You and Dion were seated in a nice room and served to some desserts and cups of tea. You two were cautious about the maids and everyone after the incident.

The male who called you two dismissed his servants as they walked out of the room and immediately started going on his knees full on crying.

"I ask for you forgiveness, your highness"He says
"Highness?"You ask
"You see the truth is you aren't the legitimate child at all you are a royal blood of this kingdom"He says

The male was almost begging for forgiveness with the way his hands almost reached your feet but Dion pushed his hands away with his blade threatening as you shook your head.

"I don't understand if I am not then Fischel?"You ask
"She is the legitimate child"The male says
"And how do i know that what your saying is true"You ask

The male walks off for a second then comes back with a huge book and starts flipping through the pictures you assumed is some sort of family pictures.

"Here, you have that birth mark behind your heart don't you?"He asks as you face Dion confused he checks it for you and nods.
"Only his majesty's child could receive such birthday marks"The male says

"It could just be a mark i got"You said
"No because such marks only serve a reason and that is 'the next on the throne'"The male says
"Why are you telling me this?"You ask

"Because that wench has taken me for granted, I have helped her become a queen yet she left me with nothing"The male complains
"And you think i would help you when you are one of the reasons my mother was poisoned and I was put on the streets?"You ask

The male gulps as he faces your anger. You stand up to walk away but came back to take a little muffin then walked out of the room.

"The audacity"You munched
"Slow down"Dion says as you face him and sighed

"I just don't know what I should be doing, I came here hoping i would find my parents but my mother is dead and I'm being told that I am the right heir it's too much"You said

"I don't want to do this"You added
"Miss"A maid calls
"Yes?"You replied
"I was told to hand this to you"The maid says

*****

My dear child, my favorite gift
and a blessing to me. From the moment
i laid my eyes on you, i knew it that
you were worth all the pain
I have gone through.

I have given you all of my blessings and mana in hopes that you will one day protect those
who have been wronged and put down.
You are the queen the one heir
to the throne.

A queen must protect her people like i did and our ancestors. I may have passed away by the time
this has been given to you but I want you to
know that I have never left your side.

I didn't want to see our home land corrupted
by the hands of a greedy woman
and that's how i lost you.

I will make sure to find you and if I am late
I will make sure to give you my last gift
to you i love you.

Your eyes teared up crying as you finished reading the letter. You wonder how the woman ended up as a queen and where was your father whom assumed you weren't his due to Fischel's mother.

You were stuck with options, you didn't want to start something you couldn't finish. You were walking through hallways as you found your way to a balcony.

"What will you do?"Dion asks
"Let's go back"You said

* * * * * *

Dion doesn't say anything as you two decided to leave despite the male earlier begging you and giving you eye contact for a help.

You were met with Fischel and Oz whom came to apologize instead of the queen who unprofessional you thought.
"What happened to his majesty"You asked

"His majesty is unable to speak or move his body so he is on his bed taken care of by the maids"Oz replies

"What happened to him?"You ask
"We don't know as no one would tell us"Fischel says
"I see"You replied.
"What's wrong with him?"Fischel says looking at Dion

"He is not much a person who speaks"You said
"Hmm"Fischel replied looking at you
"Thank you two for having us"You said

"You are always welcome to visit"Oz said
"Not when you have a hostile queen"You muttered quietly

From your first impressions you disliked the queen even if a woman had died you wouldn't have to attack them unless you are in the wrong.

"Are you sure?"Dion asks
"Yes, Roxanna is waiting for us"You replied
"Hey lady"A girl speaks
"Yes?"You replied facing a two kids.

"Can you help our mom?"the boy aaked
"What happened to her"You ask
"She is sick and we haven't had anything to eat"The girl says as Dion watched how you frowned following the kids.

You follow them through an alleyway and went through a small wall to find a small house with one bed but no one was on it.

You faced the kids as they both panicked frantically looking around for thier mother.

"She was just here"The girls says
"We are not here to play games kid"Dion says
"No we are not she was just here, she must have walked out"The girl says

* * * * * *

You followed the kids and found the woman walking out. You help her to get her into her little small house and get her to bed. You and Dion stood by as the woman looked around confused then at the kids.

"What happened to her?"You ask

"She has a sickness that makes her forget about what happens"The girl said
"How did it start?"You ask
"When she lost her job as the late queen's personal maid"the girl explains

That meant the woman used to work for you mother and somehow ended up with a dementia after that. She seemed to have gotten weak despite her being few years older than you.

Yet she was healthy so it was very strange for her to have demotion unless she was made this way for a reason.
"Strange"You thought

The woman's eyes fluttered open taking in her sights finding her two beloved kids then looked at you and immediately rubbed her eyes blinking.

"Your majesty is that you?"She asks he hands holding yours.
"No, i am afraid i am not"You replied

"Oh your highness Y/n it's you, you have grown up to look just like her majesty"The woman says as you all look at her.

"May i ask who you are"You ask
"I am Cathryn i used to work for her majesty"Cathryn replied

"It's a pleasure to meet do you mind telling me what happened"You asked
"I- i- i don't recall anything, my dear"Cathryn says as she hold her head in pain.

You find that she had her memories erased which made her forget more than she should. You bit your bottom lip frowning upon looking at the pained expression of the woman.

You placed your hands on her head as you recited spells to get rid of the mana.

"The pain, it's gone"Cathryn says as she looks at you
"You have gotten her blessings"she adds tears running down her checks

"I remember everything my dear but are you sure you want to know, your mother wanted you to live far away and safe"Cathryn says

"Yes, i want to know why my mother had to send me away"You said
"Farewell, i will tell you"Cathryn said.
