Dream opened her eyes from abrupt shaking of her body.

"Sarah, Lady Queenie?"

Dream suddenly became alert from the strange expressions the two women.

"What is going on-..."

"Sorry Dream, we do not have time."

For the first time Queenie called Dream by her first name. It shows that there is an urgent matter.

"I did not know, that there is such a thing. But Soliard have a device to track me down."

Dream widened her eyes. She can fully see that Queenie is not feeling good about the situation. She is biting her nails and her face looks like a sour plum.

She bended over and faced Dream.

"Listen to me, we have to separate from this point."

"No!" Dream doesn't like the idea as she believes that they can help each other if they stay together. Night will help them and ...

"Hey you black blob owl! Listen to me carefully!"

Dream was surprised when Queenie called out to her shadow. Queenie knows about Night.

"What a rude child. That is nnot how you ask a revered being like my great self."

Night slowly came out of Dream's shadow.

"Night?!" Dream is utterly confused.

"What?! That is??!" Sarah yelped from surprise.

"WE DO NOT HAVE TIME FOR THIS!!!"

Everyone was startled and focused on Queenie.

"You should at least explain." However Night who the only remained calm, responded to Queenie .

Queenie deeply sighed.

"It seems, with his over possesiveness, Soliard had the mages developed a device to track the Heart seal bearer."

Queenie laugh with disgust.

"You called me a halfling right?"

"He made that device to keep track of your other half?" Night caught on immediately but Dream is still far from getting answers.

"I was born with the seal but the Hearthians been dividing the seal to the others that met the requirements to be a seal bearer. They have to, as the royals of the Heart country have the thinnest blood of the Hearthians. They do not meet the requirement, hence no one in royalty had been born with the Heart Seal."

"Low level nobles like I do is born with the seal. I was supposed to be discarded if not for the greed of my father and the seal manifesting on my face. The royals could not discard me like what they did with others as the seal manifested during a ball hosted by the former emperor."

Night intervened to ask his question.

"The ones before you... They were ripped off of the seal and it was divided to the royals? Why not just transfer it to the one princess that will be presented to the emperor?" Night does not understand the human's logic.

"The royal princesses of the Heart country can only keep to just as much Hearthian blood they have in their veins. If they only have fifteen percent then they will only have fifteen percent of the heart seal."

"Hah!" Night scoffed at the royalties of the Heart Country. "How dare they! They blotched Heart's legacy!" Night is seething in anger as it thought it's old friend, the angel named Heart was disrespected by her descendants.

"I was lucky that this manifested for everyone to see however they still took half of the heart's power."

"And right now, that Lunaria or whatever her name is have the other half?!" Night is furious.
