As the days past and their love became more known to the people and to themselves. Something arouse… this ‘something’ was hidden in the darkness, an Evil presence waiting for its moment to strike. No doubt waiting for Castalia and or Dexter to be at their weakest. Dexter didn’t notice it but Castalia… she started getting nightmares. Horrible nightmares that kept her up for days on end.
“you look tired… are you ok?” dexter said while walking with Castalia
“ummm…. I’m ok…” Castalia said looking away
“you sure you don’t seem yourself lately, just different.”
“… I could never hide anything from you, can i?”
“I hope you don’t, so what’s up?”
“well I’ve been having nightmares…” she prepared for a pounding of worried words.
“nightmares huh… so you havn’t been sleeping?” he said holding back the worry
“kinda…” again she looked away
“lies! Awe man!”
“I didn’t want to tell you because I knew you would worry!”
“I love you! so of course I would worry!”
“it’s nothing… I think it will go away…”
“if it hasn’t yet then its not going away soon… I’mma do something about it…”
“what?” she said because she tried everything…
“Just try and get a good night sleep tonight ok” dexter smiled and hugged her.
They went on with their day happily and ended the day saying goodbye to each other. Dexter dropped her off back home then he went to a peaceful place and meditated. Again he was in front of the great gates.
“Dexter! Your back! He’s waiting for you, head on in!” the man opened the door.
Dexter ran up to the castle. Finally he reached it. Right before he was about to knock the door opened. A man stood there and greeted him.
“Hey! You’re the guy who shielded me the other time I was here!”
“yes I was He, for if I didn’t you wouldn’t be here today.”
“ok…. Well I gotta speak to him again because.”
“come” the man interrupted.
For some reason Dexter didn’t question it. he just followed him through the beautiful castle. They walked through and around countless doors and turns. Dexter got lost in where they were. Finally he opened a door and there was an old man in a robe reading a book by a fire place. The man guided him in hen gestured Dexter to have a set beside the man. Dexter walked over quietly and sat down.
“I’ve been expecting you.” the man said behind his book
“and who are you?” Dexter said
“my apologies, I’m with the king. You can say we are one” the man smiled and laughed. He put down his book. “you are here because Castalia is having nightmares, am I wrong?”
