~(-^-)~ yea new book

—-—-

Canesse is a land covered in large redwood trees that could reached the heavens, their land was so fertile that even in rocky plains plants can still grow but there is a dark story to Canesse. They did a purge years ago getting rid of the ones that were 'a problem', The Hervianas were the ones that had gotten a purge all because of a small curse. It was such a scare to the Hervianas that none of them would go against the king, a few Hervianas survived the purge but they all had faded away like myths.

"Wow..., Canesseians are so mean...why would they do that?, their humans just like them?" Elena says as she was in the sky with Alexzander they were riding on Fuel once again, Elena looks over to see Gabe behind Foloki they had taken Volance with them, so they had to make sure that if he does break loose. Conner and LIarm were on their own separate dragons flying on the sides of formation, LIarm flew a little closer to speak with Elena, "Canesse was cursed that if a Herviana did anything it would ripped though their ears, like a thousand knives piercing their ears."

"He's not wrong about that the Canesseians, that day when the king had banished them, he place a law that no Hervianas could do anything like sing, dancing, and even talking, the curse that was put on Canesseians made them hate the Herviana more, Mylene found this out from her father when her father and I heard what was going on," Alexzander felt Elena shift so he leans away so Elena could look at the two, "didn't Ethel know about it?"

"He did the thing was he believed it was an excuse to kill them, as their people were nomads they moved along the 17 seas, it's that Canesse is where they all originated from" Alexzander then looks back at Elena, "Mylene tried to reason with Ethel but because he was a man of his own thoughts, his mind didn't believe it saying Mylene was believing such lies all because her father was friends with 'Uncle', so it was a huge mess but we defeated him but now that he's back..."

"I'm just afraid he'll start another revolutionary war with the still living Herviana..."

After a few hours had passed the group finally made it to Canesse's main city, they landed not far from the city gates Alexzander hops down turning around to helpElena off the Fule, as Elena looks to the side she see small children not far from them playing in the distance. When was let down Elena watched one of the children kicked the ball to hard, as it rolled over to some marching guards heading towards Elena, the ball had popped under a guard's foot at the head of the guards was a tall dark skin built woman, she had dark hair braided towards the back her eyes were soft but sharped, the look in her eyes gave a vibe that their not wanted here, Elena was going to walk up and try break to the ice Alexzander smiles at woman, holding out his hand Alexzande was giving a welcoming gesture "Noémie it's a honor to see you again," Alexzander quickly held his head up when he felt Noémie's spear at his neck.

"Cut the formalities Alexzander what is it you want?, last time I heard King Samuel forbid you be in these lands again?," Noémie glares at Alexzander, he sighs seeing that their grudge against him hadn't change, "Cullen is here and he has Mylene..., and you don't want to cause a stir amongst the people about her being here?"

Noémie pull her spear down "Juliette maybe my friend, and she may trust you but I don't, and if you say is true then I will guide you through the city, but I will not have you spreading your lies about peace amongst here, we already had a problem with a cult that's been going around converting people," she leans in coming face to face with Alexzander "so you know I'm watching you every single one of you," Noémie then sees Volance she scoffs when seeing him "so much for the man that can bring fear by his war cries," Noémie walks away while Volance lunged at Noémie but because, he was in strains Conner and Gabe had stopped him.

They all head into the city it was well kept and clean, everyone waved at them as they walked by, Elena waved at those that walked out to see what was going on, as they head to the Castle they stopped when Noémie turns around, "you remembered the rules?, speak quietly don't argue in a loud voice an never touch anything inside, it's double the price you can afford" Noémie says as she leads them inside the Castle, walking on the marble clean floors and with yellow walls, they stopped at a large pearl color door Noémie takes a cloth out of her pocket, placing it through a gap in the doors lock so it couldn't click when opening it. When walking inside the throne room Elena could see that the floor was cover in pillows, Elena looks to see Alexzander had started taking off his shoes, after doing the same thing they being to step on the pillows, heading towards the middle of the throne room Elena could see a older tired male with a younger boy stands next to him, the younger boy's face lights up when seeing the group.

"Alexzander!, LIarm, Conner, and Foloki you all came back!, and Volance...figure as much an who are they?" The younger boy looked at Gabe and Elena, he walked over to them holding out his hand to give a warm greeting, "Timothée please your voice keep it down..." the older man starts to gets up from his throne, "sorry Samuel..." Timothée dropped his hand as he watched his brother come over.

"You should be..., Alexzander didn't I say you're forbidden to be here?, you Valisians can never take no for an answer do you?," King Samuel looks to Elena and Gabe "...bring more people to your cause I see?, you know what they did don't you?"

"Why are you?-"

"200 years ago their youngest prince came in 'peace' so they say, but when they saw that we as a community, was mistreating the mythical creatures instead of you know, doing it a way where we can understand and why they are so important to us, they end up not only destroying our trading route, but in prison those that wouldn't convert to their cause," King Samuel glares at Alexzander who sighs "that was over 200 years back Samuel, I'm not like that King you know that?"

"The fear of you doing such things will never leave us, you see the scars on the fields and what you're kind did to us?, we haven't even recovered for the economy from dropping" King Samuel rolls his eyes, "and now we have this problem about a Herviana not only being here of all things, but it's your Herviana..."

