Episode 187: Stored In Memories.
Momentum is changed by the day shift. The promise of two friends to meet soon realized.
The day where the rain happened and as the agenda of Queen Arenda who visited Apan and Hiri. In their home, Queen Arenda was well received. Smiles accompany their togetherness.
Although Hiri looked timid and awkward, but the intertwined talk was fine. Especially for Apan and Queen Arenda.
Their friendship was as warm as it should have been. The topicality of the initial conversation is about some individuals in the West who do a lot of riots grudge or demand justice.
Some privately demanded that officials immediately stop the war because the longer it only hurts more. The guard on the Western nation became tenuous because it was too focused on fighting. Many of them were imprisoned and sentenced to death.
The Masli sect, which is the majority of Westerners, began to bear the heavy burden of the problem again. Some of their members killed the officials. The reason is simple, but very meaningful, about the justice that has not been obtained for the two tribes of the Elf race and the world war that has no truth at all.
The death penalty was again applied to those who defected. Moreover, quarrels about tribes and clans that are still maintained by some lines to be used as absolute identity continue to be voiced.
Because after all, King Azer tried to unite all groups, tribes and clans not to boast about it. King Azer had also pioneered for citizenship identity to eliminate the names of groups, or sects. The goal is not to be the beginning of hostilities.
The government knows, if this era should eliminate grouping or classification between each other. And it has been done for years, but there are still stubborn.
Thankfully ever since King Azer came to the throne, the laws in the Elf race grew sharper. For those who fought between sects and groups, it was certain to be dissolved and the leader was immediately put to death.
It actually included canuns in the Elf race, but it was only realized when King Azer was in charge, while his father, up to the previous judges, mostly pardoned the defendants.
In exchange, King Azer immediately initiated new laws, concerning those who could kill for revenge, but could not carry the name of a group or government.
Even the new law also suggested that if the king's decree and the ruling of the government were absolute, anyone who opposed it would be flogged or burned.
Some important points such as, citizens are allowed to drink, citizens are allowed to torture others, allowed to gamble, until allowed to worship the Devils, but are obliged to remain inside the house, in other words, to be allowed to gamble, anyone who commits a criminal act, while in the house, it is no longer a matter of state law; private law.
It may sound evil of the law, even so, in fact they remain bound by the law of angels, so that whatever crime it is, the ends of the race of Angels who will become law enforcement.
Moreover, on its basis, the law was once upright during the era of the 21st Western king and after being replaced, now King Azer set it again. For some others, it may be considered tyrannical, but nevertheless, there is a combination of elements of theocracy, monarchy and democracy so it is rather difficult to explain that this law is not limited to the authority of the king.
Therefore, the new law had a polemic and was just passed 30 years ago by parliament and has been agreed directly by the king.
It's just that, when it is well received by the community, in fact it makes sense. The people themselves finally agree and are not skeptical about it. After all, while not hurting other individuals or while doing it in the house, it is absolutely the right of the owner of the house.
The stories are closed by the existence of cities in the Western nation that began to be visited by many races of Demon and the government is rather apathetic about it. The rest is about King Azer who has sworn to dedicate the era of the glory of the Elf race to the world.
The story and experience of Queen Arenda was continued by Apan who told about his first meeting with Hiri.
Memories, all of it stored sweetly in it. In that simple room in the perspective of the Elf race, those who sat on the special clouds, again focusing on the important story, the memories were gradually revealed by Apan.
“We first met ... when I was doing a country mission in one of the neutral regions ...”
An accidental meeting, Apan who is looking for clues about fugitives of the country, even caught a crocodile demon. Apan thought it was this crocodile demon that helped the fugitives hide.
Hiri who lived in the forest was always alone and always hid himself. This woman is indeed shy and clumsy, it is also what makes Apan suspicious.
Apan is forced to live in the swampy forest to investigate Hiri. Every second in reality, inevitably becomes a separate togetherness for them.
Hiri, who used to live in Etho's realm and then moved to the Fairy Realm to protect herself, never knew who her parents were or where her family was.
Apan at that time did not talk much and indeed could not reveal his identity in front of an unknown person. During those days, Apan was always a good listener for Hiri and the shy Hiri gradually got used to Apan.
That's when, besides Apan hearing the stories of Hiri's life, he starts helping Hiri's life here. As well as looking for food, to protect it from other stealth colonies that seek shelter.
Over time, Apan is not usually willing to help an unknown person on a mission, or whatever happens, when time gives a sense of familiarity that is increasingly dense with the course of the life cycle.
Apan began to dare to reveal a little of his life to Hiri which he considered no longer a stranger.
Since then they have become more familiar, a familiarity that begins to bring confidence and usually even in the assignment, Apan will remain focused, never feeling his heart stir like his meeting with Hiri.
But the mission continued, ten years there did not make Apan progress his mission. So that they were forced to part in a heavy and passionate heart.
The separation took 300 years and in the end, now they also wade through life in the wave of reality of marriage.
“... We then pledge to live life together and I am sure ... Hiri is my soul mate ...,” toilet —tengiling— Apan.
Although it sounds impressive, although it is enough to make Queen Arenda develop an understanding smile. In fact, Queen Arenda was disgusted to hear it, too disgusted that a race of Elves would marry a demon. Especially to be proud that the despicable demon is his soul mate.
Queen Arenda cannot deny that Hiri does look a good woman and can only think of Queen Arenda to him.
After that, in the middle of the night. Queen Arenda must say goodbye to go home.
Not only that, Apan as a good friend, even delivered Queen Arenda.
They parted on the road to the Cloud palace. Nevertheless, Apan had said things that stuck in his mind.
“Arenda ... me and Hiri will stay put ... we will stay there until I retire .. so .. I hope you will keep it a secret ...”
“Yes, I can keep it a secret .. but you should always be careful ...,” Queen Arenda replied implying please and willing.
Sontak Apan who was so happy and grateful, plus the overflow of happiness for immediately becoming a father, suddenly grabbed the right hand of Queen Arenda. Shaking her hands at once she tipped the queen's fingers several times as a thank you by saying, “Thank you ... thank you, thank you, Arenda ..”
The joy was only responded to by Queen Arenda with a breeding mangosteen.
As best friends, that's all Queen Arenda can help. The rest of Queen Arenda with her clothes that were still mysteriously unrecognizable, also started flapping her wings to leave. While Apan waved his hand accompanying the departure of Queen Arenda and kept Hiri's pregnancy a secret.
