Rise of a Queen

e has talking about his kingdom and king but this time around, he snapped, ”General Cyan, truly we need your help but that still gives you no right to talk about my kingdom and king in such manner. Just because you happen to be a General does not change the fact that you are a mere woman and you definitely should not be talking to and about a man like that. ” He finally said, panting.

General Cyans face hardened, her brows furrowed and her lips were pursed. She was silent for few minutes before she sighed and said, ”Hmmm, are you done? ”

General Livius was surprised expecting her to scream and shout at him. General Cyan knew what was going in his mind and she said, ”Oh, you think Ill behave irrationally like you did? If I were you and I need my help, I will be as humble as need be. ”

She looked at him impassively, ”Now leave. ”

He was furthermore surprised at her responses. He was staring at her when she said, ” Must I repeat myself? ”

”Huh… ” He seems confused as to what she wanted to repeat.

She pointed her index finger to the door and he finally remembered what she was talking about and he clears his throat, ”Hmm hmm, well Ill be expecting your response again. Thank you General Cyan. ” He reached his hand out for an handshake but all he got was a nonchalant look from her.

He immediately took back his hand and he left, embarrassed.

General Cyan scoffed, ”Response huh? ”

At Yoniez

General Livius was led to the room the injured guard was laid after the event that took place was explained to him.

He was examining the guard when King Richard came in and sat at the edge of the bed.

General Livius, upon seeing the King in the room, he bowed, ”Your highness ”. King Richard nodded his head at him. ”How did the arrow come in? ” General Livius asked out loud. ”And whose arrow is it? ” He asked again.

”Nobody know how it came in. But who it belongs to, Im sure that when you see it, youll know who it belongs to. ” King Richard said, looking at him angrily.

General Livius was confused as to why the King was looking at him like that.

King Richard turned to the guard behind him, ” You, call me the guard that is with the arrow. ” He said. The guard bowed and left to call the guard.

King Richard and General Livius were looking at the guard that was lying on the bed with different things going through their minds.

Soon, the guard that was sent and the guard that was sent for entered the room.

They both bowed to the King and General Livius but the king did not answer them instead he said, ”Bring the arrow out. ”

The guard immediately brought it out of the small bag that was slung across his shoulder and handed it towards King Richard.

King Richard collected it from him and looked at the arrow again, becoming more angry. He looked at General Livius angrily and then handed the arrow to him, ”Look at what is inscribed on the arrow and tell me whose own it is. ”

General Livius took the arrow from his hand and checked what was inscribed on it. On seeing it, his eyes widened in shock.
