Chapter 6

Section 1: Lost, Magical Items

Many magical items that have been lost, will someday be used by a returning hero. Of course many people believe such items are lost on purpose and people still actually know where the items really are. In most cases, that is true. In other cases, that has happened but many people forgot about it and there wasn't a need for its return. Those items that are forgotten are rarely returned to their original settings.

Many magical Theologians go from house to house, asking people about items that they've heard of and ask for stories. Most of these items tend to be weapons; but in strange cases they are different things, such as a hairbrush or a bracelet.

If you ever find a magical item, you must find out as much as you can about it and return it to its natural habitat.

Shiarra made him read the questions aloud and then answer them to the best of his abilities. Then, when the lessons were over, she said, "Aaron, get ready for dinner. Don't wear anything inappropriate." With that, she left.

'Something's up,' Aaron thought. 'Maybe I should wear something nice for a change.'

Later…

Aaron transported himself to the entrance of the Great Dining room. He was also in fact impressed with his ensemble. It was simple, yet elegant in a guy sort of way. It was what he'd wear if he enjoyed parties and such. He made sure he looked okay, and then entered the Great Dining room casually.

Surprise etched in his face when he saw a girl at the table. But when she turned toward him, he realized it wasn't just any girl. It was the one he'd made fun of in the forest earlier that day. Then confusion struck his face. He bowed and said, "Welcome to the Enchanted Forest. My name is Aaron."

She was obviously was as confused as he was and seemed to not like the fact that he was there. She rose from the table and curtsied uncertainly. "Nice to see you again your highness. My name is Princess Jamie."

Aaron's eyes flashed and he looked over at his parents for an explanation. 'Are they trying to set me up?' he thought. Daystar saw his expression. "No, no Aaron it's not that." Aaron relaxed visually.

"Not what?" Jamie asked. It wasn't that she was being nosy, she just knew that it had something to do with her.

"Oh," Shiarra said, "he thought we were set.." She was cut off by Aaron and Daystar clearing their throats at the same time. Shiarra laughed at them and smiled. "What, why shouldn't she know? It's funny."

In spite of her training, Jamie started laughing a delighted laugh because she couldn't hold it in. It was hilarious to see Aaron look uncomfortable. Besides, Shiarra had laughed so she figured it might be all right.

As she settled into her temporary chambers and got into bed, she thought about Aaron. 'Maybe he's just being polite because he has to be. But he did look aweful handsome in that outfit he was wearing tonight.'

'Stop it!' she screamed in her head. 'He's rood, and inconsiderate, and cute, and...Ahh! Why do I like him? He laughed at me for no reason! I am so not going to go near him while I'm here!' With that, her thoughts trailed elsewhere and she finally relaxed and went to sleep.

Meanwhile, Aaron couldn't stop thinking of Jamie either. 'She's so cute when she gets mad. Maybe I should put more effort into being polite as well as my fire magic.' Then, theyboth went to sleep at the same instant.
