Finding a Solution
313 Words
The queen could be seen pacing In front of the king. They were waiting for the elders in council to come and offer their wise suggestions to solve the mystery behind the prince's dreams.
"What is keeping them? Why are they so slow today?"
"My queen calm down a bit. You are the one restless that's why you feel they are taking long."
"Really? Isn't it almost an hour since we sent for them?"
The king laughed and shook his head.
"My wife, keep calm. It's not even up to twenty minutes yet."
"Oh! ok."
The queen went and sat on her throne beside her husband. Not long after she sat, the elders started trooping into the palace.
"Your majesty!"
They all chorused and bowed
"What are we hearing about our prince?"
One of the elders asked.
"What you heard is the truth so now what do we do to help him? He is very troubled and refuses to sleep."
Everyone started whispering amongst themselves
"I think we should involve some seers in this."
"I support what Akari said."
They all agreed to invite a seer
Thirty minutes time
"Your majesty! You summoned me."
"Indeed I called for you. My son is having trouble sleeping due to the weird dreams he gets recently. We need your divine intervention."
"Of course I shall intervene but I see you have already spoken to him about it. What you discussed with him some days back, is the solution. If he fails to do that, what he dreams of, shall be his fate."
The king understood immediately but he was still a bit confused
"What about the lady in his dream?"
"That shall be the fate of his beloved since their destiny is intertwined. His decisions shall affect her as well. He should think twice before making any decisions."
That being said, the seer left the palace.
