Chapter 7

"After the war"

As they arrived back to the castle, Ronald and his army were welcomed by their friends at the entrance. "Let's all hail for Ronald. He defended the castle and saved the humans from the hands of Jedah," cried the crowd. They held a party at the castle court to celebrate their victory. Everyone was happy except for Daniel, who went to his room sulking at the balcony.

Ronald noticed that Daniel was not in the party, so he went to Daniel's room to see how he is doing there. "Daniel, don't you want to celebrate? We won the war and there's nothing to worry about since Jedah will never harm us again. C'mon… what's with the long face there? It's Lilith isn't it?" Ronald asked. Daniel nodded his head. "I guess you miss her… huh, Daniel?" Ronald asked trying to console Daniel. "Yeah… I can't believe that after all of the times we had, she would disappear like a bubble. I can't believe that she's gone," Daniel replied. "Daniel, you know sometimes we had to sacrifice everything for love. Including your time with Lilith. We don't need to be with someone else in order for a person to love another one. Besides, it's her fate to be with Morrigan and she can never escape it no matter what she or we will do about it," Ronald explained.

"Just leave me alone, Ronald. I'm not in the mood to celebrate," Daniel said. "Fine then, just don't let sadness overwhelm you. I wouldn't do that if I were you," Ronald said as he left. "Oh by the way, if this would cheer you up a little bit, maybe there is a way for us to separate Lilith from Morrigan for a meantime. This way we can also make Lilith a new permanent body," he added.

As Ronald left the room, he talked to one of his servants. "I would like to know how I can help my brother feel well," he asked one of his subjects. "Maybe since the two of you love two individuals that share the same body, we can separate them but it takes time to execute it," the servant replied. "Well then, now find a way to separate Lilith from Morrigan while I tend to my duties as the temporary ruler of Makai," Ronald told him.

As he stand in the balcony of his room, Ronald was thinking, and doesn't seem to be at ease even that he won the battle with Jedah. "Don't worry, Daniel. As your brother I'll make you happy as possible as I can but first I must expect any hostilities in here," he thought. He knew that someone is still angry at him but who could it be? Will he defeat him? Will he help Daniel in his problems? What danger awaits Ronald and the Makai? Soon, Ronald hoped that he won't harm any innocent people when this person comes. A new era of Darkness continues…
