(ooc: that is the update. We are going to have a funeral for the king and later the wedding. If the evil dudes attack. we will use Terran's plan. So right now prepare for the first of two main events).
 
ooc: yes, but my evil dudes will come up with a new way to get around the plan!!!!!!!! THEY WILL DESTROY YOU ALL AND THROW A VILLAIN VICTORY PARTY! HA HA HA!! just kiddin.

ic: Rigel was walking down the hall, feeling as miserable as ever. He wondered what Decay meant by the enemy having "plans" for him. "I better talk to Arcturus about this. He may know whats going on."
 
Arcturus was finished talking. He knew the things the king had said to him and Destiny but was not about to reveal them to everyone just yet. Rigel would be the first one to know, because he was the new ruler, but not until after the funeral and wedding when he hoped things would be more calm.
 
"Twice Decay has told me that the enemy wants me alive. That he needs me for something. He has some kind of use for me. Do you have any idea what it is? Cause I don't and i'm not sure I should stick around if i'm part of the enemy's great plan."
 
Alyssa sighed " All right bye I'll let you two talk," she told him, then went back to Alex " I need to do somethng Alex," she told him.
 
"Well good things are settled and as usual commen sense loses," she half smiled, "lets trudge through tomorrow," she said as she left to find Aasen.

Thorn followed her, licking Arcturus as he passed him.


Leila found Aasen in the gardens, he was reading some sort of parchment. "What's that?" she asked him.

"Something the king once gave, turned my life around completely."

"Can I read it."

"No." he said quickly, then explained, "It's very personal...I never let anyone else read it."

"That's ok then, I understand."

"It's just things that make you think...it helped me cope with a lot of things in my life," he quickly smiled, "I miss him a lot."

"I know," she sighed, "and I'm sorry. What made you listen to him in the first place? I mean, what made you even consider reading that letter."

"I was caught stealing from him once," he chuckled, "Instead of throwing me in the dungeon he asked me why I did it. I told him I was king of thieves, and that it was my nature. He told me that wasn't true, it was just what I wanted my nature to be. I told him that it was my nature to survive, and that thievary made me survived. He had a concerned, almost saddened, look on his face and then said, "I pray you find a new nature, so your days can be of joy."..." he took Leila's hand feeling the scars and the callouses, "After that I was sent to work in the stables, and each day he wrote me something to encourage me to change my life. Some were just sayings, others were heart felt paragraphs. Then he wrote me this, and it was then I told him of my skills in map making (theives have to make maps to know what they're stealin') and eversince he's been like a father to me."

"Wow," Leila smiled, "Then I owe him more than I thought, for making you into the person you are."

"Well, I am not sure. But there are some things you father told me while you were gone to West Kingdom, they night we met him. He gave me a time line to reveal those things. But I was not counting on his death so soon."

Arcturus walked away from the others and motioned for Rigel to follow.

"I don't thing those creatures will do anything for now. Could we go on with the burial of your father first? I really think we need to honor him first. Everything can wait until later. Will you trust me on this, Your Highness?"

"Yes. I guess I trust you. I just didnt think it would go like this. My father dead and everything."
 
"I only saw your father maybe four times in the last few days. Up until then, I did not know what a real King was like. You father was the most honorable and noble of all the royalty I have met. He never thought he was above anyone else. However, I also noticed that being humble didn't mean he would not fight for what was right. I really feel sad that he is gone."

Arcturus got lost in his thoughts for a moment, and his eyes looked as if he was far, far away. He was looking in the general direction of the Island of Faerience where King Mizar had pointed. Then he turned to Rigel once more.

"Rigel, does it not make you curious as to why both you and your father have names after the names of stars in another world?"
 
"Not at all. He was one hundred percent human. And a happy one at that. But there is more to people, human or not. And your father was someone who was more than just a mere human. But can we talk about this later? Believe me, it will all make sense."

Arcturus looked down to a well-kept lawn with fountains and flower beds to the east of the castle.

"Is that the royal graveyard? I think we have talked way too much already. Is someone preparing for the funeral?"

"My father's funeral is being prepared. Look, I really don't want to talk about this anymore. I just...sometimes.... When someone you love dies, you almost wish you never knew them, so you could be spared the pain and the sorrow."
 
"Pain and sorrow is what shows us how much we valued them. It is good to experience them. Let's go and get the others ready."

(ooc: can we bury King Mizar before he starts to stink? LOL)
