CHAPTER 217 **A Time For Everything**

Matilda, upon seeing how that event was still haunting her dear disciple, she didn’t know what to do with herself!

She had gone without actual anger for little while now…

Clenching her hands, she wished that she could make both Felix and Cordelia feel better but…It was done…

After finding herself pregnant with another man’s child, Cordelia had wanted Felix to tell her off, to be angry or do anything but he hadn’t…He had told her to do as she wished…

In a fight, Cordelia had then decided, through spite, to keep the child and so…The child’s pregnancy became public knowledge…

Before she could stop anything, feeling regret over her choice, it was already something that was celebrated upon.

Felix had not stated that he liked her a lot, nor did he show any excess emotions upon anything that she did, but he still saw her often and did not take in another wife. They both obviously cared for one another but there was a wall there separating them.

Something had to be done!

Matilda had to fix this, somehow!

But…Didn’t she want to stay hidden? Didn’t she just want to do her job? Why would she want to put herself in the middle of something like that anyway!? It had nothing to do with her! They’d probably get mad at her and tell her to bugger off!

Matilda scolded herself, because she knew she had felt strongly about staying out of people lives, and then tried to move on, to find a number of all the Golden Heirs…

Nate had indeed done a good job of producing his lineage! What an arsehole!

It was like England with Scotland back on Earth!

He had visited the royal consorts and put his golden seed in them, to which his child would then be in line for the throne of that particular Haven!

Christian may have done something similar with one woman, where he got the Emperor to see his beloved Lavendar because she was pregnant, but Nate…He had done at least five Haven’s, and two of them had a direct chance to obtain the throne!

What a smart man! What an evil man!

Sadly, a couple of consorts had accepted him easily, which only made Matilda even more angry!

Nate had promised them a child and the Emperor to visit them, and they had agreed!

Humans…

Except, really, she knew that a woman’s life in these days there was not a lot of choice to be had. If they were an abandoned consort, who didn’t even want that life to begin with, then have someone offer both a male child of their own and the emperor to bestow a night with them…

Who was Matilda to state that it was so wrong of them? Perhaps they just wanted something to love? Or maybe they were sick and tired of being a nobody…Or lonely…Whatever it was, Matilda couldn’t stay mad at the woman who threw themselves at Nate and his proposition.

Nonetheless it seems that because of Nate’s greed and knowledge to take advantage of something and place certain things into his control, he had changed so many things now!

I guess someone had to think about it at some stage though, it was a pretty good plan, to place all your children to be the next lot of Emperors of Haven’s…It would help him out to obtain Golden Haven…

There were probably more problems to it, but it felt pretty cruel to determine all haven’s like this…

Why was it that sometimes Matilda felt so insulted to be human?

Why did she help them at all!?

These people deserve to be redone by the spiritual essence!

…We treat each other like crap!

Matilda could no longer look into the Golden Heirs at that current moment…

“Band…I mean Katherine…Are you…Hey!” Matilda put hands in front of Katherine’s eyes, and she turned.

Matilda eyed her, “Well? What ya doin?”

Katherine looked around quietly and shrugged, “I am more used to hiding and being called when needed.”

That was it…Straight to the point…

Actually, Matilda liked Katherine, she was basic, which is preferable in her eyes. “It’s ok, I’m glad you haven’t wondered off, yet!”

“How could I wonder off!” Katherine stated, almost like it was a pure evil thought!

“That’s not…Uh, don’t worry about it!” Matilda waved a hand away, to stop the thoughts going further.

This tale has been unlawfully lifted from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere.

“Princess, I will not leave you alone!” Katherine stated bluntly.

Matilda smiled and sat down again, having had to get up to get Katherine’s attention. “It’s Tilda! Now come, eat!”

“Oh, yes, of course!”

Matilda had to often be reminded upon why females were very different, because of Katherine. She was still getting used to obtaining her ‘monthly’s’.

Did Katherine remember that Matilda could read her mind? It didn’t appear so because it was common knowledge to Matilda that Katherine would remind herself often upon why she decided to change her gender…And she still did not regret it.

Will she regret if she were ever to give birth?

Matilda let out a noise to her sudden thought and tried to look normal…

Maybe he…she’ll never get that far anyway…

Sighing to the lost love for Katherine, Matilda found peace enough by not being reminded upon her own.

As a number of fifteen Golden Heirs and True Golden Heirs, that were of age, Sahara did indeed think the Amphitheatre was big enough.

Who cares about having a feast or a place of entertainment! If entertainment was added, they may never agree to anything!

Next was to make sure that a place could be sorted out for people to stay as it probably won’t be done in a day…And well, the place that she had made a long time ago was perfect for that, it just held other people in it at this point of time, that’s all…

So, Matilda had to either make the people leave or make another place…

Work work!

There was a time for everything!

The accommodation was being taken care of, the numbers were known…The place upon where the meeting, or whatever it was called, was done…

Oh, I can make the letter! Right!

