The palaces gate was closed. The horses hooves still to be heard from the inside of it while the knights and trainees were headed their usual way.

Asher leading the way, right behind him the trainees followed quietly, then the supplies carriage led by two guards.

Ezra was at the very end. Luckily no one noticed who was riding behind his back, since he joined in at the very last moment.

"I will show you the way, it is an empty street but be careful"

The dark haired knight said.

Not long after that, they were able to see the marketplace and so Louis jumped off.

"We will come get you after the training"

Ezra then added while showing him the way.

"Thank you"

The second prince said while walking away.

Ezra smiled then went on his way as well.

By the time he joined in, everyone was in their position.

"Why did you fall behind?"

Asher asked.

"It's a secret"

Ezra smiled replying, walking towards the other knight.

"Keep your eyes open, let's go"

Asher then said before walking away.

The glares of some villagers would almost make a hole through their bodies.

Even though most of them had so much respect for both Asher and Ezra and for a long time but they were getting sick of it.

Every single time they put their hopes into the new generation of trainees, they grow up to be the men who kidnap their daughters and burn their homes.

Asher knew that the six men he has been training are going to change the kingdom into the better.

They were very competitive, and only reminded him of a bunch of youngsters he once was a part of.

He wanted to protect them all.

A few miles away from the loud crowded marketplace. 

There was a small house, set in an empty, calm street. There were other houses near it but most of them belonged to old people who would spend their lonely days reading, knitting the cutest thing for their grandchildren.

The beautiful, red haired girl had her pink apron on top of the light blue dress. 

The dead garden she once took care of was almost fully dead. It did hurt to watch and so she was trying her best to fix it.

Aylin did learn a lot for the little prince and wanted to use that knowledge for good, hoping one day it would look better than ever.

Leaning down while getting rid of all the weeds, she saw two little dandelions in the corner.

And she could not believe that the little beautiful flowers were considered weeds.

"I will let them be"

She said before she stood up again. A familiar footsteps sounds was approaching their house.

Through those dead sunflowers and long gone roses, the prince's eyes met hers.

"Aylin!"

His face brightened up as he rushed towards the entrance.

"Louis, what are you doing here?"
