Garret pamit from the line of soldiers, she wanted to go to the gate to ask for information about Aliza. His heart was agitated lately, since Aliza had not kept her promise to meet at the gate, Garret felt that something had happened to his wife. Even Dominic never stopped asking about his mother's condition, in the little boy's mind, his mother did not love him because he did not meet her in the gate.
The speed of the car is getting faster, up there are several flying vehicles that pass by, very busy with their respective activities. Garret realized, the government of Canai was in disarray because the King found a lot of protests from his people.
"If His Majesty were not too strict, it might be possible that his people would respect him" Garret murmured.
Getting married in nature is the hardest thing in a relationship. All will sacrifice each other if they must be happy, but in Canai, there is only one who can sacrifice, namely humans. They should stay in Canai forever.
There was a crowd going on in the gate, some of the pigtails left without getting their results. Latua's grandfather and several other kuncens requested that Aliza's whereabouts be told by the gatekeeper, but still the gatekeeper was evasive. They keep the Trisian rot.
"That's what? why did the man leave so enraged?" ask Garret.
"They just want something that we're hard to do, that's human, want instant, '" the guard replied.
Any unsuspecting Garret believed him, she had no time to see the whereabouts of Grandpa Latua who was in the crowd. Garret went back to find information about Aliza.
"Has my wife not been here yet?"
"No one, Garret. It's possible that your wife is no longer in the village" the head guard said. In order to keep his position, he deliberately led opinions about the existence of Aliza.
"Then if I'm not in the village, where would my wife be?" ask Garret for an opinion.
The gatekeeper did not want to half-cover his crime, "It's possible that he returned to his city, maybe he had some sort of sudden business, or something else."
Nyes!
"Garret, he's human, he's saturated and bored, the human love can fade because of these two things, so think about it," the head guard continued.
Garret was disappointed to hear that, even though she knew Aliza would not be able to do that without saying goodbye to her, but it was still painful to hear the opinion of the head guard. Garret chose silence, she no longer dared to ask things about Aliza.
The gatekeeper left Garret alone, he did empathize with Garret, but his struggle to become the head of the gate he painstakingly got, did not want to end just like that for interfering in the affairs of love of others.
Garret remained waiting at the dimensional door, hoping for a human to pass by the archway, wanting to inquire about Aliza's whereabouts by sending a message to Grandpa Latua. While the head of the guard did not take his eyes off Garret, hoping that Taka would have a human meeting with Garret, as he did not want to lose Aliza to the prime minister.

Empress to the palace kitchen, she checked the dishes to be given to Trisia. There are two different types of food. The empress did not accept that, she wanted the servants to be fair in giving the menu.
"The food of the Trisians and the women prisoners should be the same, no one should be privileged, give them good food" said the queen Flora.
It is unfair to punish someone without proof. Not to mention if you have to imagine the state of the heart of the woman prisoner, because it saw the type of food is different from Trisia, when they were in the same cell, thought the Empress.
The empress rushed to her husband's room, she knew her husband was lately thinking hard about Canai's rules which asked her to be changed by her people.
"Your majesty, rest enough, if you think too much, you will fall ill" said the Empress.
King Canai remained in his seat, "It is fitting that my people always make mistakes, it is because they do not like me," he said.
The empress was fervent, she was glad that her husband was aware of the ugliness of the Canai kingdom. The rule was made by the Grandfather of King Canai thousands of years ago, making Canai residents depressed because of forced marriage and forced separation, as if the kingdom did not empathize with the feelings of its people.
"Do you have a proposal? All this time I've been too centered on the previous rules, it seems I have to change some of our rules," King Canai relented. He tried to make peace with himself, managing all with the input of the conscience of his people.
The Empress felt that it was time for her to play the role of empress in Canai Country, she had to take the role of reconciling the hearts of humans and the broken inhabitants of Canai.
"It's about noble Love, it all starts from a broken love that causes heart damage. The people of the city have too much broken heart so no longer intend to live well according to the life of the jinn," explained the empress. Wishing her husband could understand that the people only needed to be understood.
"Should we get them out of our country?" ask King Canai.
"Unlike that noble one, our country must also have strict rules, but it must not hurt them. Let them make their life choices, choose their love, choose their way of life, let the sincere human being have a Canai resident partner, and vice versa. If they make a mistake outside the rules, the new noble follows through," explained the empress at length.
King Canai is ready to draft a new law in Canai, he will meet with various officials in Canai. While out there, there was a lady-in-waiting knocking on the door, the empress moved to heed the call.
"What's wrong?"
"Outside there is Mrs Maner, she said she wants to meet with Her Majesty the empress" said the lady.
Empress Flora was silent for a moment, she knew the purpose of her foster brother's arrival, in fact the empress was reluctant to meet, but it would be a new problem again if she did not heed the request of the Mother of Trisia's meeting.
"Tell her, I'll see her in a moment" the empress said.
Empress Flora sat with the King again, she did not show her anger, did not want Trisia's problems to be known by her husband. He was embarrassed if the behavior of his nephew was again known by King Canai, the act that always tarnished the good name of the royal family.
"I feel guilty for Garret" said King Canai suddenly.
The empress furrowed her brows, it was not only her who felt guilty towards her adopted son, it turned out that King Canai was too.
"Garret never does anything that violates our rules, all our desires are quickly responded to, but because of the rules, we do not do justice with him" continued King Canai.
The empress heard the commotion out there, feeling that something was strange, she took a break from her husband for a while. Sure enough, Mother Trisia was on a rampage at that time, she forced the soldiers and ladies and gentlemen to immediately bring her together with the consort Flora.
