Journey of a Prince in a magical world

Chapter 4: The first temple

(Aboard Bridget's ship Minato P.O.V.)

It's been about half an hour since we started sailing towards the temple island and after throwing the last of Dartin's crew corpse overboard I haven't had anything to keep me entertained for the rest of the trip, I almost fell asleep a couple of time, in fact... I really feel like this time I'm lights out.

Bridget: Oi Guv', quit fallin' asleep over there will ya?

Minato: Huh? Oh yeah, sorry about that...

Bridget: If yer that bored why don't ya go talk to someone? That should keep you awake.

Minato: Fine fine, wait what's up with "Guv'"?

Bridget: Never mind that, why don't ya go talk to Morgan or Azerin? They both seem pretty lonely dontcha agree Guv'? 

Minato: I see where you're getting at... And I'm not sure I like it...

Bridget: oh and why not? They're really easy on the eye and just about yer age, and as a bonus they're both royalty.

Minato: So you noticed it too didn't you? Yeah not sure who Azerin thinks she's fooling with the "Wandering Priestess" thing but no one from the church dresses as fancy as she does, and she didn't even come up with a fake name, straight up using her real name won't keep her identity a secret, unless there's another Waldenstein family somewhere.

Bridget: Yeah, she may not be the brightest one here but she makes up for it in other ways, or maybe yer more interested in Morgan.

As soon as those words fly out of her mouth I can feel my face heating up, and Bridget takes notices this as well as a huge smirk pops up on her face.

Bridget: Aha! So yer into the big brain ones ain't ya?

Minato: Not you too!

Bridget: There's no denying it Guv', and you make a real good couple to boot! Hol' up lemme call her for ya. OI Mor-

I quickly put my hand over her mouth to stop her from calling out possibly everyone in the ship, it's already annoying with just Kei and Josuke, now I don't need everyone else nagging me about me liking Morgan, especially Aigis.

Minato: Shut up! Don't just go screaming around, I don't need the whole world knowing this!

After a while of Bridget squirming, I take my hand off her mouth so she can return to the boat's steering wheel.

Bridget: Alright alright, I won't scream Guv', but only if you go talk to her.

Minato: Fine, but that will have to wait, looks like we're finally getting to the island.

I look towards the island seeing a vast green forest and a river flowing with clear water that falls  into the salty water of the ocean, and as Bridget gets ready to dock the boat I join the rest of my party getting ready to walk towards the temple.

Aigis: As soon as we leave we take a trail that should get us to the temple in about 20 minutes.

Kei: Any threats on the island?

Aigis: No, it should be safe, the wildlife is consisted of herbivores, safe for a few bugs and fishes, and there shouldn't be any troublemakers here, right Minato?

Yikes, I could almost feel a stab from her words, but considering what I did back home I can't really blame her, I just feel a bit annoyed she just calls me out like this though.

After leaving the boat and walking a bit, following the trail Aigis mentioned we reach a cliff side so high I don't even think there's anything down there, other then the seemingly endless fall there are two big sets of stairs leading to a waterfall that breaks into two different streams of water where the stairs end, after taking a better look I'm able to see what seems to be the temple's entrance at  the end of the stairs.
