"What is is mother? is there a problem?'
"No Rain," said his mother, "there is no problem at all."
"Mother, I don't understand."
"Son, listen, I can't really tell you all about it right now, it will take a long time and there is not time to lose. What I can tell you is that you must leave immediately."
"LEAVE! Mother, what do you mean leave?"
"Son, I am your mother, but I am also your guardian. I was entrusted to guard you and care for you until the time was right. And the time is right, right now."
"Mother, I do not understand. Why do I have to leave now?"
"Son, you are asking too many questions and there is no time for answer now. I will ask you only one question: Do you trust me?"
"Mother, of course I do but..."
"Then you must do what I tell you, and you must do it quick."
"Yes, of course mother, but I must get answers soon."
"You will, my son, now I have you packed here." She handed him a nice leather bag, with only one strap to put around his neck and it hunged on his side.
"Mother could you at least tell me where am I going?"
"You have to travel to The Kingdom of Alastair, to the Great City of Cross."
"The Kingdom of Alastair is far mother, and the City of Cross!!"
Arcturus grabbed all the things his mother handed him, and put the leather bag around his neck so that the strap rested on his left shoulder and the bag on his left hip. He could not help thinking what had gotten into his mother, but he trusted her completely and in a few moments, he was ready.
"Mother, how am I supposed to get there?"
"No Rain," said his mother, "there is no problem at all."
"Mother, I don't understand."
"Son, listen, I can't really tell you all about it right now, it will take a long time and there is not time to lose. What I can tell you is that you must leave immediately."
