Chapter 2: Chapter 2 :- An Awakening
They said do not believe what you do not see and do not trust what you do not hear, so I believe what I see, but I was wrong all along because some people are not what they appear to be.
Appearances never define who you are, only your true self can reveal who you truly are. You are probably wondering why I am saying this.
Because I learned it from someone close to me, she taught me how to stand and fall at the same time.
Arabelle De Callivaniya stated, "I came here to hold a meeting today, but before that, I want to tell you all something else—it is a story."
Sir Arabelle De Callivaniya smoothes her platinum blonde hair behind her ear.
" Let me tell you a story about a woman we once overlooked," she said.
"We are all aware that light can ward off the darkness and that the darkness can eat light."
Arabelle De Callivaniya continues her story.
A few years earlier,
At the rose palace garden, a tall, attractive man with black hair that glistened like the night sky appeared.
" So mother chose this place for her Thev?" he said
" Indeed, sire," Thev replied.
His crimson eyes landed on Thev, and a tiny smile spread across his lips.
" hah! I have never been disappointed by my mother, " Prince Philip said.
Thev understand that his master mocked his mother for choosing this place.
Why did she choose this location for her daughter, a ruined garden devoid of flowers, an unfurnished and remote location?
This place was abandoned a long time ago, and it was used for royal prisoners for centuries, so why did her biological mother choose this palace for her?
They reached their destination after a brief period of silence.
Viscount heir Thev Elender yelled, "Open the door, His Highness Prince of William is here!"
After the palace maid opened the door she politely bowed toward the Prince Philip.
There were medicinal odors throughout the room, and a maid approached to offer the Prince of William and Thev Elender a mask.
"How is she doing, is she going to be okay?" Prince Philip said.
"My Highness! Unless she awakens, we cannot be certain." Callias, the imperial physician, wipes the cold perspiration from his brow.
"What is the duration of her current state of being?" he asked the imperial physician Callias.
Callias, the imperial physician, gasped in terror and answered, "It will be three days that the Princess is unconscious," in a trembling voice.
The young Prince Philip De Elemant Salaiyra glared furiously at the Imperial physician Callias, he was about to grab his sword but Thev intervened.
"His Highness the Empress has issued strict instructions regarding today's banquet and the Princess's care, did you forget?"
"Then, when did you start serving Mother?" he said Philip's fierce chrisom gaze fell upon Thev.
"No, sir, I am your attendant. We also have a banquet to prepare for. Did you forget the last time? The crown prince will not forgive us if we make any mistakes today." Thev said.
Prince Philip turned toward imperial physician Callias and said "Today you are lucky, but my patience has a limit. I will give you one more day to wake her up and cure, but if you disappoint me like today, say goodbye to your loved ones."
"Thev informs all of the maids and knights in Rose Palace that I will also be visiting tomorrow as well." young Prince Philip said coldly.
I know why mother, why you directly bestow an order to forbid me and your cherished son from seeing her.
You have not finished yet, have you? I am having such a nice life with a mother like you and brothers like them, I am sick and tired of this.
A whispering voice!
A large crowd of people congregate in the banquet hall and begin chatting in whispers regarding the Royal Family rumors.
"It appears that the missing princess has been located."
"I heard the same thing as well."
A tall young man is listening to the ladies who are gossiping while standing directly behind them.
Is it a coincidence that they have located their missing princess? Additionally, why is the temple prophesying again, this time for the second time?
"Are you also aware of the information regarding the missing Princess Duke of William?" Says the Marquis of Ashland.
The Marquis of Ashland is a middle-aged man whose blonde hair is starting to fade and whose expression is always serious.
Politely, Asghar De Callivaniya gives the Marquis of Ashland a nod. "No, sir. That fact was unknown to me as well."
Asghar De Callivaniya once studied under the Marquis of Ashland, a former knight trainer who is renowned for his severe words and deeds.
I know the Marquis of Ashland is an honest man, but how can he be so haughty after those events? He did not even bother to smile or make a soft face in front of so many nobles. It seemed as though he did not even care what the royals thought.
The royal bell rings out.
Silence descended upon the banquet hall.
A dapper man with golden blonde hair enters the banquet hall, evoking the image of the god Hiatlerus. His commanding presence and demeanor could cause one to shudder.
Aside from him, there is another person besides him, she is a woman whose face is covered under a black veil, a veil on her face that can't hide her beauty, even under a veil she seems like a fairy from Fairyland.
Respectfully, Your Majesties! Let everyone praise his and her Majesties' greatness. Allow the splendor of Sothoarbil and Hiatlerus to descend upon us.
The Duke of Williamsburg begins to yell and respectfully bow to the Emperor and the Empress.
Every nobleman begins by adhering to the Duke of Williamsburg.
The royal pair is seated on the throne.
"Your Majesties, congratulations on finding the lost princess," the Duke of Williamsburg uttered.
"May I have the attention of all nobles? I, Duke of Williamsburg, am happy to announce that our empire has been bestowed with great blessings by our God Hiatlerus, Goddess Sothoarbil."
"God and Goddess truly bestowed blessings upon our Emperor and Empress. The tears of our Emperor and Empress were too much for the Goddess to bear."
"Thus, our lost twelve princesses were returned to us by the grace of almighty Goddess Sothoarbil.
Who was once taken away from our gracious Empress? The greatness of the Goddess truly bestows blessings upon the Emperor and the Empress."
The Duke of Williamsburg then turned around and took two glasses of wine, which he then passed to the royal couple.
"Your Majesties, let us raise a glass to our missing Princess."
Everyone raises their wine glass and shouts all hail to your Majesties.
Banquet hall screams are loud enough to be audible from a distance.
Rossaria stood on her secluded balcony, gazing down upon the grandeur of the imperial banquet with her cold, green glowing eyes. From her vantage point, she observed the opulence and merriment that filled the palace grounds, yet her heart remained untouched by the festivities. As if A beast with green eyes has awoken from those noises.
A mysterious young man appeared behind Rossaria and he said " My Highness,"
Dark, the enigmatic figure who stands as Rossaria's hidden knight guard, possesses an aura of mystery and strength. He shares the same age as the Rossaria.
They make their formidable allies in their shared journey. Dark in an imposing, full black mask and a sleek black knight uniform, Dark's true identity remains concealed, adding an air of intrigue to his act.
With a powerful and robust physique, Dark exudes an intimidating presence of fear, and awe in those who cross his path. The full black mask obscures his face, allowing only his piercing blue eyes to be visible, captivating anyone who dares to meet his gaze.
" Dark Isn't it ironic to enjoy a party without the host, " she said.
" ..... "
" Dark tell Oslena to come here, and as for you, search every stone of this palace and check every single detail about this palace and my beloved family, do this inside the palace in disguise remember don't reveal yourself," Rossaria said.
" Yes, I understand. " Dark replied
