For Love and Peace

Towards a New Adveture

Two months had passed since that beautiful and blissful moment. They had settled there to relax after all the conflict of their past and relaxed enjoying multiple activities such as shopping, swimming and sightseeing. After the first month Luz was freed from her cast and started rehabilitation, she was now walking with a cane and not for long but she was improving. Willow was cured from her injuries with only scars being the witness of them. After the second month had passed Luz was permitted by Amity to restart her training in martial arts and her weapons training. Amity joined Luz in her training wanting to keep an eye on her while training her body to gain more fighting stamina. Willow, Skara and Boscha were always going out to the beach, Boscha enjoyed the sun on her skin and seeing the two people that made her life happy, she also enjoyed the view of them in their swimsuits.

Two days ago Luz got a special black letter delivered by a white crow in the bedroom she was sharing with Amity on "Othrys". Luz was perplexed by this, she never knew someone who sended mail through white crow but accepted the letter nevertheless. The sun entered through the window illuminating the whole bedroom. The walls were white with golden strips, the marble floor was colder than ice but fresh in the heated days, the matrimonial bed's frame was made out of ebony wood. The room was beautiful and Amity's grandparents were opulent people and never cared how much they spent if they got what they wanted like the room attached to each main bedroom was just a gigantic closet and bathroom. Amity woke up by the light that came through the window but tried to resist shielding her vision with Luz's body but instead she found it was empty. Amity raised her head and squinted her eyes to protect them from the sudden light and found her standing beside the window, standing there with a black envelope in her hands with a conflicted expresion. Amity understood that this was something serious business and spared the joking and flirting comment she was about to say and decided to get out of the bed while being covered by the silky white bed sheets. -"Luz what happened?." Amity questioned but Luz was absorten staring into the black envelope. She got closer to Luz and spoke louder. -" Luz, come back to your senses and tell me what happened." Luz snapped out of her estupor and directed a lazy smile towards Amity. -"It's nothing, just a letter from someone I don't know. I believe that maybe it's some sort of blackmail or a threat but I don't know." Luz was conflicted in what course of action to take. Never in her life Luz had experienced something like this, she was used to risking her life in battle but not for something so extrange like this. AMity on the other hand was used to this and knew what to do. -"Let's open it and read it to know what we are facing, ok sweetheart?". Amity told Luz in a soft tone trying to reassure LUz that there was nothing they could not handle together. Luz smiled and nodded. Luz opened the letter and started reading the letter out loud:

"Dear Luz, this is your uncle Belos.

I know that we never had a special relationship between us and we never interac even if I knew of your existence. It's inexcusable what happened between your mother and the nobility and I profoundly apologise for my lack of control of the situacion. I mourn your mothers death every day but I want to give you a future free from the chains of revenge and guilt. When Alastor gave me the idea of marriage between you and Amity, I was delighted knowing fully who and how she was but I never asked your opinion and I'm sorry for that. I know from Lilith and Eda that you wanted to become a teacher in Hexside University and I will personally recommend you. I want to get to know you personally and try to connect with you, not as the emperor but as your uncle, so feel free to come to my house or invite me to yours if you want.

With love, your uncle.

P.D. your mother, my sister, left all her money to you and her marriage and proposal ring to you, maybe you can use it. They would feel proud of the woman you are, please never forget that"
