Hello everyone. Here is chapter 28. I hope that you will enjoy it. :)
Andrio and Lilac continued to fight alongside their fellow Merlinians in the war against Morgana Le Fay as the fighting went on for many months until eventually it was Merlin and the Merlinians who came out victorious while Morgana and her Morganians retreated once again.
During those months, Lilac had become pregnant with her and Andrio's child with the couple becoming happy at the prospect of being future parents to their child as well as the fact that they couldn't wait for the day when they would hold their child in their wings for the first time.
While that was happening, princess Jewel is also pregnant with her and Prince Blu's children as the news spread fast across kingdom which led to multiple celebrations at the prospect of the future prince and princesses being born with the thought only making them more happy.
Hearing about his friend being pregnant with her children, Andrio quickly went to consult the great dragon as he wondered if the future births of both his and Lilac's child as well as the royal family's children are going to have any impact on future events with the thought running through Andrio's mind.
In his rush to see the great dragon, Andrio had no idea that prince Blu and princess Jewel had spotted him running towards the underground tunnel as they began to follow him into the tunnel before spotting him entering a deep dark cave where they eventually saw Andrio consulting with a dragon.
"Drago, I need to ask you something, very important" said Andrio as he got to the point. "Does the future birth of mine and Lilac's child, have an impact on future events?".
"They, indeed, do, young warlock, a big impact at that" said Drago as he smiled at Andrio. "Your child will become a very powerful sorcerer, someday".
"How powerful, Drago?, like more powerful than Morgana?" asked Andrio which Drago confirmed. "So, you're saying that mine and Lilac's child will be Morgana's doom?".
"Yes, young warlock, you see, Morgana is afraid" said Drago as he began to explain. "She's afraid because Merlin is not the only one, who will bring about her downfall".
"So, that means, mine and Lilac's child can kill her?" asked Andrio which Drago, also, confirmed. "But can she be defeated by mine and Lilac's child alone?".
"Yes, your child is the key to killing Morgana for good" said Drago as he explained. "Because it will be the child's love, that will destroy Morgana's hate".
"Ok, so, what about princess Jewel and prince Blu?" asked Andrio as he brought up the next topic. "Does the future birth of their children, have an impact on future events?".
"Like your child, they do have a big impact, young warlock" said Drago as he chuckled. "They are destined to bring harmony and prosperity to their future kingdom".
Andrio nodded in understanding as he watched Drago fly away before running back through the underground tunnel where he was spotted by princess Jewel and prince Blu, the two royals having shocked expressions on their faces as they couldn't believe that Andrio is a sorcerer.
Knowing that he was caught, Andrio began explaining to them about his destiny to protect princess Jewel as she is the future Queen of the kingdom and the one destined to bring magic back to her father's kingdom which both princess Jewel and prince Blu did their very best to understand.
Eventually princess Jewel and prince Blu understood what Andrio was trying to explain to them along with accepting the fact that magic isn't just used for evil purposes, it is also used for good purposes like saving people's lives as well as saving them the trouble of having to clean an whole pile of dishes.
Unfortunely the three knew that the laws of the land, even though they had been relaxed, still stands as a sorcerer can be executed for having or practicing magic with the mere thought of having Andrio executed shaking both princess Jewel and prince Blu to the core as they knew that Andrio is their friend.
Luckily they decided to keep the revelation a secret from the others as they knew that if the secret was leaked out to the public, many of the people would be calling to the King to have Andrio hanged or burned at the stake or have his head chopped off just for being a sorcerer and an innocent one.
They got out of the underground tunnel when it was announced that King Eduardo has decided to retire from being King and he also decided to pass the crown to prince Blu, who was stunned at the fact that he was chosen to taken on such a big responsibility, but, he knew that it was his duty as prince to do so.
Andrio, himself, was happy at the announcement of Eduardo stepping down from being King as he knew that it will finally bring about a time of peace and prosperity for the whole kingdom as well as a fresh start for the many people who have spent most of their lives witnessing sorcerers being executed.
While that was happening, one of Morgana's spies had been watching and the spy knew that the announcement of Eduardo's decision to step down from being King is not a good thing for his master as he knew that Morgana is not going to like the fact that her enemy, princess Jewel, is now about to become the new Queen.
Speaking of Morgana, she didn't take the news very well and she was now beyond furious at the prospect of there being new rulers of a kingdom that she believed she was destined to rule with the mere thought of Blu becoming King as well as princess Jewel by his side as Queen making Morgana even more furious.
