"Oh my, oh myyyyy~! We're getting closer already! Uwaaah! I can't wait to see my little Fayleeeeen!"
A beautiful fairy with colorful wings and long, blonde hair reaching to her feet giggled, wearing a wonderful and glamorously colorful dress made out of fine silk, her eyes shone bright rainbow as they changed colors constantly depending in her emotions, an interesting trait Fairies had.
"When are we getting there?! Hurry!" She said, as her servants nodded.
"We are moving as fast as we can, Queen Arlayna." Sighed one of her closest servants, a beautiful young pink-haired Noble Elf lady wearing elven armor and holding a golden spear and a shield.
"But Maryrose, we must hurry! Hurryyyy!" The queen complained.
"We should get there in about an hour, milady." Sighed Maryrose. "Please, let's wait patiently."
"Ugh, so boring… Maybe I should fly there myself and surprise everyone?!" Suggested the queen.
"NO!"
Everyone in the airship cried at the same time, already stressed with her eccentric personality. She often acted like a spoiled little girl, with her mind in the clouds and always suggesting (or doing) crazy things unbefitting of royalty.
"Geez! Do you have to scream?" The Queen sighed.
"A-Ah, we apologize, my queen!" Maryrose kneeled with everyone else. "W-We were simply… rather tired and perhaps afraid."
Arlayna giggled while waving her hands.
"Hehe, do you have to get so scared? We're all friends here, no worries dear." She giggled gently.
The doors to her chambers suddenly opened as Aina, Faylen's older sister, and her little daughter, Susanna, which was just about the same year as Sylphy entered the room.
"Mother what with all the screams again?" She sighed.
"Oh my babies! How are you this morning?" The queen giggled, flying towards the two of them while leaving a trail of rainbow colors behind the flapping of her wings.
"We are good." Aina smiled gently. "Mother, did you eat your breakfast?"
"Oh, not yet! I am so excited about seeing Faylen and her developing country that I am quite nervous to eat something…" The queen giggled.
"Grandma, let's eat cheesecake and… fruit with cream! You like that, right?" Susanna recommended with an innocent smile, as she was carried in her grandmother's arms.
"Hmmm~ Well if I have this adorable little princess at my side I MIGHT get hungry enough for a treat or two!" The queen said. "Such as… you! Nom, nom~!"
The queen began playing with little Susanna, pretending to bite her little neck playfully, making the little elf princess giggle.
"Hehehehe, that tickles grandma!" Susanna had quite a close relationship with her grandmother. If it wasn't because her mother herself held a very high authority in the family, she would had already been bullied since childhood by her aunt and uncles children.
Due to this protection she grew on, she was very innocent, being a huge contrast from Sylphy and company, as she had never gone through any hardships, living a privileged and easy life since she was born.
"Well, servants, can you bring some breakfast then?" Aina asked.
"Very well, milady." They nodded and flew off, bringing all sorts of desserts and tea for breakfast.
The trio of beautiful elven woman then began their breakfast, talking about Faylen and her daughter and son, Sylph and Zephy the most.
"I heard Zephy is around four or five years old right now." Aina said. "Faylen has already said he has tremendous potential, mother. And he's very, very lovely!"
"Uwaah! I can't wait to see him! I bet he's just as adorable as the little Sylphy!" Said the queen. "That red-haired tomboyish girl is so cute!"
"Y-Yes, she's rather cute but there are many achievements she has done. Did you heard? She and her friends conquered two dungeons and recently defeated a Demon Lord Subject all by themselves!" Said Aina.
"Ooooh! Really?!" Asked Aina. "I did heard something like that, my husband told me so. It seems Sylphy has amazing potential! And she's so cute too! We've never had red-haired children in our family! Zephy's just as adorable!"
"Sigh… Y-Yeah, she's cute." Aina sighed. She was constantly trying to tell her mother how valuable and incredible Faylen's family and her daughter's achievements were, yet the queen, someone that was always judging people by their appearances, could barely recognize it before praising her for her adorable appearance instead.
This was one of the reasons Faylen was very tired of her own mother. She never meant any harm with her words, but she had grown to be such a person due to her own family. The queen instead, was just happy as long as everyone was handsome and beautiful…
"Anyways, mother, today we're going there not just to say hello. Faylen seems to have something very, very important to tell us." Said Aina. "So please, make sure to hear her, alright?"
"Okaaay~" The queen said, while barely having heard her daughter's words as she was devouring a cheesecake while seeing little Susanna eat cookies and drink some fruit juice.
"Well, I hope everything goes alright." Aina sighed, looking into the window. "Something dark is brewing in the Wild Lands of the continent… Arachne, huh? And the heroes we have yet to find… And to make things worse, a strange prophecy about two Demon Kings. I wonder what all of this means?" Aina thought, sipping some tea.
Just about a month ago, one of the Seers of the Kingdom came out with a prophecy. It terrified the royal family, and because of its implications, it hasn't been released to the public yet.
The prophecy was short, yet it brought great fear into the hearts of all those that heard it…
"Two Demon Kings have already been born. One destined to reshape the world, and another destined to destroy it. Amidst their endless battle, a single girl, with blazing eyes like those of a dragon will stand between the two, attempting to slay the gods themselves."
It didn't resolve in anything, and it was utterly chaotic. It implied that something that had never happened before would occur, two Demon Kings being born at the same time. And also, the mysterious girl with blazing dragon eyes attempting to slay the gods themselves…
Everyone was puzzled when they heard it, some even doubtful… yet this Seer's prophecies have always become true.
