In a modest residence, after attaining composure and reflecting upon the information he had shared with me earlier in the woods, I inquired, "If you possess genuine knowledge regarding my mother's fate, would you kindly disclose it to me?" The knight responded, "Certainly, I am at your disposal for any inquiries you may have."
„I might believe you if what you say is the truth or else I will leave at once”, clarified Luna.
“Alright, princess Luna. I will start explaining now”, declared the knight.
Luna gave a slight nod as response while she sat there in silent preparing herself for the explanation.
“Your mother is a queen which wished to live an average life with her husband, the king, but your father had to much work and responsibilities on his shoulders, so he couldn’t approve of your mother’s wishes. Soon after you were born and the king approve the queen’s wish to live as an average person, but under one condition that some of the guards would still watch over the both of you to ensure your safeties. About 6 months later new trainees were recruited and assigned to watch over you and your mother, that’s when the incident happened. As they watched the both of you for some time, they took you for real slaves and decided to pull a stunt by taking your mother away in front of you. Once we heard of this we started searching everywhere for your mother, but before we were able to find them and rescue the queen, they had already taken her life. This incident really made the king very upset and devastated for months which turned into years. The new recruits which participated in the stunt were punished, and stripped of off their titles as guards. Once the king was doing well again, he had made up his mind of continuing his wife’s wish and sent you into a village at the age of six, with me guarding over you”
