It's Reyna's birthday! :) She turns 22 here.

I saw a mistake that I've written before, but Weylyn is supposed to be older than Reyna. it says the coronation to be a King happens when he has turned 21, but he'll be turning 25 when the coronation should take place (it does not happen in this book because the book ends before the coronation would take place.). So if you remember the small detail of 21 years, ignore it!

Other than that, enjoy! x)

"Be safe and come back as quick as you can," I kiss Ascian's lips

"Be safe and come back as quick as you can," I kiss Ascian's lips.

"Of course, I'll be back before the others have arrived." He smiles and leaves through the cabin door. His figure can be seen through the living room window when he walks past it.

The day is here, 7th of April. My birthday.

I've invited Calian and Dorian since they've grown quite a lot on me, and they're friends with me and Ascian. And then Weylyn. I debated on inviting Kace but with him being so carefully watched and having that small sliver of fear – fear of him telling on my hiding place since he has given his word to the kingdom - I'd be an enemy, and he would have to tell the leader about my whereabouts.

So, I didn't take that chance, and rather kept the invite to myself in my heart. Ascian had to be the one to send the invitation to Weylyn without it getting shown to anyone else. Somehow he did it, and only Weylyn got the message.

It's not more than 10 o'clock in the morning. I'm getting ready for the evening, cleaning up the cabin to use some time before I have to do a small clean-up on myself.

The others will arrive around five in the evening. It won't be pitch black then, but it'll be a little more cozy with the sun being a bit lower and not shining in our eyes. The big mountains that Lacuna rests on will hide the sun, making it darker on the side Lacuna and Asteria are located at.

I clean throughout the day and finish up some food and snacks we can eat while celebrating a day I really don't feel as excited for. Especially not now when not all of my family is here with me... I'd love Kace to be here. But for me and his sake, it can't happen.

When the clock chimes at 3 o'clock I decide to start on myself, getting out the cozy dress I decided on for this day. It's not the fanciest dress, and it really isn't a dress either, but it'll be nice enough to have while it stays comfortable.

I have a loose white undershirt, which gets topped off with a black corset that ends around my waist. A dark blue skirt with hints of white falls down from under the corset and down my waist to around my ankles. The necklace I got from Ascian is draped over my neck and it rests between my collarbones.

I keep my hair down but decide to run through it with a brush once. That takes away the worst knots, and I push my hair behind my shoulders to keep it somewhat away from my face. But small pieces escape and rest around my chin.
