After our morning walk, Ragnar and I came back to the house. I heard voices coming from inside. It looks like they are discussing about something. "It looks like we have a guest." Ragnar said looking at the side. I followed the direction where Ragnar was looking and saw a new horse that was surely not ours, tied up with the other horses that belongs to Ragnar’s men.Ragnar and I walked inside the house hand in hand. Once inside I saw mother and father seating side by side on the couch while Philip and Kyler were standing by the sides. And there was someone seating on another chair a man, with his back facing us. He had pale crimson hair that I have surely seen before. "Marvin?" I called out at first, not sure if he really was Bob’s father. And then the man turned around to greet me with a smile. "I greet your majesties." Marvin stood up and bowed before Ragnar and I. "It is nice to see you again Marvin." Ragnar greeted. "It is good to see you again Marvin." I also greeted with a
[Ragnar’s POV]After the map was made visible using Marvin’s knowledge, they were able to pinpoint the location of the four parts of the key. With this, they can go on a journey to find and retrieve these parts so that it will not get into the hands of bad people, mainly Queen Fiona.All the people in the room were in awe looking at the projected map when Isabella’s mother looked at our way with a worried expression. "Isabella, are you alright?" It was mother in law that realized something was wrong with my wife. "You look pale."All the people around paid attention to Isabella and I did the same. I looked beside me and saw that she was clearly in pain and discomfort. I was about to ask her what was wrong when I felt that my head was in pain. It was a pain that I have never had before. It was as if there was like a sharp nail drilling a hole in my head. I held my head, and my eyesight started to get blurry. "Isabella !" Mother and father in law shouted in surprise. That was when I s
"You heard a voice your majesty?" Marvin turned his attention to me. "W-What did it say." "It said that ’Both of you will decide the future of this continent what will it become.’." I said. "What do you think this means and who do you think that voice came from?" I asked.Marvin was astonished at first and then come to a deep thought. After some minutes passed, he looked at me with a serious expression. "Your majesty, what I am about to say are purely my thoughts. I also am not quite sure, and I am just telling my hypothesis on the facts that I have just witnessed." He said. "Go on." I gave Marvin permission to share his hypothesis to me. "I am guessing that the voice that you have heard is from the mighty one himself." Marvin said, gauging my reaction. "The almighty one you say?" I repeated. "You think it was a prophecy from him?" I asked. "Rather than a prophecy, I think it was the last words the almighty One embedded in these pendants." Marvin said. "I believe that the penda
Isa , what’s the matter?" I heard Ragnar’s voice. "My love, please wake up." I can hear Ragnar calling out to me with a worried tone. My eyelids still felt heavy, but I still tried to open my eyes. The first person I saw was Ragnar, looking at me worriedly. "E-Erik?" I asked in curiosity as to why he was looking at me worriedly. "Are you okay, my love?" He asked. His huge palm cupped my cheek I can feel the heat radiating from his touch. "Hmm... yes, I think so." I said doubtful. I tried to remember what happened before waking up, but all was hazy. "W-What happened?" I asked curiously.I saw Ragnar sighed in relief. "You were crying in your sleep that I was worried you are having a nightmare." He gave me a reassuring smile that all was fine. "A nightmare?" I asked. "I think I was dreaming, but I can’t seem to remember what it was."I knew I had a dream, but even if I tried to recall what I dreamt about, nothing was coming to me. "It’s okay if you cannot remember. I am just relie
Remembering the projected map, the positions of the fragments are far from one another. There are four fragments in total and their positions are far apart, not to mention that the continent is vast and wide. Having to go from one point to another might take us a lot of time. "The locations are far apart from one another." Ragnar said. "And so, we have decided to break into two groups."Having to break into two groups seems quite feasible with such a vast area of land to cover. "We will talk more tomorrow with the others." Ragnar said. "For now, you need to rest. I also need some rest." He smiled at me.Looking at Ragnar’s face, he seemed quite tired. He must have been worried sick about me the whole time I was unconscious, and he had to also plan the next move. "I am sorry." I said. "You are so busy, and I have to burden you more." "What are you saying?" Ragnar asked. "I am your husband. It is just right that I worry about you my wife." "Hmm." I nodded in understanding. "I will
These past few days, we have prepared for our departure. We bought everything that will be needed in the journey to find the fragments of the key to unlock the forbidden magic that was sleeping underneath the eastern sea. As planned, we have divided into two groups. The other group was led by Kyler while the other one was led by no other than Ragnar himself. Ragnar tried to persuade me these past few days to stay behind and wait for him, but I was firm with my decision in joining this journey. It was now dawn, the sun has not yet risen and the surroundings are silent. This was the best time for our departure. The other group led by Kyler departed the village two days earlier, knowing that their destination is much farther and dangerous than ours. "Are you ready my wife?" Ragnar whispered into my ears from behind. I was startled because he was not there a minute ago. "Y-Yes..." I was able to compose myself after being startled. Ragnar wrapped his arms around my waist and rested h
We have set out of the village before the sun rose. The weather was fine, and our pace was not fast and not slow. I was afraid at first that my mediocre riding skills will slow down the group, but fortunately I was able to keep up with their pace. "How are you feeling?" Ragnar who was riding by my side asked. "I am doing fine." I smiled at him in reply.But in truth, my body was starting to get tired. My legs are starting to get sore and numb. We were riding for at least more than two hours now, not that long since we left the village. I opted to keep what I was feeling all to myself. I was thinking that this voyage is quite important, and time is of the essence. "Let’s take a quick break." Ragnar said. "Tell the men from behind." He ordered Victor who was riding behind us. "Yes, your majesty." Victor replied curtly and turned his horse around to convey Regaleon’s orders. I was at a loss why we are stopping here now. We only started to travel just a few hours ago. I was expecting
The journey has been smooth so far. Days have gone by since we left the village on the border of Wales. Our first stop was at the far end of the country, near the shores of the eastern sea. Judging by our pace, it will take at least weeks until we arrive at our destination. I have been improving at horse riding thankfully. I still get sore after long period of time, but rather than take a rest every time I feel tired, Ragnar would let me ride with him. I am always comfortably saddled in front of him. Because of this, we at least quicken our pace of the journey. "It looks like we won’t get to the next village before the sun sets." Ragnar muttered. I was currently riding with him and so I was able to hear him. "Probably." I replied and looked at the sky. The sky is starting to get an orange color which is an indicator that the sun was about to set. "Victor, find a nice place to camp." Ragnar gave an order. "Yes, your majesty." Victor bowed in reply. Victor took three men
