"Did you make sure this ship cannot sink, or be invaded by pirates, or ..." Claude de Alger Obelia demanded answers from the ship's captain, as the royal party was getting ready to head out towards the birth country of the Empress of the Obelia Empire.
"An Claude needs to mind his own business, an get abord or we WILL leave you behind!" commented Richard as he walked past the pair, with Athanasia on his hip. The toddler meanwhile was giggling her little head off as she waved 'Bye, Bye Daddy!' as the two boarded the ship.
Claude quickly fallowed after them, as the captain got down on his knees an started praising the beloved Empress and Princess for saving his life. Once beside his beloved spouse, he started scolding the man, "Richard, you should still be in the carriage! We haven't- "
"Haven't even check the ship for the 100th time. Claude dear, at your rate the war will be over before we even leave the port." Richard commented, as he headed down deck to their private cabin.
"Come on darling nap time~" cooed the yellow- purple eye man as he tucked the toddler into a small bed with bars all around it. Tucking the toddler in before kissing Athy's forehead, before moving away so Claude could also say goodnight to their child.
Soon after Athanasia was in a deep sleep, an the ship had also started to set sail. The couple left the cabin to head back up to the deck, were they would once again be using Richard's knowledge of the landscape to get to the Capital using the fastest root.
Meanwhile in the Westminster Palace, a few days later
"Your majesty, the Lancasters are already planning for war!"
"How did they build an army like this without us noticing?"
"I bet the Scots and French are involved with it! They never like you, King Edward!"
"Have we had any news on the arrival of the Obelia Empire forces?" Asked the kingmaker, Richard Neville standing beside the King of England. The council calm down a bit at the question, as one of the older men nodded his head saying their recent note said they would arrive in a couple of days.
Elizabeth Woodville who sat beside her husband, nodded her head before asking "That is good news, but how are they moving so fast? It dose seems suspicious." As she said the last part the seed of doubt was place in the court's minds, she hid a smile at that. Tearing the court down from the inside was one of her favorite pastimes, since it gave her family more power.
"It seems there using something called mana, or as we call it magic!" a voice from the crowd said, the crowd parted like a wave as George Plantagenet walked forward. The King raised his hand to silence the crowd, before saying "George how do you know of this?"
The man staired at his older brother for a few moments before waving a handful of servants over, each one carry a stack of books. Books that Edward recognized from their late Father's private library.
"I found these books containing information about the Obelia Empire from these books found in our late Father's study!" George commented as he past a book to the King, who opened it up and started reading the text.
As Edward read the text, he learned that Mana or magic was commonalty used not just by commoners, but nobles and their royal family as well. It was because of their Mana the royal family was easily recognized by their jeweled blue eyes!
"Their eyes are jewels? That is imposable, that can be true!"
"Well it's written right heard, an many of us knew the late Lord Richard would never have kept this books if this was not true!"
"The late Duke of York most have learned that this was true!"
"Maybe he was going to join an allenes with this Empire? It would have so much help in the pervious wars."
As the council started once again arguing among themselves, a figure dressed in all black holding a cross in between her hands trembled in fear and horror. It was Cecily Neville, the great aunt of the the current Earl of Salisbury and the King's mother.
'My beloved husband ... the devil's hold was truly on you. Witchcraft is the devil's work! Their no allies to my sons, but their downfall. Like my beloved Richard, who's down fall that came crawling out of me and he named after himself!' thought the old woman before she started making her way down the hallways of the palace, heading to the one place were she could prey for their souls.
As well ask God to smit the evil of those Obelias and destroy house Lancaster, once an for all!
