Queen from another world.

Chapter 7

A few days after the incident at the forest and got the markings from the crystal ball the stranger dropped. She kept it hidden under the sleeve of her shirt and kept working in the household like it never happened.

She went to the well to fetch some water from the well and saw soldiers ride into the courtyard with Yerdon. Arendea were very suprised to see him come to the manor and watched as Jerth went ouside and said to him.

"Your Majesty, what a suprise. what brings You to the Ashath estate?" Yerdon got down from his horse and looked at Jerth with a serious look on his face.

"I came to speak with Arendea its important..." Jerth turned to look at Arendea and signaled her to come over to them. She put the bucket down and went over to them and said to Yerdon with a calm expression on her face.

"Yerdon, What's going on?" Yerdon looked at her and said with a serious tone in his voice as Lord Ashath went to give them some privacy to talk in peace.

"I came to take You to the Castle." Arendea has a confused look on her face as She said to him. "What why?" Yerdon looked at Arendea and said to her with a concearned look in his eyes.

"I kept thinking about what that man nearly did to You a few days ago... And I think its best if You come to live with me in the Castle..." Arendea lookes at him with a bit of concearn and said.

"But You came just in time to save me from that man, and I cant just abandon my duties to the Ashath family..." Yerdon lookes at her and said with a serious look on his face.

"Arendea, that man that nearly killed You is one of the bandits that has been attacking people on the roads." Arendea has a suprised look on her face to hear this and said to him.

"What? How... How did You find out about that?" Yerdon lookes at her and said. "One of my men captured a bandit that knew the man, I was there when they interogated him."

Arendea thought about the man that nearly killed her and saw the look in his eyes when He saw the necklace around her neck. She looked at Yerdon and said with a concearned look on her face.

"You came here to take me to the Castle because You fear that the bandits might come here and take me?" Yerdon nooded his head and said as He placed his hand on her sholdur.

"Yes, Once that man finds out You're a servant for the Ashath family. He and his fellow bandits might come here and do harm to You as revenge for cutting his hand off."

Arendea lookes into his eyes and said with concearn in her voice. "What about Lord and Lady Ashath and everyone that works in the manor? What about my friend? We cant just leave and let them get attacked by the bandits!"

Yerdon lookes at her and said with a calm look on his face. "Ashath manor is being protected by the kingdome's best men and women. You dont have to worry, they be kept safe from harm..."

Arendea looked down at the ground and said with a thoughtful tone in her voice. "Before I go with You to the Castle, can I at least say goodbye to Deremira and the others?"

Yerdon gave her a nood and said before going to talk with Jerth. "Of course, take the time You need. I be talking with Lord Ashath while You do that..."

Arendea went into the manor and made her way to the library where Deremira sat reading a book. Deremira looked up from her book and said with a smile on her face.

"Hey Dea, did You finish your chores already? Do You want to..." Her smile quickly faded when She saw the look in Arendea's face and said to her. "Arendea, What's wrong?"

Arendea lookes at Deremira and said. "Yerdon is here... and He wants me to live with him to the Castle..." Deremira got up from the chair and said with a small smile on her face.

"That's great, but why arnt You happy about that?" Arendea sighed and said to her with a sad look in her eyes. "The reason is because its for my protection, Something happened when I viseted the Seasthi tribe and I nearly died..."

Deremira has a horrofied look on her face to hear this and said. "Arendea... Did something happen with the Seasthis? Did You make them angry or..." 

Arendea shakes her head and said. "No... I wanded a bit too far from their territory and ran into a bandit... Yerdon came just in time before things could get out of hand..."

She were silent for a few secounds before saying to Deremira. "I... I dont want to leave You here while I live in the Castle and..." Deremira gently grabbed Arendea's hand and said with a warm loving smile on her face.

"Dea, You dont have to worry about me. I want You to be safe and happy, I always support You no matter what." Arendea gave Deremira a small smile and said to her.

"You has always been a good friend ever since I came here many years ago..." Deremira lookes at her and said with a smile. "I still remember the first day You came to the manor, You were so anxious to be around people. But You slowly open up to Me and began to talk to other people."

Arendea smiled at the memory and said to her. "Comming here made me feel safe for the first time... Do I get to see You again?" Deremira lookes at her and said still smiling.

"We see each other again at the day of Your wedding, maby We see each other more after that?" Arendea gave her a smile and said to her. "I would like that..." Then they gave each other a hug and Arendea whisperd into her ear.

"I will miss being with You friend..." Deremira told her She miss her too and they let go of each other and Arendea went to bid the servants goodbye before going into her room.

She packed a few of her favorite books and made her way to the courtyard. Arendea walked down the steps and made her way over to Yerdon and the soldiers.

She looked at Jerth and gave him an apologetic look before getting on the horse with Yerdon. She then rode out of the courtyard with Yerdon and looked back at the only place that has been her home for a long time.

Yerdon sensed her sadness and gently held her hand to comfort her and gently sqeazed it. When they got to the Castle Yerdon helped Arendea down the horse and went inside with her.

He showed her room and said to her. "This will be Your room until the day of our wedding, call the servants if You need anything. I be always avaliable if You need to talk, Arendea."

Arendea gave him a smile and said with a small smile. "Thank You, Yerdon. But I think I'm gonna be alone for a bit if that's okay with You." Yerdon nooded his head and said to her.

"Of course, Dinner is in three hours if You want some." Arendea nooded her head and went into the room and closed the door and went to lay on the bed.

She looked out of the window and let out a small sigh before taking a one hour nap.
