Lady Aryan lied to him and said she was denied entry at the gates because if she could have told him that she dined with his enemy, well that wouldn’t have turned out to be so good for her. “We don’t need a city when we have a kingdom. To hell with it” she told her brother. A week had passed and Gandalf was slightly persuaded that he had better and he should focus on what he had at that time – being…

Rumors started to escalate in the Hand’s palace that Princess Sansa was seen boarding a ship at the harbor with her male slave.

86 Chapter 8Artemis shrugged off his excitement in seeing a very peculiar knight as Lady Aryan. As a gentleman and a wise king, Artemis offered refreshments to Lady Aryan and his guards. “Shall we sit like civilized people?” Aurora suggested.

The windows of the hall were huge enough to brighten the place up and also sooth…

85 Chapter 8It so turned out Aryan was right and indeed Artemis was so shocked when he heard about Gandalf being crowned King of Prophis when Lord Balrus sent a raven for him on the way. He expected it but it’s the reception Gandalf got from Prophisians that completely stunned him.

They were inside a tent which was the biggest of all his escorts and guarded by five…

84 Chapter 8The way to Old City was through Horriss and it wouldn’t be so kind if King Artemis were to pass through Horriss without attending his cousin’s funeral or if the funeral had passed, then it was his duty to crown Hawk as the new Lord of Horriss. Hawk was a total different of his brother Deagol, some might even confuse his slowness of speech for weakness. However, there was no weakness in Hawk, he was wise and full of wisdom. Artemis himself recognized it when he crowned him Lord of Horriss…

While others titled him as “King of Stonedance” because they believed he was the one who won the battle and if it hadn’t been Gandalf’s betrayal then there would be a feast in his name but his head was mounted on the top of City’s gates, for everyone to see.
