She had just given up her fuss, her hair still damp. Dantriel wrapped her arms around her and spoke softly. "You should dry your hair before going to sleep; otherwise, you might catch a chill." "Why didn't you tell me this girl was the same as Sofia?" Enora replied, her brow furrowing. "I don't think it's necessary," Dantriel said dismissively. "Did you know that Sophia's soul could enter this body?" Enora pressed."Yes, it was Princess Sophia asking me to keep it a secret, so please don't mention it." "For a moment, I thought it was Sophia herself," Enora admitted, her voice trembling. "In reality, her red hair is inherited," Dantriel explained. "I ran away from her priest, but..." "Why?" Enora asked, her curiosity piqued. "You hate your priest. Ever since he treated you poorly, you've despised him." "I suppose you have a point," Enora conceded."And what now?" "I want to fulfill Sophia's great wish, but it has nothing to do with her escaping." "Have you wanted to decide without knowing what to retain?" "Your husband and daughter are part of their lineage's guardians." "I thought there were no more left!" Enora exclaimed. "Apparently, that isn't the case. They became untouchable. Though I dislike it, the guardians are equal to all clans; that's how it is." "I never understood that. Why do all the clans have to obey their guardians?" "Because they are the only ones who can close the doors of Hades if they are open.They are the only ones who could save us." "It has been sharp since the last time they opened," Dantriel said, her voice heavy with concern. "I would like it to stay that way, but I don't believe our peace will last much longer. The doors of Hades will be opened again." "I believed he could defeat King Venobich; everyone thought it was over." "It seems someone is trying to open those doors again. And I mean Sophia. This time, it's inevitable-war approaches. The clans must unite and fight against it." "They didn't participate in the last war.Do you really think they want to help?" "That's why she didn't know he was a guardian. If he works, he is obligated." "It's complete nonsense. Are you sure this clan will help?" Enora asked, her skepticism evident. "Sophia assures you, but I also think she might be lying." "Do you believe she lied?" "I don't believe it. The power your daughter possesses is greater than that of a normal mestizo, and it must be because she is a guardian." "She's still very young; how can she handle it?" "If she wanted to, she could.But with so much power, she might end up..." "Then she might die." "I don't think she will live beyond this year. The only reason she is still alive is because we have been using magic to control her power." "Will you tell Abril?" Enora asked, worry etched on her face. "I believe she suspects something, just like you. She can see everything inside her." "Is there no help for anyone?" "Yes, but here, nothing would grow quickly, and her body might not be able to contain all that power." "Is that not possible?" "In reality, it is.If they go to the land of the fairies, where the magic flows differently, her body could grow rapidly in a short time. But this girl is very attached to her daughter; I don't think she would accept it." "It's more probable that she would have to leave her daughter in the kingdom. If she starts a war, she would disappear from the kingdom." "But if you want to save her, you will have to accept it." Enora hugged Dantriel tightly. "But let's talk about it; help me." "Perhaps it's best if Ethan should be here.He would be very happy for Abril." Dantriel took a breath and said, "Well, you think you're in the right place for what you came for." "I wanted to check that you were fine; that's why I came." "As you can see, I'm perfectly fine, so you can go." "It bothers you that you don't want me here," Dantriel replied, stepping closer. "I wanted to have a pleasant time, but if I couldn't, perhaps I should call someone else to warm my bed." Dantriel closed the distance between them, wrapping his arms around Enora's waist. "You don't have to call anyone; I'm here." "I thought you were in prison for it.Weren't you going to see your friend?" "Ethan could be in the morning, but apparently, I won't be leaving, so I'll stay with you." Ethan stood by the door, waiting for Dantriel to tell him what was happening inside. The guards informed him, "It's already afternoon; you should go." "I won't leave here until I know what's happening inside," Ethan insisted. "Do whatever you want, but you know it's useless," one guard replied. Ethan sank to the ground against the palace wall. Despite being told it was best to leave, he couldn't bring himself to do so; he felt partly responsible for the situation."Good night, Your Majesty," he murmured as he got up upon hearing footsteps. He turned to see Princess Kiara approaching. "What happened?" "Follow me, and you'll find out," she said, leading him down a few streets. They turned a corner, and Kiara paused near the guards. She extended her hand and spoke. "Go back to what I told you." "First, tell me what's been locked up in the Malva Tower." "Your cousin and his family are being treated as guests, so you don't have to worry about them." "Did the queen agree to let them go?" "Yes, I told you what you wanted to know.Now deliver my compass." Ethan retrieved the small compass from his bag and handed it to her. "Here it is. Thanks for trusting me." Kiara examined the compass carefully, ensuring it was original and not a copy. Satisfied, she tucked it away. "You're welcome," she said, continuing down the street. "You can go; there's no need for me to accompany you," she added. "I don't have a guard. It's best if I take care of myself, and I want to be alone," Ethan replied. Kiara nodded and walked away, but Ethan called after her, "Be careful, Princess." "I always am," she replied with a smile.
