Watching her use her abilities was fascinating but it had a touch of maturity in it far more than it was when they met before. He watched her slowly succumb to sleep , he touched her dirty pale white hair and almost turned it into ash . There was this sense of protection that gnawed at his deepest and darkest parts of him but he knew somethings were meant to be done by women . Although he let his own hair be short length he didn't care about the prestige he had to carry within him . Letting her hair fall back to her cheeks ,he stared outside the carriage watching the trees disappear and appear with the wind. He only wondered how he could make her identity hidden and safe . Once people were to find her and about her clan then they'd do anything make her a vessel or tool.
Leaning back on the seat. He too closed his eyes and drifted to sleep , the carriage became hotter, while he was asleep, he did that cause he was scared she would fall ill. But she made it more cooler, it was like a warm breeze,smiling a little he let her have her way . By the time they arrived at the castle ,she had completely drifted to complete sleep. He had to carry her sleeping form princess style in his arms ,her head rested on his chest. Servants flocked around him asking if he needed relief but he refused them. This was his moment to be something other than a crown prince right ? " No need. Get bath water ready and some syrups for flue and any other illnesses, make sure the robes are cotton and warm silk . Every shade of color there is ,and Esza don't tell my parents until I ask you to say so . Inform the others as well."he said calmly and the servant ,nodded thier head taking orders as they were.
While Theodore let the girl with him be attended by servants and not him, he would care less about that now. The way his friend acted shocked him which was why he didn't possess any emotional compatability to care. Meanwhile in Ryun arms Akia only snuggled more into his chest, this made him stop for a moment cause he thought that he was going to wake her up but shs only snuggled closely, smiling softly. He carried her to his chambers , when he got there female servants had already filled the tub with warm water. "Are you going to bathe the lady , your highness?"a maid asked and he thought for a while. Wouldn't she be scared of him after she finds out that he bathed her ? Or would that ruin her image of her savior? "This can be done by a women, bathe her and make sure she is clean. I'll be in my room."he orded while excusing himself to leave.
The servants did as told, bathing Akia ,Ryun paced back and forth in his room. When were they going to be done? Had she woken up already ? As he asked himself those questions a gushing wind blew across his face and that's when he knew that she was awake. The air filled with wild floral flowers and rain ,earthy yet wild and untamable. Soon the doors to the bathhouse swinged open ,Akia dressed in a floral dress walked out, her once dirty white hair now pure white and straight. Her green eyes ,scanning the room even though she couldn't see. She bowed infront of him . "I don't know how to thank you for your help and care. " she said softly . Gently putting his hand on her shoulder ,he made her stop bending . "You can thank me in many ways. By being my personal healer and in exchange for that we find a way to make you see ."he proposed and she flinched slightly out of shock .
"Huh?"she gasped. She knew that no one would just help her , he wanted something in return however now she had no right to be picky and bold. He saved her, Ryun could see the way her jaw went locked ,she was thinking , that's good if he was to keep the last descendant of the Jung clan alive and ready to use whenever trouble needed so then he should start seeing how far she can go now or else the other empires would take her and use her for nothing more than power . He thought to himself, especially the northern kingdom . He was the reason why the Vostren clan was still weakening till this day and he heard that thier king was on a journey to find the humane cure for him . If only he was that petty then he would kill her or him before he could get his hands on her but he needed thier power regardless with the new mishaps that have been happening in his kingdom.
"Then I will be at your service, my lord ." Akia said breaking his trail of thoughts. And he smiled ,if only she knew how much power she has,then she wouldn't even be kneeling infront of him now at mercy. But he knew that she wasn't that kind of human ,better yet trouble. He will train her to her best, the last Jung descendant will live to strive until he wills so or if she chooses to do so. There were many more days ahead, a servant came with medicinal herbs for her to drink, she sniffed them and shook her head . "I can't drink the roots of an unsprouted tree , posion ash tree need to fully bloom to be consumed. " she said pushing the medicine from her lap . "If you have Tribes Ash then I can heal faster with that ."she continued to say. The maid was dumbfounded same way as Ryun was ,"What ?" Ryun asked her and she smiled softly,"My power allows me to sense which plant or herb is suitable for me. Or any man kind , it takes skill and years of practice, my lord ."she said softly. The wind blew again he way and he coughed ,she only smiled . Ah now he knows what she was talking about.
