GLAMOR

“We’re finally at the entrance gate of the city. Your highness.” – Mr. Koala Sweet breeze encircles me as I find my way out of the carriage. The serenity of the night sky, brought a soothing sensation of my very being. Like it was all I’m needing to wash away the tiresome journey that I had. Looking in front of me, now I could get to see it with my very eyes – the magnificence and splendor of the great city of Cavour. Well, the entrance gate says it all. The colossal statue of a roaring lion ridden by Sidares the Great, brought us fear and awe. A memorial statue of the late king of Cavour – the conqueror of all southern provinces. With all those towering walls that barricaded around the city, I guess there’s no more turning back in this journey I’m entangled to. “This way please. Your highness.” – Mr. Koala Royal consorts then meet us up. Lead us the way and assist us for my settlement at the royal house. The luxury of the royal quarter is quite fancy and celestial. “Welcome to the quarter of all the royal guests! Settle for your comfort, young lady. Feel free to call us up if you need something.” Says the head of all eunuchs. “Thank you, for all your assistance. I guess this gonna be all for now. You may take your leave.” Replied Mr. Koala *bows* - royal consorts By the way, let me introduce myself. I am Serra the heiress of Troav. One of the provinces dominated by the reigning king Lesvos of Cavour. Wondering why on earth I got to take a step in here? It was late in the afternoon when I got a knock outside my room. It was from my personal assistant actually. She handed me an intricate letter coming from the royal house of the Great city of Cavour. It says, “Good day, heiress of Troav, under the dominion of our great king, Lesvos of Cavour the conqueror of all South. Hear the order of our great king! On the third day, of the month of June you are obliged to go to the fortress of the King. The great city of Cavour!” – signed by the king Yea. It’s all what it says. So there’s no way of knowing for me why on earth I was specially called out for. I’m so done. Returning all the favor of Lesvos of Cavour actually. The giving of gold, the first fruits of our produce and offering graceful ladies as tribute. If only not for the sake of my people I wouldn’t even dare come here. There’s nothing else I could do for he has a hold of us. Refusing to abide thy king’s order would put me and my people at stake. Let me be thy end to all of these sufferings we’ve had though. “You should go to sleep now, your highness. It’ll gonna be a long way ahead. I’m gonna stand on ground outside. So, don’t worry.” – Mr. Koala “Thanks, Mr. Koala.” I responded Mr. Koala is my personal bodyguard. Exactly, this gonna be a long and tiring journey for me and who knows what’s been waiting for me in here? Gotta take a nap.
