Going North

On the border of the South.

"Are you ready to go?"

Rei stood next to Kaida and looked at her. Rei had tied a cloth in front of her and a baby was sleeping there. Next to her stood a boy from about three years with dark red hair and dark eyes. He looked just like his father.

Kaida sighed and looked at the landscape. She is going to miss the south. The south where the sun always shone, the forests where the trees reached high in the sky. She had never been to the north and did not know what to expect.

Her father and Kyro arrived. Kyro had a girl from about two years old in his arms. The girl had black hair and dark eyes. except the hair colour of her mother, she mainly resembled her father. When the girl saw Rei she jumped from his arms and ran towards her

"mama"

Kyro walked to Rei and gave her a kiss on her forehead. Then he turned to Kaida

"Everything is finished and my men are ready to leave".

Rei and kyro married two years after the war. Whithin a year of their marriage, Rei had given birth to a healthy boy Kenji.

This was a sign that the gods had blessed their marriage. The next year the welcomed their Daughter Kimi, and six months ago she gave birth to a son Kaito.

Kaida looked at Rei and Kyro

"are you sure you are going? It is no longer necessary that Rei is my personal maid. She is now the princess of your dragons tribe. Plus since your father retired who is going to lead your tribe "

Rei angrily looked at Kaida

" you know that in our tribe there is no greater privilege than serving the main family. In addition, your father remains the king of all dragon tribes. It is not as if kyro leaves them without someone who can lead them."

The king stood behind Kaida and put a hand on her shoulder.

"I know it is difficult to leave your homeland. I just had to leave my tribe for your mother. But I believe in you and I think you can handle it. And watching the natural phenomena in the south the dragons will awaken quickly. Your mother would have been proud of you."

There were indeed signs that the dragons would soon wake up. The earth was shaking and the sky was crying. Kaida had come to understand that it was not just about how much power you possessed to become the mother of all dragons, but that you had to be a leader, you had to know your strength and weaknesses and be strong in your beliefs.

This has been taught to her over the years with ups and downs. And no one could bring her down at this point. She was not only older but also wiser.

When Kaida said her goodbyes to her father and nine brothers and sisters, she climbed into the wagon and left for the north. She preferred to sit on a horse but kyro insisted that Rei and Kaid travel comfortably. Within two days they would arrive at the fox tribe of Okuri.

"Auntie why do so many men go?"

Kenji sat next to Kaida and looked out the window. Behind the wagon there was an army of warriors.

Kaida stroked his head.

"With the marriage also comes the power of the crown princess's army. At the end of the war I and each of my general had an army of 200,000 men. We can not always depend on our parents' army. Unfortunately, we can only take 100,000 men from each of us."

Kaida wanted to continue talking, but she saw that Kenji looked at her confused.

Rei laughed

"how can you still not deal with children. You are the oldest of ten children "

Kaida sighed. Let me go to sleep because it takes too long. The wagon is really going to slow us down. If we would ride a horse, we would be there within a day. She closed her eyes.

When she closed her eyes she got so hot that it seemed like she was on fire. She opened her eyes and looked straight into the eyes of her dragon. Her dragon roared loudely and kaida was startled.

Rei looked at her.

"You sweating all over! you know how many times I've tried to wake you up. You slept all day. We are almost at the fox tribe in the Northwest. Okuri arranged for us to stay there"

Kaida did not understand. How can I have slept a whole day? It seems as if I had not closed my eyes for more than a few minutes. How is it that I am so tired when I have slept the whole day?

Kaida looked around, the north is so different from the south. The climate was different, there were few forests. You could call them a park at most. Colorful flowers grew along the road. Some ze had never seen before.

The village looked very different from her village. The houses were big. Most striking in the village was the mansion. It was big and luxurious.

In the south they only had longhouses. Kaida longhouse was large but it did not look luxurious. You can not take your luxury to the afterlife.

Hmm if they think about it the houses are only used to sleep. The dragon tribe ate their meals together in the square, soaked together in the lake.

A man with gray hair came to greet them. He looked like Okuri but he was not as tall as him and had a softer appearance. He was in his late forties

"My name is Okato, it is an honor to welcome you. A friend of my brother is a friend of mine. You must be tired of the journey. If you will follow me"

Kaida nodded

"nice to meet you Okata. It was indeed a long journey, thank you for your hospitality."

Together with Rei and the children Kaida followed Okata.

They walked towards the large mansion. The streets were busy and everywhere they walked flowers were thrown. The people of the fox tribe cheered as they walked through the streets.

They knew that Kaida would become their Queen. And despite his cold personality, the crown prince Huli was loved by his people. If it was not for his appearance it was for his victories in the war.

Rei walked beside Kaida and looked her eyes out. The flowers that were thrown were so beautiful. Kenij ran towards them and laughed happily.

"Mommy look at all the beautiful colors"

Kaida picked up a flower. The color of the flower reminded her of her mother. She had never seen a flower like that before. It was the color red and it shape was beautiful.

"You like roses?"

Okata looked at the rose that Kaida held

"My wife also likes beautiful red roses. Here in the North, grow roses of all different colors.Personally, I think the white roses are the most beautiful "

Kaida looked at the rose in her hand.

"Oh, it's called a rose, I think it's beautiful. They do not grow in the south "
