The years in between; Garmau

(The real) Reunited Pt. 1

I added the stuff from last time just so it feels complete! This isn't the best, but I worked hard to get it out as I was only on Wi-Fi for about an hour or two today, you're welcome. Love ya all, and hope you enjoy!

Aphmau's POV:

I took a deep breath as I was finally out of that horrible tunnel, and into the town of O'kasis, barely hidden by night's quickly fading shadow, as the sun started to rise, and I knew that I would have to find cover quickly, or else I might be seen by guards. And trust me, when you are the princess to the village that yours is currently at war with,

Every body, knows who you are when they see you.

I darted behind barrels, and buildings, and I finally came upon an inn, where I could stay until morning. This way, the guards wouldn't find it suspicious that I was trying to find the High Priest at this hour of the morning. I walked in, to see no one at the desk, which was expected at 1:00 in the morning. So, I walked behind the mahogany desk, and pulled out a piece of paper. I smacked it down on the table and scribbled down: Thanks for the room. I then placed a few gold coins on the counter beside the note, and took my choice of keys for a room. I walked up the stair case, the floor boards creaking with every step I made, but luckily, no one woke up. I took out the keys, jammed them into the lock, turned it, and it opened.

The room was dusty, the floor boards creaky, but it was good enough to call it home while I was in O'kasis. There was a bed in one corner, and a desk in the opposite one, a wardrobe besides the door, and a shelf hanging on the wall. I striped my armor off, and placed it beside the door, with the rest of my weapons. I had a black long sleeve shirt underneath, and also black leggings. I flopped down onto the bed, exhausted from my all night travel, and stared up at the ceiling. My legs were tired of hurting, my eyes were tired of burning, my heart was tired of aching.

"Garroth," I called out, "I know you can't hear me," hot tears rolled down my cheeks, "But I need you to wait for me," I closed my eyes, but opened them immediately, because all I could see was a picture of him, chained up, hurting, "I promise, that no matter what," I tightly clenched my fist, "I will bring you back," and with that I stood up,

"No matter the cost."

The city was bustling this time of day, which was lucky for me, for I was hidden under the veil of others, if this wasn't true, I would've stuck out like a sore thumb to more than just the people around me, as I was wearing my armor again. The sun was high in the sky, white puffy clouds dotting the atmosphere, and I could smell flowers and fresh produce from the market stands around me. There were many a child playing in the fields, in the fountain, or just throughout the crowds. I smiled, despite the rulers, this place was home to some beautiful people.

I walked up to the fountain in the center of the square, and pulled out my last spare coin. It glimmered unlike my previous ones, with a shine that lit up my eyes. I closed my eyes, and wished as hard as I could, and tossed the coin into the fountain, letting it sink down to the bottom, to join the rest of its friends. I lent on the fountain, but was quickly jerked to the side as two kids pushed me out of the way, running, or playing some sort of tag. It made me laugh for the first time in a few days, and the thought made me smile even more.

I weaved through the crowd, the confidence keeping in my step, and I walked up the hill to the gates of the royal castle.

============

Short, and not amazing, but the best I could pull together with minimal Wi-Fi, and about 3 feet of legroom on a 3 hour flight. I literally could barely fit my laptop on the tray table. Go check out my twitter, cuz I talked about it on there! I will try to put out something tomorrow, but, I don't know if I will have time, so, don't hold me to that promise. I love you guys!

Cya when I do!
