"Royal Notice: Greetings. Lady Jeong Hui the respectable daughter of Kim Wang So and late Lady is invited to join in the celebration of the ritual of Sangdalgosa" brother Jung read from the scroll he was holding earlier
"Sandal..?"
"Sangdalgosa. It's a ritual performed to the House God's" Yuri said admiring how beautiful the royal scroll is "we never received the royal scroll" she added still lost in it
I clearly wasn't interested in this as my mind kept drifting away to what will happen later
Brother Jung, Yuri and I are going to the main Kingdom to celebrate. Off course that's not I'm eagerly waiting for. My mind was clearly stuck in the thoughts of Prince Kim Taehyung.
Will I meet him?
"When will you return my dear?" Lady Hui's father broke my thoughts
"I-?"
"We'll be back by tomorrow dawn your highness" Brother Jung bowed
"Alright then please take care" He said leaving as Yuri bowed too
We took two horses since I'm not so good at it. I mean, I clearly don't know how to ride. Brother Jung followed us from behind. Yuri and I took the other horse. It was really fun to ride along with Yuri. We were talking about the foods we ate earlier, some places nearby, some other festivals and rituals, and more.
General brother followed us silently observing if someone is following us or something. Lady Hui's father told us to take some more soldiers but I declined. I don't want peoples attention so brother Jung is completely armed. I wonder how well he can twist the sword. Definitely not perfecter than Prince Taehyung. Heheh. Im gonna meet him soon.
We passed the woods as the chill breeze and muddy smell played in my nostrils. The sound of the birds chirping and the animals echoing made me feel refreshed. And after few hours of long ride, we entered the main kingdom's market, which made my jaw drop.
There are lot of people here.
And they are all looking at us...
We slowed down as we passed through the shops. The people there bowed at us, some even murmured that i tried to commit suicide and some were shocked to see us.
It feels weird to be noticed
"Why is.. everyone staring at us Yuri?" I whispered in her ears
"Only those who are in the high positions can afford horses My Lady" she mumbled in response with a slight chuckle
I didn't wanted anyones attention. I literally face palmed multiple times in my mind
After a few good minutes of awkwardness, we crossed the market and were walking near the huge, mouth dropping and the grandest castle.
DAMN.
"Yuri stop" i said looking near the tree before us in shaky voice. Is that a person..
Brother Jung too stopped next to us when Yuri stopped the horse near a tree beside us.
"What is wrong Lady Hui?" Brother asked worriedly
"My...h..head... ahh" I spoke pressing my temple
"What's wrong Lady Hui" brother Jung asked with a hitch in his voice as he got down and helped me down the horse
"Lady Hui please drink some water" Yuri also got down from the horse and gave me some water from a clay jar
I drank the water but it didn't seem to help. The weight in my chest grew heavier and made it difficult to breathe
I can feel brother Jung and Yuri rubbing my palm and foot but it couldn't help me either
I closed my eyes tight hoping the pain would go away but no. Suddenly everything around me went still and silent. I couldn't hear anything or anyone except a group of horses suddenly reining in front of us
I slowly tried to open my eyes fluttering as everything seemed so blur. I saw a tall figure running towards my direction as the lump in my chest grew big
"Queen Heo Jong"
The same voice which I didn't know where it came from started ringing inside my head repeating the same phrase making every other sound to shut
Who are you..?
"Your fate"
A sudden force pulled me towards it. And by the familiar smell, I'd recognise him anywhere.
