CH. 3 - Jewelled Eyes

Jewelled Eyes

"Blessings and Glory upon the sun of the Obelian Empire." Someone said.

When I look up, I saw my trusted Knight, Felix Robane, bowing.

"What is it?" I ask him because it's rare for him to speak when it isn't an important matter.

Normally, he just greets me in the morning when I go out of my chamber.

"Your Majesty, isn't it okay to go out for one day? The upcoming festival in the Capital. There's an event for His Majesty, to open the festival. People are expecting that you'll come." He said.

I rubbed my temples due to my headache.

"I have to do that?" I asked him, to which he nodded.

I sighed. "You can leave."

"Blessings and Glory upon the sun of the Obelian Empire." 

I continued my work when my headache grew...

"Don't go. Choose me. Now, in this moment, not the child who is eating away your life, but me!"

I looked around and saw a man kneeling in front of a woman, but I cannot see their faces.

I turned my head but I was only welcomed by darkness. Where am I?

Then I heard "The Lady has given birth." I saw two men but still the faces I can't see.

What's happening.

I opened my eyes and saw my office once again. What happened?

I need a break.

I stood up after I decided to take a walk in the garden when I went out, I noticed Felix, jumped a little and started following me.

A few hours have gone by when I decided to hear to my chamber and take a nap.

I woke up in the middle of the night once again.

When will I have a peaceful sleep?

Wait.

Hah! That'll never happen.

What were you thinking?

Festival.

I suddenly remember Felix's words. Hah, now I need to do an opening at that festival.

I wonder why I'm looking forward to that festival. I wonder why.

"Good Morning, Father!" I hear that phrase again. That girl.

The guard just brought her saying that a cloaked man gave it to him. Jewel Eyes, A royal blood.

I know, that wench isn't my daughter.

It's that witch's daughter, and I didn't touch her. Someone else touched her.

I wonder what they want to do with this play. 

"You can leave," I said to that wench.

After a few minutes, I heard that wench say "Blessings and Glory upon the sun of the Obelian Empire." Continued by the opening and closing of the doors.

I continued my work having headaches here and there.

That's how my days have always been.

I DON'T OWN THE CHARACTERS.
