The Thistle
15 - OzzHogs


WinkGef closed FayLinn's room slowly. The boy was so exhausted today,


until he fell asleep quickly. She was already asleep when WinkGef was holding her


get off BirdNerd. Not realizing that WinkGef repeatedly kissed the cheek


and his forehead with wet eyes.


WinkGef headed to his room. He just felt his body ache all over


when he threw his body on the bed. The shadow of ZinLinn's face flashed.


His longing for the woman, slowly began to unravel. With his busyness take care of


FayLinn has a lot of attention. But, never mind when night falls, WinkGef


feeling so lonely. Normally, he sat on the edge of the balcony with ZinLinn, he said,


hang your feet and talk about Planet Zinnia. ZinLinn always provide


a new chapter every night, and it makes WinkGef increasingly understand Planet Zinnia.


A planet with only water, land, air, no fire. Planet with Rouya tree


as the main tree as well as supporting life. Other plants are just a fowl


low, decorating the gardens of Nerdia.


”I'm sorry, ZinLinn, I wasn't able to take good care of our son. I


often lose him,” murmured WinkGef.


WinkGef sat on the edge of the bed. Everything that happens after death


ZinLinn, being out of his control. And what happened at DesTyn's house


he really didn't expect it before. FayLinn has more power


the Terrible of ZinLinn. What a danger to him when he reaches the King


Orla knows. WinkGef could lose FayLinn for good.


WinkGef rubbed his face many times. He hopes Enya Moss can understand


himself. That threat, really regretted it. He knows the character of Enya Moss


when he became leader of Enya. Enya Moss also had a child. She definitely doesn't


want to lose his son. The child who belongs to the kingdom is the same as


bereft. But, now Enya Moss is the leader of Enya. WinkGef only


a nobleman. That threat could be very serious for Enya Moss.


”I have to hide FayLinn, but how to?’


WinkGef can't think clearly. Suddenly he remembered OzzHog.


Maybe it's time to postulate his plans against OzzHog.


WinkGef recalled the time he had LesTyn call OzzHog to


facing it. That young man, you could say, was still young. His age could be half


winkgef Age. But he looks mature and mature.


WinkGef called out to OzzHog in his room, letting the young man stand in


in front of his desk, while WinkGef enjoyed a glass of Yellow Rouya.


He played the glass in his hand, while staring at OzzHog. He planned


host OzzHog by drinking the Yellow Rouya. One glass is empty, though,


he placed it right in front of OzzHog, so that the young man could easily reach him.


Then poured a squeeze of Yellow Rouya from a container of Rouya leather


Yellow too. OzzHog simply observes his behavior.


”You've ever drank a Yellow Rouya squeeze?” ask WinkGef.


”Early, Sir. On the plantation, sometimes the workers make it if there is Rouya


yellow that broke due to fall.”


”Rouya yellow ripe?”


”Iya, Mr.”


”This is a light yellow Rouya. Plucked from a tree. Try.”


OzzHog nodded. Take a glass in front of him, and drink it slowly


Yellow Rouya, put it down, then put it back on the table.


”How?”


”It's sweeter.”


WinkGef laughs. He poured the Yellow Rouya in an OzzHog glass.


Supposedly, the Yellow Rouya squeeze was tasteless. The effect is only to add


stamina. But, OzzHog could call it sweeter. And that makes WinkGef


started to open notes in his mind about OzzHog. This man, not a young man


indiscriminate. WinkGef knew that the workers on the plantation sometimes made a feeling


Rouya from Rouya fruit that is not worth selling. They can also take him


go home. Compared to the nobles, the workers knew more about each taste


rouya Fruit. Because they tried everything. Sometimes, without knowing what the benefits are.


And there is no sweet Rouya.


”I heard that your father also worked on my estate. Sorry, I don't know


all employees. You know the number is not small. I'm all handing it to LesTyn


to care. " Say WinkGef, when OzzHog has looked a little


relaxed. He clutched a woven hat on his chest.


”Ya, sir. My father, ScarHog has been sick for a long time. So he told


I replaced his job. We need the cost to live and also


treatment of my father.”


”Ah, yes. ScarHogs. LesTyn never said that. I told him to


took some time off, but he said he still wanted to work. So then


he's delegating his work to you?”


”If Sir pleases, I will replace my father's next job.


I can no longer work in the garden. He's old, it's time


resting.”


WinkGef looked at the face of OzzHog. Steady and sturdy man. Him


not only BirdNerd riders are reliable. He also trained his physique.


It looks from his big arm and looks full. WinkGef's eyes can't


duped. The appearance of OzzHog is like a worker in general. Shabby clothes from


cheap Red Rouya Fiber. But behind that shirt, there was something different.


WinkGef stood up from his seat, carrying his full-fledged drinking glass


yellow Rouya Hassan. He approached OzzHog who was still bowing respectfully,


around his body while observing all the details of OzzHog's body. Ozzhogs, ozzHogs,


not a random young man. No young man in Nerdia had any physicality


like OzzHog, except he's a SkyDiver. And the best SkyDivers in Nerdia


was WinkGef.


”Hm, what's your specialty, OzzHog? You know, I shouldn't have accepted


workers because of heredity. Nothing in my rules. But, because you've


meritorious to save my daughter, consider it a gift. I lost that rule


for you, as a gift.”


”Thank you, Mr.”


WinkGef stood to the right of OzzHog. The boy is still down. Him


looks polite, but WinkGef knows he's hiding something. WinkGef


dropped glasses.


As fast as lightning, OzzHog caught the glass, until he sat on his knees


bendable.


WinkGef looked at OzzHog who was now sitting on his knees in front of him, while


holding a glass filled with a Yellow Rouya squeeze. Without a single drop spilling.


