"Lux! Can you fetch up the letters?" Asked Hope. "I'm a bit busy here."

"Yes miss Hope!" Lux dropped her crayons, she just finished drawing Hope, her and...

"Wow, you're talented despite being 7 years old." Nightmare chuckles. "Get up, your caretaker ask you to take out the letters from the mailbox."

"Hehe, thank you!" Lux get up from the floor, she took a chair to open the door.

As she goes outside, she called out for a bird to help her get the letters since she can't reach the mailbox. 

Animals are quite fond of Lux, she can understands them. 

"Let see... Bills, work recommendation and newspaper." Muttered Lux. "Well, there's nothing else, let's go back uncle—"

"Uhm, excuse me?" A blond man appeared in front of the house.

He's wearing a crown, Lux knows him. She saw him in news before, the king of light. The kingdom is pretty far away where Hope and her lives.

Lux don't know why the King is here, as far she know this house is hidden away in the magical forest.

"Ah... Sorry.." the king let out a faint smile. "It must been a quite shock for you..." 

"... ..." Lux got nervous, she accidentally dropped the letters and ran back inside the house. "MISS HOPE HELP!!!"

"What—" Hope was quick to react and take out her magic sword. "Who—!!..." Chara gasped as she look at the king, Lux already went behind Hope. "... ... Greeting, your majesty." She bowed down.

"No need to bow, Chara. You know that." The king invited himself in. "I see she grew up very well... I guess you didn't tell her about me."

"Why should I? You don't even want to be in her life." Hope frowns. "Your majesty, please just go back. As this lowly servant of yours, please don't in our life anymore." 

"... ..." He sighed. "Let's not talk it when she's in this room."
