TIKZ [Moving To The Golden Age]
086 - BURDENED

Successive earthquakes in short intervals.

And the fish on the coast.

Idaline can't think of this in a positive way!

"Your Majesty, what is it?" tanya Indudevi saw terror on Idaline's face.

Idaline stared for a while Indudevi who asked and then turned his gaze to the woman next to Indudevi.

"Sudewi, are many fish stranded on the beach?" ask Idaline.

"Yes, mbakyu. So residents do not need to sail far, the rare fish came to us. The fish made our soul and body strong. All that thanks from the future prince or princess–"

"No, Sudewi," cut off Idaline while standing.

"Go. Get your people out of there right now. Get to a high place!" the edict of Idalibe while moving his index finger and hand straight to the side told Sudewi to move right now.

Even if Idaline's guess is wrong at least they'll be safe if it happens!

Of those affected by the disaster and many casualties fell.

"My grace, calm down." Hayan stood followed by the three bhres who were tasting the appetizer, they stood as a sign of modesty.

It is impossible for a subordinate to sit while his superior is standing. Guitarja and Dhara stop chewing and pay attention to their five children.

Hayan rubbed Idaline's stiff shoulder. He had just seen this woman act in haste and seemed pushy.

"Everything will be destroyed in the event of a tsunami" Idaline said lowering her hand.

"Su na mi?" hayan Beo. He led Idaline to sit back down. Hayan stroked Idaline's stomach which felt tight.

Netarja, Indudewi, and Sudewi also sat back down.

"Tsunami is a disaster of sea water entering the land. The fish in deep water appear and are washed up on the beach, a few days later there will be a big earthquake and then a tsunami comes" explained Idaline. "Although not yet certain. Better to evacuate!"

"Just do it" Hayan said, following Idaline's wishes.

Only with this can Idaline be soothed.

Hayan lifted the glass and stuck it to Idaline's mouth. Idaline obediently downed the water in a glass.

Hayan put down the empty glass and rubbed the corner of Idaline's lips with her shawl.

"Eat ya? All of that I'll take care of," said Hayan, unable to look at Idaline's pale face from worry.

Dhara and Guitarja looked at each other in a blush. This child and their daughter-in-law could have made a romantic scene.

In the ordinary human side Guitarja views him as such but as the former ruler of Guitarja assess Hayan has a weak heart.

Adhering to all the wishes of the couple for no apparent reason is not a good thing. He'll ask for things that don't make sense.

Moreover, Hayan like humbling himself in front of Idaline.

Where there are men who serve women!

"Your Majesty!" call Huna running fast from the direction of the gate.

Hayan held a banquet outside the room so Huna could enter without permission.

Huna took a hasty breath and calmed down then raised up high the sealed paper he was holding.

"Sorry to interrupt your event, Your Majesty. There's a mace coming with a message."

Dara sulkan is the fastest pigeon trained to carry emergency mail.

In addition to the palace, its existence is only a matter of fingers, there is at least one in each area.

So it can be ascertained that this collection carries an important message when flown to the palace.

"Wirabhumi and part of Pakembangan were devoured by the sea. Everything turned into a sea of water. The citizens of Sadeng and Argopuro had helped but lacked skilled soldiers, many of whom were involved in tall trees. We ask for help from His Majesty the Maharaja." Huna finished reading the message and handed the paper to the Maharaja.

Hayan thought for a moment. Galuh's problem is not finished, as the Queen Mother or Gitarja Wijaya said, Galuh Kingdom will not let the people who kill their king.

Those who are loyal to Lingga Buana must protect the son of Lingga Buana. But if they have reached the land of Maja, the story will be different.

They would definitely attack without caring for their own lives.

It was Balamati, the special forces of Galuh Kingdom who did not care for their own lives, they handed it over to their ruler without coercion.

"Send senopati Janar Pandya there," Hayan dropped out.

Janar Pandya is a coach of young soldiers or soldiers and bodyguards who have just entered the Nagara sphere, an area that is one level below Bhumi.

Nagara was led directly by the bhre, rajya, natha, wadhana, and dukes who still had blood relations with the royal family.

So if ordered to move, Janar Pandya must have brought her students with her and can ease the workload of the helpers in Wirabhumi.

And the bodyguards, soldiers, as well as skilled knights did not need to descend to the place of disaster.

They should focus on protecting the capital.

"Okay, Your Majesty."

Then Huna darted away. This news should be reported right now.

On the other hand Bale' Bandhang ladies and ndalem-carrying courtiers slowed their pace by looking through the situation on the lawn.

The sad news brought by Huna could have canceled the dinner party prepared by the Emperor but they still stepped foot carrying food that was still out of the hot steam.

"Pardon the servant is not right at work" Sudewi said.

If you know it will happen like this Sudewi must report in detail every thing that happens in his area instead of planning to surprise the Maharaja and Maharani as well as others about rare fish that he found.

He was proud to find the fish from the deepest sea and thought it would be the best gift of the year.

In reality it turns out that it is a sign of a major natural disaster.

"Wirabhumi has been a disaster in recent years. Then perform the ceremonies of heaven and earth. Call the disciple of the Great Hermit," Hayan commanded.

"Okay, Your Majesty."

"Food is done. Before it gets cold let's spend it." Hayan moved his hand to code the people who prepared their food.

Dayang-dayang and ndalem servants also stepped quickly and regularly entered the yard and arranged food.

"Ayunda, eat this meat. Very delicious," tempt Netarja take a large plate containing the favorite beef Idaline.

Guitarja hit Netarja's hand that stuck out next to him. "Pregnant mothers are forbidden to eat meat. Must eat vegetables so that the fetus is healthy and strong," he explained.

Indudevi glanced at the woman he told him to. The woman who was Indudewi's personal lady-in-waiting nodded.

Indudevi smiled broadly as the lady-in-waiting stood next to him and then he picked up the box on the tray.

"Ayunda, I've prepared scissors, threads, and needles. I always expected princes and princesses to be born into the world quickly. May your child always be blessed by Him."

Indudewi gave a white wooden box wrapped in black cloth. Inside were scissors, needles, and threads made of pure gold.

These objects are protective talismans that are believed to protect pregnant women.

Idaline felt very burdened to keep all those things.

What if he was stabbed while keeping it!?
