The Gate

After running for almost about eight hours, with short breaks in between, Everard could finally see the castle of Orsenia at a distance. It was already six in the morning by now. And the night was slowly giving way to a beautiful day.

Everard’s eyes glistened with tears when he saw that beautiful castle that held some wonderful memories.

Since Everard was slowing down a little, his guard turned his head to look at the King’s face. His heart sank when he saw the King’s teary eyes because he thought that the King was so tired to run that he was tearing up.

‘And I made the King run without even asking him if he wanted to rest!’ the guard cursed himself in his mind.

He then instantly asked the King, “Your Majesty? Would you like to rest for a while before you went inside the castle? I can find a guesthouse for you.”

Everard looked at the guard with knitted brows and scoffed. “What? No. We are already here. So, why would I want to waste my time resting?”
