The Test for Two

Chapter 1: The Apprentices

It had been three years since Vor's takeover attempt on Enchancia but it had seemed the so called attack had nearly been forgotten to the few that were involved in the battle. Now the kingdom was growing and prospering thanks to it's inhabitants. Many great things had taken place in the land all because of Sofia and her family but now her family and friends were looking to the future.

"You wanted to see us, Sire." Cedric asked as he and his sister followed Baileywick inside the king's office to find both the king and queen there and awaiting their arrival.

"Yes, I wanted to talk about how Calista's training is going as future Royal Sorceress." Before Vor's attack the royal family and Cedric's family had decided that Calista was to be Cedric's successor in the future when it came time to hand the crown down to Princess Amber who was the heir to the Enchancian throne.

As for the children themselves the three royal children had grown gracefully into the teenage years and Calista had turned nine a few months ago.

The grown-ups were becoming proud of what the children had learned and loved seeing them grow. One day they were going to be given the responsibility to protect the kingdom but of course that was still a long way off.

"Very well, You're Majesty, Calista has learned a great deal of spells and potion making from me but Cordelia is teaching her about healing methods. " Cedric answered as he sat down on the couch next to his sister.

"Has she had trouble in anything?" Miranda asked.

"Well, she is having trouble in her healing lessons but other than that you could say she has inherited the prodigy side from her uncle...just like I predicted she would." The woman said with a smirk and making her brother blush.

"Flattery won't get you anywhere, Cordy. Moving out of this castle was the best thing to do. You have a castle of your own after all."

Before Cedric had started his niece's training he had talked his sister into letting the little girl live here permanently saying that it was the next best step for her and that she needed to bond with Amber. He was worried that there would be rifts between the two girls if they didn't start bonding. The sorcerer didn't want the past to repeat itself so Cordelia relented for the child to live with her uncle but over time she missed her daughter and soon enough she came to visit quite often.

"Since you say that Calista is doing well in her lessons...what do you say if I were to give her and Amber a test?" Roland asked.

"A test?" Cordelia asked with her voice full of worry.

"Yes, Amber has been doing very well in school as well as her lessons with me so I've been thinking it's time to see if they can work together."

"What do you have in mind?" Cedric asked.

"This weekend there will be a Heir convention where all the future royal heirs get together and get to know one another."

"How would that include Calista?" Cordelia asked.

"She can go with Amber as protection. They may not ever get into danger but we'll have to see if they really work together." Roland explained.

Cedric sat in silence for a moment as he thought about this but after a minute a smile came to his face as one of his gloved hands fell back to his lap.

"I agree, it's about time Calista is presented with a test."

"WHAT!" Cordelia asked his panic. "Cedy, she-she's just a little girl!"

Cedric frowned at his sister's objection and clasped his hand with her's. "Cordy, I can tell she is ready to be given a test, she has shown great talent in using her powers besides by the time she reaches her teenage years I will have to hand down my job to her. In a way, I can't see myself retiring from this job because I love what I do..."

"Cedy..." Cordelia was stunned to see how her brother was acting.

"I feel like my job had just started again once I gained the respect from everyone and even though my retirement is still a long time from now I feel like that my legacy would have ended too soon."

The room was silent as everyone else watched Cedric walk to the window to look down on the playing children outside. If only they had started recognizing Cedric's talents when he had first took on his job. If only they hadn't blamed him on Cordelia's incident all those years ago.

Without realizing it,Roland stood up from his seat at his desk and placed a hand Cedric's shoulder making him look up at his long time friend.

"While your term as royal sorcerer may feel shorter than your ancestor's they haven't done what you do. One day you'll be known as greatest royal sorcerer Enchancia has ever had because you taught the first royal sorceress in the land and became friends with a princess."

"I guess you're right." Cedric said with smile.

He then looked towards his sister as she walked up to him and gave him a hug. "I'm sorry for objecting to your decision Cedy, it's just that she's my daughter and I'm worried she may not be ready and get hurt."

Cedric clasped both of her hands. "Cordelia I understand that you may worry for her but we got to have faith in her and besides you know I wouldn't give her a test she isn't ready for."

"You're right, I'm guess I'm having a hard time at letting her her go..."

"I know." He answered as he returned her hug then looked back at Roland. "Lets bring the children in."

Once Roland had sent Baileywick to get Amber and Calista Cedric thought it was best for his sister to go get some air and wash her face letting Miranda to lead her out.

When the the two children followed the steward in they both sat on the couch. With Amber sixteen years old now Roland realized that she was the spitting image of her deceased mother. Calista on the other hand had grown a bit taller. They both had were still wearing their original colors but their outfit styles were starting to change a bit.

"Why are we here, Uncle Cedy!" Calista asked still holding that child like excitement in her voice.

"Yes, please do tell." Amber said as she waved a fan in her face.

"Cedric and I have been talking and we think since you two will be working together in the future we decided to give you both a test." Roland said as he sat back down in his chair.

"A test?" The girl's asked.

"Yes, we want to see if you two can work together." Cedric said as he crossed his arms. "We think it's about time you can prove to us that you can use what we have taught you."

"What will we have to do?" Amber asked.

"Their will be and an Heir Convention where all of the the future rulers will gather there and get to know one another. While Amber will be trying to get know them Calista will come along for protection."

"Will there be danger?" Calista asked curious.

"I don't think so but you never know." Roland answered then continued. "If you past the test we will reward you two with something."

With the information about the test given both girls were urged to prepare for the upcoming trip this weekend and were asked to finish their homework before they left.

When the two girls left the office Cedric and Roland both hoped they would do well.
