Raised by the Ocean (book 1 in Raised by the ocean series)

Chapter 7

The next morning, I woke up to Belelia packing her stuff and getting ready to leave. I got out of my bed and said "are you leaving so soon? I thought we would be staying awhile." "Amithradith, I was thinking of leaving on my own without anyone to mess with me." She replied. "Why would you do that? Is it because of the banquet and me making you dance with Gwamyr?" I asked. "Fine, yes. I thought that you were actually trying to pair me up with him." "It was just for fun. I did not think you would take it so seriously. I'm sorry. I won't do that ever again unless if i know that your in a playful mood. can we continue to adventure with each other to defeat the evil king?" I apologized. "All right i'll admit it Amithradith last night was fun. If we want to still defeat the evil king we must go now though." Just then, that same boy burst in and said "My Ladies, My king requests your presence in the throne room." "Just a minute. We will be right there." Belelia replied as he left us.

A few minutes later we entered the throne room and noticed that Gwamyr was like before, sitting on his throne. When he saw us he got up and showed us to a different room filled with books, maps and battle plans. "Why would you meet us here Gwamyr?" I asked. "I wanted you here because i need to ask you where are you going?" He replied. I answered. "We are going to my kindred in Lothwood so I can find out when I am going to the undying lands." "Ah. I guess that explains why you have pointy ears and blonde hair. Your an elf. But then why is your friend travelling with you?" He questioned. "I asked her to come with me to the undying lands. I'm not sure if as soon as get there, I'll be going." I answered. "I would like to help you in your journey." He requested. "That would be great but what would you give us?" Belelia demanded. "I would like to come with you. I could be of use to you. I know how to fight and i am incredibly smart. Will you let me help you?" Gwamyr proposed. "Why? You have a kingdom to run here?" I stated. "I did not want to become the ruler here, but I am the only child of my father and was sent here regardless of what I asked. And when i'm out, Gwaddyn is in charge here." "I guess we could have room for one more what say you Amithradith?" Belelia Challenged. "Alright Belelia. Why not?" I tuned to Gwamyr. "Your in, but are you sure you want this?" I appealed to him. " I am 100% sure I want this." He commented. And with that, we all left to pack.
