Securing The Capital Part Three
Parith…
When Alicia arrived in Parith she was met with the same familiar scene she saw a few years ago when she first came to this place. The city was as calm as it was the first time. There was no sign of any panic due to the war. But that would soon all change. She made haste and quickly made her way to Dalton's estate.
She met with no resistance when entering the estate. The guards there had remembered her from her first visit and quickly announced her arrival. As soon as she entered the estate Ela came running up and embraced her: "Alicia! Oh! you have grown so big!"
"It has been a long time." Alicia smiled warmly as she hugged Ela. Ela always had that motherly feel to her.
"I heard you became the Third Princess of Alastine!" Ela said as she cupped Alicia's cheeks in her hands getting a good look at her.
