Chapter 256 - War of Silver and Red (4) (1/2)
Vivian had returned with a Li'a who carried in a plate of treats. Caramel she could see it in top of the plate, such a delicious thing. Her eyes filled with excitement as she quickly took the small caramel quare cake into her mouth.
When she had realized what she had done she went red with embracement. Vivian and the Li'a both couldn't help but smile at the cute moment of her majesty.
”Your majesty, do you wish to read anymore scriptures?” Vivian said as she saw most of them where pushed to the side.
Gaze was oddly enough a fast reader she could remember anything she read as well. Vivian had study the work for years, well, the research also did as well. Yet, it took Gaze mare seconds to completely remember all of it.
”Yes, you can put all these away except for the scrolls.” Gaze said, whole thinking. She needed to take a second look at them, the Scrolls are filled with random lines that had multiple meanings. She really couldn't understand what they where for.
”Vivian?” Gaze called her before she left the room. ”Chasan, was the founding city for the empire, why was the capital moved to here? Do you know?”
”No, your majesty. The capital move happened around the beginning years of the Red Empire, that information was not saved.”
”…..” Gaze inwardly sighed, it was yet another thing unknown to her. ”Please continue what are you doing” She said softly, both Vivian and the Li'a who was their walked out of the room with loads of scrolls and papers and books in their hands.
Gaze stood up and walked towards the open balcony that had a beautiful of the Base. Below soldiers both male and female where training, the market was booming and teaming with life and laughter. The Parks showed children playing and having fun.
Grass and all sorts of greenery only grew within the walls of the base, outside was pure desert kissed by the sun several times.
She leaned on the stone railings lost in thought as she stared off into the distance, when she finally moved again, she saw the words carved into the railings that weren't their before.
”Take me back to a place, I know, Changed by time's cruel gift. Destroyed by enemies, heartless actions.” She ended up reading out loud, nothing seemed to have happened so Gaze shrugged her shoulders and turned around.
Only to be met with a dark alley and outlooking a busy street filled with people. Gaze froze and panicked she had no idea where she is or what the just happened. But, right at this moment she blamed her stupidity for reading the writings outload.
”Young lady?” said a middle-aged man. Gaze turned around to face him, the guy looked to be a mugger and he held a revolver in his hand. ”Red or Silver?” he asked.
”Red” Gaze forze she didn't want to be shoot again.
