In the last chapter:

"I'm going after him."

Aphmau's POV

Liam stood up from his seat suddenly.

"Lady Aphmau, are you sure?" Liam asked as our eyes met, his full of uncertainty.

I nodded slightly.

"Yes." I said firmly, tears covering my eyes as if to make them appear glossed over.

Liam dipped his head in acknowledgment, knowing that my mind was made up.

"Very well then. You could leave tomorrow if you'd like." I nodded my head at Liam's suggestion.

"You should have a companion to travel with, it might take a while to get to Okasis, and you're gonna need a plan before charging in there." Zoey interjected helpfully.

I nodded again and looked at Zoey.

"I hadn't thought of that, thank you Zoey." I said, my voice warm towards her. She smiled her best smile.

"Just happy to help m'Lord." Zoey chirped merrily.

I heard Liam clear his throat and I looked over at him. He looked as though he wanted something.

"Um, do you want to accompany me on my quest?" I asked him, thinking that's what he was after.

He smiled brightly, proving that I was correct in my assumption, and nodded his head once.

"Of course M'Lady, anything to be of service." He replied, winking at me.

He winked at me......

WHAT DO I DO?!?!?!

I looked away from him, pretending I didn't see his flirtatious advance. My eyes eventually rested on Zoey, and I thought of something that would definitely cheer me up.

"Zoey, where are my boys?" I asked, desperately yearning for an opportunity to see them and entertain them.

She looked slightly surprised that I had asked, but then smiled warmly at me.

"They're still sleeping, I don't have the heart to wake them up." I smiled.

"Just like me, sleeping in for as long aa possible." I replied, looking in the direction of the stairs.

I hope they're doing okay.... I have'nt really seen them in a while. I hope Zoey's been taking care of them.

"I'll see them before I leave, for now, I have to prepare for our journey." I stated, glacing over at Liam. He smiled brightly and started walking towards the door.

"Well, a guy named Dante was going to give me a tour at around this time, so I'm be around the village with him somewhere. I take my leave now." He claimed just before he walked confidently out the door.

Me and Zoey made eye contact and she wiggled her eyebrows.

"You picked another good one Aphmau! He's a real cutie, and he's incredibly nice!"

I felt my blood swarm to my cheeks hurridly.

"You misunderstand, he aided me in my escape from Okasis!" I said hurridly. Zoey looked me up and down real quick before responding.

"Mhhmmm, sure he did. In any event, what do you think you'll need for you're journey?" Zoey questioned.

"Well, we're going to require the obvious necessities, food, water, means of building a shelter, and weapons. We'll be traveling by land instead of sea, we need the element of surprise on our attack." I said, my voice transforming into a more serious and lordly tone.

Zoey nodded once in acknowledgment before going to the basement to get the materials required for the journey.

I walked over towards the window that over-looked the sea and stared out into the vast ocean.

We're going to find you Garroth, no matter what it takes.
