<~~ Outside the Kingdom of Melosh~~>

From the cabin their journey starts once more, seeking an aid from an old friend they go. With spirits high, from the news that the lumberjack tellst, Sebastian along with Penny upon the horse, hoisted its reins and strike down full force. Making the horse gallop all throughout their continuing course. Five days passed as they started their easternmost journey, with the first three days brought ought their plates naught, and with the fourth day giving them hope as the tender-hearted cabin owner gave them information and the possible location where and could their dearest Prince had set. Now, this day has once more brought bliss to Sebastian and Penny's countenance, as they saw a familiar figure rushing towards them vest. And as the distance between them draw to a close, Penny joyously affirmed that the man riding a horse towards them is their non other friend, Fredrick Porlock.  
"Sebastian, Penny!" The scarfed assassin immediately exclaimed with a huff and puff.
"Fred?!" The two exclaimed correspondingly as they un-hoisted their horse and went down.
And anon as Penny went down, she instantly noticed the golden mane white mare convoying behind Fredrick.
"Oh Lucia!" Penny cried out, hastily approaching as she then caressed the mare soon as she did.
The presence of their prince's horse along with their old friend gave a short relief to both Penny and Sebastian, but that relief was instantly replaced by fret as they have come to realised that their prince will and shall not allow himself to be separated with his treasured horse.
At once Penny, "Moran, no—Fred where is he!?" shrieked out as she stood beside Sebastian, in front of Fredrick.
"If I know for heaven's sake, then I would not be here all day, outside searching for your mischievous prince!" Fredrick complainingly retorted.
"Penny calm down first! And Fred I'm afraid I cannot read you, why—why are you searching for William and why is his horse with you in the first place?" Sebastian intervened, as he gazes at both Fredrick and Lucia behind his friend.
"Alright, why don't we clear and settle everything first?" Inquiring responded Fredrick, as he guides his horse towards a lake. Sebastian and Penny also did the same, with both the horse they have use to travel and Lucia. Allowing their horses to satiate their thirst, as they settle their matters first.
"Friends, I know you art confused, but best believe me when I say that I share the same confusion as well! Your prince, oh good grace, your prince! Oh right, his horse too is quite an headache! But ah—hold on, should not have begun with my complaints. . . Fine, now allow me to begin with this first instead, are you both on your way to Melosh?" Sebastian and Penny nodded in response.
"To ask for my help, correct? For you both cannot enter the Holmes' kingdom," added remark of Fredrick.
"Exactly Fred, the reason why I am confused, Penny perhaps too, is why are you searching for him, for William? When Penny and I have not even told you that our prince had been gone missing," remarked Sebastian.
"Well friends you have certainly missed out an entire act of the stage play! 'Tis not that long when I've just figured out that the foreign blonde haired, scarlet eyed man who's calling himself Liam, is actually your William, your hidden second prince! His possession of mine spare sword, the one I giveth you Moran, proved mine suspicion and guess certainly. And since then, after I became aware of such crucial information, it is clear to me that I ought to truly keep an eye on him. However, in just a few blinks of mine eyes, your prince had managed to enticed, mayhap unintentionally captured, and wins our regent prince's heart and right after that, he is now gone! Just recently disappeared from Melosh without his horse and a clear trace, with both Prince Sherlock Holmes and his former fiancé, Lady Irene Adler beseeching I to search for him, for they cannot personally do so, for our kingdom's long gone king has made return! And to make the matter more adverse, King Mycroft want Prince Sherlock and Lady Irene to be engage in wedlock sooner, when they have just cut off their betrothal ties, and when our regent prince only now having one desire, and that is to be together with your effete prince. Interesting, isn't it eh?"
