I am alone or am I?

The finding...

The Witch looked like she wanted to blow Vun up into pieces and scatter them into the lake. she was very protective over her daughter and disliked the Prince.

Vun stood up taller his fury clear on his body and clenched fists. He took deep breaths to restrain his emotions. White Witch has never seen him lose his composure until today.  There was a reason he was called the Cold stone of Aque, he never showed any sort of emotion.

‘Your Lord, I will use any means to protect my daughter.’ The Witch replied calmly to keep control of the situation.

I wished the Prince no harm, but deeply disliked his cold arrogant person. I was once a dear friend of his mother and despise the person he has grown into over the years. A merciless and a cold leader that everybody feared. Instead of wilting away and letting his weakness over power him, he has stood firm and made it his strength. I admired him for this quality but it is slowly reducing his remaining positive life force. Without his queen he will never become a Ruler of Aque and he will be shunned by the galaxies. To be alone is most unheard of, especially never to know a lover. The Aque galaxies need the two life forces of male and female to unite and connect with the planets’ life forces and continue life. Vun’s heart will eventually turn cold and turn on his soul and life force. He will wonder the galaxies alone and insane.

The Witch stood back a little, she pitted him but will not allow him to harm her daughter.

‘You are threading on dangerous grounds Elzu’ Vun spoke in an icy tone that sliced the air.

He was seething and could not hold his composure. All his walls were falling one by one as an unleashed and suppressed powerful emotion came to the surface. He could feel his body heat raising and knew he will eventually lose control. Something he has been preventing for 30 sun cycles.

The witch looked on quietly and took a step back, the Prince was showing colours and a royal’s emotion colour can turn a person into dust if they are too near.   

‘Sire….I will protect  my daughter’ I…

She looked behind him and saw her daughter running towards the house. With clear relief I faced the Prince, closing her magic channels.

I needed to calm him and find out what trigged it. If he does not take control, he will eventual kill me and destroy his positive life force, leaving him empty a Ill of an insane person.

‘Lax, Umanturo swele, lax umanturo sawe’ I chanted the relaxation spell and directed my white energy at the Prince and to smooth his negative colour.

This would not work on a royal but it would give him back some control to reign in his power.

Vun was too busy fighting his inner demon to notice what the witch did. He will not lose control! He had too much at stake now to lose it all to a slip of a girl and a strange place. The image of the strange land and the electric currents took hold of his mind. In agreement his heart slowed down and focused on the feelings the green land evoked. It was a pleasant welcoming feeling and smooth over his emotions. His mind and heart worked together in harmony to regain control.

The witch stopped her chanting and observed the Prince regain control at an incredible speed. His composure and natural aura returned. But instead of a cold detached aura, he seemed always content.

Surprised the witch walked towards him. ‘Sire, may I talk to you?’

The Prince focused on his reality and looked at the witch. ‘What?’ He was annoyed she saw him almost lose control. The one person that spoke his doom almost witnessed it. Locking his jaw he gave her a quizzing look.
