The Palace...

"Father?" A cautious voice broke the silence of the night. "Come in," a stern voice from behind the large doors spoke.

The door creaked as if was pushed opened only to reveal a young girl who bowed her head apologetically at the man sitting on the throne.

"It is late. Why are you still up?" The man spoke with concern.

"I had a dream, father. And I believe that it is another vision," the girl spoke. Her father furrowed his brows as he motioned the younger to come closer.

The girl let out a deep breath before obeying, she sat on the chair next to her father before lowering her head.

"Do tell me. Do tell me what it was that you saw."

As the young girl started elaborating her visions, her father could only nod and listen as he waited for her to finish before reacting.

Once she was done, he only shook his head while chuckling as he gently patted his daughter's head, "I don't think that that was a vision. It seems more like a dream, my child. A bad dream to be exact."

"But father.. I don't think so. I mean, I rarely have bad dreams. And whenever I do, a few days after.. it happens," the young girl stated.

"Yangmi, your dream is too.. hard to believe. Do you really think that strange creatures or monsters would really just come and attack? The only monsters we know, are people as well. Criminals." Her father explained. Yangmi bit her lip as she stared up at her father. "Then, what about those people in my dream who got into accidents and died in.. a very unnatural way?"

"Maybe there will be a disease to spread out and might be harmful and cause death. I would talk to the council tomorrow about that, to check on the health of our citizens and whatever might cause diseases to emerge. Alright? Be reassured, my daughter," her father smiled before patting her head again. "Now, go head back to bed and rest. Alright?"
