"you are the one universe choose, Rose. Only you can do this. Believe in yourself."
The old man handed a sword that glowed even in the darkness of this cell and dispersed in the air, leaving the girl clueless, helpless. With hope that someone will...

Days passed like forever and i still don't have any idea how to bring back father or where that woman kept him. Is he alright or not. Is he even alive?
My reflection on the still and easy water caught my attention in the lake while i am standing at the edge of wooden path. A drop dips down from who knows where and rippled the reflection as the waves ran to do the end of the shore but faded in halfway.
I felt the stiffness of the air and heard a sound, which was different then other birds here. The sound was coming louder at every breeze. Someone is coming.
I looked up at the sky and saw a dark coloured - which was blue as it came near - dragon whose spines are sharp as blade, wings are big as the whole sky can hide in them. I placed my hand on the sword that had been in the right hip of mine. Alarmed.
It seems like that dragon sensed my alertness.
"I'm here for no war, Prince." Said the dragon but the owner of voice was not that. A feminine voice with a different curve way of speaking but was like fire that could burn the world with only it's voice.
"Then speak your motives, Corvina." It was obvious who this voice belongs to. I tried to say her name with the same curve and fire that she holds but failed anyway. Her name is like fire itself, twist and curves with the wind and grow but only leaves dark ashes behind.
The dragon's mouth opens again. "I am here to negotiate. Give me that human girl and i won't attack your kingdom." This is a sure a trap, but for what?
"Why do you want her?" She stayed silent for a while.
"Why? Does prince has fallen for her?" That made my jaw clenched and grip tightened on the sword and I'm sure she could see the popped veins on my wrist . Like i want to cut her into pieces but it's no use, she is not here. Coward.
"You should think about yourself."
"Indeed." She didn't say anything after that to fill the silence. I understood what she meant.
"But don't you think i will be at loss. U promised to give kingdom and no kingdom is established without it's king. Give me the king." I tried to stay confident as i can but deep down i could feel my nerve trembling with the chill in the summer. She stayed silent for some minutes again.
"But only if you give that human. otherwise you all will face the consequences."
The dragon left to where it came from. Leaving alone again with my reflection. I turned back as the tap voice of my boots made a sound like rain on the wood. I have to choose between my father and Rose. This is a trap of her but this is the only way i can see him and do something.
"Find the girl and bring her safe to me."
"On our lives!"
I really didn't wanted to find her but since Corvina is also is behind her, i have to save her.
Ahhh why do I want to save her? I should have just let that witch take her and bring the King the back. But ofcourse she must want something from Rose and I'm sure that it's not good for all of us.
I'm doing this for the King of Serendipity, My father. His life is more important than that human girl. But many days since she left from here i doubt if she is even alive or? Of course she is alive otherwise Corvina wouldn't demand her.
Many hours passed but soldiers again came with dissappointed on their face. Where can she even go? Rose can't go any far from here by herself, I'm sure something has happened perhaps someone else is also involved in this.
۞۞۞
"Where is she?" My voice echoed in the green forest and then come back to me. The forest has never been this quite before and that made me sure that these spritis has something to do in this.
Serendipity is a place where even rocks has spirit, that we calls mountain spirits. Rivers have spirits too. Like forests. All spirits have different personalities and likes. Just like forest spirits are kind and provides shelters to whom that needs it. Not everyone knows that but as the son of the king, and soon-to-be-king, i know.
"I asked where is Rosé?!" Still nothing. "Fine if that's what you want." They don't have any idea what i can do to find her and they asked for it. So let them have it.
My sword swung in the air as it cuts the one of the gaint tree into two parts like butter. The bigger part of the tree falls slowly on the ground as many dust particles flew in the air. And with that, i cutted another one, then another and when i was about to cut the fourth one, a liquid showered on my skin.
My veins were so visible green like they could come out of my body anytime. Suddenly blood in my body felt like warm lava, burning my skin. " Wh..... What's this?!" This burnig pain is killing me. And i felt like my eyes would pop out of my shockets.
"Stop this!" But no one answered nor did it stop.
