As I walk amongst the many blues, purples, yellows, and marron colored wild flowers I decided to go over to the alliums. I sat crisscrossed down in-between a patch of marron and purple circled colored buds and begin to gently pick some of them and make flower crowns with both colors. As I was melding the stems together I heard a pair of foot steps on the stone pebbled path. "Ah I thought you'd be here, considering your mother is throwing a fit in your room," there was a pause from the royal on the path "Again." He let out an annoyed sigh. As I let out an annoyed scoff. "What do you expect me to do Dad? She ruined literally everything!" I said setting the finished flower crown in my lap and throwing my arms in the air then falling onto my back. My father let out another sigh, this time my from my antics then my mothers, as he walked up and sat down beside me. "I'm not sure son, if I'm going to be honest I'm done with her antics as well." he said letting his shoulder relax, he had his casual clothing on, a basics white cotton shirt with his cloak on that slung off one of his shoulders, a deep blue to contrast with his void black and purplish skin. "It's not like we can kill her either." I commented. My father let out a chuckle and hit the side of my shoulder down to the ground. "Son, Nom that is not the way to go, and besides neither of us will probably be able to bare the weight of a responsibility like that." He said leaning his head down toward me his glowing purple eyes looking into my dulled colored green and red. 

"Though there is something." My father started off after standing up from the ground. "You said the person you hear only sings? Am I correct?" He questioned. I sat up from laying down and stared him dead in the face, "If your thinking about sending me to a mental hospital just because some how you noticed that I still hear them then no. They don't." Ah yes, sarcasm will get me out of this I thought after I spoke not wanting to have to go through that travesty again. "No, no," the king said taking a step back and waving his hands in surrender. "I think that maybe that voice your hearing might be.............. Bee." My father proposed the idea to me. "I mean it makes sense why would anyone else be able to save him, not only that but from what I remember, I was his only friend outside of the family of Gods." I said putting my hand to my chin considering the idea, "and every time I'm outside on the balcony it's almost like their calling for me to go to the forest." I said now standing up. I looked up to my fathers eyes hoping this wasn't some trick, but at last it wasn't. My father's eye shown with understanding and looked like he knew what he was doing next. He then signaled his hand, a servant appeared from the corner with a small sling pack and a backpack filled with what look likes travel supplies. 

"I believe this is where I say my goodbyes and safe travels." My father said handing me the supplies. I took it hesitantly from his hands, "Are you sure?" my father nodded his head. " And I put your favorite type of dagger in there so I know you'll be fine." He said cheerly throwing his arms up in the air, right after I finally slung the bags out of sight underneath my cloak. I will say it got a good laugh out of me. 

After I calmed down he dismissed the servant and put his hands on my shoulders looking me right in the eye. "Go find and make balance, let me walk you out, son." I nodded my head as we went back through the castle out to the front gate where my father signaled the guard to open the doors. "Good luck my son." he whispered by my ear and pat me on the back. As the doors opened. Walking out of the gates I readjusted my hood to hide my face better and went into town not knowing where to start, "I'm coming for you Bee just hold on tight a little longer."
