tensions during dinner

The bedchamber of Kaida was very spacious and beautifully and luxuriously furnished. A large king-size bed was placed against the wall in the middle of the chamber. The chamber had its own space for soaking up, so she had taken the opportunity to refresh herself. Then she changed her outfit.

Near the window was a round table with a chair. Kaida went to the window. She saw that there was a door leading to the balcony. She stood on the balcony and watched the dim sky. She sighed. What am I doing here?

It was not yet time to eat so Kaida decided to take a nap. The bed was soft and delicious. I can get used to this, she thought when she closed her eyes.

Suddenly she got warm and it seemed like the whole chamber was on fire. She turned and looked into the eyes of her dragon. Her dragon roared and spat fire. The fire filled the room.

"It has been so long since I have seen you. You grew up to be a fine lady. Do you see that I have also become older? I feel stronger too! I am already awake and I see small dragons that have been awake for a while. My mother will unfortunately not wake up "

Kaida was happy to hear her dragon, but was also sad because she knew why the mother of her dragon would not wake up

"indeed, it has been 6 years to be exact. And you have also grown. You are now as big as your mother, I am amazed. You never guess where I am now! Because a promise I made 5 years ago I am engaged to the crown prince of the fox tribe "

Kaida had so much to tell her dragon, but the temperature in the chamber continued to rise. It was so hot now that she felt like she was burning. althought it was hot there were no burns on her body and the fire did not hurt her either.

"My lady this form of communication takes too much energy. I propose to perform the dragon dance during a ceremony "

Kaida wanted to hold the ceremony for a long time, but the dragon dance had to be done around a campfire of dragon fire. And that was not possible without a dragon. Since in the time of her mother the dragons were there, she didn' read about a other option in her mother's documents.

"My lady before I go I will give you a present."

At that moment, her dragon spit so much fire that the whole chamber was filled with fire. Kaida could not get away and gasped for air. Suddenly Kaida woke up. She looked around, had it been a dream?

She got up and walked to the window, the sky was dark now and there were stars to see in the sky. She looked at her reflection in the window and saw a necklace Aroud her neck.

Huh where did that necklace come from? It looked like the necklace that her mother always wore. But the moment she took her last breath that necklace disappeaerd. 

Just at that moment there was a knock on the door

"Ma'ma the food is served and the lord and lady would like it if you join them for the evening meal"

When Kaida entered the dining chamber she saw that the table was full of food, everything looked so nice! She saw that Rei was already sitting at the table.

"Where are the children"

"They are already asleep. The journey was very tiring for them. That's why I asked if they could eat earlier. As soon as they were in bed, they fell asleep."

Rei laughed when she said that.

Okata was at the head of the table, and Yumi was sitting next to him. Now Yumi did not bother to pretend she liked them. She did not looked at them either.

Okata smiled when she came in

"take a seat, I hope it will taste good. I would like to apologize again for the behavior of my wife. I hope that we can continue with a clean slate from here "

Yumi rolled with her eyes but said nothing.

Kaida laughed and sat down at the dining table

"what happened is already in the past. For me, nobody has to pretend, honesty and respect is what matter most. After all, we do not know each other's habits and the unknown is often misunderstood. "

Kaida felt that Okata was sincere and wanted to build a good relationship with them. Yumi, on the other hand, was not open for it. She could not think of the reason why, but she could not blame her either. Kaida would also want to know with what kind of ulterior motives another tribe entered the dragon tribe.

Everyone scooped up food and started eating. Suddenly Okata thought of the man who had introduced himself as Kyro. Where had he gone? It was clear that he was the husband of Rei. And since his name started with a K, Okata also knew that he was from the royal family. But since they left for the mansion, he had not seen him

"Is sir Kyro not going to accompanying us? He must also be tired of the long journey and he would also have a appetite "

Rei looked up and was surprised. Why would he join us? he was the first general after all. She had been able to persuade kaida with difficulty not to sleep in the camp. Plus, there was certainly no place to accommodate 400,000 warriors in such a short term.

"He is my first general and in my absence he will stays with the army that will be added to the army of the crownprince after the wedding"

Yes,thats true! Okata had forgotten that Kaida will also come with some of her warriors. They would strengthen  the military strength. Thus they would have warriors in the arny, who were loyal to both the king and the Queen

"So they have already set up camp? They had also been welcome to spend the night in the barracks. Since there is peace, they are not used that much "

"That is nice of you, but that is not necessary. The North is unknown territory for us so to get acquainted with it as soon as possible is better to stay in the woods and outdoors"

Yumi rolled with her eyes

"Oh well, it's not like you're not used to it. As children, you are also dumped in the forest and left to your fate "

she turned to Rei

" how long did your children held out in there? "

Rei raided her eyebrow

"My children have not yet reached the age of five so they have not entered the forest. And they are not left to there fate, our trainer are at a distance, but out of sight of the children. When they need to intervene, they do that. They are at least strong enough to survive a night in the forest, I'm sure you will not survived for an hour, and looking at your age..."

Rei and Yumi looked angry at each other. The atmosphere was very cold.

Did she call me weak and old yumi thought.

Does she think that we do not protect our children?  Rei thought

Okata cleared his throat.

"I think it's time we go to bed. Tomorrow will be a busy day for you. Kaida will meet her soon to be husband, may the gods bless your marriage. I wish you a good night's sleep "

he stood up and yanked Yumi up angrily and they left for their chamber.
