Chapter 10: the past of the queen, part 2
Emarin Kotoi
It was a guard of the palace who took me inside the dome as he found me tied. The king was kind enough to leave me being treated there. When I woke up, I was confused and very weak.
The young Emarin is looking around in the multiple corridors trying to find her way. Someone comes behind her.
Akito Kotoi
Can I ask you what you are actually doing? (looking severely)
Emarin Kotoi
(turning to him) I was just trying to find my way back.
Akito Kotoi
You are the young lady the guards took up.
Emarin Kotoi
My name is Emarin... Kaede Emarin. And you... if I can ask the question.
Akito Kotoi
I am the prince of the Koto Village. I am prince Kotoi Akito.
Emarin Kotoi
(bowing to him) I hope is not mistaken by me to present my respect to you just now. (speaking respectfully)
The king walks in. He is followed by two guards and 3 servants, one of them holding a bag.
King kimura
You are the young lady we took at the river. You were poisoned, I hope you are find now. I am the king of this village. It may not be as large as the place you are coming from but at least we got some comfort for you to be in good health.
Emarin Kotoi
I am very honored by your presence and kind attention my king.
King kimura
To tell you the truth, we are not expecting to allow you to go since our village is supposed to stay secret. I was thinking of locking you up to dead but when we took you up, you seem to be the victim.
Emarin Kotoi
I'm not allowed to go 😰. But my family, my friends, all my ambitions.
King kimura
It must be painful but we cannot do else way. This bag is yours I think, we took it with you.(asking the servant to give her)
Emarin Kotoi
(inspecting the bag) all my things and stuff are wet, my phone is even broken.
(inspecting again) the only thing remaining is my watch.
Emarin Kotoi
I was honestly counting on my phone GPS to go, I don't remember my way back but my phone is dead. As I'm left with no choice yet, I will stay.
Fumio Kotoi
You finally loved each other.
Emarin Kotoi
Yes sweetie. I love your father and he loves me. Did I told you that at that time counselor Mitsuko was part of the servants in the palace. He felt in love for me.
Emarin Kotoi
I evidently said no. But at that time he was a bit handsome. even though your father was the most handsome of all🥰
Fumio Kotoi
I will tell daddy that you are speaking of other men(laughing)
Hinami Kotoi
I'm happy to see that now you are not so sorry by that. Those ones who tied you up I mean.
Fumio Kotoi
Did you knew them?
Emarin Kotoi
No my dears, all I know is that they were certainly looking for the Dama and Koto Village.
Even though,now I know the existence of the villages but never will I say it to someone. even if we meet again they will not receive any information from me.
Emarin Kotoi
My lips are sealed. And I want you to do same okay? You must not tell anyone about the villages,it must be kept secret. If you know you can't keep it secret, you better stay.
Hinami Kotoi
We mean, yes we can keep it secret.
Fumio Kotoi
That is true. We can keep it secret.
The two princesses
We promise
Emarin Kotoi
I love you my dears. Okay, we have again your attires to select for tomorrow after that, every body to bed. We have 3 days of road awaiting us.