Now WinkGef knew who the young man before him was. And the young man knew, too,


WinkGef has tested it.


WinkGef sat back at his desk. OzzHog stood up slowly, and laid down


the glass is on the table.


”Now, tell me. What are you doing on my farm? Isn't that


should you be in Gardenia, Enya Flash?”


OzzHog is no longer down. He stood up straight and looked at the WinkGef


staring too. His disguise had been exposed, and he could not dodge it


enya Leader. Nothing escaped his eyes.


”How is Enya Sprout? I greet King HazelFog, the ruler


Gardenia.”


There was no expression on WinkGef's face, though the name was called. King's Sister


Orla, ruler of Nerdia.


”Open your shirt.”


OzzHog according. He took off his shirt and looked at the chest of his field. WinkGef


found a sign on the left chest of OzzHog. The King HazelFog Logo. Thunderbolt.


And that mark couldn't have been on OzzHog's skin without something named


flames. OzzHog is King HazelFog's messenger. But what he did in


Nerdia, there was no agreement between King Orla and King Hazel. Kings


Hazel, the younger brother of King Orla, was expelled from Nerdia because he used fire. An


the great chaos had caused him to be expelled from Nerdia. She can't


use the fire again on Planet Zinnia, or King Orla will destroy it.


WinkGef looks serious. The quiet atmosphere in his study was for a while.


”Don't call me Enya. You know, I'm no longer Enya. So, I


nor is it obligated to convey this to King Orla. An Enya


his sister's envoy, infiltrated my plantation. It's a violation of the rules


not lightly. You certainly remember how the wrath of King Orla when he drove out


her sister's. The closest access limit for King Hazel is South Nerdia. Not more


from it. You can get here, I hope Enya Moss doesn't catch you.


Just like I was. No one will escape me. You need a lot


learn, so that no one else knows your disguise. Especially the King


Orla. ”


OzzHog nodded. He knew WinkGef wouldn't be as angry as Enya Moss


finally caught him. His life orientation was different. He's not Enya anymore.


”I am only an ordinary people, who survive by planting and


rouya's business. I know, you're not my employee. I memorized every face


my employees.”


OzzHog nodded.


”I know you will finally know me in the near future. So, what am I


can work here?”


”With two conditions.”


”What is it?”


”First, I must know your mission. Second, you must take care of my son.”


”Please excuse me, Sir. My mission is only one. Keeping Miss FayLinn.”


WinkGef frowned. They look at each other. There are many things that must


they talked.


Ooo


WinkGef jerked.


He felt asleep for quite a while. Be aware


dark surroundings. It's still night. Apparently the waiter forgot not to provide


Rouya is in her room. WinkGef went to the window and opened it. Suddenly


his eyes caught something that glowed dimly nun far away in the plantation.


”OzzHog, ” hisses.


WinkGef rushed out of the room, towards the room


FayLinn next to his room. Open the door slowly and find her son


being asleep with the dimness of the yellow Rouya. WinkGef opened the window


Faylin. He still found something that glowed dimly in the distance.


WinkGef immediately ran out of his house.


Found BirdNerdnya was tepekur in the yard next to his house. WinkGef


directly jumped onto his BirdNerd's back, then patted his neck. WinkGef


knew he must have surprised his BirdNerd. But a pat on his neck


will make his BirdNerd soon realize that he is needed by his employer


to immediately fly into space.


WinkGef groped his stomach, he did not forget


something's. It was always there, even though he was sleeping.


The light was small and dim in the distance


that is, getting clearer and bigger. And WinkGef can see there's no BirdNerd


far above that light. He surrounded the light.


And the rider is aware of WinkGef's presence. Him


rotate the BirdNerdnya until a moment later they face.


”OzzHog!” exciting WinkGef, ”what are you doing?”


OzzHog, with a woven hat on his head. Her face


it seemed to be glittering overwritten by the light coming from the trunk of the Rouya tree


it's burning!


There's a fire in Nerdia, on WinkGef's farm! And that


it's catastrophe. A moment later, some BirdNerd came. The workers


plantation. They brought water, poured it into the fire. But the fire was not


dwindling. They're back again. Taking water from the well.WinkGef directs


His BirdNerd to attack OzzHog who had circled the light.


OzzHog was surprised, he fell from his BirdNerd.


WinkGef immediately jumped off BirdNerd and fell right next to the OzzHog


trying stand. But when he could stand, he felt


a cold pointed object on his neck. WinkGef had drawn the sword, ready


killing him.


”Mr WinkGef, this is not what you see!”


he said trying to calm himself. He was just a little mispronounced or wrong


motion, he's sure WinkGef will hurt him.


”Fire is not in the deal, it does not mean


that's allowed, OzzHog. You know it.”


OzzHog felt the tip of the sword pressing against his neck.


He developed a hand, showing an attitude of surrender.


”You'd better keep that gun, Mr. Sprout. You


not Enya. You're not allowed to use Enya's weapon anymore, are you. Awhile


again the workers will come, and you won't want them to see you


wielding the sword Enya”


WinkGef kicked OzzHog in the knee, making the man


falling again. This time, he sat on both knees. WinkGef frowned. It's Flash


not fighting?


The workers came. WinkGef hurried


turn his sword into a belt. The workers poured water, but fire


not extinguished. While all BirdNerd started to move away, afraid to see the fire.


Hot weather around them.


”Take a blanket in my room, and wet it with water!”


scream WinkGef.  The workers immediately


fly away.


”Say that you did not make fire.” WinkGef said


sharpest.


”BirdNerd Black.”


WinkGef gulped. Why should fire?
