Part -1

This is a story of love, told throughout the world of Gaia to remind every one of its inhabitants of the importance and powers love has and that there are times when letting everything go is a necessary sacrifice to fulfill love.

The story begins in the kingdom of Jude, inside the palace of the king. It has been 14 years since the birth of the 4th Prince and it was time for him to be assigned an arranged meeting with the daughters of the neighbouring kingdoms for possible future marriage which would lead to an alliance with the neighbouring kingdoms. Inside the throne room, the King calls for his chief maid who arrived as soon as she could.

“Cerilus! Go call the 4th Prince to meet me as soon as possible.” ordered the King.

“As you wish, your Majesty.” abided the chief maid, Cerilus.

As ordered by the King, instead of ordering the maids below her, Cerilus herself went to the 4th Prince’s room. Arriving at the door of his room, she saw a maid just leave from inside. Realizing that the 4th Prince had just woken up, she slowly walked to the door and knocked on it.

*Knock knock “Your Highness, his Majesty has called for you.” said Cerilus.

“Yawn* Okay, tell my father that I will come as soon as I can.” replied the 4th Prince.

“I will, your Highness.” said Cerilus as she left the 4th Prince to freshen up.

Meanwhile inside his room, the 4th Prince who had just woken up was changing his clothes. Unlike the older Princes, he did not like getting dressed by the maids as he immensely valued his privacy.

“Argh, just woke up and already my father is calling for me.” said the 4th Prince, quickly dressing himself since it was not just his father, but the King’s calling.

Soon after getting dressed, he immediately went to the throne room. A few moments later, he reached the throne room where his father, the King was sitting on his throne waiting for him.

“Welcome my son, did you sleep well?” asked the King.

“Yes father.” replied the 4th Prince.

“Good...good. The reason I called for you here as soon as you woke up is because of an important matter, both for the future of this kingdom and you.” said the King.

“O..okay.” said the 4th Prince; hearing such serious words from his father immediately woke him up from his post sleep tiredness.

“Five days from now, we will start arranged meetings between you and the children of our neighbouring kingdoms. It is of utmost importance for you to take these meetings seriously as it will affect our future relations with them.” said the king.

“It’s not just a meeting between the children of two royalties is it?” asked the 4th Prince.

“Ah, you caught on quickly my son. You are indeed right. These meetings can also be considered as possible engagement meetings since you will be meeting with the two princesses of the kingdom of Daria and the kingdom of Mormon; both for a week. During these two weeks, it is essential that you develop good relations with them whether you personally dislike them or not.” said the King.

“Aaaah, okay father.” replied the 4th Prince, in a tiresome tone.

“Look my son. I know that you do not like to engage yourself in such things but this is necessary for you, not just in creating good relations with the kingdoms of Daria and Mormon but in creating support from the nobles which will help you earn the throne in the future.” said the King.

“I understand.” replied the 4th Prince.

“Good, now that will be all. You can now exit the room.” said the King.

Just as the 4th Prince left the throne room, the Chief Advisor entered.

“Ah come in Chief Advisor, there are a few things I would like to discuss with you.”

“What is it, your Majesty?”

“How are my other children doing?”

“Well your Majesty, they are all doing well but among the three of them I would say that the 2nd Prince is faring the best. Him and the princess of Alvagi seem to be developing a close relationship due to their similar hobbies of painting.”
