Part II: Human Kingdom

When Abril returned to the palace, the queen instructed one of the servants, “Find the human king and bring him before me.”

“As you command, Your Majesty.”

While they waited for Alessandro to arrive, Enora pointed to Lissana and said, “You should think carefully about what I told you. Her body won’t be able to withstand so much power for long.”

“I will.”

It was almost time to leave, and there was still one thing Abril hadn’t been able to ask. “I have a friend; she’s half–fairy and she’s dying. I tried to heal her with my magic, but it didn’t work.”

“I suppose you’re talking about the black–haired girl who was taking care of your daughter.”

“Yes.”

“I saw something strange in her. Now I understand what it was–she’s dying.”

“Do you know any way to help her?”

“Being near your daughter will help, but it will only be temporary. Each species has its own diseases. If you can’t heal her, she should return to the fairy land. They usually have more power in their own realm, and the queen there might know how to cure her. Though she doesn’t look it, she’s very old. If anyone knows what she has, it would be her.”

“Thank you.”

“I’m sorry I couldn’t be of more help.”

Enora gestured to one of the servants, who approached with a tray carrying several flasks of different colors. Abril recognized only one of them–it was the same one Ethan had given her.

“This is a gift for you. Elves with nullification magic can’t use many things to heal ourselves. These potions will help you heal faster and replenish your magic if you exhaust it. But use them only when absolutely necessary; they are very hard to come by.”

“Thank you.”

“Be very careful, and if you ever need my help, don’t hesitate to ask.”

“I know you don’t like me and that you’re doing all this for my mother, but I still appreciate it.”

“It’s not that I don’t like you. I just find it hard to accept what’s different, what’s unnatural.”

Alessandro appeared, and Abril felt happy to see him. Since she had returned, she didn’t want to be

separated from her family, not even for a short time. He wrapped his arm around her and asked,

“Everything okay?”

“Yes, everything’s fine.”

Enora asked, “How did it go in the Guardians‘ Hall?”

“I thought they would tell me where the other Hades key is, but they said the two keys should not

be together, that it would be dangerous.”

“I think so too. It’s best that both keys are far apart and, if possible, that the missing key never

appears.”

“My sister Cira won’t rest until she finds it.”

“Then you must prepare for what is to come and safeguard the key that is in your possession.”

“That’s what we’ll do.”

Enora addressed Alessandro, “You are a guardian. If you need the clans, we are obliged to help

you. Don’t forget that.”

“I won’t.”

“I suppose you won’t stay for dinner.”

“You suppose correctly. We just want to go home.”

“Then I’ll open a portal for you.”

Enora was about to open the portal when Kiara suddenly appeared, saying, “Mother, wait, please.”

“What is it, Kiara?”

“Can we talk for a moment?”

“And does it have to be now?”

“Yes, it has to be now.”

“Alright.”

“Alone, if possible.”

“I’ll be right back,” Enora said as she walked away with Kiara following her. Once they were out of the room, Enora asked, “What is it, Kiara?”

“Let me go with them.”

“No, I won’t let you go with the humans.”

“Why not?”

“Because I said so.”

“You think I’ll make the same mistakes as Aunt Sophia. Is that why you forbid me from going to the

human realm?”

“I just don’t want to see you suffer, and besides, I don’t understand why you want to go with them.”

“I want to help. A war against the darkness is about to begin. I want to help with my power. I want to support my cousin.”

“I don’t agree with you going with them.”

“Mom!”

“But I know you, and I know you’ll do whatever you want, so I won’t stop you from going.”

“Really?!”

“Yes, but I’ll ask you to be very careful while you’re there.”

“Don’t worry, I know how to take care of myself.”

“You’ll need to pack your things. They want to leave now.”

“Don’t worry, I have everything I need right here,” Kiara said, pointing to her bag.

“Now you’ll have to convince them to take you, but I doubt they’ll be thrilled about it.”

“Don’t worry, I’m sure they won’t refuse.”

When they returned to the room where Alessandro and Abril were, Kiara asked if she could go with them. Since neither of them objected, Enora said nothing more to prevent Kiara from going to the

human realm.

Enora opened the portal that led to the kingdom of Cosset, directly to Alessandro and Abril’s room. Before they crossed the portal, Enora said, “I leave my daughter in your care.”

To which Alessandro responded, “Don’t worry, we will take good care of her.”

Alessandro, Abril, and Lissana crossed the portal at the same time. Kiara turned to look at her mother before crossing, and Enora said, “Take care, Kiara.”

She smiled and replied, “See you soon, Mom.”

Kiara crossed the portal, which immediately closed. Dantriel, who had remained in a corner, approached Enora and said, “I’m surprised you let her go.”

“It wouldn’t have done any good to stop her. She always ends up doing whatever she wants. I just hope she doesn’t do anything reckless while she’s away.”

“She’s a smart girl; she’ll be fine.”

“I hope so.”
