14 14 Return To Sadrach

After Adaline was convinced and decided to follow Shem to Sadrach's palace, Shem was so happy. He would be able to meet and look at the girl whenever he wanted, but not only that, along with that, he had to be ready if anything untoward happened. For bringing the fugitives of the Kingdom to the palace even in disguises. It could be that over time it will be caught. Because of that Shem also had to think of other ideas as soon as possible.

"Good evening, my lord. Sorry to wait a long time, besides we are not familiar with this area. We are also having trouble finding the herbs, but we found Anredera Cordifolia leaves. These leaves can speed up healing of the princess's wounds." Elliot said while showing some leaves that he found in the forest.

"Hurry up and do it Elliot, treat the wound. Then we will all return to the Palace as soon as possible. Adaline has agreed. She will disguise herself as your nephew." Shem orders to Elliot.

"As we planned yesterday Elliot, take care of her like your own nephew, what's your nephew's name? How old is she?" continued Prince Shem.

"My nephew who is from a remote area has a girl, her name is Masyayel, aged 17 years," replied Elliot.

"Okay, we call her Masyayel, but Adaline is 20 years old? But it's okay if we just say she deserves that age too. Like your nephew," Shem walked towards Adaline.

He watched closely how Elliot opened the cloth bandage which looked like a clot of blood had been absorbed by the cloth. The cloth that Abraham had pinned for the past few hours. Elliot pounded many leaves for the sword wounds on the Princess's two hands, as well as on her chest. Then Elliot applied the crushed leaf impact to the princess's wounds, until they were evenly distributed. Then he wrapped the cloth again by turning a different side so that the blood that had been dirty was not visible.

"Later in the palace I will change the medicine and bandages, Princess," said Elliot after finishing treating Adaline.

"No! From now on you have to get used to calling her Masyayel, Abraham must also call her like that." Shem ordered his two trusted men.

"This is very dangerous for her and for me. I hope you two become people I trust. Can keep this secret and are willing to help me to continue to protect it and monitor what movements are in the palace. Whatever it has to do with it." He added orders.

"Yes, my lord. I will carry out that task as best I can beyond protecting my own life, Prince," replied Abraham. The loyal commander always gave answers that satisfied his master, he never disappointed his master, really a tough person and a real knight spirit.

Adaline just gave up on the scenario given by Shem. She knew Shem must have come up with the best plan for her. She just felt and had to try to carry out the role as best she could. She tried to get rid of all his fear and sadness.

"Adaline, the three of us will always help you and protect you from the dangers and threats of the palace. Please do your best." Shem drew closer to Adaline and touched the girl's cheek gently.

"Be you a Masyayel, your name is Masyayel now ? I apologize for giving you such a heavy task," continued Shem.

"I will carry out this scenario well, my lord, may God be with us and protect me. I also thank you, you are willing to fight your kingdom for my sake. Even though in secret. That is enough to prove how much you love me than your love for your Kingdom. I am very grateful to you my lord. " Adaline shed tears. Even though the task seems very heavy, but she believes it is all the maximum chosen by Shem, his lover.

Adaline immediately changed her dress to wear the maid outfit Elliot had brought from the palace. She reluctantly took off her luxurious dress. For her to take off her dress and change into a maid's clothes was the same as to give up her peerage, the title princess she was born with, but she had no other choice. This was the only way to defend her life and avoid the Death Penalty status of the Sadrach Royal Palace. She really believes in the three great people who are in front of her eyes. They were unrivaled people, so her safety in the palace would be guaranteed. As long as she did her best to do the job of a servant well.

After everything was ready, the four people prepared to leave the old castle of the Serafin Kingdom. They prepare to leave and travel the long way to the Sadrach Palace.

The three horses that were full because they had been fed by Abraham while looking for the herbs earlier, were ready to make a long journey taking their masters.

"Who am I sitting with Shem? Is it Uncle Elliot?" asked Adaline to make sure.

"You will ride with me, later when near the palace, then you move to Elliot's horse," replied Prince Shem.

"Fine, Shem." Everyone started to get on their horses and got ready to move on.

Shem gallantly got on the horse and he asked Adaline to get on his horse, sitting in front of Shem. Since everything was ready and it was confirmed that there were no items left in the castle, they immediately departed together.

Horse speed that is not too fast and makes the rider comfortable. Shem and Adaline were in the front row, then there was Elliot and at the back was Abraham. All follow the movement of Shem's horse. Since the path is not very fast, the others are like that too.

"Shem, I forgot to ask you how my parents and my young brother are, how are they?" Adaline asked the question that Shem was most afraid of. He was afraid that he could not answer. And he was too afraid to offend Adaline with sad news that would clearly slice his heart. Shem was silent with lips tingling.
