"do you know where the high roller is so I know when she will get back"Xobic drink some of the water and start to have a bad feeling.

 

[The Suspicious Eye]

The maid finished and looked at him "Oh she is at the Triad Villa, it is a hidden area where the council of three meets. No one knows where it is, but it is about a days ride on horse. I guess soon it will be the council of two, seeing that she will wed one of the princes soon. Her goal was to gain establishment on her own however I doubt she will stay high ruler long without a husband." The maid sighed sadly "If only the king wasn't ill, or her champion hadn't died. I feel for the young princess, she has lost so much and hasn't had any time to grieve." The maid shook her head "and with her mother's illness hanging around her, who know how she will fare."

 

[Blood dog]

"what is the king ill with I might be able to help"he know about medicine and alchemy he thought you could help the King out with that knowledge.

 

[The Suspicious Eye]

The maid smiled sadly "You can try, the King has been refusing medical treatment. He seems to blame himself for the tragedies that have befallen the princess."

Gina was riding down the path when a tree fell on the ground in front of Gina. The horse reared back and she fell to the ground. Gina slowly got up and tried to calm the horse, but it reared in fear kicking every where. The weather change was beginning to affect Gina causing her to have trouble breathing. She finally was able to calm the horse down and move it around the tree. She continued to ride onward.

 

[Blood dog]

"may I please see the king then I can probably make him change his mind"Xobic got up and was ready to follow the bad feeling got worse.

 

[The Suspicious Eye]

The maid looked at where the guards were and then tuned back and nodded. She led him to the kings chambers and motioned for him to enter.

 

[Blood dog]

he walks inside and go to the King's bedside"hey there we had a deal remember but you will have to let me treat you first it will just look bad if I do not do it you know"

 

[The Suspicious Eye]

The tired king opens his eyes and looks at the boy. At first he was shocked he thought it was a ghost coming to take him from this realm. He realized that the boy was real, "so you survived after all, huh. Very well, you have my blessings, it's the last thing this old king can do." He laid down and sighed "I need no treatment, this is my punishment for interfering with fate too many times and I will take it in full."

 

[Blood dog]

"I don't care what you say I am treating you"Xobic started to treat him and if need be he forced him to take the medicine.

 

[The Suspicious Eye]

The king looked at the boy too tired to fight him, he took the treatment "Both of you are too kind. If you don't harden your hearts it's going to be your downfall. As rules you must make the hard choices no matter what." He sighed and looked away

 

[Blood dog]

"My heart only is soft to few people, I can make the hardest decision I have been for my whole life."He finished treating him."you need two weeks of rest and then you be able to walk around again but you should not push yourself."

 

[The Suspicious Eye]

The king sighed "Very well, I look forward to viewing your progress. Please take care of my darling daughter, she is much more delicate then she shows." The king closed his eyes and rested.

 

[Blood dog]

Xobic walked out to the front doors and looked out at the storm it looks pretty nasty out there this is worse than the last one they had"I wish you all the luck my love."he patted the top of the wolf head.

 

[The Suspicious Eye]

Gina was struggling to to keep consciousness. She wasn't receiving any oxygen and couldn't see straight. She leaned onto her horse and fell unconscious. 3 days had passed and the council had returned, with no sign of Gina.

 

[Blood dog]

Xobic cannot leave for the 3 days because he had to take care of the king but he have enough for waiting.He got something from a room and had his wolf smell it and they took off to find her.

 

[The Suspicious Eye]

Gina was barely breathing, the shambles of the forest left the horse to wander around lost. She was extremely tired and worn out. She could feel her conditioning worsening, she feared for the worse. She clutched the note and dagger in her had as the horse continued to wander.

 

[Blood dog]

As Xobic wandered the woods following the wolf for it seems like hours the wolf start to howl and run off in a direction and he started to chase it staying on it.

 

[The Suspicious Eye]

Gina heard a loud howl in the distance. She reached up calming the horse so it wouldn't run again. She begins to breathe shallower and shallower, her heart rate slowing.

[The Suspicious Eye]

One of the maids looked at Xobic and walked into the room "sir, you need to rest. Gina wouldn't want you to worry like this. She will be fine, this has happened before." She turned her head a look of worry on her face"Although it has never been this bad.... I fear...."
