General Douglas, Sir George, and the rest of the knights were checking their supplies. Percy showed up with his and Dalia's luggage. He gave it to the two dwarves, who placed it in their carriage.
"Sir Richard. What more do we have on our journey?" Sir George asked.
Sir Richard is a knight with the rank of captain. He became the best swordsman in the Fiafyr army once Sir Mathew left the kingdom with his wife. The only other knight that could challenge him was Lady Nelumbo. But she took the position of the Queen's personal knight and bodyguard after she gave birth to her son.
Sir Richard is a human male who has brown hair, grey eyes, a scar across his left eye, and a large muscular build.
"We have a 2-day journey by horse to get to Eldermyst City and a 2-day journey from there to the next town within the Maldurian Domain."
"We're stopping at the town of Lomar? Why not continue the rest of the way to the Capital city?" asked Percy with confusion.
"We are stopping there because His Majesty would like us to meet with the Queen," Sir Richard explained.
"Huh? Why is the Queen meeting with us at Lomar?" Percy asked.
"She will be taking a small entourage of soldiers with her to... Greet Lady Rya. She wants to ensure she's not a threat to the kingdom. But I think she's more concerned about her son... It's probably going to be another interrogation for Lady Rya," Sir Richard sighed.
"Interrogation? Are they going to torture her?" Percy asked, fearing the worst.
"No!? She's going to meet her in person. And since the General was the first step, she's the second. If we show up in the capital with a dark elf. Then there might be a panic, and who knows which nobles will want to start a war over a dark elf. But if we can prove that she's not a threat and that the goddess herself has spoken to her. Well, the people will have no choice but to accept her," Sir Richard explained.
"How will the Queen prove her innocence?" Percy asked.
"That's only a question she can answer," Sir Richard said.
"Should we inform Lady Rya?" Percy asked George.
"I'll tell her and His Highness when we are about to depart," Sir George said.
"I still can't believe that I got to witness a dark elf. They're far more pleasant than I was told. Maybe there's a misunderstanding about their kind," Sir Richard said.
"Yeah... It makes me wonder why everyone believes that they're evil. When the only ones I've met have been nothing but nice," Percy said, thinking of the times he's spent with Rya. She was the one to help him fall in love with Dalia. And he was forever grateful. Even though he's been getting restless nights over this past month, but he kinda liked it. It reminded him of his mother's training back when he was a kid. His mother always told him that this type of training would help him become stronger and protect himself and the prince.
"Yeah... Queen Rianna isn't going to know what hit her," Sir George laughed.
"What do you mean?" Percy asked.
"Percy... You seen how Lady Rya turns someone who is hostile towards her, and then they're friends with her. Just like what happened to Lady Tayna," Sir George said.
Percy nodded.
"Yeah. I thought it was going to get ugly yesterday. And when Lady Rya offered me to join them for their tea party. I noticed how Lady Tayna wasn't pleased at all, and I didn't want anything to do with that," Percy said.
"Then, at dinner, it was like that girl was a whole new person. She was chatting away with Lady Rya as if they were always friends," Sir George said.
"She really is something. It's like she has a natural charisma," Percy said while nodding.
