As I walked down the streets with Zeref-san we were given a very warm welcome by his people. I was surprised that his people are so lively. As we walked through the doors of the castle we were greeted by Invel one of the Spriggan 12.

"Welcome home your majesty, a pleasure" I clung onto Zeref-san's cloak, he's noticed me but hasn't said anything. That makes me nervous. 

"Good to see you to Invel, I realise this is sudden but could you assemble the twelve" Zeref-san greets him back, his aura makes me a tad scared. 

"That will take time, if only I could predict the haphazard arrival of springs first breeze I could have already had them assembled here" what a great use of imagery, I sweat dropped. Zeref-san chuckled. 

"So, I'm as capricious as the wind am I" two figures began walking in our direction, one of them spoke. A woman's voice. 

"Gale force or a dark cloud, no more like a thunderstorm of death. But a spring breeze that doesn't begin to capture the gravity" a woman who I recognised as Dimaria Yesta stated as she came to a halt in the light. The one with her spoke. 

"He's like a desert, that's what I'd say. A sandstorm bringing death far and wide over the land" his name is Ajeel Raml. Zeref-san greeted them. 

"Dimaria, Ajeel what colourful imagery", Invel scolded them. 

"Have you two no manners, how dare you speak to his majesty this way". Zeref-san said that he appreciated their candid. Then another man walked in he looked much older, he held a wooden staff. If it wasn't for the extra training we did for my presense sensing I would've been choking on the ground, that's a certainty.

"Am I to take it your travels have ended your majesty" he said as he approached us. 

"You seem to be in very good spirits my lord", Zeref-san turned around to look at him then back at me, when he did the three who were now behind him were now staring at me. 

"Suppose I am" Zeref-san said as he turned to face the old man. They had a short talk about Ragnarok or as people in Ishgar called it the Dragon King Festival.After a cheer from Ajeel, Invel had asked the question that was most likely on everyone's mind. 

"If I may your majesty, who is the child next to you?" Invel inquired, Zeref-san turned back to look at him. Everyone else in the room looking at him for answers. "This is Luke Heartfilia, a child I saved whilst I was in my weakened state. He isn't effected by my curse so he joined me on my travels, he will be very useful here so I've decided to bring him with me." Zeref-san explained. 

"Ummm, it's very nice to meet you all" I gave a slight bow, they're all kinda scary. Then another man came into the room, he was walking with a bird shape cane that was taller than him. 

"Your majesty, I am truly delighted to see you have returned home from your long journey safe and sound, no heavens!" he backed up.

"There's no reason for worry ( word I don't know how to spell ) has been rather charitable these past few years," Zeref-san eases the man, I look behind the old man to see Fairy Tail's master.Why was he here? Well I heard that he disbanded Fairy Tail, that really hurt my sister so I'm not his biggest fan at the moment. Zeref-san patted my head as he listened to him, which came as a slight shock to many in the room especially the guild master in front of us. I guess it's because I bear great resmeblance to Lucy.

"Good to hear my lord, but I find it best to exercise proper caution in the presence of such greatness. I believe you may be aware an emissary all the way from the continent of Ishgar arrived while you were away," what a strange old man, so cautious yet so very loyal and praising Zeref-san seems to be his second nature. Zeref-san nods, hands still on my head. I don't know why but after the talk with Acnologia he picked up this habit.