"Brother it's not that bad we've been finding ways to adapt, we been taking the soil and washing cleaning even-"

"Timothée the effort of doing so is putting labor on our people, it's soil it's suppose to be natural not something we have to fix all because one country, didn't like what we did Alexzander I'm giving you a month because I know, that you wouldn't allow us to go and get her seeing that I'll 'kill her' before actually letting you leave, if you didn't hear what I had said and didn't get out by then I'll will arrest everyone here in this dang place," King Samuel walks away leaving everyone in the room in silence, Elena frowns Alexzander reached for her not wanting the situation to escalate, "they tried to fix the pain that they had caused, Alexzander is taking time and effort to help at least you can try to understand."

"Our people had not only fought in a war against a country that had unheard of magical use, but the hate and pain of it grew over time do you know what it's like?, to live in fear that someday that if we did something out of line that they will come back?, when you came here did you not see the our forts along the mountain sides?, they caused it they were the ones that made this stale mate, we can be nice to hear them out but we won't hesitate to start the war again to protect ourselves," King Samuel was glaring down at Elena who didn't back down, "maybe if you tried to let go of this 200 years old feud you guys can actually be friends, have you two at least try talking about anything but politics?, you may have something in common?" Elena gestures to Alexzander, King Samuel rolls his eyes "being a King isn't something that should be fun, it's my job to protect my own people."

Elena watched as King Samuel head back to his throne as he sits down, Elena noticed that he was relaxed but he had bags under his eyes, seeing that something wasn't right about King Samuel span class="Apple-converted-space" /spanlooking like that, King Samuel waved his hand away as he wanted them gone Noémie nods, agreeing to the commands but before they left Noémie pulled them all to the side.

"Look I understand that I came off hard but you must know, we had tones of rumors going around that a Herviana revolution is coming," Noémie pulls out a piece of paper handing it over to Alexzander, on the paper had writing that had Herviana writing problem is he doesn't know what it says, even Mylene wouldn't know their part of language was lost, only a elder Herviana would know Noémie explain that she can give them free range, if they can find out where this is "my thoughts exactly, do you know how I can tell which ones are in the cause?"

"Actually yes I have a Herviana revolution symbol flag before it was altered it had, a water horse holding a Thistle in its mouth this new one, has a Kelpie with a adder rapped around it" Noémie pulls out the new revolution flag, "at least we can help stop it?" Elena smiles but was quickly shot down, "I do admire your ways of helping us but remember if you do such things, it my cause the people here to hate you" Noémie puts away the flag.

"Why is that?" Elena could tell it was a touchy subject, "people here they do it themselves they don't want people to help them, sort of 'I'm not disabled and I can do it myself' kind of bunch," Noémie crossed her arms but turns her head, when she heard someone call out for them.

It was Timothée he raced over to finally get the chance to talk with them, "if you don't mind I would like to come with you?" Timothée held up his bag in hand.

"Prince Timothée I know you want to help but you must be here with your brother, you know he doesn't like it when you leave without saying anything," Noémie walks over to push Timothée back towards the Castle, "I won't be in danger cause I know that you will be there!, like that time when you stopped that Bodach!, you were amazing it made want to learn everything about life here, as you know no one actually writes the truth down only tell things by stories."

"Know that you would go promise me this if you go, come straight home and tell Ollie all about what you find okay?, you know how he likes it when you sign language to him," Noémie smiles pushing a peace of hair out Timothée face, "I will and maybe if it's safe for him to move we can, all go in our own adventures" Timothée smiles, "why not bring him with us more the merrier?" Elena says with a smiles, "oh no he can't he's disabled his mind doesn't function like others, and he can really move pure say..."

"When my son was born he couldn't eat, learn, and take care of himself, so I've been the one taking care of him till Timothée came along, I didn't think I need his help how could I my son was my problem, I never realized how much stress I was in but Ollie really loves it when Timothée, reads him stories so Timothée end up more then just a visitor but family, so if anyone try's to hurt him like they would with my son let me now" Noémie said it in way that she wasn't joking.

Timothée dig in his bag pull out a piece of paper, "I have the command to be given with hold information, it was something my father did to make sure my brother and I wouldn't fight, so if my brother knows something but won't tell me the ambassador will be one to tell me, so if you want to know where Cullen is hiding at all," the boy smiles with confidence, "that and you know no one is will to give up anything at all?" Timothée puts the paper back in his bag.

"Please kid Cullen would kill anyone that would give out where he is" Volance was nudged by Gabe, telling him to be quiet but Timothée didn't mind it, "far as I can tell you I know where to start your search for Cullen, everyone one knows he doesn't give any clues."

"Wait you guys dealt with him?"

"Yeah he gets super excited when he meets new people, and mess with them doesn't he do that with you at all?"

"No after King Kritis's armor had been stolen, Cullen has been lot less forgiving now after that, it's like him messing around faded away?" Alexzander placed his hands on his hips, "that's odd?, Cullen would come and mess with everyone here is he planning something?"

"That for sure is on the dot, all we know is Alexzander is connected and he's bringing back King Kritis in some way, we have to make sure that Cullen can't do that, at the same time Mylene is in his grasp so we have no other choice, but to hand over Volance and the gem..." Foloki grunts as he disapprove this plan, "it's like his whole personality changed when he gotten the armor, he was like a happy man then something toke over him?"

"...I think that was the real Cullen?"

Everyone turn to Elena "think about it didn't the Divines say that Cullen use to be a happy person, before King Kritis died and was taken over by the darkness of the fallen Divine?, but when Alexzander came into his home he was different there right?, now he's taking high measures to get what he wants?" Elena felt that everyone was starting to become uneasy.

"I'll this to everyone if you need anything I'll be here in Canesse's main city," with said Noémie left there to start their little adventure to find Cullen.
