Chapter Two

The lonely cold night rain together with the gloomy aura of the night sky added a mournful atmosphere in the palace. Everyone ranging from the palace workers to the king's squire were practically crying over the kidnapped princesses. To add to their mourning, the queen was still unconscious. Their beloved queen.

After a few hours of fanning to the queen, she finally opened her eyes. She was a bit groggy but then she remembered what happened few hours ago. Crystal clear. She began to weep again.

"Oh my poor children. Huhuhu..."

The king who was slumped on the bed woke up with a start. He enclosed his wife in a loving hug and the queen's reduced to quiet sobs. They stayed like that for few minutes until the queen wiped her tears with a clean cloth. The king did not utter a word but patted her back instead.

"Lilith. Didn't she say that our children were somewhere here? Maybe at the mountains or the forest…"

"That's not the problem. Waaa~"

The king cringed for he's sure he said something that upset her.

"W-what if...what if my little Flachi was eaten by a tiger? Or maybe my Mony is...waaaaa~~~"

The king was crying as well. He couldn't bear to see his wife grieving so much. He signaled his trusted servant to come near him. He took a vial that contains a red liquid and put the half of the content in a small cup.

"Drink this."

The queen couldn't argue for she's too weak to do so. And too sad. When the potion took effect, the queen fell asleep again. He stood up and went to the garden where the queen would meet the fairies.

"Oh Fairies of the Far-off Land, hear my call."

Immediately, Lilith came. She was able to travel there faster because she's the youngest. But the reason they did not use that garden when going to the party is because of the oldest fairy.

"You call, my lord?"

"Yes. I can't take it anymore. What should I do with the queen? If she wakes up again, she'll do nothing but cry."

There was a moment of silence. Each was thinking of a way to help the queen endure the deathly loneliness.

"I know. I shall visit the queen in her dreams. There I shall execute something and for sure when she wakes up, she will be back to normal."

Lilith sighed. The king was worried.

"You're not planning to take her memories of her two children?"

"Nope. I never and have never intended to do so. That'd be cruel."

And so, Lilith left the garden and flew towards the bedchamber of the queen. The queen look anorexic. She was deathly pale as if the colors of her beautiful face were drained. Lilith closed her eyes and entered her dreams as she had said.

The moment the queen woke up, colors went back to her pretty face. The king was overjoyed. The queen looked more positive and determined. Nobody knew what happened inside her dream. It's a secret between the fairy and the queen.
