"Hm...I think we should move on from here. It's much too dangerous to stay here." Zeldris proposed. "Are you sure? Where should we head off to?" Elizabeth asked, still worried for Zeldris' safety. "I heard from one of the residents that there's this place called the forest of white dreams. Apparently a giant snake lives there." Zeldris explained. "A...giant... snake?" Elizabeth stammered, frightened by the mere idea. "Yes, and if I'm lucky, it's one of the Ten Commandments."

Morning rises as Zeldris knocked on the bathroom door. "Lady Elizabeth?" Zeldris asked quietly. She opened the door delicately, having finished brushing her hair. "Yes?" Elizabeth said, smiling softly. "Just seeing if you were up. It's incredibly foggy outside so I need you to stay close to me at all times, alright?" Zeldris explained carefully. "Alright! Hm..." Elizabeth muttered, now looking carefully at Zeldris. "Is something wrong?" Zeldris asked. "Sir Zeldris, would you mind if I try and brush your hair?" Elizabeth asked kindly. "My...hair? Why?" Zeldris asked, slightly blushing. "Well, you do have a cowlick sticking out. I'd love to help you with it." She said sweetly "I...suppose it wouldn't hurt." He said, blushing more. He stepped forward a little, Elizabeth slowly sitting him down on the seat. She lightly brushed the cowlick multiple times...until it suddenly BOINGED back up. "Oh...Oh my..." Elizabeth said in confusion. "Yeah...it's why I don't use the hairbrush often..." Zeldris admitted, with a blank face. "Have...you ever considered getting a haircut, Sir Zeldris?" She asked curiously.

"No."

The two began exploring the forest, making sure to keep close to each other like Zeldris instructed. "So what was it about the giant snake that made you believe a Ten Commandments member was here, Sir Zeldris?" Elizabeth asked, looking around. "If my suspicions are correct, it's the Commandment of Faith." Zeldris stated. "Oh my... Could the Commandment of Faith's power revolve around serpents?" Elizabeth thought to herself before she heard a WOOSH in the woods. Zeldris immediately stopped in his tracks before turning to Elizabeth. "Listen very carefully. Whatever I tell you to do, any specific order...you must do the exact opposite." Zeldris quietly whispered to her. "The...opposite...?" Elizabeth muttered.

A rustle of the bushes behind was heard, both turning to it. Out walked...Elizabeth?! "Is that...me?" She stammered, obviously freaked out. Zeldris looked around as only more and more sounds came about with even more Elizabeths coming. So many to where in a blink, he lost the real one to the crowd.

"Sir Zeldris, what's going on?"

"Sir Zeldris, you know it's me, right?!"

"She's lying, I'm the real one."

"Alright...We'll have to find the real one with a test. Everyone of you, jump up as high in the air as you can." Zeldris ordered. Every single Elizabeth had jumped...except for one who had remembered what he told her to do. Zeldris moved quickly and punched all the fake Elizabeths back to the ground. Elizabeth flinched, seeing them all plop to the floor but regained her composure when they all disappeared into puffs of smoke. Little creatures appeared from them and ran off into the distance. "Lady Melascula!" They cried, running to safety. "What were those?" Elizabeth wondered. "Hide and Seeks. Annoying little things that shapeshift in order to confuse their victims. I've had to fight them off many times before" Zeldris explained. They heard the Hide and Seeks reporting their failure to someone in the distance. They walked over to see them with...The Giant Snake?! It's scales with pure white with a few purple spots around on it's face. It's long body stretched out to where the end couldn't be seen. "We apologize, Lady Melascula! We failed to keep the holy knights away!" One of them said before the snake turned to the two, slowly slithering up to them. Elizabeth was scared stiffness, unable to move out of pure fear but Zeldris walked up to it. "Hey, Mela!" He said with a friendly tone.

"...Captain!" Melascula's tail gently wrapped around him and held him up to her face. "My...It's been so long! I was worried that something might have happened..." She said with a surprising soft and gentle voice. "Come on, you know it'll take much more to kill me, Mela." Zeldris reassured, with a confident smile. "Ri...Right, sorry..." Melascula stammered before seeing Elizabeth. "Who's this?" She asked. Elizabeth was both scared of the giant snake before her and shocked that this was Melascula of Faith. She looked absolutely nothing like the woman in the wanted poster. "This is Elizabeth, Princess of Liones." Zeldris introduced. Elizabeth took a deep breath before talking, not wanting to be rude to Melascula. "It's...It's very nice to meet you, Lady Melascula." She stammered. "Ah! P...Princess?!" Melascula yelled, the snake's head shaking back and forth in panic. "Captain, you should've warned me! Oh my, oh my, I've frightened the royalty...Here, let me change into something more presentable..." Melascula exclaimed in a hurry, shrinking down into a young looking woman with pink hair. A magical glow emits, spawning a white body suit with a pink bow in the center. Thigh highs reaching up to the top of her legs as she slowly stepped forward with an apologetic look. "I'm very very sorry, your highness. It was in no way my intention to frighten you..." She stammered shyly, blushing intensely. Elizabeth's face melts, seeing Melascula was really just a timid little thing and in no way a monster. "Oh, it's okay. I'm not scared anymore, I promise!" She reassured, trying to soothe the blushing woman.

Zeldris was smiling, watching the entire scene. He knew these two were gonna get along just fine. Melascula took a deep breath, regaining her composure. "Sorry if my boys caused you any trouble, they were only trying to protect me from holy knights. If you don't mind me asking, your highness, why have you two come all the way out to the forest of white dreams?" Melascula asked. "To look for you, Lady Melascula. It's a long story..." Elizabeth said.

"And that's why we're searching for the commandments, to put a stop to the holy knights." Elizabeth finished, concluding the extensive explanation. "I see... You poor thing, I'm terribly sorry that you've been put through all this..." She said with a sympathetic look. "What do you say, Mela? Wanna help us?" Zeldris proposed. "Absolutely." She answered with a soft smile. "You will be leaving us, Lady Melascula?" A Hide and Seek asked with a sad tone. "Afraid so. I'm gonna miss you, boys..." Melascula said, a sad expression filling her face but it was short lived as they felt the weather start to change dramatically. "That's odd...we never gotten much rain out here." Melascula pointed out, looking around. Suddenly lighting came striking down on the group. All of them now caught in restraints. "I...I can't move" Elizabeth muttered, trying all she could to move a single muscle. Out of the fog, a man in a suit of armor with pink hair walked up to them.

"At last, we meet. Ten Commandments, Zeldris of Piety and Melascula of Faith." A man said, stepping out from the shadows.
