Dolphins stood around the portal as it opened in the middle of the ocean, their heads towards the opening as if waiting for something to jump out or to jump in. The rain queen floated above the portal with an unconscious Thabiso, his body beaten beyond recognition and he lost a lot of blood. If he were to be taken to the hospital now, he would surely die before he gets there as his life is hanging by a thread. His breathing barely audible and his heart rate lower than that of a vampire. The portal finally opened wide and the water around it started to settle and calm down. The queen floated and lowered herself into the portal as the dolphins started moving around it as if scouting for an enemy. When she was finally in, the portal started to close on the surface while underneath it was moving in an incredibly high speed, taking the queen and a barely alive prince of BaTloung straight to the entrance of the mystical kingdom. The fallen queens who awaite

 Bakoena KingdomThe chief priest stood outside the throne room, chanting and praising the Bakoena ancestors, his bag of bones hanging on the side on this shoulder with the sling going down his hip and moving around as he paced granting and chanting the Bakoena clan names. Inside the throne room the tension was raising with each passing minute, as they anxiously waited for the chief priest to enter and deliver the message from the gods.

" Ask the maidens to bring me bathing water, I will be in my chamber" the guard bowed his head and went without a word, when the king is like this no one dared say anything to him. The guard ran to the where the maidens were, " One of you must take bathing water to the king, you will find him in his chamber" he then walked away bumping into the queen. " My apologies my queen I was not looking to where I was going" he quickly apologised to the queen, but her concern was that he has never acted this way so surely something was wrong. "What is happening?" She asked worried that something might have happened to the king. “My queen, the meeting the king and I went to didn’t go well, I don’t have all the details but

 Bakoena KingdomThe next day prince Tokelo woke up early to prepare for his journey to the palace since he did not make the journey the previous day. He did his morning routine and put his travelling bag in the boot and drove to the palace. After an hour and half, he arrived at the palace and the guards opened for him. His personal guard came to help him with his bag. “Sunrise greetings Tiisetso” the prince greeted his guard; they have always been close as they grew up together and are around the same age.
