Chapter 10: meeting with an old friend
The boat was finally making it was into port of the castle town called Alvanista. It had taken longer then they thought just to get over the ocean. Especially with the summon spirit problems.
Klarth still didn't understand how a magic stone could make the spirit act so diffence so quickly. Were these magic stones from the god of war as well? Was he the reason why this was happening to the spirits? Klarth only hoped he could get some answers at the castle.
"Well here we are…" the captain said as he let go of the wheel. They were finally in they're boat place in port. Klarth nodded to him, "again thank you for taking us all this way…" the captain started to laugh a bit. "Think nothing of it. You save us..." he said with a laugh.
He nodded to the captain as the group left the boat. The boat quickly started out on the ocean again Back to the other port town. The group stood there watching for a minute or two. Then klarth slowly sighed. "Well. We should hurry to the castle before it closed for the night..." he whispered as the other three nodded to him.
"The castle only about a block again..." cless whispered looking down to Sara. She slowly nodded as the four started toward the inner city. The night lights were starting to come on. They only had about 20 minute to get to the castle that would mean.
They would have to move pretty quickly and they did. They finally made they're way to the main streets to where some steps were that would take them up to the castle. Sara found her self sighing trying to catch her breath.
"How…close are we..?" she asked looking over to cless who was catching his breath as well. "C-close. It up those steps..." he whispered as klarth and arche ran ahead of them. They both blinked seeing the two go on ahead of them. They didn't look tired at all. We're they just tired from the battle on the boat still?
Cless made his way over to help her to her feet. "Come on it just a bit more..." he whispered as he started to run up the stairs holding into her right hand as he did so. She did her best to keep up. As they made they're way up the stairs they could see klarth talking to a castle guard.
"I'm sorry sir. The castle is closed for the day..." the guard said answering klarth holding his spear by his side. "I told you…get Runeglom and tell him Klarth K Lester is here..." "He knows who I am…" klarth yelled crossing his arms.
The first guard slowly turned to the second as they whispered to each other. The second one headed inside to get Runeglom knowing talking with this person wouldn't do any good.
Cless shook his head a bit at klarth as Sara and him self slowly walk over to him as arche. "You always have to do it the hard way..?" he asked placing a hand on his forehead. "Hard way?" "They wouldn't listen so I had to do it this way!" he yelled looking a bit angry toward cless.
That person that klarth said. Sara knew that name from somewhere but where was the question. Why did she know the name Runeglom? She couldn't get that question out of her mind for some reason. She slowly placed a hand under her chin. As she did a guard with a man came out of the castle.
"This is the person. That was asking for you sir. Runeglom..." the guard said she quickly looked and knew why she knew that name. He was an elf that lived with humans! She knew then her cover would be gone now. He would sure know her as well. "Uh…" she whispered covering her mouth.
Runeglom quickly looked over to her. "…!" he looked at her in shock. Yup he knew her alright. "You're..." he whispered but she quickly shook her head at him. She hopes he would understand not to say another word. "…?" he looked a bit confused at her. Then he slowly understood.
"Oh..." he whispered quickly as klarth turned to him. "Runeglom...It been long..." runeglom looked out of it as he looked to the summoner. "…?" klarth looked confused at him. "Is something wrong..?" he asked looking to runeglom then to Sara. "No it nothing…just lost in thought..." he whispered giving klarth a small smile.
"You all have come a long way. Please come in…" he said stepping aside as the four enter the castle. Then Runeglom slowly followed behind them. "Is the king still awake..?" klarth asked walking side by side with him. He slowly nodded to klarth. "Yes after the guard told me you were here I ask the king to stay there a bit longer…" They stop in front of the king's room.
"But if I may ask. What is your reason for return here…?" he asked placing a hand under his chin. "Well..." Klarth said taking out the broken rings. Runeglom looked at them in shock. "It. it can't be…" he whispered touching one of them. "Yes. I was pretty surprised when I first saw it as well..." he whispered putting the rings away.
"We need a new letter to enter. The forest..." he said knowing it wouldn't be good because of what happened last time they were there. "Hmm…I'm sure. We can get you a pass. But…" Runeglom glared toward arche. Arche felt a sweat drop roll down the back of her head.
"Hehe..." arche whispered rubbing the back of her head. "But. The half elf will need to stay in the castle…" klarth nodded to Runeglom. "Understood we can make it there with just me, cless and Sara…" runeglom looked toward the other girl. "So. Her name is Sara…?" he asked still looking at her. She slowly blinked at him.
