Once the punishment had been declared, the whole room went in chaos, for that was the first time that Obsidia had ever offered such punishment, it was unusual for everyone especially the king. Normally, he would have given them hard labour for two weeks.
Helis POV
'I think right now...it would have been better if we were all executed' I said in shock, why would the king cast us down to Earth???!!!Its not as if our crime was that grave, this is pure injustice and am going to tell that to his old looking face, but before I could even speak a word, a middle aged woman ran in front of us and suddenly got on her knees.
'please..please our King, please don't cast them down to Earth!' she pleaded to him, 'mum, what are you doing?' Indicia asked in surprise, 'don't punish them, punish me instead, take me in as your slave, do anything you want with me but please let my children go!' she continued to plead as tears ran down her cheeks.
As if on instict, we all ran towards our mother and helpes her up, 'mum stop it' Zeth told her but she ignored us and quickly went back on her knees, 'you can't do this to them, they are only children, your majesty!!' she exclaimed in a loud tone but this actually had no single effect on the large man sitting on the throne.
'You can't change what the King has decided on and you know that very well, Lady Katherine' Odysseus said with a smirk clearly shown on his face, 'They are my children!!' our mother yelled at him in anger.
Odysseus gave a small chuckle, 'you and I both know that they aren't your flesh and blood' he stated, as a matter of fact, 'how dare you say that?' mum replied in a slow venomous tone, 'That's the end!' king Zahol commanded.
The king closed his eyes for a second before opening them again, 'I have made my declaration and you are going to have to deal with it, Lady Katherine' he simply said before standing up from his throne and walking out of the hall.
The Grand hall that had been once crowded with annoying noble men and women had now dispersed which leaves us, mother and the guard that was to escourt us back to our home and keep guard until we were finally cast down.
'mum you should stand up' Oneida said as she helped mother up from the ground, 'its gonna be okay mother, dont worry about us' I reassured her but she only gave us a sad glare in response, 'why do you children keep giving your mother a headache?' she asked while breaking into tears.
Indicia and Oneida hugged her in comfort while us boys kept looking at our mother's devastated form, 'come on mum, let's go back home' Zeth simply said and began walking off towards the entrance of the golden castle while we followed with the guard behind us.
Oneida POV
We finally got to the comfortable house that we 've missed for almost three days.
The guard that followed us stood outside while we entered inside.'Home sweet home!' Helis exclaimed in happiness as he collapsed on the soft carpet, Zeth went straight into the kitchen and prepared himself some meal.
'Not for long' I said with a hint of sadness clear in my tone, everything seems so unreal right now, being cast down to a complete strange world its not something that i would have thought about in a thousand years.
If only our father had made an effort to talk to the king, then we wouldnt have been in this situation, he was part of the Royal council, of course the king would have listened to him.
'I seriously detest that creepy short man' we heard Helis mutter in hate, 'you are talking about Odysseus?' Indicia asked from where she was sitted on the sofa, 'I don't even want to hear his stinky name' he continued, 'a name doesn't smell..genius' Zeth had stated as he approached where we were all gathered at.
