Let me clarify this whole entire story. Arthur, now 22 years old is still in England because he is still not finished with school, only few more days of his school year and he is nearly done in college. His friend, Aiyla now 15, is still in Connecticut where she helps her mother and sister in their small store in the town. Only 7 more days before the gates to the 7 kingdoms open. Arthur really misses everyone and it is also that he has not returned in Connecticut yet because school year is not yet over. While he is there, he always received letters from his Grandfather Archibald; in those letters are also some messages from his fellow friends the minimoys and also from max and darkos. They always send letters to each other so that Arthur won't get lost from whatever that is happening in the 7 kingdoms. While Arthur waits for 3 more days before school ends and finally he and his parents can go back in his grandparent's house, he studies so hard in college.

It is a beautiful Monday morning, Arthur can't really help but think about what he is gonna do at the village. He was very happy, started and finished his breakfast and waited at the bus stop for the school bus to arrive. And when he was waiting, he reads his journal about the adventures he, Selenia, Betameche, Aiyla and everyone's been having. The bus arrived kind of late so he got to school late also. He got to his first subject classroom and when he got there, he realized that his classmates were taking a quiz. The teacher looked at him and had a weird look. She told him to go to his seat, bring out a 1 whole paper and with a pen and start his quiz on number 17 because she cannot repeat the other questions because it is nearly time for them to go to the field for a few minutes and plant some small trees. Arthur felt frustrated because he is pretty sure that he is going to get a very low score. The school bell ring and every college student went to the small field right outside their school, cleaned the place up and after that, they all started planting. Arthur's teacher, Miss Loran went to him and apologized that he was not able to finish the quiz much. Arthur felt a little better because even though he got a low score, but he is still happy because he will soon be with the love of his life, Princess Selenia. Besides, he is a straight "A" student. When the tree planting was done and it was time for their break, Arthur went outside the school and went to a payphone. He contacted Archibald all the way from England to Connecticut. His grandfather answers the telephone that was ringing.

-"Hello?" asked Archibald

-"Hey, grandpa, it's me Arthur. How are you and grandma?"

-"Oh, We are very fine. How 'bout you?" he replied happily

-"I'm great"

-"So, are you ready about the next seven days?" Archibald asked excitedly

-"How could I not? Of course I am. I've been waiting for almost thousands of days to go back to the village" answered Arthur

-"Oh, have you red [read] all your letters and messages from me and also from the minimoys?"

-"Yes, I did. Even it was so tiny I tried to read their runes. I've memorized the minimoy runes already; I had a hard time at first but now not so much" said Arthur

-"I've memorized them a very long time ago. Also some Dwellafel runes" said Archibald

-"I tried to memorize the Dwellafel runes but it is just so hard. I'm still stuck at letter A", jokes Arthur

-"Heh, try to say that like many times, I did too. So when are you coming back? Your grandmother could not wait any longer"

-"I'm coming back by the next 4 days. After graduation, my parents and I will immediately go back there, grandpa"

-"Oh, once you are in the country already, make sure you call. We'll be waiting, "

-"Sure, whatever comes first."

-"Okay."

-"Oh, I almost forgot, are you joining the Barlemous race that has been confirmed by King Sifrat at the games. He sends me a letter this morning and I'm pretty sure it will be very fun for you to join"

-"When's the race?"

-"When you get there in the village, care to join?"

-"I don't know" said Arthur

-"It will be a new traditional game they will be having once the hero or king and even friend returns to their peaceful land. Did I mention the princess Selenia herself is joining the race?"

-"She is? Why didn't you say so? Okay, send the faithful king a message that I will be joining the game or race."

-"I know you would. Haha, okay, so how is school?"

-"Very fine, speaking of school, I have to get back to class. We only have a few minutes of break time."

-"Okay Arthur, Be well always"

-"Yes, grandpa, thank you. Tell grandma I miss her too"

-"She already knows that, now go back to class"

-"Okay. See you and talk to you again soon"

Arthur drops the phone and ended the conversation. After the very good chat with his grandpa, he went back to class. Then after class, he went home.
