Exiting
the room, I walk down the passageway towards the ship’s cabin. Looking at the
familiar walls, I flinch. It’s like my prison. Being a king never even registered
in my mind on Earth. I thought I was a no one, but I had freedom. On this ship,
I’m someone but I’m confined to this ship. Seeing the door at the end of the
hall automatically activates my telekinesis, pure habit moves my mind to do
this action, and the door opens.
There’s
a lone person in the cabin of the ship. He’s
a mentor, friend, and my protector. I know him by a different name now that I’m
king, but his role in my life didn’t change. “Hello, Elias,” I said, making my
presence noticed.
“Hello,
my Lord,” Elias replied to me. His hair, like mine, has grown down to his chin.
His goatee has turned into a full short beard.
“You
know I don’t like it when you call me that. It’s too formal for a friend,
Elias,” I coolly replied to him.
He
grinned and turned back to the endless black in front of us. Stars twinkled
ahead, welcoming us into the vast unknown.
Duval’s out there, my kingdom’s out there. Only the future knows what’s
in store for me. How much blood shed will there be? How many allies will I lose?
“There
it is!” Elias suddenly shouted. I looked to him, he was pointing at the
darkness ahead of us. I followed his finger and saw a small sphere in the
distance. I squinted trying to focus on my homeland.
“Duval,”
I murmured quietly. So much pain will be over. I can flit; I can focus on
reclaiming my inheritance that was stolen from me. Rebecca and Kaila will be so excited.
Necromancer will be released within the next few days. Keep an eye out for more sneak peaks!
Until next time,
Luke
