"King Jeon, the land of Χειμώνα (cheimónas)."

A group of men are standing in front of a huge gate made of a dark oak. In front of the gate, they can feel a slightly cold breeze from the direction of the inside of the gate. It was an odd feeling for them. Being from the land of the fall where everything is warm in the day, but cold at night. The land of winter was something they weren't prepared for. It was full of colder breezes and it was to rain or snow every few days until summer. This weather was all day everyday too. Luckily they did have the clothing for it, but not as much as they thought would be needed.

The leader of the men makes his way to the front and approaches the gate. "I am King Jeon. I'm here to gather information that your queen has given me permission to," he yells to get whoever is in charge of the gate. At first the gate doesn't even budge, but a few guards soon come out to great them. These guards are in dark grey armor and have light blue capes falling off of their shoulders, landing just an inch or so from the ground.

"Hello Jeon, we are to transport you to the queen. She wants to meet you before letting you explore," a guard with minty blue hair speaks. "Please follow us." Jungkook motions for his group of guards to follow the Park guards.

All the men quickly make their way to the castle where the queen is waiting for the arrival of King Jeon. She currently sits in her office with anticipation and a nervous son. This meeting was more of a way to present her only kin, but she was planning on making it seem like it wasn't. Like hiding it with directions to the library and some questions to test how safe King Jeon was. Queen Park did this with most kings in order to protect her kingdom, but even she's heard some rumors and was going to take full advantage of this moment. Maybe a ruler with experience could help Jimin for what is to come to the poor winter prince.

In just a matter of a few minutes, people are all crowded in the office. Two Park guards, two Jeon guards, a prince, a queen, and a king. The typically cold office wasn't as cold as normal due to the fact of fire users being here too and Prince Jimin controlling the temperature. He was able to help things to not fall as cold because he really didn't enjoy it much too. It was made his nose turn pink and his hands become very cold. He hated his hands being cold because they were naturally so cold already.

"So you're King Jeon. A very young man, just like my own son. How long has it been since you took over the throne?" Queen Park starts off the meeting more like an interrogation. Jungkook at first is taken back from the sudden question and the comparison. He wasn't ready for anything like this because there was no need for a meeting before. This was all very sudden for him. No time for him to prepare.

He clears his throat to respond still. "Three years after both of my parents' lives were taken," Jimin looks at the young king. His heart hurts a little hearing that someone so young has lost both of their parents. He never knew his own father, but the king had to live with losing two very important people in his life. The prince can't even imagine losing one of his guards. He holds everyone so close to him.

But looking at the king didn't help much of the nervousness he was feeling. This king was definitely younger than him, but he was very well built and over the top good looking. His hair was very well done, and his shirt was just tight enough to show off the outline of his muscles. Also the heartbreaking story of his parents just added more to him. Jimin was to never have a chance even in hell with the masterpiece in front of him. His mother would be crazy if she thought he did.

Queen Park nods her head in response. A fairly new King couldn't really do much to her kingdom from the inside. Plus, by telling how his main guards act, they wouldn't be able to hold off her own main guards. Maybe Jimin's, but never her own trained killer machines. "What is it exactly you're here for?" She continues with questions. It is something to know. Why does another royalty personally come for information? Especially information from another kingdom that doesn't really have an alliance with them... Just a peace treaty to not fight each other.

"A book. It's name is The Magic Rulers. Sounds a bit dumb, but I heard it has a lot of information-"

Before Jungkook could finish, Jimin cuts in. "I-i have that book in my room, s-sir." He looks up at the king who's face lit up. "Oh wait, I mean King Jeon. I am so sorry for not calling you formally. I'll get book that go now... I-... I mean I'll go get that book now. I am so, so sorry."

The small blonde boy bows before he races out of the room from embarrassment. His mother watches as her son exits the room and how the king smiles at the nervous wreck that left. A smile means a good thing if they can interact more. Maybe she can find her son someone to help continue the bloodline. King Jeon was a pretty promising person too. The rumors are more than likely true because it was guards spreading them. Even though guards take whatever they can to run with, if it's their rulers, they make sure the facts are right or very well proven.

"That is my only son and heir to the throne. I am not sure how to describe him," the queen softly speaks while dragging the attention back to herself. Jungkook looks at the queen who's holding a mischievous smile. "But I'm quite sure you'll get around to knowing him. It just takes him a bit to calm his nerves."

~~~~~~~~

A week has past since King Jeon arrival.  Everyone by now has gotten use to him staying in the castle while he reads the book and talks to the elders here. His mission was to gather much more information on his kind and meet the winter user in this kingdom. He doesn't for surely know who bares that magic though. Almost everyone here uses ice or water magic. Not one person giving much hints to their specialness too.

This slightly bothers him. He doesn't want to leave until a he can figure out who the user is. His plan was originally to only stay here a week. Enough time to talk with elders, meet the winter bearer, and read the book. He's almost finished with the book and has already talked with the elders. There's just that one thing left to do.

With the distractions of not knowing who can use the winter magic, Jungkook decides it is best for him to clear his mind with a small walk. The castle is kind of huge, so his small walk will be of mostly exploring. Maybe he might run into the prince too. They have been getting to know each other when Jungkook finds himself not wanting to read or can't talk to an elder. Most of the time they would just share random knowledge they had, but it did lead to interesting facts being told of each other. Like how Jungkook can easily use his magic to fight, but always goes with a physical fight due to his strength and that a lot of others don't work on physical strength. People mainly focus on magic, so when it slows down, they can't protect themselves in any other way. But Jimin is a polar opposite. He loves to heal others, and like Jungkook, he uses his actually skills before magic.

Finding the prince isn't hard, normally. The young king found that out when Jimin said his favorite thing to do was to read and that everyday he spends hours also training himself to cast stronger spells. Jungkook knows where the library in the castle itself and down the street is, but he has no clue where the training room is. It would be nice to know because than he could work himself a bit too. Maybe they could train together and trade some good training techniques? Jungkook could use some better tips for magic. He hasn't been working on it much recently.

After wondering a bit, sounds of crashing and heavy winds draw the king to a room. It was definitely magic training, which peeked his curiosity. With the new curiousity he holds, opens up the door to peak in. A sight to be seen before him. A beautiful one indeed.
