[Hint : The Emperor and the crisis in the west!] ▶ Emily's screen gave a soft pink glow as it displayed the notification. Side quest? And the Emperor was related?

After securing Lady Celestine's vow to become his teacher, the little prince was resting in his room when he saw the notification bar chime in.

"Is it necessary for me to do it?" Hayes asked a little reluctantly, he had been in this world for a really short time and a side quest felt like an overwhelming chore.

◀ It is indeed important for you to complete this side quest, because this will unlock your parents' past and I'll be tell you what exactly had happened to them; and why did this unfortunate marriage take place.

Also, tackling the crisis in the west will give us an upper hand in this mysterious war with a villain still shrouded in mystery. ▶

"Oh my, what a pain." The lilac eyed child sighed, shaking his head with a gentle smile. "What is the problem in the west?"

◀ It's the mermaids and sirens. They have made trade via air and water in the surrounding areas connecting the west duchy impossible due to extremely bad weather and mighty tides. It's also expected that a tsunami might hit them in two months or so.

The motto behind this is unknown; almost non-existential but something did cause them to act so violently. There have also been sightings of dead sailors bodies, half eaten by sirens and perhaps even mermaids.

Helping these creatures of the deep sea will help the Emperor find the object of his heart. But you, dear reader need to find out what your father is trying to find, and then help them do so.

In the original novel, the Emperor never focused on the crisis in the west as it opened old wounds and traumas that he couldn't and didn't want to face; but things are very different now, and thus, we must seize the opportunity and make it ours. ▶

Hayes pondered upon the information he had been provided, what he knew of mermaids and sirens, these creatures sounded a little different. Yes, merfolks and sirens often sang in beautiful voices and lured the unfortunate to their watery graves, yet, he had never heard of these creatures controlling the weather or even the tides.

But then again, this was a high fantasy world, things like sea currents could be controlled by various factors and only the moon, or whatever they called the substitute of the moon in this world.

Or maybe, back even in his world, merefolks and sirens did control the weather, but due to lack of evidence it was never recorded; as every other encounter with such creatures did happen on a bad weather at the sea.