In a happy type of way, Matilda got out some paper and ink. Once again, she had been able to procrastinate just a little bit longer!

It was either this or…Perhaps spend a bit more time getting used to their bodies! They had gotten back into doing exercises and stuff, perhaps they could…Do some sparring!?

It was just another thing that Matilda could possibly do that was ‘important’ and ‘maybe should be done beforehand’…

Anyway…So…How should I word this?

Actually, the letter to not only the Golden Heirs and True Golden Heirs, but to that of the emperors was not easy!

The wording for one had to be businesslike and formal, as it was an important event! There had to be respect and choice as well…

What if one or two didn’t want to become the next Golden Emperor!?

So, there was a lot to take into consideration!

‘To all Emperor’s of all current Haven’s and Golden Heir’s or True Golden Heir’s,

It is time to find our next Golden Emperor and unite all Haven’s with the Golden Bridge!

If any of you Golden Heir’s are interested in taking that step, then please come to Golden Haven within three months. It is in the best interested to each and every other Haven Emperor to be there too, so that a vote or decision can be made, so emperors too are to also travel to Golden Haven within the next three months.

A Golden Haven Amphitheater will be the place where the gathering of Haven Emperors and Golden Heirs will be held, and Golden Haven will also be able to accommodate up to four people of each invitation.

This invitation is not in jest and has indeed been given to all so that each of you will arrive on time!

Let us hope to toast to the new Golden Emperor and the Golden Bridge in just a few months’ time!

Follow the gold!’

That’ll do…

Matilda had spent way too much time thinking about this already. Due to the letter, she had also thought of trying to help those who might be in trouble by supplying some type of transportation for them and then she thought upon how it could be done…So ‘follow the gold’ was what that meant.

There was actually more to that too, which helped Matilda think that perhaps she didn’t even need to be seen in the flesh throughout this entire plan!

On the day that they all arrive, Matilda could place Golden words upon the amphitheater and perhaps some golden path, which would state the obvious on when it was time for them to start their…Meeting…

Right!? Good idea right!?

Yet, this idea might prove to be nothing at all…

Should I remove ‘follow the gold’?

With a number of envelopes, all with different names on them in front of her, Sahara took a deep breath in and sighed…

If she sent these out, that was it…Three months later there was going to be a meeting here!

Obviously, things may turn to shit straight away, by a few of them not taking this seriously.

But how could it not be taken seriously!? Even if it was a joke, I’d be interested to see who rocks up…If I were one of the ones invited…

Matilda sighed and knew that all emperor’s had to come…If just one didn’t come, that would not make this work!

Was there some other way that she could…

What about sum? Should she supply sum for them to help get them here!?

Even before she got these ‘extra’ powers, she had been able to create sum…Or was it after?

It was so long ago now that Matilda wasn’t even sure anymore…

So…Did she have to rewrite the note then? Stating that she would supply one black sum token to all that come willingly? Or something like that…

Putting her head from side to side, Matilda closed her eyes and wondered.

They are human after all, everyone loves money! Maybe one token wasn’t enough…Should I do two? Perhaps write as well that the sum was the Golden Haven investment upon this meeting?

It really sucked how she had to do this though, they were born in this position, and they get to gain just by rocking up to this place!? How was that fair to the common folk!?

Perhaps another type of extra then, besides that of sum?

Matilda knew that she could supply…

What about the stones! Those…What were they called again!? Spirit stones?

For a full minute Matilda had forgotten…

Nucleus! Yes, that’s it! What about some of those! At least they would help the academies out right!?

…That’s if the emperor’s or whatnot put them into the academies…

It was almost like she was back to square one. How could she help more then one person and still get them all here without forcing their hands, well, teleporting their bodies unwillingly!?

Putting her head down in surrender, Matilda nearly pulled out her hair!

“Dammit! I’ll have to go through it all over again!”

The unsent letters disappeared into her flesh ‘junk pile’ and Matilda pouted at Katherine. “All for the good of fucking mankind! It’s fine! I can do this, not a problem!”

Letting out a big sigh, Matilda got a new parchment out, while Katherine could only let out a slight chuckle.

Katherine felt a bit useless lately…All she had been able to do was help get the Amphitheater ready and the accommodation. Helping with other light duties wasn’t enough from keeping her from being a bit anxious about what was to happen. Even trying to understand the weaker sex and how much less she was able to do now was not enough to keep her from being distracted! Doing anything the princess asked is fine, making her body feel normal was fine, even accepting everything as is was fine…It was the potential meeting that would simply overlap everything else and make it smaller to this one thing!

What if One wasn’t ever going to show up!? What if I never see him again!?

“I’ll make sure he sees you, even from a far.”

Katherine looked at Matilda with widened eyes.

“I won’t interfere much more then that…” Matilda stated, looking right back at her…

Katherine didn’t speak a word, just nodding her acknowledgment upon what she said to her…But her thoughts supplied were of a happiness that made her shine with a smile…

So cute! I really hope it works out for them!
