chapter 26

__safia 

 safia breathe out * its so ..beautiful* susan added *its called dragon tooth* and as safia's eyes went wide with excitement Susan quickly add * but not an actual dragon's tooth, its just called that because its shaped like one and also as dangerous, the handle is made from a very rare tree in Talan, which makes the dagger very durable also super Sharp, can cut anything and everything* 

   the dragon tooth's handle is black in color with red and orange substance along it, which makes it resemble fire, and the blade itself is black in color and has a long line at the center, which at the tip of the blade forms a small circle, that is all connected to the handle, and the fire like substance moving as if alive and wanting to enter the lines.

   Susan said * this is a very special dagger, I'll let you figure out what exactly makes it special, take care of it well would you* safia replied *of course I will take care of it, thank you Susan* Susan smiled at smile.The king spoke out then *please, allow the servant to escort you to your chambers to rest, you've had a long journey after all* The two royal twins cutesy as two servants step out to escort them into the palace, before Susan climbs up the last stair she turns around and cutesy towards the people.

  The announcer shouted out *We welcome Prince Habib from the kingdom of fango! ( pronounce ango, the F is silent) known for their speciality in the cultivation of spices!*

 All eyes turn towards the kingdoms gate expecting to see carriages, but soon they all step back several foots away from the path, shocked and scared, A giant worm like look looking creature with black hard skin swoop into the kingdom, the entire area shook due to its heavy weight, the worm looking creature, called sand worms, came to a halt inside the the palace grounds, still in shock the people began to murmur among themselves not noticing when two carriages came in and stop behind the giant worm.

 The single person atop the sand worm jumped down from that great height call the sand worm, he look at the announcer with a displeased frown and corrected *we don't cultivate the spice we harvest it* snapping out if his sock state the announcer quickly bow an apologize *forgive me my prince I made a mistake, I shall correct it immediately*  standing up straight he loudly announced the prince again, this time making sure he said harvest and not cultivate, the prince smiled then tapped the sand worn twice, turning around the giant sand worn start towards the exits and quickly disappeared into the forest.

And only then the people let go of their breaths in relief.

 Prince Habib is a very tall and a bit muscular man, with sand blonde hair and striking blue eyes that seem to sparkle under the dim sun. He swept his bewitching eyes on the crowd, gave them a subtle nod then walked towards the royals of black moon.

 The prince wore black trouser, a loose black shirt that has puffy sleeves with silver lines at both side of the puffy sleeves, he wore a one shoulder brown cape that glides behind him like the wind, a pair of brown boots on his feets, and what looks like a star wars blade strap to his hips, he walks slow and elegantly, like the name his people  call him with, The desert prince.

    ( The kingdom of Fango is ruled by king Javan, and his three sons, Habib, Rahim, and Asad. The oldest, Prince Habib is the one who came while his two brothers stayed back home, not wanting to send his three hairs fearing it might be a trap, for he doesn't trust king Travis at all.

   the kingdom has a lot of desert that contains spice, by genetics and natural gift their blue eyes help them see clearly through the blazing desert, they used to use a large machine to harvest the spice, but then the sand worms appear and every time they try to harvest spice from the sand, the sand worms would attack them,

    so they came to the solution, the sand worms don't like the sound of machines, so they now used the same machine but making the sound water like, not like a machine, and came to peace with the sand worms.)

   king Travis spoke * prince Habib, we welcome you to black moon kingdom * Habib replied *thank you your majesty* they bowed in greeting to each other while safia cutesy, then the king added *and my sincerest apologies for the Royal announcers Silly mistake*, ( emphasis on the silly) prince Habib smile and answers

  *its alright your majesty, things like this happen often* king Travis nods and said * please, allow the servant to escort you to your chambers to rest, after all you've had a long journey*  Then prince Habib followed the servant inside the palace to his assigned chamber, along with all the people he came with. ( the prince did bring gifts of spice which the servant carried into the palace, he saw no need of presenting the gift himself, as a prince with honor to uphold)

   safia was starting to lose hope, two kingdoms had already gone in, and she saw no weak prince among them, now there's only 1 kingdom left, "but maybe that's where my luck is, I really hope so" safia thought, and in cue the announcer began.

