Chapter 14 - Golden city

"How do you know of my world?,maybye you truely are special Alice"

"Let my hand linger and show me your world"

Her warm hand graced his from her healing,just as before she could see his thoughts however this time it was clear.

Alice questions if his actions were neccesary,would time alone bring the world to it's climax she thought.Why does he need to unify the world to make his dream?.

They continued towards the golden city of Limveil.The golden rooftops shined as the sun arose.Lendell couldn't ingore the kings action,he really was going to kill me he thought.Even with his doubts they continued,Artorious thought of how he would infilltrate the city to murder them all.

He had told Rayleigh the human and Levvis the beast man of his plans,they supported their king,if the stories of the elven race were true the world would be a better place without them.He refrained from telling Alice.

As the pallace got closer the entrance became clear,a fencegate covered in gold guarded the city.A dark trail shot in the sky,elves had to use other methods rather then the traditional bell to notify it's people.

The guard shouted "HE'S BACK IT'S LENDELL"

"Im sorry im unable to guide you any further" said Lendell.

"You inncolent fool,I am the king of the worlds greatest empire"

"It's not out of choice,I have been exiled"

Lendell Tymish was once a knight to the elven king.

He served as the head of the kings guard,a highly respected position.

"Let me speak with your king" shouted Artorious loudly to be heard,not out his rage.

The news was quickly relayed to their king,he was intruged and also confused what the King of the Ceaser empire had business with him.

"Let him in" said the king,echoed across the throneroom.He sat on the gold throne,surronded by the glisting walls lined in gold .

Once his message had reached thw guards the four of them we let in,Lendell had to stay behind.As the golden gates opened before them the guards aimed the weapons towards him,with a hatefull glare.

Rayleigh and Levvis led the king and Alice.Artorious sensed something wrong in this land of gold,as he walked in busy streets surronded by these elves he hated.

The city was silent.The four could hear their own heartbeat in the silence,it was if the lost there hearing.

"Why aren't they speaking,are they scared of us?" Asked Alice quietly.

"Shhhhh" the two gurads continued escorting them through the crowd of staring citizens.

After walking in the silent city they had arrived at their destination,it was like a palace out of a tale, a golden palace.It felt different from the rest of the city,faint sounds could be heard.

The two guards opened the heavy doors of wood.Sounds could be heard coming from castle,it reached the surronding elves however it was in pleasure,not the usual pain.

It was unlike anything the four had ever heard.

"What is that" said the king,the maids inside guided them towards the source of the sounds,their ears twitched in bliss.The sounds got louder, voices could now also be heard.The high tones mixed with the low entranced the group as the headed closer.The voices grew louder,entangeling with the symnphony, it was in a dialect infamiliar to them however it strangely resonated with them.

More unknown sounds joined in as their journey to the source was almost complete.Although the king was skepticle of the sound,he couldn't dissmiss it,he thought to himself whatever this sound is it is worthy to be in his world.

"Perhaps this is magic" said Alice

"Your one to talk" said Rayleigh under his breath

The king let out a subtle laugh."Shhhhhh" the maids directed at the group scolding them.At least the sound was near. Two big doors stood beetween them and the elven king,they were made out of a dark squishy material,formed from squares.

Alice walked towards them curiosly,she poked the mysterious texture.Sounds escaped through the doors gap.The doors opened before them,pushing Alice into the wall along with them.The sound reached it's peak,voices roaring,people fiddling with mysterious items.

Artorious was scared,as the doors opened and the sounds got louder.Are those weapons,do they know of my plan thought Artrorious."no thats making the sound" he looked at the people fiddling with their items.

The sound faded out slowly dwindeling with each person becoming mobile.

"Welcome,Your highness" said the man atop the throne.

"This is what we call music my friend"
