"Will you?" Erebor looked a bit flustered this time. Suddenly my throat went dry. A little smile tug his lip corners. "Y..yes..I..I would love to...thank you." I stammer. His lips parted into a toothy grin. "You honored me by keeping my request...thank you." He bows playfully and leady the way. I smile at him shyly.
He pushed open a big arched door which was made up of gold and was decorated with intricate designs. The matt surface of the door shone bright. He pushes the door and we went in.
The room was pure crystal walls of palest pink and blue. Simple yet elegant. A huge mirror is on the left of the room and a white round bed in the middle. There was.a ceiling to floor window which graced the outside glory of the colourful sky. Another silver door on the left marks the entrance of the bathroom. A wooden closet lay near to the mirror and the curtains swaying in the wind. A white furry carpet lay on the floor.
As I devoured the details of the room..I quite did not notice Erebor staring at me. "The room is beautiful. I love it." I beam at Erebor who was looking at me intently. He grins at me and clapped his hands softly.
I furrow my brows at his action. But soon I realized what he did when a woman wearing a white tunic gown and light brown hair entered the room scurrying. "This is Lydia. She shall be your assistance during your stay here in Aurelis." She bows and smiled at me. "Lydia please take care of our guest and prepare her for the ball.tomorrow evening but before that please make sure she eats something. " with that he smiled at me and he retreated before awarding me with an amiable smile."Is is true your grace that you are the last of the Kora clan?" Lydia looked at me with expectant eyes. "Well that's what I have been told.. I really dont know what is so special about this." I tell her as I make my towrds the bed and sat on the edge of it. "Even though we are all ether fairies but only the descendents of the Kora tribe of Celeste mother fairy can conjure the magic from all elements." Lydia says with a tremor of childish excitement.All elements? .......
"Shall i run you a bath your highness?" She tells me as she hands me a robe. "That would be wonderful...thank you so much." Her sweetness was very refreshing in a way.The large oval shaped pool puffed up with soft soapy foam and smelt so heavenly that it alone could rejuvenate ones body.
Lydia took a handful of some glittering powder and sprinkled it in the water. "What is that?" I literally squeaked at her. She looked at me wide eyed but soon collected her mind and smiled at me." Well that was some powder of quartz. It will help....um....It's like a beauty treatment for the Aurelian women. You'll see the result after the bath." I bit my lip as I looked at her in guilt. She gave me the sweetest smile.
" I will leave you to it then." As she went out I looked at the water again . I dropped the robe on a plush cushioned stool and immersed myself in the foamy water.

My body cells tingled with power. My violet eyes are now more shiny. My hair cascaded leisurely in waves over my shoulder and my skin literally was glowing. I stared at myself on the mirror with awe. Lydia dressed me in a white flowing gown . It had intrinsic detailings of small pearls. After combining my hair she dipped her fingers in sweet smelling oil and smeared it on my neck, collarbone, hands and some on my dress. The cowl neck of the dress allowed only a part of my cleverage to be seen. It was teasing yet dainty. The woman in the mirror looked like an angel.
"The king wants you to join him for luncheon this afternoon." Lydia says as she fastened my guardian locket on my neck.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>><<<<<<<<<<<<<
Lydia summoned a guard and asked him to guide me to the dining area.
Thr palace was magnificent. The architecture,the beauty, they were all surreal. At this point my heart lingered back to my home,my aunt,my room. The small purple coloured walls of my tiny room was my place of salvation after a hectic day. I remembered my study table and how met Arfion in the disguise of a scholar of crystal science. It all happened so fast that me being overwhelmed would just be an understatement.
"We are here your Excellency." The guard led me to a terrace top of a tower and pointed at a table laid for two. It was loaded with delicacies which I dont even know the name. He bowed and left curtly.
I flew lesuirely towards the table and looked out at the view. The city of Aurelis. Have you ever felt that you don't have enough vocabulary in you and you are unable to describe the beautiful thing in front of you? Well I was speechless. It eas true to its name as the Cloud Kingdom. The pretty colours of the clouds reflected on the crystalline structure and the city was glittering.
"Beautiful isn't it?" The king stood behind me and smiled at me with his hands behind his back. "Calling it beautiful would be an understatement." I said politely and shyly. He extended his helbow and I took it. "Shall we have lunch?" Je saus with a warm grin. Je was reall good looking. I think all Aurelians look like this. They are the epitome of perfection I believe. "Yes my king, we shall, I will be more than honored to join you." I say as I manage to peek up at him. He smiled at me when our eyes met. "Call me Alecdor" he says. Well aint he the nicest. For a king he was veey apt. He was polite and grave at the same time. We sat opposite to each other and at the sight to the food made my stomach growl. An apprentice fairy comes and puts a bowl of soup and strange bread in front of us and places a neat tray of skewered meat in front of each one of us.
°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°We spent the entire lunch exchanging amusing experiences and funny incidents. The king was a very polite male.
"Dear guardian there is something that we need to discuss which is quite important....We mist meel few important members tomorrow at the ball. Please be ready. I nodded and smiled at him.
"By the way it was a pleasure having your company."
