Siren's Song

Episode 27

Everyone in the palace was preparing for the greatest ceremony. The maids, servants, guards, soldiers, and the people of the whole country got plenty of food, herbs, tea, clothes, and everything as much as they wanted. Everyone waited for a long time to hear the wedding bell once again. As Princess Lily must take the wedding ceremony first at the central before she takes a trip to Patheon. Every king and queen must hold their wedding ceremony in front of the earth goddess. The earth goddess was the only god who taught them magic, gave them plenty, and taught them how to live among people with kindness, wisdom, and protection. So, none of them could ignore the creator godmother. Because of the godmother's heart of protection, they let them keep safe and stable. King Thermos and consort Eudora prepare to attend the wedding ceremony of princess Lily and prince Vlain in the coming days. The queen of Abyss tried to keep them away from her kingdom. The people of the Abyss and his own servants pretended to like him as their ruler at first. So, she tried to get their minds back to attack him. When she tried that way by sending the letter, she got some letters from the village head and other leaders. They all told her to give up on this because they were accepting him as their ruler and leader. She asked them why in the next letters. They said it's all because of his goodwill for giving them benefits and spreading the nation". She was shocked when she heard that plan from them. They told her everything about his plan to destroy the royal family of Evalon from the leader's position of leader. And then, he would take the top of all leaders after killing his brother's family. She held her mouth and said, "it can't be true and how can he change this much". Right after she knew, she tried to send the letter to the queen of Evalon. At the same time, Queen Aratia of Evalon took her trip to the motherland. The King of Moryan invited her to his place once before the beautiful niece's marriage. So, queen Aratia took princess Lily together on her trip to Moryan.

Princess Lily saw the strange views on her trip with her mother. Her mother Aratia pat her hair gently on the back and said, " What are you looking at via the window?". Princess Lily said, "it's many days for me since the last time I went to school". Her mother told her, "You want to see your school"? Princess Lily said, "No, I am fine. Just watch over there". Mother said, "you will be the crown princess after marrying the crown prince of Patheon from now on". She said, "I know mother and I will obey your promises and agreements with them". Mother said, "what do you mean by that". She said, "it's all against my will and hope for a future life". Mother said, "we are trying our best for you". She said in her mind, "you don't know what I want". The chariot was getting closer to her motherland. Mother was looking out the window, saying "Look, everyone is getting out to welcome us". She said, "it should be". But she didn't feel happy like her mother. She worried if her sister had found something in her library room or something else. She hid everything in their secret place inside the f*******n forest. Some of her experiments existed in the secret drawer in her library room. The trip made a mess of my mind. She wasn't getting done the potion for suicide herself at the marriage ceremony. This was her only way out. With all the thoughts covering her up from the present time, she couldn't hear the voice of her uncle's calling. Her mother moved her shoulder and then she said, "what is it, mother?". Her uncle said, "are you getting tired because of the long-way ride". She said, "pardon me, uncle, I have been getting sleepy for a while". Her uncle was laughing out loud when he heard this. He messed her hair up and said, " Don't worry, uncle has a plan to make you active". Then, an uncle took her hand and went into the palace. Her mother was laughing out after seeing him like this. Before she left, she heard her mother say, "he was still being childish like her". The maid Ommela said, "the princess was being much more likely to her uncle, so she was playing actively around the castle". Her mother said, "Yes, they look much alike to each other and too childish sometimes".

When her uncle stopped in front of the room somewhere else in the hallway, she looked around and asked him "what is this place". Her uncle said, "shh, please be quiet and don't peek". She closed her eyes and followed after him. Then, she heard a loud breath-out noise with a stinky smell inside the room. She said, "are you blowing out bad smell uncle". And then, her uncle said, "No, I am not and now just open your eyes slowly". He took his niece's hand and put it on something wet and soft. She tried to open her eyes slowly and then she saw the big nose and eyes in front of her. She said, "Yikes, what is it?". He said, "you will see when he comes out to light". Then, she dragged its chain up to the light area in the hallway, bypassing the door. When they reached the right spot, he said, "stop right there and turn". She slowly turned her face there and saw its real structure and face. She said, "it's the white dragon with bat wings". He said, "Yes, it's our royal family's ride and they only serve us". She said, "the dragon isn't coming from the volcanic land called Lava land". Her uncle said, "some of them lived among our lands and the land called Lapland". She said, "I met someone else from Lapland but she won't tell me much about their land". Her uncle said, " However, this is our precious present when the elder royal family member gives it to a grown-up member". Her uncle continued, "now it's your time to get this precious thing as your own". She said, "you are wrong. I ain't grown up yet". Her uncle teased her by playing with her hair, "Yes, you are a princess, because you will get married to the prince of Patheon and become the crown princess soon". She said, "why do you all keep telling me about those?". Her uncle said, "it's a necessary thing for you to remember". She couldn't let go of this huge creature called a dragon at the age of fourteen as a present from her uncle. She said to her uncle, "can I take a ride now". Her uncle said, " Not yet, I will teach you how to control the dragon". She asked him, " Mother is a dragon rider". He said, "Yes, she was a long time ago". She said, "why hasn't she placed her dragon at the palace of Evalon". Her uncle looked down at the floor and said, "it's all because of your father'. She said, " What about my father?". Her uncle stopped his word there and carried her to the guest room. She let go of her hand from the dragon's nose. The servants took the dragon back and put it back into that dark room. She felt sad for the white dragon which was in the darkroom.

When they reached the guest room, the mother was talking with the queen of Moryan about the jewelry and accessories which they needed to wear at a traditional ceremony. She was hearing strange things from now on. So, she asked her aunt about the tradition of Moryan. Her aunt told her well about their tradition before the virgin girl gets married. The women of Moryan gathered at the secret place to watch the blue moon. All of the women take their light blue scarves to cover their faces when the ceremony starts. They danced around the virgin girl and sang riddles to wake her up. The virgin girl wore a long light blue silk dress with a half-face-covered scarf. When the moonlight is up above the sky, it will shine up over the virgin girl with a blessing. At the same time, the mother of the virgin girl will remove her scarf and end the ceremony by singing a song with her daughter's name. She focused on her aunt's words and said, "so it must be upon my mother". The aunt said, "Yes, not only your mother but also every lady in Moryan will join you in the ceremony". She walked forward to the clothes stand and got some clothes. She asked them "are those the clothes for attending the ceremony". Mother came up to her and said, "Yes, of course, we must wear those to get the blessing of the blue moon". The maids around them were smiling with pleasure. She thought "I must be the only one who feels sad about getting married".
