Roan led me towards his village, it was cold and the snow was getting even taller. I shivered and pulled the big shawl around me tighter.
"We're almost there Kassandra, we will get you some warmer and clothes then i'll take you to see my mother, the queen." Roan said as we walked over the top of the hill and that's when I saw the village. There had to be hundreds, thousands of people in Roan;s village.
"What will happen after I met your mother?" I asked looking up to him.
"My mother will most likely want to get you settled with some warmer clothing and then get you to healer to get your wrist checked out from your rough landing. Then you can probably take a little bit of a nap because I can see most definitely that you are dead on your feet from the landing and long walk that we have had." Roan said and I saw three men approach us and I looked up to him scared.
"It's alright, they are seconds guarding the village from possible attackers that we could have. Just stay quiet for a moment and don't worry." He said quietly not looking down to me.
"Hainofa Roan, Chon glong raun yu?" (Prince Roan, who joins you?" They asked in the foreign tongue that Roan had been talking in when he first met me.
"Em Kom Skaikru, em seintaim laik a natblida." (She is a sky person and also a Nightblood.) He said pulling back part of my hair to reveal the black blood that ran down the side of my head.
"Em slip daun kom skai?" (She fell from the sky?) He nodded and the guards stepped aside and we continued walking into the village where several people were staring at both Roan and I.
"Why are they staring at us Roan?" I asked him quietly.
"No one here has ever seen a sky person ever. What even makes you more special is you blood. You're special and no one would dare mess with you unless they wanted to die by Queen Nia, she would never allow you to die when we need all the nightbloods we can find if we wish to secure the throne and lead all twelve of the clans someday. So far we have one other Nightblood, she's a year older than you are, but I'm quite sure the two of you will get along just fine with one another. Her name is Ontari.
Someone yelled and they directed Roan over to them and he grabbed my hand and pulled me in that direction and we entered a building and I looked around at the beauty of the place it made me think of a castle of princess in the books that Mom and Dad used to read to me before bedtime. And at the head of the room I saw a women sitting in what appeared to be her throne and I guessed it was Roan's mother, Queen Nia.
"Roan, I have heard and now see that you have found a Skaikru Natblida, is that true?" She asked and Roan moved my hair back as he had done to show the warrior to reveal the blood dripping down my face. She got up from her throne amazed, "Impossible." She came over to me and pulled my hair back herself and felt the wound and winced at the tough. "What's your name girl?" She asked looking down at me.
"Kassandra Kane." I told her speaking up to make sure I was heard.
"Well Kassandra, were going to take you in. Welcome, Hainofi Kassandra Kom Azgeda to your new home." She said putting her hand on my shoulder.
