Kingdom of the Plains, OverWorld
Dusk

Daniel and Petra were giving the new arrival, Scarlet, a tour of the Kingdom. The stars were twinkling in the night sky, and the moon shines bright.

Everyone was still awake, finishing up their daily tasks. The farmers were hurdling their cows and sheep back into their barn for the night. The farmers didn't want the wolves coming after their animals.

The statues of Daniel and Petra were still under construction. Once those are finished, the statues will be a symbol of their willingness and bravery. The entire kingdom was united as one.

After the battle had ceased, and the Kingdom was built, both Daniel and Petra worked together to heighten the security and safety of the Kingdom. Their first step was to build a wall around everything. The wall was nearing completion. Cobblestone was chosen to build the wall.

Spanning almost twelve blocks into the air, the wall was impenetrable from both sides. Stationed outside, up against the wall, were members of the Guardsman. The Guardsmen were the Kingdom's protectors. The only gate leading into the Kingdom was closed, and protected by three Guardsmen.

The horse neighed, the cows moo'd, and the pigs oinked. As the night sky began to settle in, everyone was beginning to go back to their homes for the evening. It was getting late after all. Tomorrow is going to be an extremely busy day.

"Thank you for the tour, your majesty's," Scarlet said as she smiled, "I hope you didn't mind me coming here?"

Daniel and Petra looked at Scarlet. Daniel was wearing his golden crown, and Petra was wearing her silver tiara. They both shook their heads.

"No worries my friend," Daniel said, "you're safe. That's all that matters. Let's go back to the Castle. I hope you're hungry."

"Extremely hungry," Scarlet responded as she began following behind Daniel and Petra.

They continued walking back towards the Castle. When they arrived at the front entrance, Victor bowed before his King and Queen.

"Welcome back your majesties," Victor said.

"Victor," Queen Petra said, "good to see you again. May you let us enter please?"

"Of course your majesty," Victor responded as he looked over at Fredrick. Victor nodded his head. Fredrick then opened the door to the castle and allowed Scarlet, Daniel, and Petra to pass.

Once inside the Kingdom, Scarlet was amazed at how big the halls of the Castle were. Cobblestone walls, oak wood floors, and large red stone torch chandeliers hanging from the curved ceiling.

"This place is so big. How long did it take for you to build this?" Scarlet asked as she examined the architecture of the castle. There were paintings hanging on the wall. There was one picture of King Daniel and Queen Petra standing next to one another.

Daniel and Petra exchanged quick glances at each other. They laughed slightly. "You wouldn't believe us even if we told you."

"I'm all ears," Scarlet responded, continuing to glance at the beauty of the castle she was in.

"The Gods of the OverWorld gifted us with this entire Kingdom," Daniel answered, "after we defeated EnderBrine and NetherBrine."

"Wasn't there a third one?" Scarlet asked.

"You mean HeroBrine?" Petra asked.

"Yes. Did you defeat him too? Where is he now?" Scarlet asked.

"My almighty. You're full of questions, Scarlet," Daniel said, sharing a laugh with Scarlet and Petra.

As they came to the end of the hallway, they all stopped walking. Daniel and Petra both glanced at one another before looking at Scarlet.
