Palace basement
You will not be able to resist in life without taking a companion in your hand.
Help you in adversity, even if they abound, have an iron curtain that blocks everyone from you in your moments of weakness.
Have your first smile and help in your joy.
There is no life of happiness without a partner, even if he is in circumstances overwhelmed by sadness.
Even sadness has another taste and splendor with a heart that loves you and helps you for who you are.
Lord Robert grabbed a flame of fire in his left hand that would help him light the road in front of him, clinging to his other hand with the princess's hand with a bit of softness and trying to hurry, although he knew it was difficult for her, he looked at her kindly and then spoke:
Come on, Madam, we have to speed up the movement or we will fall captive under their hands.
That spoiled woman stopped her position after fatigue and fatigue appeared on her features from the abundance of what she had run.
Her calm, luminous features like the moonlight confirm that she has never done such a hard work in her entire life.
Princess Carmen, Princess of the Kingdom of the North, twenty-two-year-old, as white as milk, of medium height, black eyes like the darkness of the quiet night, with silver hair reaching the middle of her back.
Her royal blue dress is adorned with crystal beads that shone brightly amid the darkness in which they are present.
At the center of her waist is a belt of pure gold.
Resting with her palms on her knees barely able to catch her breath, she spoke in a stressful voice:
I can't continue anymore, Robert, I'm tired of what I got.
Please let's rest a little.
Speak with a strong physique who stands in front of it in that majestic form.
Why not he is the commander of the army of the city of the north and its most famous fighters and the fighters of the entire kingdoms of Longines.
A young man of about twenty-five, white in color, very stricken, with a strong physique to rule his harsh training as an army commander.
A calm brown beard, long hair the same color as his beard, known for his rigor in fighting and war, unlike Lena with his friends, the best one to use the sword in the city and the entire kingdom.
But we have to leave Madam, surely now they have noticed that we are not in the palace after they burned it and burned the city, they will not delay for a moment in searching for us all over it or in the mountain paths, we have to move away as far as possible.
Princess Carmen straightened up and a tear fell from her eyes.
A tear fell to comfort her in her palace and city, in her people who were horribly burned.
She comforted her in their world without any of them committing guilt for everything that happened to him.
Speaking in her crying voice, she said:
_Curse, curse on all this, curse on rule, curse on throne, curse on power, curse on greed and greed that blinds their owners and walks the earth deranged and proud like this.
Who, if they injure a person, make him overthrow in the earth ruthlessly or pathetic corruption for the condition of those who harm them.
Damn the Azo dragons that burned my people and my city.
Damn this destruction and devastation, Robert.
Lord Robert approached to wipe with his palms those beads of tears that had crept out of her eyes sadly and said:
_How can I console you and I am not before to bear what happened!
How can I tell you not to grieve when my heart breaks with sadness and sorrow for everything that happened!
But if we continue to cry for what has been missed, we will remain prisoners of our past without progress.
Our present will pass without anything new and our future will come on the margins of the past, we must end our thinking about the past from the moment it ended taking a lesson from it, and start thinking about what is coming too with caution.
Princess Carmen raised her head upwards, until their eyes met each other, as if like the soul of an eagle with its heart joined by its wings, flying it to safety.
But I can no longer continue, and I don't even know where it's headed, my chest is narrowed by this never-ending crypt as if it had no end.
He replied with a quiet smile as if trying to instill in her heart something of calm after all that had happened during the past hours:
_Her Highness the Princess knew that it was not an easy thing, and that everything that happened was not in your mind or even the king's account, but I was expecting it from the beginning, I was sure that from moment to moment Prince Kilan would decide to take over the city in any way.
So I decided to create this crypt two years ago so that it would be a smuggler for us if things went wrong.
A crypt that comes from the bottom of the royal palace leading to one of the houses of the neighboring village.
But what never came to my mind was the dreaded Azo dragon, I never imagined it would be the weapon that would kill you in the city.
Princess Carmen spoke with sorrow:
_Everything that happens from Kelan's plan, wants the king of the city, but this i***t made it a wreckage.
If Jordan hadn't come and tell us what Kilan intends to do, we and the rest of the city's residents would have been burned.
May Kilan's greed be limited to the northern city only Her Highness the Princess.
May he be content with this only and that what is going on in my head is just superstitions.
As for Jordan, we owe him our lives, anyway we don't have much left to get to the end of the crypt.
He awaits us with Laura and the soldiers who survived this brutal attack, we must act now.
_And what's going on in your head!
They are ideas, just ideas but let's put those ideas aside now and move away from this place first.
I don't know, and I don't know if it's going to be worse than we are now or not, but believe me I can't walk anymore.
Robert smiled and then turned in front of her and spoke:
_Climb on my back, I will carry you until we reach the end of the basement.
She looked at him with protruding eyes and said:
_Are you serious about what you say! How can the army chief carry someone on his back!
He spoke quietly without paying attention to her, saying:
_And without Her Highness the Princess carries! If the earth narrows down on her, my heart widens for her, and if her feet fail her, my back will support her.
Without your Highness he carries, and if her blood turns on her, I support her with my sword!
Come on, Ma'am, time passes.
Reddened as if blood had been trapped in them, she moved shyly to climb on his back, leaning her head on his shoulder, clinging to her hands around his neck without saying a single word, as if her tongue was freezing in her mouth, and his words weighed down.
Lord Robert moved onwards, carrying the princess on his back.
They were struck by the silence of speaking in tongues, the noise of words in the heart.
Princess Carmen blushed and then spoke:
_ I carry heavy on you!
Robert smiled and then answered as he continued on his way:
_What weight, Madam!
I feel like I'm carrying a weightless bird on my back, but you know what bothers me!
_What?!
_Your dress, Her Highness the Princess, I almost stumble upon it.
Princess Carmen smiled:
This is how the princesses' costume is, it's always too long, I apologize if it hurts you.
_I'm just kidding, Madam, everything belongs to you is at least my favorite.
Here we are approaching the end of the crypt.
Finally, my soul was almost cut off by the lack of air here, but where will you go next?!
We will move south of the kingdoms of Longines, to your father, His Majesty the King.
Princess Carmen moved to quietly descend from the top of his back standing in front of him with some shock, as if she still did not know what was happening to him, she replied with some lack of understanding:
_South City! And what are we going to do there?!
_We have to meet the king.
But if Kilan sees us, he will no doubt hesitate to kill us.
We have to tell the king everything that happened; in order to put an end to what Kelan is doing, I know it's a risk in his first place, but it must be, he must know everything that is happening.
Princess Carmen moved away, saying, "Are you sure what you intend to do!
How can my father believe us when you know how much he loves my brother and always goes to his side?!
No other way, with us Jordan is the only witness to Prince Kelan, he must tell the king everything that is happening, surely the king will believe.
They are waiting for us outside, we will head to the river and from there we will sail to the city of the south.
It is our only way to reach the south, I hope that the prince does not pay attention to it so that our way to reach the king is not interrupted permanently.
I don't know what to do, my mind stops thinking as if it disrupted what happened to him, but what I know very well is that I trust you and your decisions whatever they may be, so do what you think is right.
Robert smiled and spoke:
Thank you Princess for this great trust.
