The Story of the Wind Wanderer
Reply Letter #86

A joking laugh rang out, as if there was no ceaseless coloring a simple dinner on the dining table of the village chief's house. Altezza had dinner with the little family, and it was the first experience for him to have a very simple dinner. Although there is no luxury, but there is a privilege that is very felt enveloping the atmosphere of a warm dinner.

The small and simple family also repeatedly invited Altezza to participate in the talks that took place between them. There is no visible gap, and the presence of Altezza is very welcome and appreciated in the house. The sense of pleasure and gratitude is certainly felt by Altezza when the dinner moment, as well as a sudden longing that just crossed.

"Hows it? Does the cooking fit on your tongue, Son Altezza?" asked Olivia who was sitting across from Altezza.

In front of Altezza there is a plate and a bowl that has been used up, the former food. Very good warm chicken soup, and grilled fish with vegetables that are also no less delicious. Although the food menus are served simply, but it tastes really delicious when touching the tongue, that is felt by Altezza to make it spend the food very easily.

"Very suitable, and delicious! Thank you for the meal," Altezza smiled, giving his opinion as well as expressing his gratitude.

Olivia seemed to be smiling, "thankfully, Iris graduated tonight" she said.

Altezza immediately turned to Iris who was sitting right next to him, "graduated?"

Iris smiled happily, and then replied, "lately I've been studying cooking, and everything was taught by my mother. Tonight, mom gave me a cooking test for dinner."

"Thank God that everyone sitting at this dinner table can enjoy the food, including you, Altezza," Iris continued, smiling with a warm, gentle look at Altezza.

Liam smiled as his eldest daughter began to cook smartly, "you know, Altezza. When Iris cooked for the first time, I had a stomachache almost three days after eating her cooking" she said.

"Father!!" riled Iris with a blushing face, looking embarrassed and annoyed, but the expression looked adorable in the eyes of her family who then provoked laughter.

"It's a good thing Aria didn't want to eat that at the time!" timpal Aria was sitting right next to Olivia.

"Please don't listen, Altezza ...!" said Iris, lowering her head, hiding her already very blushing face.

Altezza just chuckled and smiled, "yet your cooking tonight is so good, Iris. It seems like you have learned a lot about cooking" he told the red-haired girl sitting next to him.

Iris lifted her eyes, looked at Altezza and said, "thank you," though with a slightly salting attitude.

...

Some time after a simple dinner that lasted very harmoniously it was finished. Altezza stood in the garden beside the house, close to a small fish pond, and gazed towards the night sky that looked so beautiful with a sprinkling of stars. The man looks to be waiting, who else if not Shiro who he is waiting for.

"Looking at the stars" replied Altezza, glancing at Iris, who was standing right next to her, before looking back at the sky.

Iris smiled widely, looked at one of the stars, and pointed at it with one of her forefinger as she said, "look, don't those stars form a bear?"

"It was Ursa Minor, while not far from it was Ursa Major who had the shape of a dipper or banner" replied Altezza, while heading in the opposite direction from the constellation Ursa Minor seen by Iris.

Iris turned her head, looking at the man beside her with a puzzled look, "Ur .. sa Minor? Ursa ... Major?"

Altezza looked over, looked at the girl with his little smile and replied to the confusion, "Ursa Major and Ursa Minor, they are constellations that have an important role in navigation to indicate the North," said it.

"You know a lot of things, yeah ...?" cetus Iris, smiling with a look of admiration looked at the man.

"Not really" said Altezza, turning his gaze back to the sky and continued to say, "I just read about them in some books."

Iris also looked in the same direction, looking at the night sky filled with thousands of stars. Fortunately, the weather tonight is very bright, so the stars can be seen without having to be blocked by the dark clouds.

Not long after, the two looked in the same direction, watching a white eagle that seemed to fly among the thousands of stars, before finally slowly approaching and landing right above the right arm belonging to Altezza. Shiro finally came up with a letter with a sword stamp on his powerful beak.

"Royal cap" Iris said as Altezza took the letter from Shiro's beak.

Altezza opened it, and then immediately read a few short sentences written on the contents of the letter. He seemed to be made to smile, because both eyes felt familiar with the model and writing style that he currently reads.

"Is that good news?" asked Iris, looking curious because Altezza's expression looked happy because he smiled and laughed a few times.

"Yes!" sahut Altezza then gave the letter to Iris saying, "they will come immediately tomorrow, and review the abandoned mining site."

"Thank God!!" Iris looked pleased and heaved a sigh of relief, "Papa should know this news," he continued.

"Deliver him his letter" said Altezza.

"Yes, I have to tell him," said Iris seemed pleased, before then rhyming away back into the house at a quick pace, and carrying the letter in his grasp.
