16. Capital city

"Wow!" I heard Arthur's voice. 

We just left the forest and then we saw our objective. 

We were looking at the capital city. We were still couple of hours of walking away from it, but we could see it clearly because of it's size. A castle so big, that it looks more like a mountain. It had a lot of white, pointy towers, and looked really beautiful. 

Where castle ended you could see walls that separated this castle from the city. 

"It really is big. Not how I remembered it." I said after looking at it. Somewhere there is the biggest mage's guild you can find in the known world. The place I want to be. 

"What will we do once we arrive there?" Morgana asked. 

It's not like we had a plan. We just wanted to go to the capital city. I know what I will do but they will probably want to split up. 

"I want to stay with master." Vyliana said proudly.

Well, it might be a problem if I turn back to normal. 

"If Iris will let me, I too would want to stay with her." Arthur joined the conversation. 

I think you might be a little surprised if you see my real self. 

"So, what you think about that "Iris"?" Morgana said teasingly but her face looked really serious. 

I knew why. It's not like I can lie to them for all eternity. If I want to be with them, I will need to tell them who I am, but it's hard. It's hard to think that person they like doesn't exist. 

"A lot of things can happen." I avoided the question and Morgana only looked at me. 

You don't need to worry. It's not like I wanted to deceive them or something like that. I just thought that we will get there and they will just leave me, but for some reason they don't want to. 

It's hard to understand them. Even after traveling with them for so long I can't say I know them. 

"Why do you wanted to get there master?" Vyliana asked while looking at the capital city. 

To become a 70 years old man. I can't tell her that. But if she will want to stay with me I will need to. Even if they won't undo the spell, I can't just lie to her. 

"Because of a spell." 

"What kind of spell?" Arthur asked me after listening to me. You just need to make things worse, don't you? 

"Maybe one day I'll tell you." 

"Why not now?" 

"Is this some kind of bullying?" I replied and he stopped. 

Kids are really curious these days.

"Just don't disappear without saying goodbye." Morgana said and smiled. Did she read my mind?