    *we welcome prince Adidaya from the kingdom of linzia, known for their professional chiefs and heavenly delicious Cherry's* 

A set of two colorful carriages made their way into the palace, this time the people aren't shock or scared, the colorful carriages look adorable, as the carriage stopped, the first open, servants and a few guards climbed down, then the second carriage open, a slim boy step out, he wore big purple silk trousers  that from afar resemble skirts, a white long sleeve shirt and a long purple silk cafe, a white turban atop his head that has a long purple feather sticking at the top and his wavey ash black hair could be seen peeking under the turban.

    the prince has a bit of a round face with Sapphire eyes, long eyelashes and perfectly medium eyebrows. With his small almost pink lips, he is tall but not muscular, in other words, he's absolutely adorable.

  Fidgeting with his fingers the prince slowly walks towards the royals, safia and king Travis.

  ( the kingdom of linzia is ruled by king jalara and queen haseena, with their only son prince adidaya, their kingdom has two sides, the front is very close to the ocean, and to get to their kingdom you must travel through ship, while the back has a mass land scape perfect for cherry trees to grow, and of course their professional chiefs that make the best of the sea food they have, and also a gazillion delicious way to use their cherries.

     but prince adidaya didn't travel by ship to get here, he used a back way only for royals and travel on land, which is faster, because if he were to travel through ship it would at least take him 4 days to reach his destination.

   And now, on to the issue their kingdom has, which is a bunch of outsiders entering their kingdom and stealing their possessions, thiefs, con men and women. The royal house is trying their best to protect the kingdom from such intruders, by adding more security to the borders,  the number of guard's patrolling, and more, but they could only do so much.)

     prince adidaya finally reached the royals of black moon, the king is not interested in him so much that he turn to address Anthony, so safia spoke with a wholehearted smile,

    * prince Adidaya, we welcome you to black moon kingdom* the nervous prince answers * thank you my princess, and uh..you can just call me adi* safia smile and said * okay adi, you can call me just safia too* 

    Adi seems to relax a little talking to safia, giving him the courage to give her the gift he brought * i..um have a gift for you* Among the people he came with, a boy comes forward and hands him a small box, and Adi gives it to safia.

     she opened the box and saw pluffy red Cherry's, she immediately took one and pop into her mouth, she spoke between bites *wow adi, this are amazing, thank you* Adi smiles, and no longer looks nervous, safia wouldn't normally do this, but seeing how nervous the prince is, she did that to help him and it worked, but her father who has been standing besides her was very furious, fuming even.

      the king decides to speak this time, he said to adi * prince adidaya, thank you for the cherrys, now please follow the servant to take you to your chambers, after all you've had a long journey* the prince replied * oh it really wasn't a long journey from my side, if I had come through the sea then that will a long journey, hehe* the king gave a tight smile and bacon the prince to follow the servant,  adi said to safia as he follows the servant * see you later safia* 

     and as Adi left, the king, trying to control his anger for the sake of the public eyes, spoke to safia in a hush tune * really, that was very unlady like behavior you've demonstrate, and that too in public*  safia just smiles and replied *relax father, I only did that to help the prince feel a little at peace, and look, the public seems to get it*  her father looked towards the people and saw them all nodding their heads in agreement, some were even praising the princess for having such a great sense of humor.

    the king just huff and said * fine, I'll let it go this ones, but don't do it again* safia answers * with how nervous adi is, it's a no promises* her dad looked at her and she shrugged, 

   Feeling the chill safia spoke * dad let's get back in, it's getting quite breezy out here* her dad replied * not yet, there is still one kingdom left* Safia thought "huh, one kingdom left, oh no..could it be.." her thoughts were cut short as the announcer announced.

   *we welcome prince Liam from iron city, also known as the modern kingdom, known for their speciality in making advance technology* 

  and the people starts to loudly murmur among themselves

 " what'

"isn't he our enemy"

'yeah what is he doing here"

"he probably just came to ruin the ball"

"of course that's why he's here"

"an enemy will always remain an enemy" 

   Safia looked towards her father for an explanation, while Anthony smiled.
