I slowly opened my eyes, adjusting to the light present in the room, where am I? I browsed my surroundings. Oh, it's my room. I shut my eyes as the slight headache hit me. Then abruptly the whole incident came flashing in front of my scenery as tears came into my eyes once again. I must have fallen asleep while crying. I let out a sigh shutting my eyes close, trying not to cry more.

But the banging of the boor caught my attention, whos that? I moved out of my comfortable and warm bed, my paws coming in contact with the cold floor making me shiver in a comfortless sentiment. I made my way toward the door as I was getting nearer the muffled voices were taken notice of. I unlocked the door and Radha came dashing in followed by Gopi. Their complexion was pale as, breathing hard. She grabbed me by my bicep shaking me lightly.

Radha: what took you so long to open the door???

She let out, boring me with her glairs.

Me: I was sleeping. What happened? What's with the commotion?

I inquired as I saw guards running around the palace, handing me a false sensation in my gut.

Gopi: War is declared rayna! A rival country assailed us this afternoon.

My blood ran cold, my eyes widened at the unpleasant and unexpected news. This is so against the rule of the war! We cannot attack in darkness and during lunch how could they?? But suddenly a fact hit me tough.

Me: W-where are t-the kings?

My voice cracked due to anxiety and fear, as I tried hard not to stammer.

Radha: in the battleground. They left hours ago. Rivals attacked and destroyed all our borders and camps.

Me: But we were not at all prepared for the war!

I fight back.

Gopi: That's where their moto.

Me: No no no this can't be happening!

I left the room, stress and anxiety running through my blood. How will they gain a victory in the war if they are not prepared for it?? This is stupidity!

Radha: where are you going rayna???

They both follow up.

Me: They need me.

Radha: have you lost your mind???

She screamed and tried to hold me back but I shrugged it off.

Me: Yes, I have lost my mind!! They need me, Radha!

Gopi: this is foolishness rayna?? They will not be pleased to see their beloved queen get hurt!

Me: So do I!!

With that, I made my way towards the stable.

Me: YAMA!!!

I roared out loud, and with that, he (the horse) came running toward me, I tied my sword tight to my chest with a piece of cloth, I was about to climb him but halted when Min-ho came running in my direction and followed by Gopi and Radha. 

Min-ho: Q-queen? Where are you heading to?

He inquired, trying his best to use sign language to conserve with me.

Me: to the battleground.

I proclaimed, his eyes widening, he was not at all anticipating me to communicate in Korean.

Min-ho: you can't.

He held the leading rope of yama tight. Challenging me.

Min-ho: I vowed to my kings that I will protect you with my life queen. You are not leaving my sight.
