It wasn't the first time she was on a horse, but it was the first time she had been in the desert and even though all she was doing was sitting she was getting really thirsty.
"Drink this." Taking the sack from her blue haired savior Shizuka drank the liquid inside. Humming in appreciation as the sweet liquid slid down her throat.
"Thank you." Her voice was a mere whisper but was heard over the soft movement of the sand.
"It was my pleasure." The redhead couldn't contain her blush at the smile the woman gave her. Hiding her eyes behind her bangs she stayed silent for the ride.
"We're here." Looking up she watched as they approached a giant kingdom, high stone walls protecting the Eden within. As the gates open her breath caught in her throat, even though they were surrounded with desert for miles. The whole palace was a thing of beauty, the garden that surrounded the castle was full of life, animals that were probably foreign lived in abundance.
"Welcome back Kisara." Standing at the doors in a very in formal greeting was a man of royalty as anyone could tell. He chestnut hair was short but longer than the man Shizuka knew to be the man's reincarnation.
"You're Seth." Her voice she then realized was dry, as she had only had one drink through the time it took to cross the desert.
"I am, and you I believe, are our visitor! Let's get you a room. Come now." Kisara as if not being able to say anything against that man instantly followed him. But not before helping Shizuka off the horse. Shizuka wondered briefly why she was there, and also briefly wondered about the riddle. It was a constant itch in the back of her mind
"Though this is where the story begins, and the story must continue with out such faith little would be seen and without each other neither will return."
She decided to dwell on it later as she had just walked into a room of such beauty it made her gasp.
Finally some meat to this story, the chapters are so short but I just find that a story like this shouldn't be told in large installments. At least not until everything is actually settled and stuff.
