Into the Other World

38.

"Amara has returned",someone announced.
When the others heard this they ran inside to the courtroom to meet her.

"Your majesty",Amara said as she bowed before Crystal.
"You must be tured my dear go and rest",said Crystal.
"Forgive me your majesty but I must train with the others",said Amara even though she was tired from the trip.
"They won't start without you,go and rest and we will discuss our plans later",said Crystal.
"As you wish your majesty",said Amara and she took her leave.

Ivy and the others got to the courtroom and greeted their friend,she looked frustrated so they held her no longer and let her go to rest.

Amara,the must cunning of all the creatures in Ashness was half wolf and half witch,she was seen fit by Crystal to go on a mission the others wouldn't be able to complete. She was sent to spy on Ashness and report back to Crystal of what she had seen and heard,with her cunning mind and unfathomable skills she could be able to do this task easily and since she was more than loyal to Ivy she was the strongest among the group below Ivy.

"Prince Rafe is something bothering you?",said Lucy.
"Have you ever experienced a broken heart?"said Rafe staring at the floor.
"I'm afraid I haven't",said Lucy.
"Sit down will you",said Rafe,"It looks bad if you stand up".
"But Prince Rafe I..."
"Just call me Rafe",he interrupted,"Come on sit down".
Lucy obediently sat at the edge of the bed,"Pri... I mean Rafe do you think Ivy is strong enough to face your mother?"
"With Ivy and Amara on our side we could actually bring her to her knees and burn Ashness into ashes",he said full of confidence.

"Is that so?",said Crystal,"It seems she's already weakening."
The more Amara told Crystal about what she saw the more it became clear that Claudia had finally lost herself.
"In two days we shall attack Ashness",said Crystal,"Prepare yourselves."
She then went on to finish her royal duties.

Amara and Ivy were sitting in the royal library still examining and planning their attack and it seemed like they could achieve victory in just one day.

"A lot has happened since I was away",said Amara,"But you no matter what must never back down."
"I've missed you so much I was about to come search for you myself",said Ivy.
