With eagerness, she dashed off to the space behind her, gazing now upon the city she left behind. Her home, her responsibility, Governanti reflecting off of her pale blue eyes. Her face said it all upon seeing her home, her ecstasy vanished, the malady of homesickness and a deep concern over her brother wore her down greatly.
"My queen," the kind, noble voice of her knight Achernar addressed her, attempting to ease her agony. "This is what I wished to show you."
Hearing this suggestion be made to her, the obsidian-headed queen faced away from her pain, her angst. She moved onward toward her knight, drawing closer to the eastern half of the tower. She drew closer, and inch by inch did an image become more lucid. Her pale blue eyes lit with surprise and wonder, all of her breath torn from her lungs in one breathtaking second.
A whole another world stretched on and on before her, separated by a long, wide river. This world as markedly green as a peacock's feathers washed over her eyes, a strange, yet simply astonishing land populated by tall vegetation and large ponds of bubbling water. Bittersweet memories flourished here in her mind, her heart returning to those wondrous days at Lumbridge.
"This place..." she mumbled, crossbred between trouble and wonder.
"Shares simlarities to the land at Lumbridge's south, doesn't it?" the noble knight Achernar completed his queen's sentence for her, much to her surprise. "I believe the humans refer to this type of wetland as a "swamp"."
Joltingly, Lucia quicky turned her head towards Achernar, having heard this unexpected reply. She found him there, staring off into the distance beyond with her. "...You know of it?" she asked him, bearing a subtle hint of hope.
The end
is only
the beginning...
