Chapter 12 - Eyes of dawn

Lucien's eyes got widened and he immediately shook his head and said "impossible".

He looked at the other five and said "how can Lancelot be injured?"

All five of the sanguine wardens were equally shocked and lasken chuckled nervously and said "Is this some kind of a mockery that you are attempting towards the voice of a king?"

The minister who brought the news straightened up immediately and said "of course not wardens, My king i would never attempt this kind of mockery towards the voice".

All of them looked at each other and Sam nodded and said "bring him in this room with utmost respect and make sure not to harm him further".

Just when the minister was about to leave, Renly called minister and said "wait, let me go tend lancelot. You go towards the "nesper room" and summon the "eyes of dawn" here immediately".

All of them were shocked hearing Renly's words but Sam seemed to agree with him.

Lucien looked at Renly and said "why summon him?"

Renly bowed and said "forgive me for overstepping my boundaries, my king but i have a bad feeling about this".

Renly narrowed his eyes slightly and said "It's been ten years since i have served this kingdom and never have i ever seen or heard Lancelot getting even a bit of a scratch let alone a full fledged injury".

Lucien nodded and said "yeah it does seem a little strange to me as well".

Lucien got into deep thinking and said "Alright let's summon him but be a little cautious as i don't trust him".

"Yes, My king", said Renly with affirmative tone.

Lumara kingdom.

South of sumaka.

A figure with burned marks and tattos all over his body was walking in a defeated way. It was bhagdatta who had yet to recover from the celestial weapon of rain that Lancelot invoked. He was riding for several days for lumara kingdom as it is known for the city of hope and advancements.

Lumara kingdom is basically a city of apothecaries and herbalists who knew various herbs and magic to cure several diseases even the unknown ones. This city had no king or a ruler who to command them, it was a independent city which runs on it's own and no other kingdom attacks them as they are peaceful and helpful even to their enemies such as warriors from west,east and north.

It was first of many independent cities that lancelot and Renly approved and helped the apothecaries and herbalist from the several enemies that dared to attack them just for the sake of chaos. Lancelot and Renly bravely fought "skarvet tribe" which was a fishmen tribe who generally lives in "Aurelia River" which was a river near the reylight kingdom.

It had various wooden trees on its entrance and some of the trees had various beautiful flowers and green herbs. The gate had some bluish red vines draped all over it and a small sparrow on top of the white coloured gate. The gate didn't have any gatekeeper as the kingdom would never get attacked thanks to lancelot and Renly.

Behind the white coloured gate there was several small red houses in which herbalists and apothecaries lived with their family.

In the middle there was a bronze coloured stone statue that was in honour of Lancelot. Even though Lancelot had denied it but they still insisted and made a statue of him anyway.

Bhagdatta had already mounted his horse and started approaching for the white coloured gate.

He walked and his every breath was taken as if he gonna die right away but that was not possible because of his boon.

He leaned forwards towards the white coloured gate and shouted "Is someone there?"

"I need help" bhagdatta shouted as he was going to collapse.

A man came from near a small red coloured house and said "good gods what happened to you".

He immediately pulled on an invisible snake and the vines which was draped all over the white coloured gate instantly vanished as the gate opened with a loud shrieking noise.

"Come on in, i will treat you" said the man with brown hairs and purple cloak with soft features on its face.

The purple cloak had a little sparrow on it with some green herbs all around the sparrow.

The man called several other herbalists and said "carry him to my house".

Lunaverth kingdom.

An area around the lake.

Rayon approached several knights and said to them "I am lucky to have such loyal knights serving me".

"Well it's a shame that we have fallen from grace but remember we were once considered as the strongest of kingdoms in all of sumaka", rayon shouted.

Minister shawine was right besides him as he gave a faint smile and looked at all of the knights present there.

There were about thousands of knights present there with a golden flag in their hands.

All of the knights had long metal swords drawn out as a sign of respect and honour.

The knights were dressed in golden yellow armour from top to bottom.

Some were on horses and others on their foot as they listened to their king rayon.

The golden flag had white coloured dove on it and a thick gray long sword on top of it. This was the emblem of Sairose empire.

As rayon rambled on for a few more minutes about honour and bravery, he closed his speech with the topic of most important ceremony of two kingdoms.

Rayon sairose looked at his knights and said "Your princess freya is going to marry the great king "lucien" in a few days".

He added "This is the most important grand ceremony that will give this two great kingdoms a strong alliance which is mostly needed for us at this state".

Rayon said while slightly lifting his fist in the air "we will rise once again and no one shall die in this great kingdom of thirst and hunger ever again".

The knights with their swords drawn suddenly lifted it up in the air and many murmurs were coming from the huge crowd of knights. Most of the people saying "for our king" and "the king is kind".

Rayon smiled slightly and looked at minister shawine as he also returned the same feeling.

Shawine said in a whisper "We finally did it! We are so close".

Rayon smiled and nodded "yes shawine, we are".

West of sumaka.

Nero aplhs.

Soran arjen was standing in the same place with sand and several ruins and broken tombs in sight.

As soran walked towards another broken ancient tomb he noticed something was written there like other tombs in same rishmit language.

He read it and started pondering over it for a few seconds before lifting his sword "crownbreaker" in the air saying "Help".

The old man summoned out of thin air as he walked over to soran with his thick wooden stick.

The old man said in a low voice "Stuck on a verse again?"

"Well these are quite confusing and difficult to interpret", soran said while looking at the verse written in rishmit language.

The verse written there was quite strange.

"A princess sitting around a lake will be the downfall of a voice and his friend and a burned man is scheming something evil. The gods are not going to forget whatever happens from now till the end, a strong reckoning will come in a form of human".
