~~~(POV: Saliandra Orvello)~~~

~~~(Location: The City of Meldro, The Kingdom of Avalon)~~~

~~~(Time: 2:15 PM)~~~

Cera is somewhere near Zenith at the moment, and I hope that he gets whatever he's doing done fast. I'd love to have his help with searching through Meldro City, but I'm on my own for now. The hardest part is I don't even know what my father looks like.

I only have his name. Zarmade Oryzox, firstborn prince of The Elven Kingdom, and my father. A person that was banished from his home by his own mother. My mother fell pregnant with his child, and that wasn't the plan my Grandmother, Queen Oryzox, had.

Zarmade is all I know regarding my father. All I know is his name... It's going to be difficult to find him, but I can't help wondering what he's been up to.

Maybe he's started a new family, and left the life he had behind him... Maybe he's alone, keeping away from attention and trouble... It's hard to think about it...

It's not his fault for what's happened to me all my life... But I can't help blaming him for the life I've had... He's my father... He's supposed to protect me from the bad things in life...

"Young lady... Would you like to have your future revealed? It might bring up your spirits."

My walk down the street is interrupted by the voice of an old woman. I turn and see the owner of the voice, and she smiles as I see her. If she were a Player, she wouldn't look like this. Meaning she's chosen to stay the way she is.

"I don't know... Is that even real? This feels more like a scam than anything..."

She chuckles as I stop and don't hold back on my thoughts. My old woman is what's referred to as a fortune teller, and someone that makes a living off telling people's fortunes to them...

"Why don't you come into my tent, and we can get started. If you're not satisfied with the results, then I won't charge you. Sound like a scam now?"

That's an approach to business that I've never heard of before. I don't see the harm in doing so. She leads me into her tent, and we sit down at the table. She smiles at me as she reaches out her hand for me to take.

"What I need is for you to channel your feelings and emotions into me. And also remember the best times of your life, and when you've felt the safest."

Instead of arguing, I just do as she asks, and I close my eyes and think about the things she wants me to think about.

"Hmm... Ahh... Yeees..."

As I open my eyes, I see her eyes closed. She lets go of my hand and places her hands on her crystal ball.

"You're searching for a man... One much older than you... Someone that should've been familiar, but isn't..."

Wow... She's really good... How could she know any of this? Maybe she has a special Class that allows her to do these sorts of things.

"This man isn't someone that you love... But more resent... However, I feel a deep love for another... A young one... An Angel in your eyes..."

Cera literally is an Angel... But she wouldn't know that Cera is my boyfriend. It seems that all she can do is see what I've given her. This has been an interesting experience, and she doesn't look like she's done yet.

"The older man you're looking for... I can see him... He's living in a nice home outside of Meldro to the East... The young man you're waiting for is with another woman..."

The second those words leave her mouth, I check the location and status of Cera. He's in Capital City Zenith, but he's not cheating on me... The other woman must be Amelia. He's visiting her right now.

After settling my fears, I go through what she said again. My father is in a nice home outside of Meldron to the East... Meaning she's just saved me a bunch of time... But I've spent all my money getting here using the teleportation gate...

I feel bad cause I didn't think she'd be legit... And now I don't have any money to pay her in thanks for her services...

"That's all I can get at the moment... I'm exhausted after that... Would you be a dear and get me some water from the sink over there..."

',

I do as she asks, and I get her some water. I bring it back, and she gently takes a few sips. She smiles as she places the water on the table.

"I'm sorry... I don't have any money to pay you since I spent the rest using the teleportation gate getting here... Is there any way I can pay you back with help or work?"

I don't want to leave this old woman high and dry after all the amazing things she's just done, and she said that if I found her services worth anything, I'd pay her.

"Oh, that's alright, dear. I can sense that there are a lot of things going on in your life, despite being older than me. You've still got a very long road ahead of you... There is something that I wish to warn you about... Beware of wolves in sheep's clothing..."

The warning she gives me is a little ominous, but I take it for what it's worth... Wolf in sheep's clothing... I don't know why, but I think she's referring to my father... The man that I'm here looking for... It's a gut feeling I have.

"Thank you for all your help, and I hope that I'll see you again before I'm done here in Meldro."

She nods her head as I leave, and I make my way through town. I didn't expect to find my father so fast... Maybe the man outside the city isn't my father but has a clue about where he is... Maybe he's a wolf in sheep's clothing... Perhaps I jumped to a conclusion about my dad...

There isn't a way to be sure without going to check it out, but I am worried about how I should approach this. Wealthy nobles usually have private property outside cities. I'll have to ask around about the man I'm going to see before I actually see him.

~~~(POV: Cera Adamo)~~~

~~~(Location: Inside Mansion, The Kingdom of Zenith)~~~

~~~(Time: 4:40 PM)~~~

Amelia's friends left a while ago, and all the kids are being taken care of by the maids and butlers around the mansion. I'm sitting in her office as she shows me diagrams and maps of the land she's developing.

"Since you're the noble in charge of these lands, you get to decide what to do with the land. King Jackson only gets to force development for around 30 percent of it. The other 70 percent is yours."

She lets out a long sigh, understanding what I'm talking about. It's funny considering that she's been so committed to this, and a sigh like that sounds like one of defeat.

"I know, but I don't know what to do with it. So many nobles, merchants, and everyday people have been pestering me about it. Every day it's none stop."

I feel bad for Amelia... She's doing most of this on her own... Everything except for the building and funds needed for the land. Other than that, she's the brain and nervous system of this massive undertaking.

"You know it's okay to take a break once in a while. All of us need one."

Before she can respond, her personal butler enters the room and has a cart full of food and drinks. Seems like it's meal time...
