Are You Ready For Your Enlightenment? [Part 2]

“Are you ready for your Enlightenment?”

The Princess’ words echoed inside Hecate’s head, making her feel as if the gears inside of her head were starting to turn.

“Wait, I don’t understand,” Hecate said. “Why are you doing this? Why are you making me feel confused?”

Princess Ramona smiled faintly before looking at the sea.

“When you were born, the one who took care of you for the first year of your life was Queen Helewynn of the Mangrave Forest. She was the ruler of the Griffin Court,” Princess Ramona said softly. “She taught you how to read and write, but all her teachings all came natural to you as if you already knew how to do them.

“Arts, sciences, manners, etiquettes—you mastered them all in a span of a year, surprising everyone else except her. After all, she believed that it was only a natural thing to happen because you… were special.”

Princess Ramona raised her finger and tapped the stars in the sky as if rearranging them to suit her needs.
