Leaving Seren to rest, Drayce went to his study to talk to Lady Tyra. He was troubled with why Seren was seeing that stranger woman in her dreams or vision and why she had to suffer that pain.
“Your Majesty,” Lady Tyra bowed to him who was waiting for him in his study.
Drayce sat in his chair and singled Lady Tyra to sit.
“Tyra, we need to find that woman,” Drayce spoke.
“I agree, Your Majesty. If Her Majesty is going through this, then there is a meaning to it and we need to find it out.”
Drayce nodded, “I can not leave her alone and after her abduction, it’s even mandatory for me to not leave her side.”
Something came to Lady Tyra’s mind, “Your Majesty, why do you think someone from far away suddenly is searching for a Purple eyed woman who is none other than Her Majesty.”
“I thought about it and I think just like how Seren sees that green-eyed woman, someone is there who must be seeing Seren as well. It’s highly possible that we can find that woman in Agartha. I don’t believe it’s simply for no reason they are suddenly showing them to us.”
Lady Tyra agreed, “Aureus has already gone there. I am sure he will come with some useful information. I wonder if he reached there. I heard Her Eminence say that it’s not easy to cross those mountain ranges even for the supernatural to reach Agartha.”
“Aureus is powerful. He will find a way. I have specifically asked him to look for any possible suspicious green-eyed woman.”
“About going to Abetha to attend the second Princesses wedding, what do you plan, Your Majesty?”
“King Armen had arranged this wedding when he knew that it’s Seren’s birthday when we would be there. He was cautious about when she would be of age. I wonder if he had intentionally planned it like this so Seren would be in Abetha during her birthday.”
“That can be possible. He must have reason to do so or the father who was protecting his daughter with everything he could, he would not risk her letting her go back there,” Lady Tyra added.
“We have to prepare to leave in a few days.”
“I hope by then Aureus can be back. Given the situation, it would be better to have someone with powers by Her Majesty’s side other than You, Your Majesty.”
“I don’t think he will be back by then but….” something came to Drayce’s mind, “There is someone that I can keep with us. He is knowledgeable and powerful as well. His knowledge will help dealing with these things.”
“The elf who helped Aureus and Her Majesty?” Lady Tyra asked.
“Hmm. Though I still don’t trust him completely, I have to get help from him.”
Lady Tyra cleared her throat awkwardly, “There is one more person but….”
“He doesn’t know anything about it. We should let it be the way it is. When the time comes, he will know it on his own. We should not disturb his quiet life. There must be a reason why the master had hidden him for so long.”
Lady Tyra could not help but agree.
Drayce stood up, “Take care of Seren. I will go look for that elf Yorian.”
Lady Tyra nodded and Drayce disappeared from her sight in thin air.
Drayce appeared at the mountain where Aureus had already told him before leaving, where he could find the elf Yorian.
As said by Aureus, Draven was faced with boulders and looked like it was the end of the way on the mountain.
“Spell of deceit which can hide any figure and scent. He sure seems so capable,” Drayce mumbled.
“There was nothing to doubt about but you overthink.”
Drayce heard the voice and soon the view of boulders disappeared, only to replace with the view of the cottage with a boundary wall tall up to his knees, two huge size tigers sitting on the stacks of hay, the burned wood blocks that created smoke as one metal pot hung over it and a familiar elf sitting in front of them on a wooden chair around a circular table and was sipping the freshly brewed tea.
“In cold weather, drinking freshly brewed tea seems to be the best idea,” the elf commented as he smiled at Drayce.
Drayce walked towards him and heard the elf again who smirked slyly, “I was expecting you to visit sooner or later but you are earlier than I thought. I wonder what is the reason that left you with no option but me”
Drayce stopped a few steps away and said, “I need your help to protect my wife.”
the elf raised his brow, “And why do you think I would do that?”
“To get you to know about what made you curious about my wife.”
Yorian chuckled, “I was asking for the same thing but you bluntly refused me again and again,” he then gave him a questioning look, “Seems like something had happened that you decided to give in to me.”
Drayce simply looked at him while the elf said, “Unless you tell me anything, how can I be of any help? What I can assure is that I don’t mean harm to your wife. Now it’s up to you to decide whether to trust me or not.”
Drayce somehow trusted him. If that elf wanted to harm Seren or had any wicked intentions due to the powers hiding inside her, he would not have allowed Seren and Aureus to leave. Given the condition the both were in, this elf would have easily dealt with them.
“Fine,” Drayce agreed.
“Then you can have a seat,” said the elf as out of nowhere one more chair appeared there in front of the circular table.
Drayce sat on the chair as the elf served him tea in a cup. Drayce explained to him what was happening with Seren and what the elf had sensed about his wife was right.
“She would be turning eighteen soon and I am worried that those her father was trying to hide his daughter from, would find her soon.”
“Hmm!” was what the elf said and continued to drink. Though I didn’t scy into your wife’s powers without her consent, I feel like what is hiding inside her is totally opposite to her body’s elemental constitution. I felt that strong power when I came across her that day.”
“Scrying? I didn’t know high elves or moon elves have that ability.”
“My mother was a Priestess of the moon elf clan so I have inherited some of her abilities. Priestesses are rare and have various abilities than the rest of the clan,” the elf explained as he continued about Seren, “If that power is free from the seal, it can harm her body severely due to different elemental constitution. I must say the one who hid that power inside her is nothing but cruel to an innocent girl.”
Drayce’s calm expressions changed to worried ones, “How can we deal with it then. If I am not wrong, her coming of age is related to lifting that seal and leaving that power free.”
“Either we have to take that power out of her body or she must learn to use it by letting her body accept it as her own. Which won’t be easy at all, most precisely almost impossible. There are supernaturals who have mastered another element other than the one in their constitution. But it’s really rare. I hope your wife is from that rare population.”
“She has no idea how to use any of the powers. More like she is powerless and her powers only show up according to her emotions.”
“Hmm, that beautiful view of flowers blooming everywhere she steps in. What a blessing for a person to have such powers,” the elf commented.
“You talked about her elemental constitution. If I am not wrong it is earth,” Drayce asked.
“Hmm, just like yours is darkness, she is earth,” the elf said and then chuckled, “Darkness and Earth? What kind of pairing is it?.”
“Whatever it is, it’s the best one,” Drayce said confidently.
“Darkness goes with everything as the end of everything is always darkness,” the elf commented. “And it’s the most powerful of all kinds of powers that exist in this world. Other than you, only one person has the same constitution as you.”
“King of Agartha, Draven Aramis?” Drayce concluded.
The elf nodded, “Hmm, I told you he and you are similar in certain ways.”
“There can be more than just us two,” Draven commented as he gazed at the elf as if to test him.
Elf smirked as he poured more tea into his cup, “Are you talking about that friend of yours? The first prince of Griven?”
Drayce simply looked at the elf Yorian. Drayce knew his constitution was of Darkness and this elf didn’t miss it. It was easy to guess elemental constitution if they are of the earth, fire, water, or air but Darkness? This was something that could not be guessed so easily. This elf sure was not ordinary.
