The carriage came into a stop in front of my courtyard and Leon helped me get down. "Sister!" I hear a young lads voice. Once I turned around I see a young lad that looks quite familiar. "Richard?" I was not sure at first because the young lad was taller than me by some inches. Richard is only fourteen years old but the young lad running towards me has a body of a young man. "Sister, I have missed you so much." Richard gave me a bear hug. "I-I missed you too." I said with a muffled voice.…

Tricia asked worriedly. "What do you mean?" I asked Tricia a little confused. "Well your face is a little red princess." Tricia said. "Maybe you have a slight fever." "No, I am perfectly fine. Haha." I smiled awkwardly. "It’s just a little stuffy in here, that’s all." "Is that so?" Tricia asked. She…

Before night fall the villagers that were disguised as bandits invited as to rest in their village for the night. "We don’t have much your highness but please feel free to eat as much as you want." An elder woman said. "Thank you very much." I replied. "I am not a picky eater so do not worry. Please join me." I smiled. The food on the table can feed the entire village.

"I would like to form a partnership, or rather a friendship with you." I smiled wittingly. "Hah?!" Jack looked confused and Brad surprised. "What?!" Leon was looking at me questioningly. "Don’t worry Leon. I know what I am doing, please trust me." I said. I hold his hand and squeezed it gently. He looked tense at first but became calm after. He nodded slightly. "I have heard about your ’Crimson Bandits’ from my grandfather." I said. "You are not just a small group of bandits like you just…

I wore my cape and hood and went out of the carriage. Leon heard me and looked around with a serious face. "Go back inside." Leon said with authority. If I were still the weak old Alicia, I would have listened obediently. But I know something that Leon does not know. "Please believe in me." I calmly said to Leon. He looked at me seriously then sighed. "I understand." Leon said but he didn’t let his guard down. I know that I will always be safe with Leon around. He might not know but I already…

It was early in the morning as we were preparing to depart. "Miss, I bought these buns from a bakery near by. They are newly baked and still hot." Tricia said presenting to me a bag full of buns. "Hmm, they smell delicious." I said why smelling the steam. "I know. You can snack on them in the carriage later." Tricia said. "Thank you Tricia." I smiled. "You are most welcome miss." Tricia replied. "Are you ready?" Leon asked. "Yes." I answered. Spending the night in the inn was…

The journey back to the capital and to the palace will take at least a week at most. The mansion we have stayed for these last two years was found at the edge of the country, by the boundary of Alvannia and Grandcrest. We are now at day four of our journey. And by the looks of it, we will arrive in the capital by tomorrow night. Because our party was small, containing only three people, one coachman and my cat, we used a small carriage in our journey. It was nearing evening when we arrive in a…

"Okay, thanks." I smiled at him. He offered his hand and I placed my hand in his. The time our hands touched everything around me went dark. And in a flash my surroundings lit up. I saw flames burning around me. I can feel the heat in my skin and I can smell the smoke in my nose. I look around, wanting to know where I was. Then I saw a familiar structure. I saw the gazebo at the back of my courtyard where I spend my time leisurely reading books. I was sure it was the gazebo in my courtyard because of…
