LOVE

AND WAR

THERE THEY STOOD ARMED AND READY FOR WAR. The people cheered on for their Pharaoh and Prince and for their victory. Oberyn and Ellaria shared a passionate kiss to bid him luck as he would lead the Martell army.

The sisters emerged from in the palace, both wearing dresses of Egyptian princess. Kiara stood next to Kaizer as the High Priest bid them luck. Cupping his cheek, she gave him a peck with a smile “Return with the victory you deserve, brother” Kiara says and Kaizer smiles. They bid each other good luck and soon, they departed with their horses galloping, both, Pharaoh and Prince crossed their arms in an X signalling strength as they departed.

Sighing, she was sat on her stool in the balcony of her chambers with her cousin as she sipped her white wine “I don't know anymore,” she admitted “I know I love him but I also know that without this marriage then our kingdom will crumble down”

“hush now child. They are already at war, what we can do right now, is pray to the Gods they return with the victory they so deserve... only then, will your marriage begin with the Prince” spoke Nenet “I don't want to marry him, he has a... paramour and I'm just a child to him.” spoke Kiya

“I love Ka......but I know that it's my duty as a princess to put my duty above all else...I feel horrible for lying to my siblings..... especially Khnum..he is one I'm more closer to” she says looking down. Silence was filled between the two of them till Nenet suggested “Perhaps you should talk with your sister, she would definitely understand”

“But it's indeed a fact she will be against it” she stated “there is no harm in trying” smiled Nenet softly to the young princess

“Oh yes, Dorn is very beautiful.” spoke Doran to Kiara. Lately, the young princess got close to the Martell Prince, she looked up at him like a father, gave her some ruling advise and she was glad. It had been a long time she had ever felt like a child asking so many questions “I'm sure my sister will like it. She looks loves gardens a lot. She feels peaceful when she's in there”

“Everyone feels peaceful when they are a quiet place. That's why it gives them peace, so they can think and clear Their minds” he says. After her brother's departure, Doran thought it was best clearing her mind and speaking to her about Dorn “I imagine it is difficult for you, sitting and everything” she sympathizes “But it does not stop me from ruling and Dorn is still standing and thriving”

“That is what me and my siblings have fought for every single day we wake up. A standing and thriving kingdom” she sips her wine

“And you will get that. My father once told me, a thriving Kingdom is built with dedication and heart. If you are dedicated then you shall see your kingdom thrive to a greater good” he says and she beamed “my father too” she stares out the huge balcony of the dining hall, the sun in the verge of setting and the war in verge of taking place any time soon

“You miss him, do you not?” he asks grabbing her attention “Everyday I wake up, I think of them. That is why I fight for a better dynasty....to make them proud of us” she softly smiles

“That is what I always kept in mind when my father left me to take on the throne of Dorne,” he stares off at the pyramids “How long have they been?” he asks, curiosity getting the better of him “Many many centuries before I was even born. That's what makes them special about our kingdom. They hold out ancestors in them, protecting them in the journey of the underworld” she spoke

A few days past, Kiara had taken care of running the kingdom while her brothers were away. Today would be the day they returned so they all gathered in the throne room, the Royal Vizier was no where to be seen as Oberyn entered with some of the men and the General. Khnum and Kaizer was nowhere to be seen as Kiya held Kiara's arm not knowing what was going on “Where are my brothers?” she asks the General and he kept quiet

It was then Ay came in “The Pharaoh is dead” he stated “No” she said quickly, eyes falling on the marble floor “he cannot be dead” she stated as tears fell down the sisters eyes “he's dead” repeated Ay and she felt her heart shatter

“And the Prince?” asked Kiya with all hope for her dear brother “He's body was never found” Lagus says with synaptic eyes for the princess as they welled up in tears

“But the victory have won” stated the General “You speak of Victory when the Pharaoh is dead!” hissed Kiara not wanting to accept any of this. Ay rubbed her arm, calming her down
“Where is his body?” she asks and Lagus and Ay lead the sisters to their brother's body.

They entered a hall with Khnum's body laying on the stone bed table. She dismissed them all coming over to her brother, at the sight, she broke down by herself with Kiya standing by the door crying.

Kiara remembered the last words he told her before going into war;

“If something happens to us, Kiara, I need you to rule this Kingdom with Pride and Honor, can you do that?”

“i will. But you need not worry brother, you will both come back safe and sound”

Her forehead linked with her brother's as she cries.

A few days later, they had prepared his burial. She watched as his coffin was lowered in his Tomb, tears brimming in her eyes. She had lost both her brothers and she had to stand up and not cry, for this is not the time to cry but rule for a greater Egypt and carry on her brother's name fresh in people's mouth...no matter what it takes...
