The gentle morning breeze enters my bedroom through the open balcony door. I moved onto my side so that I could stare out at the sea through the open balcony door. The sky is a soft blue without any clouds. The Mystic Sea is a bright emerald green with a tint of sea foam green. The calmness of the Sea is a good omen for todays events. 

The warm breeze crept through the open door and hit against my bare chest. I swung my legs out of bed and sighed as my feet met the plush rug. I walked toward my pprivate bath to freshen up for the day. I walked to a small set of white double doors and pushed them open revealing my private bath. 

The walls are painted a soft gold with turquoise and emerald tiles lining the midsection  of the walls to the bottom of the walls. The ceiling arches into a curve and swirls of pale blue decorate the ceiling. A large rectangular bath is built into the reddish brown and tan floor. A circle top created out of gold and turquoise tiles is built into the wall. A gold painted wolf is in the center of the circle top, steaming water is flowing out of the wolfs mouth. 

I walked to the edge of the bath before slowly stepping into the hot water. As I sunk into the water small swirls of steam floated above the water. I am glad that I choose not to wear clothing in the evening, since it makes my morning bath quicker. I grabbed a lemon and mint soap and began to rub it against my body. I lowered myself into the hot water to rinse the clear bubbles from my body. 

I sighed happily as I enjoyed the comfort and heat the bath water provided. This mornings bath is truly needed to calm my nerves for the events that will occur today. Once the water began to cool I stepped out of the bath and walked toward the small wooden towel rack.  I could feel water droplets cascaded down my muscular body as I walked. Once I reached the towel rack I grabbed a towel and wrapped it around my waist. Once the towel was secure around my waist I walked back to my bedroom.

I am standing in my bedroom in black trousers and black leather boots. I walked to the purple and green lounge chair. I grabbed the emerald sleepless shirt that I threw on the lounge chair. I quickly put on my shirt, and then closed the balcony door. I made my way out of my bedroom to search for Mother and Elycia. 

After I meet with Mother and Elycia  I am heading to the Old Forrest to finally meet my bride.I have to get my bride's gown before meeting Father in the Old Forrest. As I searched for Mother I could not stop thinking of the dream I had last night. I do not clearly remember the event that took place in the dream. However, this is not odd since I cannot always recall my dreams. 

I do recall that in my dream from last night I was on my bedroom balcony. A stunning petite woman was wrapped in my arms. The lovely woman felt like she was meant to be in my arms.  She had long blonde hair and she had a lovely laugh. I walked into the sitting room where I assumed I would find Mother and Elycia. 

Mother and Elycia enjoy drinking tea in the sitting room around this time of day. My assumption was correct because they were relaxing together. Mother and Elycia are sitting on a cream fabric couch near a large window in the center of the room. Mother turned her head once she felt my presence. 

"Hello Blyn. Have you finished preparing for your departure?" asked Mother. Her hair was down and cascaded down her back. She wore a soft blue gown with green lace roses. The gown had a sweetheart neckline with dropped sleeves and a mermaid bottom. "Yes I have Mother. I was hoping you would have the gown."

Elycia turned her head while holding onto her deep blue teacup. Her black hair is pulled up into a high bun. She is wearing a pink gown with a halter neck, side sleeves, and a mermaid bottom. "I have the gown with me. Mother suggested I bring it while we have tea" said Elycia. Mother must have assumed that I would finish preparing while they were having tea.