"Yes. She's mint cousin…" runeglom slowly nodded looking back to klarth. "Yes. You will be fine with her…" Runeglom opened the door as cless, klarth and arche enter. But Sara didn't. She slowly looked up at Runeglom. "..You should enter too..." he whispered closing his eyes.
"Thank you. For not telling who I really am..." she whispered closing her eyes. "You are two people but you aren't at the same time…" he whispered as he bowed to her. "Please stop that..." "I am just a human in this world..." Runeglom laughed a bit to him self. "Even so. I still think of you as princess naru...of the elves…" he said with a small smile.
"I give up that name a long time. Ago I am just the healer name Sara…now..." she whispered as she slowly enters the king's room. "Even so. Going there…you will have to be a half-elf again..." runeglom as he enters the king's room as well.
They stood in front of the king bowing as Sara and Runeglom. Runeglom took his place by the king. "My my. How nice it is to see you all again…" the king said with a small smile on his face. "I thank you for letting us to see you so late…" klarth whispered as he slowly got to his feet. Sara did a bow as well so the other wouldn't know that something had happened.
"Now now. Stop the bowing. You are heroes of the world after all..." they slowly did as they were told so. "Please tell me the reason you have come here…" the king whispered as he sat up a bit more. "Well. Sir lately I have seen the summon spirits of the world acting…diffence..." klarth started to say to see the king nod.
"Yes. We have as well…Efreet has been going crazy across sea…" klarth slowly nodded to the king words. "First sylph. Then gnome then undine. And now efreet…" klarth started to look over more worried. What would happen if even Luna or Maxwell became this way? He didn't want to even think about it. "Aside from efreet are the other spirits alright…?" Klarth asking looking toward the king again.
"Yes I believe so…they say some magic stone has been chancing them…" the king said holding into his staff that was by his side. "Then. It was that magic stone. Then…" "After we destroy the stone the spirits returned to normal again…" klarth said seeing the king nod. "Yes. We have seen dhaos has returned as well, we believe this is his doing…" klarth had thought as much.
"Now then. Do you have another reason for needing to see me…?" he asking feeling very tired. "Yes...sir...we do…" klarth said placing a hand in his pocket. "What would that be…?" he asked watching the summoner. Klarth pulling the broken rings from his pocket.
"I-I don't believe it…" the king whispered looking at the broken rings. "Sir. I know you will not like this. But we have to return to the elf's forest…" Klarth whispered as he placed the rings back into his pocket.
"Hmm...Your right I don't like it…" the king whispered as he glared toward arche. She started to laugh a bit rubbing the back of her head. Cless couldn't help but shake his head at arche. "What…?" arche asked glaring toward cless. "Don't what me. It was your fault for what happened last time…" arche hit cless with her broom stick.
"So..?" she yelled crossing her arms after. Cless rubbed the top of his head. "Sir…if we make arche stay in the castle then will you let us go to the forest..?" Sara asked saying something for the first time in front of the king. "Hmm? And you are…?" the asked wondering how this person got in here.
"This is Sara. Sir she is mint cousin…" king nodded understanding. "Oh...so then...that healer is..?" he asked to see the girl nod. "I'm sorry for your lost then…" Runeglom watched the girl. The girl slowly nodded to the king. "Do not worry about it sir…" she whispered looking toward the ground. "…" cless slowly looked toward her.
"But. What you said...yes...if the half elf name arche stay here…" he said placing his hand together. "Then I will let you three enter the forest to fix the rings..." The king said as he slowly stood up. "Runeglom make sure the pink hair girl stays here…" Runeglom nodded to the king then the king left the room.
Runeglom slowly looked toward the group again. "You heard him...arche will need to stay in the castle for the time being…" cless nodded to Runeglom. "Yes. So that problem doesn't happen again…" cless whispered as Sara slowly looked up hearing that. Runeglom slowly nodded watching the healer. "Well then...ms.arche please comes with me…" arche growled to her self and slowly followed Runeglom.
"You better be back quickly!" she yelled waving her arms around a bit. The three of them fell sweat drops roll down the back of they're heads. "Well we should get moving then we can get to the forest before night falls..." Klarth whispered as the three headed out of the castle.
Toward the forest of the elf's where normally no humans could enter. Why couldn't humans enter? Elf had a dislike for humans. For humans ways and other reasons. Some elf didn't mind them. But many of elves hated them so deeply. That is the place where Sara's secret would be finally found out.
