The darkness slowly fades...

On the Varekian camp, two strangers wearing hoods and riding horses dared walked in their enemy's territory...

The soldiers were amused... who are these strangers who dared made their death easier?

The soldiers are angry,...are this strangers insulting them, that they can just walked in their camp visibly?

The strangers stopped at the King's tent, a guard stop them, this is as far as they could go with their horses

"Who dares?!" the guard spoke firmly, clearly only the best, guards the king

one of the strangers got down from her horse and answered the guard with equal firmness, she is not afraid

"We bring message from Lothian!"

"The KING does NO-" The guard was cut-off by a voice 

"Isaiah, let them in!" a female's voice has stop the guard, it was Marthaine, the king's new wife andVarekia's greatest and bravest female warrior

"But mi-lady!"

"King's order!" She spoke with the voice that says follow or be killed 

"As you wish mi-lady" Isaiah bowed, he has no choice, in his voice it is very clear that he never liked the girl, he never liked girls who thinks they better than anyone but what can he do? she is the queen.....

the strangers went inside the tent, it was bigger than it looks on the outside, it was filled with soldiers, jars and weapons, a man wearing a golden crown and a long red cape was sitting in the middle, they were brought in front of the king

"Your bravery amaze me" a smirk from the king welcomed the strangers

"It is our honor to be with your presence, your highness... we bring message from Lothian sire"

"Though you are brave, still Did they really think, I would listen to mere messengers?"

"Your highness if you'll only listen....."

"I have heard the said 'destined twins' of Alterria has arrived, and I thought they would be a challenge" The king laugh, his wife did, his guards did, all of them did

"You're right your highness, they have arrived actually we thought you would not notice our arrival, since it was no challenge to walk pass your guards".  king Verki's smirk suddenly vanished as he seriously gazed at the strangers, they are not only strange... there is something in them that's making the king nervous.... and to top it all, both of them are females... who are this strangers?... this is the question that everyone in the tent wants to ask

"Who are you?" and the question that only the king dared to asked

It was the strangers turn to smirk, both of them slowly took their hoods off and gracefully bowed to the king...

The king raised his eyebrow, who are these female species that dared insult his authority.....realization finally hit him, after the second stranger took of her hood...... after he notice that they look exactly alike

"Don't tell me you're the-"

"Lara and Tara Arst Le Faye of Alterria, your higness" Lady Lara answered the unfinishedquestion of the king, she is the one who's speaking all this time, she is the one who's good in words after all..... Lady Tara did spoke once, it was she who made the king silent or maybe angry,.... now you see why Lara insisted to do the talking.......
