The New Quest
"Garion, this soup is simply marvellous!" Ce'Nedra said.
"It better be, I paid a lot for this new cook," Garion, the Overlord of the West, said sourly.
"Awwww, come on, don't be such a grouch, Papa," said Geran. Garion grunted while Beldaran, with her serious face, ate her lunch quietly.
The sky was a beautiful light blue, and the Rivan King was having lunch with his family. The Godslayer was not in a good mood- the Rivan Warder, Kail, who was now in his sixties, had just brought him some unpleasant news, and he was thoroughly upset. Also, the many years of being seperated from his friends had a hand in it too.
Geran, who was now twenty-two, was a handsome young man who showed some promise of being the next King, while Beldaran was as closed-lipped as ever. Ce'Nedra had grown(only a bit, mind, and she was still dreadfully tiny) and Garion had not changed at all.
A messenger came in at that point. "Your Majesties, someone called Relg wants to see you. Do I let him in?"
"Relg? Of course! Show him in at once!" Garion said, all his unhappiness evaporating at once.
Relg the Ulgo came in. Garion looked at him closely. He was no longer the Ulgo zealot he was when they had first met. His skin was now tanned, and he was no longer as formal as he had once been. "Belgarion, I need to speak with you." he said. Garion told his retainers to go down for a while, and when they were alone, he asked, "Come sit down for a while, Relg, I haven't seen you in a long long time."
Relg took a seat gratefully and said, "The Holy Gorim wants to speak with you." "The Gorim? But I thought you lived in Maragor, Relg." Garoin asked.
"Yes, but I went back to the caves of Ulgo for a visit, and the Gorim told me to convey you to him."
"Oh, alright, I'll gather up my servants and set off at once." Garion said, turning to the bellpull that would summon a servant if pulled.
"No, Belgarion, the Gorim asked me to bring only you and Ce'Nedra," Relg said.
"Only me and Ce'Nedra? But Relg, what about my children?"
"No, they can't come. Please, Belgarion, this is a matter of gravest urgency."
Garion was startled. "What is it, Relg?"
"The Gorim did not tell me, but I was told that it was," Relg shrugged.
"Come on, Garion, we'll only be gone for a few weeks...I want to see the Gorim!" Ce'Nedra weedled. Then she turned to Relg, "Is the Gorim still alive? The old one, I mean."
"Yes, he is. It seems that Holy UL is not done with him just yet,"Relg replied, "He still has to train the new Gorim."
"Alright then, we'll set off for Prolgu at once. I'll summon Kail," Garion said, and tugged n the bellpull. He conversed briefly with the servant that came in, and the servant nodded and left.
Not long after, Kail came in. "You summoned me, Belgarion?" Kail asked. "Yes, come in, Kail. There is something I ant to discuss with you," Garion repied. "Relg here," he pointed to the Ulgo, "says that I have to go to Prolgu as soon as possibe. Alone."
"Alone? But Your Majesty, the mountains of Prolgu are dangerous. Wouldn't you accept a escort of some kind?"
"Oh, and so the chase after Zandramas wasn't?" Garion said drily.
"That's different," Kail growled.
"I fail to see why. Do you suppose you could explain it to me?" Garion tapped his foot on the floor expectantly, watching the poor Kail sputter, looking for a reason. "That's enough, Kail. I'm going to Prolgu with my wife, and that's all."
Kail sighed. "I should have known better than to argue with you, Your Majesty. Alright, I'll prepare your stuff for you to leave at first light tomorrow morning."
"Good lad."
Kail smiled a bit ruefully and left the room.
***The next day...***
Garion was standing on the ship prepared for him. His kingdom was on an island, after all. He looked out at the sea and sighed.
It was a long time since he had gone out like this, and he found he liked it. Th sad thing was that Belgarath nor Aunt Pol was there. He sighed again and went below.
