Chapter 20th The Night Of The Romancing Prince
It would take two hours to reach the village of Luxinburg. It was already dark. But for Nightingale & Janice. Lucky for them the full moon was out fully. With a slight tint to center around the aurora of the moon.
Both riders were exhausted from from the ride. A number of the residents hanging around the village. Were looking for them any way with orders from Jeffies.
"What now?" Janice replied still sitting on her saddle. While Nightingale had gotten down from his to loosen up his stiffened muscles with the travel. It was not an easy ride for the most part. Taking in the fresh air of the evening. Clearing out his lungs having picked up dust along its way.
He saw an older man in his late forties, maybe. When he came up to the prince. Knowing full well who he was in the first place. "Your highness, I am Jonas, I have orders from Jeffies to take you into the mountain caves for now. Inside stored with all kinds of supplies for you both, including a mineral spring to bath or if you like a shower." He says with a wry grin.
Janice stayed on top of her horse to start moving off behind.
She had given a strange look at Nightingale. She was hoping, they would be able to trust them. They would be able to find out soon.
It wouldn't take look maybe twenty minutes before arriving at the main entrance. It was more like a fortress instead of a cave. There were several guards looking out for Turner's men in case they might had been followed.
When one of the sentries opened the metal bolted door, it was an amazing world inside. Filled with all kinds of activities going on.
There were torches lit inside. With the two being escorted deeper inside of the fortress. Every one they were walking past, their were stares. Knowing full well who it was any way.
Nightingale was truly amazed just how beautiful this place was, as with Janice. She had wondered why Nightingale had never heard of this place before. Unless he did knew. But had to keep quiet to protect them, until one day they were needed to take back his country once again. Like with the likes of Turner and his croonies.
