~~~(POV: Cera Adamo)~~~
~~~(Location: The Palace in Greshina, Elven Kingdom)~~~
~~~(Time: 12:10 PM)~~~
Helda and I discussed getting an airship here, and she'd be willing to do it. It'll take a bit of time, and I'm wanting to get out of this Kingdom today. "Not everything will cater to my needs... Helda and her allies are too busy shifting the Elven People. They've announced that the Elven Kingdom is free and are having to deal with a lot of people..." They basically have to fill the power vacuum.
She's given me a timeframe of around two days, and even if we leave early, it's still coming. A bunch of leaders from different Kingdoms are coming here. Apparently, King Jackson from Zenith is on his way too. My involvement with the liberation of The Elven Kingdom has drawn much attention, and it's safe to say that leaders are coming to Helda because she has a connection to me.
This is a factual and accurate statement. Helda has become a good friend of mine. Along with Melimora. The rest are what I'd call acquaintances. The empty halls leading to the room where my family is a little haunting... The solid gold is stained with clotted blood, and it's a darkish hue between red and black. The battles in these halls were brutal.
Speaking of battles, the Elven Army and its military leaders have unconditionally surrendered to Helda and her... Council is the best way to describe it. The door to the room is quickly approaching. I'm relieved not to hear anything coming from it. No screaming or yelling, to be exact. My hand lands on the door, and I gently push it open.
My eyes land on everyone sitting around a table and having a casual conversation. My mom and Sally are sitting next to one another. Quietly talking, and I'm glad she's being open with Sally. Everyone notices me and quiets down as I make an approach. "I've got good news and bad news." In my opinion, there is bad news.
To others, there is nothing other than good news. "The good news is we have an airship coming here and is transporting many Kingdoms and Royalty. The bad news is we have to wait for two days for it to get here." Hailey and my dad are the only ones that show a sliver of anger at the prospect of waiting two days. My mother seems to be extra happy with it.
Knowing her, she's going to use this time to try and catch up. That's not a problem, but I'm not a big talker or storyteller. "Alright, looks like we're waiting two days then. As much as I want to leave now, we can't all fit on you for a lift to Avalon." Dad is the first to speak, and there is agreement from everyone besides Hailey.
Mainly because Jasmine needs to pass whatever trials she has to become a Player. "That's all well and good, but Jasmine and I need to figure out how to make her a Player. So we're leaving today." If there were a possibility for the sound of glass shattering from Mom's face, it would. "Don't give me that look. We can message each other now." She's right.
Our maps have been restored to full functionality. Meaning we can mark locations on our maps and see friends on them no matter how far away. "I'm not going to ask you to stay, Hailey... It just sucks that after all this chasing, I'm about to part with another one of my children so soon..." Mom has taken our absence hard, but it's within the range I expected.
When you live for your kids, and only your kids. Once they're gone and no longer need you, it's a hard spot to be in. I couldn't put it into words since I've never gone through it, but it's very hard for mothers. "Thanks, mom. Remember, you'll be able to message me any time and see me on the map. No matter how far away." That helps mom a little, but not much.
I make my way over to the table and take a seat next to Sally, and I know that it's time that I give my mom some attention. "Okay, it's time to ask. How in the hell did you guys even find us?" This entire situation of them finding Hailey and me seems nearly impossible. Not without some magical item or a cheat. Which in itself is impossible.
She smiles and opens her Inventory. Pulling out a strange-looking rock. All of a sudden, a hologram pops out of it and shows a map and path to us. "We bought this from a Player Store. It was designed to find blood relatives using blood magic. It led us to you guys. Made by Players." Talk about an impressive invention for its time. Too bad it's obsolete now.
~~~(POV: King Jackson)~~~
~~~(Location: Airship, Leaving Capital City Zenith)~~~
~~~(Time: 12:25 PM)~~~
Tessa stands next to me as we enjoy the balcony of our suite. This is a Royal Airship, and it's heading to all the Kingdoms that want to go to Greshina. We have a lot of stops, but it's something we have to deal with. The company that owns airships is independent. Meaning they don't have to listen to me or other rulers. Hence why I have no control.
The puffy clouds ride the sides of the airship, and the view is something to die for. To think that Slayer Zern can just flap his wings and get a view any time he wanted. Amelia Zern wanted to come with us, but she's too busy developing the land that we won in our war with Bellvia. "Do you think he'll recognize me?" My wife has a voice filled with humor.
She's changed a lot due to the feather from his wings that he gave to her. It's given her many powers and even more attention. Her hair has changed to completely white, and she looks far more youthful than she did before. Her skin sparkles like freshly fallen snow, and her eyes are bluer than the Heziz Sea. She's quite the sight to behold.
I don't know exactly what Slayer Zern has been up to, but Liberating the Elven People is something that I didn't expect. No doubt it was from Sally. She's a good girl, and she has a powerful grip on Slayer Zern. That could be something dangerous if not controlled. "That's not something we should be concerned about." In truth, what we should be concerned about is our people becoming Players.
There are many things that have changed since The Player's arrival in our world, and none of them have been for the better. While I'm still apprehensive about all this, it could be something that my Kingdom can exploit and grow stronger from. "I know what you mean... I'm worried too..." She understands more than any other woman could.

Sally is a sweet and kind girl, and she's growing on me. I'm proud of my son... More than he'll ever know... He's accepted her and loves her despite all the horrible things she's had to endure... Most men would turn away from her due to the things she suffered. Thinking her less of what she is. Cera has looked past all that and seen Sally for who she is.
I can only hope that Marcus becomes a man like Cera, and it's not a bad thing if he doesn't. Cera is a hard one to follow, and he's broken all expectations that I've ever had of him. "Why don't we get something to eat before you leave, sis." Cera turns his attention to Hailey, and she smiles. It's been a while since we had any good food either.
