The Impact of Her (ALL SEASONS) ~ Chapter Twenty-Eight - Season II ~
As I waited for Nana Olsa, I indulged myself with a giant cake. It sat in the middle of a table near Nana Olsa’s station. It was too delicious to share, so I preferred to eat it on my own. I was too occupied with the cake when someone suddenly asked me from behind, “Robert, what are you doing?” I turned to see Nana, shocked. “Oh, hello, Nana,” I greeted as I moved back an inch. She moved closer to me. A horrified expression rose on her face. Her eyes widened as she asked, “Robert, what have you done to the cake?” “It was on the table and nobody was paying attention to it. So, I thought I could have a few bites,” I replied. “Would you like to have some?” I offered. “Nobody is supposed to touch that because it wasn’t supposed to be touched!” Nana answered as she looked at the entire cake. “What do you mean? Isn’t this supposed to be for dinner?” I asked, baffled. “This was for dinner but this was for the lords! Your father invited them over to celebrate their success in their tra

After she entered the room, I cleared my throat and continued reading. “Robert!” she called out to me, almost screaming. Her voice echoed throughout the room. “Robert, dear!” she continued, her shoes patted loudly onto the floor as she quickly approached me. I sighed as I put the book down. With hesitation, I turned in her direction. “Oh, jolly! I never thought I’d find you here. I haven’t seen you anywhere in the castle, either,” she remarked as she stood in front of me. “I didn’t know you loved to read. James mentioned that you never liked the library.” “As a fellow monarch, I don’t doubt that you know the most common room in a library. And that silence must be observed inside. Even an uneducated person knows that through common sense. You, of all people, should know better,” I said, crossing my arms. I added, “I should be the one asking why are you here? Elizabeth said you were taking care of Mother.” “Oh, forgive me for disturbing the peaceful atmosphere,” she replied as she
The Impact of Her (ALL SEASONS) ~ Chapter Thirty - Season II ~
Back in my quarters, I made myself comfortable as I read once more. My back rested upon the headboard, with a few pillows behind my back to keep myself supported. Elizabeth was no longer in my room when I returned. Perhaps, she joined James for dinner. So, I was more than ecstatic to have some peace. However, my door opened and upon looking, Elizabeth was here again. “Hello, dear sister.” “Oh, hello, little brother,” she smiled as she closed the door, “I didn’t know you were already back.” She was about to walk towards me when she froze. Her eyes landed on my hands. “Am I seeing this clearly? Is that a book in your hands?” she asked, amazed and in disbelief. “Unfortunately, yes,” I smiled proudly. “This book has proven me wrong. Everything I perceive about reading is completely removed by this,” I explained as she approached me. “Well then, I couldn’t be more proud of you, dear one,” Elizabeth smiled as she sat beside me. “You finally have something better to do, other than being

“Hello, my dear boy,” she smiled as we met halfway. On her left hand, she carried a black, metal lantern whilst her right hand clutched onto her cloak. “Nana, what are you doing here at this time of the night? You can get lost,” I said, worried. She chuckled. “Robert, you must have forgotten that I know this maze like I know the back of my hand. I’m one of the people who planned this maze. Therefore, the chances of me getting lost is none,” Nana explained. “Nana, even if you know it from the inside out, it’s still dangerous. Especially, for someone your age,” I protested. I continued, “You are inside the maze, all alone. Someone can easily sneak from behind you and do something horrible.” “Son, I am more than capable of taking care of myself. You underestimate me too much,” she answered as she held onto my arm. “What brings you here?” she then asked as we walked away from the arc. “I saw your lantern from my balcony. I didn’t know it was you. But I just had to make sure who is ta

“How are you feeling, Mother?” I asked as I helped her sit up. I gently laid Mother’s back against that headboard of her bed. I then put a few pillows to support her back. “I feel weaker as more days pass by,” Mother sighed, her eyes closed as she winced. “Mother,” I sat beside her, holding her hand, “I implore you to give me permission to find the cure,” I begged as I looked straight into her eyes. “Robert, your Aunt Bethilda is already giving me her herbal treatments. She puts it in her tea so I won’t have to taste the bitterness of it,” she replied, taking a pause every now and then to catch her breath. She was so weak, she couldn’t say a single sentence without panting right after. “Mother, I don’t care if she has her own methods to get rid of your illness. It is clear that it’s not of any help with your case,” I hissed. “Please, place your trust in me. Allow me to find the cure that the Medicine King prescribed. I’ll start looking for it today.” “Bethilda said that her herba
The Impact of Her (ALL SEASONS) ~ Chapter Thirty-Three - Season II ~
I stood at the entrance of the forest, arriving at the foot of the mountain. My mind still wondered as to where Laura was. When I went to the hills, the entrance to it was barricaded. The people who guarded the blockade said that bandits entered the city and they were preventing a swift escape for them. For certain, Laura couldn’t be there. I could only wonder if she was safe. I shook my head as I tried to remove those thoughts from my mind. Now wasn’t the time to think about her. I had to focus on my mission and that was to get the ledoras herb. I took a deep breath and slowly trotted into the forest. ~*~*~*~ Bird chirped from afar. The sun rays enlightened the faint path as it pierced through the leaves of the tall trees. Rustling from the ground was evident. And squirrels scurried from tree to tree. I hopped off of Lady and walked slowly as I examined all the plants on the ground. The Medicine King provided a brief description of the plant. It was a good thing that I visited
The Impact of Her (ALL SEASONS) ~ Chapter Thirty-Four - Season II ~
We had walked for quite some time now. All I saw were endless miles of trees and everything that was green. But, suddenly, we arrived at a place that I thought only existed in myths. Those tales that were told to us to make us sleep. “And we have arrived,” the woman said as she struck her staff onto the grass-covered ground. “The heart of the forest.” I slowly stepped forward. My mouth hung open in disbelief from what I was seeing. Faint sunlight shone through the leaves from the towering trees. Different flowers surrounded us. To our right was a small waterfall with a narrow river that cascaded past us. Even more birds sang in the air. I was about to walk further when the woman stopped me, grabbing me by my shoulder. “What’s the matter?” I asked as I was brought back from my sense of wonder. “Have you ever been in this kind of environment? The kind of surrounding where everything is too beautiful, it is beyond belief?” she asked. As a matter of fact, no. Why?” I replied. She s

I barged into the room, the doors swung open and hit the walls behind them. A loud bang echoed throughout the room. “Robert!” Bethilda exclaimed. “I didn’t know that you were already here.” I paid no mind to her and walked directly towards Mother. “I have your medicine, Mother,” I smiled as I sat beside her. I kissed her forehead before I showed the ledoras plant, still wrapped within a leaf. “Is this real?” Mother asked as she looked at me with pride. “Yes, Mother. It is indeed the ledoras plant,” I answered, carefully opening the leaf. “This is what the Medicine King told you to take. I asked him about it and now, I found it for you.” “How does it work?” she asked, eager to take the herb. I then explained, “You can take it as it is or we can brew it. However, the guardian of this plant said it’s better to eat it. I planned to brew it but I didn’t want to lessen the strength of its healing extract. You don’t have to worry about chewing. The plant is soft enough to eat.” Mother
