NOAH— So you were the one with him all this time?— a voice asks, I turn towards the trees, and meet Andrew's worried gaze, and Márdoc, the general of Alexander's army, holding him from behind, and with a sword around his neck. — You better not try anything, the orders I have are not to care if he was once a Prince, so I think you know what can happen if you try something, don't you?— What do you mean, I'm not a Prince anymore?— Andrew asks.— You ran away and put your father, the King, in an outrageous situation, he found himself obliged to convince his nephew, Prince Heikki, Lord William and Lady Artanis to reach an agreement!— So what, the agreement was between my father and Guilhermo, I had nothing to do with it!— That's why he dismissed you, you were never committed to the kingdom, you would be a terrible King! — Márdoc says and smiles.— What you want? Who sent you here? — I ask.— I don't have the obligation to answer your questions, I don't think you have an advantage here,

NOAHI'm only twenty years old and I've waited my whole life to be able to avenge my parents' deaths, I've imagined this moment for a long time, but I never thought it could be the way I'm living it now. I always thought about the possibility of exposing that Alexander was responsible for the slaughter that killed them, but I never imagined that they were my adoptive parents, and that I was the daughter of Kings Moriam and Sattir, and finally I had to unmask Direl, who apparently it feels like lying to the bloody King, and still having to expose my true identity.— Because I am the heir of Moriam and Sattir!That sentence echoed so strongly through the throne room, it's as if I felt their presence in this place, cheering me on, pushing me forward with every speech, with every action I took before the criminals who took what was theirs, and which naturally would be my one day when they are no longer here. Unfortunately, the Machiavellian plans of these terrible men took their lives, de

NOAHIt was not easy to escape from the palace. If we didn't have Balck's help, we would be trapped in the dungeon. We had to use the palace's secret passages to get out of there, we took an alternative path to the one we usually use in order not to have the displeasure of encountering soldiers of the King, or rather, of Direl, who calls himself as such, after taking the life of Alexander. Walking through so many trees, a very narrow stretch, the sun begins to show signs of its departure, the few rays that I can still see are orange and far away, and the night already seems a reality.— It will be dark soon, I think we better hurry if we want to reach the territory today! — I speak in a worried tone, Balck pulls my arm, I look to the side, towards him.—So does that mean the King really died? And who killed him was the Wizard Direl? — he asks in a low tone.— Yeah.— And Andrew, how did he react to all of this? — Balck asks, I stop walking a little, and answer him.— Even though Alexa

NOAHDuric's words are perfect for the moment, they reflect the feeling between Balck and Yan, making everyone emotional. I try to control myself, but the tears are stronger than me, they flow down my face, especially when I see my brother crying. Emotion takes over the place when Duric concludes his speech.— Today I want to wish you all the happiness in the world, and that love lasts a long time, and continues to be the great guide of your relationship. As head of this rebellious territory, I celebrate the love of Balck and Yan, and declare them married... Be happy!They hug, exchange a peck, and everyone applauds. To think that at the time of ancient humans people of the same gender suffered prejudice for declaring their love, something like that is so outdated that I can't imagine how it was possible.Even though I'm happy with my brother's marriage and happiness, I can't stop thinking about everything that's happened in the last few weeks, and especially how strange and distant A

NOAHThe days drag on and I still have no news of Andrew's whereabouts. After that dream, I have other dreams, and I feel like he uses them to communicate with me. Today's training makes me a little tired, restless, until I see Balck from afar, and his expression doesn't look very good, he makes a sign with his hand, for me to go to him. I walk quickly, my heart beating faster than normal, I approach.— What's? Any news from… — he doesn't let me finish.— Yes, I have news from him. Can we get out of here?We leave the training site. We walked towards Balck's house, which is close to where we were. He opens the door, I go in, drag a chair, and sit at the table, while my brother does the same.— So what's new?— The soldiers have returned, and they tell Duric that there is none of the former royal family in the palace of Venas...— What do you mean, there's no one? Is the palace empty?— It's not empty, it's been occupied by a new crop of nobles who seem to support the new King...— But
