⊰ chapter six ⊱

Jungkook panicked as the woman from the medic examined Dara's cold face. Her eyes open wide as she stared at the ceiling, her mouth gaped like a hole of terror. She wouldn't move an inch and all the Prince was doing was shouting, "Do you have a cure or not?!"

Skovier slid out his sword, threatening the medics, "Speak up!"

When the medics begged with their hands clasped, Jungkook sighed. They shrieked from fear, "it does not look like a disease. You must see her to someone greater at the post. Her skin is as cold as the West Realm. If there is anything you need to let us know to fetch someone better...,"

Jungkook swallowed hard, her skin was as cold as West, her mouth as dry as East, her hair as gold as North, and her body as dead as South. The Prince grabbed the soulless body in his arms, roaring from the awakening pain across his arms as he commanded, "Skovier, get the carriage out!"

Without any due, the two men head out for the market. Skovier remained silent and non-questioning as Jungkook lead the way towards the end of the alley of the market. The space was empty and Jungkook was feeling sicker when Skovier volunteered to take charge of Dara, "Don't hurt yourself. Lead the way, I got the Queen."

As much as Jungkook hated the idea, he couldn't bare the pain his body was radiating. Keeping a close eye on the man Dara trusted for unknown reasons, Jungkook secretly motioned the compass in his palm at the elf's door and the glass house appeared. Skovier swore he was about to drop Dara when the lit shop appeared, clocks chiming inside. The grand elf came walking down his aisle along with his fairy allies to see the blue-ish colored Queen. Her skin was as blue as the oceans, "What have you done?!"

"The compass clapped back on her," Jungkook said as Skovier placed Dara on the ground for the elf to examine her. He touched her soft skin with his wrinkly hands, tracing her cheeks with his eyes closed. His hands hovered over his eyes, feeling the dreams. His eyes flung open, "Someone seized her mind to the East Realm. We must bring it back before her thoughts are stolen."

"W-what? Bring her back then," Jungkook mumbled, his lips trembling.

Skovier was speechless. He still wondered how the glasshouse appeared out of blue.

"One of you need to bring her back." the elf urged, "There is no way one's mind can walk back on its own. Someone must always show the path."

"What do I need to do? Hurry, tell me," the Prince asked. The elf let out his hands and Jungkook immediately passed on the compass, glancing over at Dara's motionless body on the ground.

"The compass shall do the work if one of you jumps in the Outern River. You will find her if luck is on your side in the Eastern realm. But you must take something that belongs to her, or else she will not recognize you. We have very little time." the elf instructed.
