Hareem of Queen Alessa
Presentiments
Diocletian Empire
Diocletian's Palace
Guards confronted a person wearing a robe who was intending to enter the palace area. Because it makes him open the hood that is being worn.
“Who and what do you want?” reprimand the Guard.
“I.. I am Tina from the Kingdom of Prussia. I would like to deliver a letter from Queen Anna to Her Majesty Emperor Louis,” replied the lady-in-waiting of Queen Anna's trust while holding out a letter bearing the royal seal of Prussia.
The guards took the letter and examined it carefully.
“Do you know the contents of the letter?”
“I don't know, Mr.”
The two guards threw each other a glance. They were no strangers to Queen Anna, who was the Emperor's nephew.
“You, come with us!” they walked together into the palace.
Diocletian's palace is so magnificent, 5x larger than the palace in the kingdom of Prussia. The luxurious design also signified how prosperous the Diocletianian empire was. The dayang stared in admiration at the architecture that spoiled the eyes until it had unconsciously arrived before the Emperor.
“Long life His Majesty the Emperor,” dayang give hromat.
The emperor nodded and asked. “Who are you?”
“Hamba Tina, Your Grace. Queen Anna Podolski's personal dayang. The purpose of the arrival of the servant is to deliver his letter directly to You His Majesty the Emperor,” the dayang kneeled with his hands looking forward to submitting the letter.
“Surat?”
The Emperor gave a code to one of the advisers to retrieve it and the letter arrived in the Emperor's hands. The Imperial ruler Diocletian opened the letter, reading it carefully.
The content of the letter was a request for help from Queen Anna for Emperor Louis to take care of Emperor Aegis. Emperor Louis frowned. Why did Queen Anna ask him for such a thing.
“Actually what happened? Can you explain, Tina?”
The Dayang understood the intent of Emperor Louis. Dayang Tina also told what she knew from beginning to end. Based on his own view. The emperor continued until the story was finished.
“I see, it is better for me to get rid of the pestle even though the roots are very strong. Emperor Aegis...as long as he has not set up his homeland, we are free to apply anything,” a terrible grin is painted on the face of the middle-aged man.
“Duke Tristan! Go after the Aegis Emperor! Make sure they don't get to where they came from. Catch them either alive or dead!”
“Prepare to do Your Majesty!”

The blue bead tried to open while drowsiness attacked. It was so heavy, it was as if there was a stone twitching at each end of his eyelashes. Emperor Alessa hasn't slept all night since the attack. The woman continued to be vigilant. Let nothing similar happen to him and his people. Prince Evandor noticed that it had started to get anxious. The Emperor's head repeatedly stumbled upon the window of the horse-drawn carriage.
“Your Highness, you'd better get some sleep. Let the servant watch.”
“I can still handle it,” elak the Emperor who is so stubborn. Evandor boldly pulled the Emperor's shoulder. He made the woman land her head in the prince's lap. The Emperor Alessa gasped and wanted to rise. However, Prince Evandor held him back.
“Rest, entrust all to the servant,” Evandor closes the Emperor's eyes with his hands. Swiping softly.
It turned out that the touch was able to relax the vigilance of Emperor Alessa. Either tired or already believed in the man. Slowly but surely, the woman began to close her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
Prince Evandor drew the hand that covered the Emperor's eyes. For the first time he saw the innocent face of his future wife. A beautiful face that did not look as strong as usual. There was a scratch under his eyes. Looks a little dark, signifying a lack of time to rest.
Scan that face over and over again. Until his gaze fell on the pale red lips nan ranum. Fresh as make peace when freshly plucked from the tree. Tell Prince Evandor to seek death. Or maybe he was ready to die, for daring to bring his face closer and steal the kiss of the Emperor.
“Hold my promise Your Majesty, I will not repeat the same mistake. Give me a chance.. because I've fallen in love.”.

A day had passed, the Aegis troupe had not yet reached the Port. I don't know why their path seems endless.
“Why haven't we arrived yet?” Prince Evandor asked the coachman, he looked through the window. The Emperor was sleeping on the man's lap. Prince Evandor did not wake her.
“Hamba does not know the Prince, we have followed the appropriate path,” the coachman looked confused. Because he is not so familiar with the road in Prussia. He just follows the path.
Prince Evandor shifted the Emperor's head slowly, propping it up with his robe. Feeling safe and the Emperor seemed comfortable, the man had just stepped off his chariot.
“Alright, we rest for a while.” His orders to every group. Give a break to the coachman who is clearly the most tired.
Prince Evandor took a walk and looked around. He's approaching a signboard. Prince Evandor caught something strange. There's a dig under that board. Prince Evandor touched it, the ground was like it had just been dug up. The man also tried to hold the board which turned out to be easily detached. Prince Evandor was shocked.
“What is this? Could anyone have sabotaged the directions? That's why we didn't get to the port!” Prince Evandor started to feel a bad premonition. Prince Evandor Returns to his chariot with wide strides. However, all of his prejudices were answered when the sound of the sabbath coming from the back of the horse carriage was heard.
A SRANK!
“Pa-prince!”
BRACKET
The coachman fell down with a cut on his back, a very deep cut. Fresh blood flowed. The waiters who saw that shouted hysterically.
“KYAAAAA!”
***
A day later at the Aegis Palace
PRANK!
A glass fell to pieces. The glass that Darius was wearing.
“What's Mr Darius?” Helios approached the warlord who had been silent since. I don't know why his heart hasn't calmed down since dawn.
“What is Mr Darius sick?” Prince Lucas is also approaching.
Darius was fierce and authoritarian. But Prince Lucas knew that Mr. Darius was a good man. Evident from all his policies that always side with the people. Prince Lucas found out while he was at the market. Mr. Darius distributed food and medicine without any intention of taking advantage. Prince Lucas began to sympathize with the red-haired man.
While Darius kept silent and wondered inwardly, what was this omen? From the other direction came Prince Jerome running and calling his name.
“Mr Darius!”
“What's the prince of Jerome?”
“Your Majesty!”
Prince Jerome opened his hand which contained a handkerchief. The cloth that the Emperor used to carry everywhere was stained with blood
