Five days later

As the preparation of the marriage was progressing, the king and his Ministers and other important noble men were gathered at the throne room, two days before the marriage as the king arranged a bouquet which he invited most noble people within the palace, including the queen and the princes, with the purpose of announcing the merging of their kingdom together with Swendel and also making Gulf the king after that.

The king's and the Ministers arrived at the throne room to discuss about the marriage of merging their kingdom together with Swendel as the marriage with be in the next two days. As the banquet progressed the head diviner of their kingdom arrived a few minutes late after the opening of the ceremony, erupting whispers from the audience invited, due to the way he burst into the hall forcing the huge golden doors open causing them to slam against the wall.

He graced into the hall slowly and with taunting steps.

"What is the meaning of this!"

"Your majesty!"

"I have some things to say...and that involves everybody hearing"

"Which is?...that does not give you the right to make such an entry" the king asked a bit irritated about how he arrogantly approached to him and also disrupting the celebration, but because he's the head seer of their kingdom and also power that can dethrone a king, which makes the people believe and respect him more than the king. He has to control his anger.

"Your majesty....I had a vision of what is to come..and it doesn't look good"

The king due to fear fidgeted on his throne seat"what is to come"

"It's about the kingdom and prince Tine"

"Prince Tine, what about him" the king asked confused. Time at the mention of his name felt uncomfortable as fear gripped him where he was sitting.

"I will start with the good part, your majesty your plans of the kingdom will be successful but won't go as you planned...because of prince Tine!" He shouted at the end of his statement pointing at Time sitting next to his brother.

"What are you talking about!" The Queen screamed and at that her mind was hinting that probably the deer knows about Tine's pregnancy.

The people invited to the banquet began murmuring with each other confused as to what's happening.

"Silence!" The king roared at them, the whispers minimizing.

"Your majesty, I did like to ask Prince Tine some questions if you may" the king nodded as approval. The seer walked to where Tine was smirking in his head as he saw fear in Tine's eyes and hands trembling as he approached and that was convincing enough for the seer that all his daughter said was true.

"Your highness are you or are you not pregnant!" He said out loud so everyone could hear him which erupted loud murmurs among the people.

"What...do you mean, what is the meaning of this" the Queen burst out shocked at the question.

Tine was tongue tied and shocked, he never knew this day would come sooner, the day when everyone would know about him being pregnant. Unable to answer the question, the seer asked again but the king interrupted him.

"Even if he's pregnant, there is no problem as long as it's who I have in mind" he said as his memories flashed back to when Tine and Mew were hanging around.

"Who your majesty" the seer questioned immediately eager to let the truth out.

"Well prince Mew of course and that's even better they are to be married soon" the king answered assured but was proved wrong by how the seer laughed at his statement.
