The beginning of the journey.
The Morning far from noon still sounded beautiful, the chirping of the bird which could be heard earlier still resonated in the ears, the sonorous environnt made the flowers dance, the wind kissed him gently to showcase its jealousy.
Aurelion’s gaze was solely focused on the central road. Awaiting a sight of the marvelous golden chariot, shaped like blooming a lotus petals, a sight to behold. The chariot was spear headed by marvelous seven white draconiffs horse, a breed of magical horses.
The Mansion was shining in the back, radiating the sunshine like a glass castle in snowfall.
While in such a beautiful scenery, the only thing which Aurelion was concern of, was sothing else entirely.
"Huh, that doesn’t look right."
Lyra noticed that his focus was shifted, after keeping her eyes on him for a while, she finally asked.
"Your highness, Are you searching for sothing?"
Aurelion paused and then turned.
"Ahh, yeah, right."
"Where is Sally? Did you inform it about where to gather?"
Then, he pondered and it hit him.
"Wait, did we forget my salamande—, I an Sally in the training grounds." He yelled with shock.
"WE DID, RIGHT?"
"WE TOTALLY FORGOT IT IN THE TRAINING GROUNDS." Aurelion yelled while panicking.
Lyra said the one thing which always calm Aurelion.
"Your highness, we have Hans, rember?"
A phrase which shoo aways Aurelion’s every worry and the person who makes sure that he doesn’t need to.
Aurelion calms down as usual.
"Ahh, Ooof." He sighs in relief.
"I see, so Hans handled it." He said.
"Yes, your highness. After we left, I asked you that you should leave directly to bath, rember?" Lyra said.
"Ahhh, yes. Yeah, that happened. So, what of it?" Aurelion signals her to continue.
"So, after you went to the walkway towards your bathing area. I told the other maids that they should inform Hans that you need help with a matter in training grounds. And after that—"
"Yeah, I get it. I know what would have happened after that, he must have resolved the situation and provided Sally with an accommodation or sothing." Aurelion interrupts her.
"Then, they should have been here."
Aurelion impatiently kept tapping his finger on his shoulder.
"Ohh Damn, it is taking too much ti."
"THIS HONORABLE ONE IS HERE." a voice ca.
They already knew whose voice that was, so they turned and.
"AAGH, NOW WHO ARE YOU?" Aurelion shouted.
They expected to see a huge ass red color lizard, who always arrogantly boasts about itself and sotis wags her tail like a dog but what they saw was out of their expectations.
A little girl, taller than Aurelion was standing behind them. She had deep red hair that fell in loose waves down her back, the kind of color that caught light even in shadow. Her skin was smooth and evenly toned, with a healthy warmth to it.
"Who are you? Are you lost little child?" Lyra asked this ti.
The girl turned towards Aurelion who was intently staring at her.
"What are you looking at, Clown?" She said.
"CLOWN? " Aurelion repeated.
Then turned towards Lyra.
"And who are you calling a little child?"
Aurelion gets dazzled then it hits him.
"Sally?" He asks.
"HOW DARE AN INFERIOR BEING LIKE YOU CALL THE HONORABLE ONE WITH IT’S NA, ONLY THE COZY ONE HAS THAT RIGHT." She yelled.
OH, SO SHE IS SALLY. MAN, THIS SITUATION IS GETTING MORE AND MORE CONFUSING.
"Lyra, you have loaded the cargo, right?" Aurelion asks.
"Yes, your highness." She nods.
"Then, let’s go. We are already late."
"Sally, get on fast." Aurelion instructs.
"THE HONORABL—"
"Yes, yes, the honorable one. Just get on, already." He gives a sigh.
"Stefan, take the shorter route. We are late and I do not want to spend a night at any workshop type thingy." Aurelion commands.
"Then, with your permission, your highness." Stefan the helmsman, lightly caresses his horse at the back instead of hitting them with stick like the others.
NEIGHHHH
The horse gave a long roar and started walking at high speed which was faster than non - magical horse’s running.
Lyra still was staring at Sally, who were licking her fists and curling them as if they had claws in it.
She turns towards, puts a hand in front of her month and whispers in Aurelion’s ear.
"Your highness, are you sure that it is a good idea to bring her with us?" She asked.
"Also, how long are we going to ignore about the change in her appearance." She extended.
"We are going there to know what is she, no to know what is that exactly."
"As for her change in the experience, I assu it must have sothing to do with my magic." He answered.
ANYWAYS, THE ONLY THING I FIND STRANGE ABOUT HER IS THE WORDS SHE USE.
ALSO, I AM MORE CONCERNED ABOUT MY SO CALLED FIANCE WHOSE NA—
Aurelion drew a blank.
WAIT, HER NA? WHAT WAS HER NA?
He turned towards Lyra and said.
"Lyra, what is the na of the girl they are calling my fiance?"
"Her na? Why would I know that, your highness?"
"You were chatting alone with her Majesty in the morning, I have no clue what that conversation entailed." She replied.
"Maria, yes her."
"She must have told you sothing." He reiterates.
"The only thing the head maid inford of was that her Majesty won’t be attending the breakfast at the table. Nothing else."
AHHH, HOW COULD I BE SO STUPID? I DIDN’T EVEN ASK FOR ANY DETAILS BECAUSE OF THE HEAT OF THE THINGS.
Aurelion blad his rage.
"At least, I know that I might et her at Uncle Caelion’s workshop."
"And even I didn’t, I will make sure that I take out all the details from Uncle Handso." Aurelion said to himself.
The journey to finding answer to unsolved questions had begun. Now, only ti could tell if this takes a turn for good or bad.
