After saying his goodbyes to Matt, James immediately walked back towards his room. Along the way, he saw his sister talking to someone. It was a girl with brown hair and she had her back turned. Once Daphne saw her brother, she waved at him. This in turn made the girl turn around and James could see her features.

"Hey James, great timing. Allow me to make the introductions, this is a fellow nymph and a sirenix user just like me. Meet Politea" said Daphne.

"Politea? Ah, so you're the one that Daphne mentioned. She wouldn't stop talking about you" said James.

"And she does the same with you. So you're prince James, I've heard of the commotion on Solaria. Nice save on your part, those fairies certainly got what they deserved" said Politea.

"Maybe, maybe not. When the world chooses girls over me, you'll find that its a very small world out there. Especially when given the fact that they are among the select few, there's very little you can do about it" said James.

"James....." said Daphne sadly.

"Don't misunderstand me, I know the universe didn't choose me and I accept that. But I don't care, I'm proud...to be small part of something bigger here. The people that the universe did choose......through thick and thin...I'll be there. Supporting them all the way" said James.

".......Boldly spoken......for a warrior. Well I've got to get going, so see you later. Its good to meet you, prince James" said Politea as she left.

Soon James and Daphne walked the opposite way but unknown to them, Politea had a evil smirk on her face.

"Truer words have never been spoken James, when the time comes. You may yet have a part to play in my grand scheme, once I get rid of your troublesome sister of course" thought Politea.

As James and Daphne walked down the corridor, James's future self appeared beside his past self as a ghostly image.

"Yes, this was how it was back then. Never did I imagine in a million years that Politea would betray my sister in her own selfish quest for power. It seemed that the sirenix power had corrupted her way of thinking, I never did however understood why she wanted my sister out of the way in the first place. Maybe she just saw my sister as the only person that could stop her, oh well....she got what she deserved in the end....and that's a story for later" thought the future James as he disappeared.

"Well Daphne, what do you think of this war?" asked James.

"To be honest, I don't like it. It's brought many unwanted disasters and sacrifices. However, if it weren't for this war....the kingdoms of the world would not have allied with one another. Its quite sad really" said Daphne.

"I know what you mean, communicating and meeting each other through violence. Not exactly the ideal way of getting to know one another. However don't forget that before this war, there was another one and the only difference was that the kingdoms were all enemies" said James.

"In this dark time, someone has to stand up and end it" said Daphne.

"And that's where you come in Daphne" said James as he opened the door to his room.

"Me?" asked Daphne.

"You're the fairy..........no...guardian fairy. My apologies.....you and your kind can save the world but only if you are all united and not separated like right now. A single one of you can put an end to any battle, what happens if all of you come together and fight as one? That's my advice, stand and fight together.....because that's when we're at our strongest....as one" said James as he entered his room.
