29 Zenda...She's....

Joy overtook my emotions and I was jumping around happily! Unintentionally I hugged the General. He was stiff all of a sudden that's when I became conscious of my unreserved action. I was embarrassed but in order to hide it, I actively held my hand up to give a high-five to the General. You know, sometimes, somethings happen all of a sudden that you won't have the major part of the memory of what had happened!

Swoosh... It happened so suddenly! I was in pain... It was a burning sensation. All I remember was lifting my hand up and then I was wincing in pain... The General he held me up and took me to a water source immediately and pour water on my hand. The cold water eased my pain... then one of the lieutenants came running towards us with a medicine box and handed it over to the General. He took the medicine box and moved my hand away from the water to apply medicine. It was burning pain again... My eyes welled up and I pouted like a child who got denied of candy. Seeing my actions the General smiled and he gently patted on my wound with a dry cloth. It hurts I said while tears began to roll down on my cheeks. Just bare it a little more, please. This medicine is the best for burns you won't feel pain again. The General said wiping my tears. Aww! I was touched by his gentleness. Other than my late parents nobody treated me like a child.... Everybody was in a constant demand of a queen out of me! I don't know I felt content when I saw how worried he was for me. Maybe he was the first one in the century to do that.

But how did this happen? I asked him while he bandaged my wound. Lady Leanor, you were attacked by a flaming arrow shot by Lady Zenda, luckily it only brushed you. The lieutenant said to me.

Who is Zenda? I asked with irritation. Zenda... She is...
