She was glad with that. She wouldn't stop until she reached the capital. And then she would try finding Temorin. The real one.

(Ohhh boy, I can't wait for her to get to the capitol...thats where the real party start lol.)


Bangle raced on relentlessly as some sight became more familiar, resembling the cultural display of the village, but much more ... grief stricken?
That's besides the point. On they went, and on they would go unless Xolia said otherwise.

(big oop)

She glanced at them as she rode past, but she couldn't stop now. Not yet.

The Capitol was within sight. The shimmering walls of the palace were just beyond reach. It seemed much darker and more dreary than before...
It was literal minutes before she'd reach the castle now.

She found it strange and how...sad it seemed from when they left. She couldn't help but wonder what had happened here.

The queen was on the steps of the palace, her head held low in her hands. She was shaking as if she'd never recover from whatever was grieving her. Bangle slowed as they approached the palace, kneeling to allow Xolia off.

She quickly got off Bangle and slowly approached the queen.

The former queen, (My bad. Forgot Xolia was not crowned queen since the wedding lol) without looking up, chocked a demand through her tears.
"Cantana, I told you, there is no sign of them, and no, I don't want a blanket."

"...Its...not Cantana. " She replied softly.

(oop)

"Then who-"

She cut herself off, looking up and discovering who it was. Without a single moment of hesitation, she dove towards Xolia, embracing her firmly with no intentions of letting go at the moment.

Cantana was coming out to ask for the 271st time in counting, only to discover Xolia standing before her. Unable to believe her eyes, Cantana ran back into the building and began shouting, "The Queen! The Queen is alive!!"
