Chapter 104: Going Home

Elvin stared at the princess crying and he didn't know what to do.

He had searched for her for a year now. The old witch in the council had had a vision on the princess's birthday a year ago and had told the council about the identity of the lost princess and how to locate her. As the last remaining knight he was tasked to find her.

Only the council knew about this secret task, so whoever had sent the brotherhood was surely in the council but who? Who wanted the princess dead?

Elvin sighed. They had to fight against the enemy and now their own people.

After the battle with the dragons it was rumored that the princess was dead, some had said the queen had sent her to a far away land to protect her and when the time comes she was going to be their salvation.

There were countless tales whispered ear to ear about the lost heir to the throne.

She was the people's hope and they never gave up waiting for her all these years.

But all of these were rumors and no one really knew where she was. Apart from the clue left by the queen.

The huge 25 letters that appeared everyday in the sky on the princess' birthday. Today marked the 25th year since the princess was lost and the 25 letters that always appeared finally made sense.

On the 25th year after the great battle, the lost princess was going to be found and returned to the City of Arkaans.

Elvin's respect and admiration for his queen increased at the moment. She was wise and always planned everything ahead.

Elvin knew a lot had happened tonight and he didn't want to scare the poor girl but the earlier he took her to Arkaans the better.

In twenty-four hours if Micheal and the rest haven't returned the brotherhood will come looking for her and them, he couldn't risk her safety.

He stiffened when he felt her hug him. Her tears soaking his clothes made his heart hurt.

He remembered the bubbly little princess when she was born. She was a joy for the whole city of Arkaans until the Great War which caused her to be lost.

Elvin awkwardly rubbed her back to soothe her.

"I-I want to go….home…." She uttered in between her sobs.

"Sorry dear, but I can't take you home. More people would be coming for you. We need to leave now."

He said gruffly, his expression intense and worried.

Meredith shook her head and pulled away from him.

"No-no I can't leave. My brother….my boyfriend…..friend they will all be worried! I can't just leave like that! "

Meredith cried, gasping for breath, the shock hitting her and constricting her lungs in panic.

"You must come with me earlier than expected. I apologize if you haven't yet said your goodbyes,"

Elvin said firmly, leaving no room for disagreements .

"But-"

"No buts princess, once you go home you will be putting your loved ones in danger. The brotherhood will do anything to get to you since they have accepted the order to kill you.

You're an ordinary woman on earth so they can hurt you but in Arkaans, you're the treasured princess and they wouldn't dare try to hurt you."

"P….princess??" Meredith whispered to herself. It felt weird to hear people refer to her like that. She knew this time would surely come but no one prepared her for anything.

"You are not just any princess, Meredith.." He said

more softly.

She looked up at Elvin from beneath her lashes and waited for him to continue.

"You are the long lost princess of the city of Arkaans."

He said quietly, assessing her.

"And I have been searching for you for a very long

time.

Meredith blinked up at him.

"I know you have lots of questions and I will answer all of it but we have to leave this forest the earlier the better

"What is the brotherhood?Why do they want to kill me?Are they werewolves?" The questions bubbled past her lips without my control.

Elvin sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose with his index and middle finger. He completely understood her questions and fears. Actually she was taking all of this better than he had expected.

"It's a long story. And one that I am not prepared to dive into until we've had some rest and reach the city of Arkaans."

"So you're taking me there like now?"

"Yes, don't worry once we reach Arkaans I will find a way for you to communicate with your loved ones.

The city of Arkaans is filled with magic and far advanced modern technology, you will surely hear from them again. Also it's not that different from earth so you will be fine.

Meredith bit her lips and contemplated for a while. Should she trust him? What if this is another plan to hurt her?

"Prove that I can trust you. What if you are another bad guy who wants to hurt me?" She asked wearily.

Elvin chuckled, "Sorry princess but I don't have anything that can prove I won't hurt you. You have to decide to trust me or not.

But as a knight I promise on my honor to not hurt you and take you safely to the city of Arkaans."

Meredith scrunched her face into a frown. From his blue eyes and familiar nose, she knew she was related to Atlas's mom.

If her mom trusted his sister then she could trust the brother right? But what confused her was that he didn't know that his sister took her to earth? All of these were confusing and she needed answers.

The only place she will get these answers was in Arkaans.

"Alright, I trust you."

Elvin stiffened and stared at the determination in her eyes. She was really her father's daughter after all.

"Good."

Elvin took a dagger and drew a big triangle and a smaller inverted triangle inside after that he placed crystals at the end points.

A pinpoint of light erupted from the triangle and gradually transformed into a vortex.

"Ready to return home, princess?"
