The Lore

The Lore Chapter 6

Roland finds himself wandering the halls to- whatever he was doing, jeez he forgot why he was even traveling around or where he was going, so halfway he just wandered hoping he would remember but his mind was blank and too clouded with conflicting thoughts (Maybe I should've just stayed at the dinner table, and made up some kind of excuse to remain there so I could've studied Kevin more. Maybe it was just a misunderstanding? The maid said they may be dating and that they're just rumors. And rumors are exactly that; rumors. Plus it was Kevin's night! The person he cares about a lot in his heart. Maybe I should apologize for last night-) the sound of footsteps caught Roland's attention and when he turned the corner he saw Kevin! "Hey, Kevin!" Roland said swiftly walking towards him as Kevin still walked towards him straight ahead, Roland stopped a little halfway when he got close to Kevin with a bright smile "Hey, so I wanted to apologize-" and paused when Kevin didn't stop as he pushed pass nudging his shoulder making Roland freeze and dumbfounded when he gained consciousness again he turned to look back and saw Kevin never looked back and could probably imagine he still had his stoic face on as if he were no one of importance to him...

Kevin's POV:

Kevin was too disorganized in his mind and thought too highly of Lang as if he had the audacity to actually act as if nothing happened last night! Making Kevin furious towards him which blinded his path. Granted he knew exactly where he was going because he heard the last commotion occurring that included Odom at the training hall where there was a loud clash because the armor or swords fell. He forgot what happened but he just needed a distraction to not face his problems right now. This is exactly what he did, he hunted down and kept his bearing on patrol but not actually thinking in his right mind so when he stormed through the halls, his anger blinded him to what came upon his path, passing a specific individual who he probably just shattered.

Back to Roland's POV:

(Did... D-Did he just ignore me? Oh no! I upset him! No no no! Ughhhh! Great, this is all a big giant mess! So long dreams to be with Kevin and have a little house and three kids and a little hamster named...) Roland featured forward to just adventuring as if an abandoned child in unknown territory, even if he did actually know every crook and cranny of the place, including secret passageways. 'I need to be alone' thought Roland. He ducked behind a painting of a tunnel and entered a real tunnel that led to a secluded part of the palace gardens that he had personalized. The short dark green trees with small baby blue flowers and the mini waterfall to the side always seemed to calm to him whenever his late mother had a seizure or whenever his parents fought. Roland finally crawled out of the tunnel into the garden from behind the waterfall. Roland sat down in the lush green grass, curled up into a ball, and cried.
