They arrived at the edge of a forest directly adjacent to Golgora, the capital of Fotia. According to her assumption, this city looks normal, not much different from cities in Lithonia.
After Nathania got off his back, Aiden returned to being human. They wore winter coats to avoid the gaze of those who might know Aiden.
"Come on!" Aiden took her hand and led her into the city.
Nathania was a little nervous because she had never entered any territory outside her kingdom. So, it could be said that this was the first time she had set foot in Fotia.
"May I take a walk in this town? will anyone notice?"
"Even though everyone here is the descendant of people who made a pact with the devil. But they don't have any special abilities, they are just humans. So, you don't have to worry!"
"Oh, I see?" instead of hearing Aiden's answer, Nathania felt much calmer because Aiden continued to hold her hand.
They walked all the way to the shopping cent
"Forgive me! forgive me, Your Majesty!" Queen Alexandra wept hysterically as the King decided on the appropriate punishment for her after courageously tricking the king and everyone else.The king stared coldly, his sapphire eyes shining, showing unstoppable anger. The decision was unanimous, Queen Alexandra and her loyal servants must accept the hanging that will be carried out in the middle of the city."Forgive me, Your Majesty ... forgive me ...!" the Queen was hysterical, cried and prostrated before the King who did not even turn his head, let alone accept his apology.Lithonia was in an uproar, knowing that the crown prince they had known was Princess Nathania in disguise, while Prince Nathan had died due to illness. It was not only the King and Queen Mother who were disappointed by the Queen's lies. However, all the people of Lithonia felt the same anger and now, they couldn't wait to see first-hand 'the greatest con man' in the hanging in the middle of city
Nathania looked at herself in the mirror. She felt very empty, after realizing that she finally decided to return to the palace and leave Aiden.She touched the alexandrite stone coiled around her neck. After she chooses to return to being Nathan and continues to pretend until the end, all their lies are exposed and her life will end on the gallows.Nathania opened the bedroom door and walked through the palace corridor. The servants who saw her in the palace, were shocked and hysterical after realizing that the crown prince had returned after missing for two weeks."Prince Nathan has returned ... Prince Nathan has returned ...!" exclaimed a soldier who announced very important news that it could be heard in the ears of the King, Queen and Queen Mother who were in the palace dining room."The crown prince has returned?" asked the king when a soldier reported the news of Nathania's return to him."Yes, Your Majesty! Prince Nathan has returned. We sa
"Nathan, I'm home! are you waiting for me? Nathan, I'm sorry I just left without telling you!" she said in front of her twin brother's gravestone covered in snow.Nathania knew that what Nathan wanted was her happiness in being herself. However, to achieve that happiness is not something easy.After convincing herself that only with Aiden would she get that true happiness. But, she easily let go because she was not ready to bear the guilt for leaving her mother."Prince Nathan?" behind her, Judy stood, staring at her with a sad face and wet eyes.Nathania turned her head, trying to give Judy the smile she always gave every time they met. However, only a sad look and a bitter smile could be given and it made Judy feel very sad.Judy walked over to her, trying hard to hold back the tears of longing because she was overshadowed by worries at the figure she thought she would never see again forever."I'm glad Your Majesty is back home," her voic
"Haven't we gone too far, Your Majesty? we can't go back today if we don't go home now!" said Joan. Rupert who was riding beside him, agreed silently.They have been gone for three days, they should return to the capital today according to the king's orders. However, the stubborn Nathania wouldn't stop before she explored any further.They were only 30 miles outside the capital Safir, meaning they were far from what she expected. Nathania who led the way was silent and stared at the steep road. Seeing her not giving a response, made Joan and Rupert have no other choice but to keep up with her.Five minutes of silence and the only sound heard was the footsteps of the horses they were riding. The sky which had been very bright since morning, was slowly clouding. Joan began to worry because they had traveled quite a distance without the escort of experienced palace soldiers.Even though the 'crown prince' who was in front of them was doing a disguise wearing the
"Thank you for the food! very delicious!""Thank God if you like it, I'm very happy!" Grandma Lori smiled when she saw Nathania and her friends finish the food she was serving.Both Nathania, Joan and Rupert thought the same thing. Although the only food served was toast, mashed potatoes and mushroom soup, it was very delicious."Grandmother!" she said calling. Even though she was a little hesitant about the question she wanted to ask, Nathania would be very sorry if she left this place without knowing why an old woman lived alone and separated from the other residents? it was very lumpy in her mind."Yes? do you need something?""No! that's not it, I want to ask something. Do you mind, Grandma?""No! you can ask anything, no problem!" she said with a smile. Even though she allowed to ask, somehow Nathania was suddenly unsure of her question."Do you really live alone? aren't there your children or grandchildren, Grandma?" she asked.
"Your Majesty? Your Majesty?" Joan and Rupert tried to call her who was again daydreaming while riding a horse."Your Majesty ...!""Huh? ye ... yes? what's wrong? you call me?""Are you tired, Your Majesty? we can rest a little!""No! I'm fine! besides, we have to be back before midnight. I don't want you to get into trouble because of me!""But, Your Majesty. It is dangerous to ride a horse while daydreaming, you may fall!""Sorry, I won't be daydreaming anymore!""You don't have to worry about us, Your Majesty! we are honestly very happy that you have chosen us to go on a trip like this. What a pleasure! Owen will surely be very jealous!" said Joan. Rupert smiled in agreement."Is that so? thank goodness! I had an objection to you guys!""We don't mind at all! we're just worried because we're not soldiers who can protect Your Majesty like Owen!""If I brought soldiers, I wouldn't know what really happened outsi
"What did I do? why did I do that?" she thought. Nathania began to not understand, what happened to her.Sometimes, she feels like someone is leading her to do something or as if she will know what to do and what choices he should make. Although that doesn't always happen, it really affects her.The spring air, where flowers bloomed in the garden, began to fill her chest. From where she stood, Nathan's grave was clearly visible. Right near a lush tree and surrounded by a blue forget me not waste."I want you to always smile, even though I'm no longer with you. Can you fulfill my wish?"Nathan's last wish he made the last time they came to this park."Nathan, how am I supposed to live without you?"Nathania inhaled and exhaled slowly, she felt empty. The painting of Nathan which she finished painting that day, should have been given to Nathan, actually she would give it as a birthday present. But Nathan had not seen it yet.Nathania went into
In the horse-drawn carriage that carried her to Edafos, Nathania looked out over the vast meadow. In her mind, Nathania still doesn't know, what exactly is the purpose of this peace agreement being carried out? the three great kingdoms that had been sworn enemies for 1000 years, suddenly tried to negotiate with each other by visiting each other.Peace is a very good thing, especially for a kingdom that has fought wars over and over again just to prove who is the most powerful. That is ridiculous, considering that the three great kingdoms that fought each other used to have the same ancestor."What's all this doing? what is this meeting for?""Do you still not understand? of course to create peace!""Is that so? we can all really make peace and visit each other with happy hearts?""What do you think, Nathan?""Nothing, Your Majesty! I just want to know, why we are doing this because we did it a while ago. But we have nothing to gain but a deepening
