment because lately I noticed that they appear to be so busy in particular times.Numerous personal daily routines of mine differed drastically and it is very way to different than the usual way of my daily life before.Those two friend of mine, unknow
Dumped?Thrown away?Rejected?Is that it?"What?" I asked surprised and turned my head to look into Brylle, seeing that his complexion was badly darken and down. Then, it must be true. Brylle had been thinking about this matter? That he got rejected?Probably, more likely yes. But since when did he fall in love with a girl? I thought he had a phobia against woman, specifically to strangers, guess I was wrong then. Regardless to any of that, how come no one told me about it? How very...unexpected.Well nevermind that. Anyways, It's about time already for his age to meet his other half, especially as one of the high prominent figures in the society. But I hope he could find the right one for him, I don't want him to feel sad nor get hurt."KEEP.YOUR.MOUTH.SHUT." Brylle said to him, emphasizing each words, his face have that deathly dark shade, while
Brylle's trail of thoughts wonder to all width and length, quickly thinking who would be able to help them in this urgent situation while being cautious and secretive at the same time. They can't risk anything that has to do about Myst's uncertain and unique condition. It must be someone who knew how to obey him without any complain and most importantly one who's an effective and skillful healer. But who?"We need to hurry! Myst can't handle this pain any much longer, we must–!" Rhyme said anxiously with furrowed brows. He's greatly worried for Myst's well being. Right now, Myst is really deathly pale and her skin becoming cold as ice! He feared that something unexpectedly bad would happen any moment from now. Merely thinking about it, he felt a pang hitting in his chest. He can't take it!"I'm still thinking!" Brylle said, barely holding all his sanity from wrecking everything in sight. He felt his emotions becoming unstable. All he c
Chapter 9"How is she?" Brylle quickly ask the middle aged doctor that came out from the room where Myst lay down unconscious. The whole time when the doctor was doing the treatment he and Rhyme waited outside obediently and sitted silently however they are restless and thought that every second seem to be too long.What had happened to Myst? This point bugged them like crazy this whole time. They are very worried but helpless at the same time, who told them to be useless, can't even take care of their friend with them nearly present? They were ignorant and strong headed like a spoiled child before, which led to this unpleasant situation. Otherwise, then maybe Myst would have not suffer any grievances till she fainted due to intense pain. They know they were in the wrong, it's their fault. This time, if anything else happened to Myst, they will...They regretted.
