I walk beside Jae as we ascend the ramp into the Airship. Cera is staying behind on the dock. In his head, he's already said his goodbye. I'm not done with Jae, though. She's become my best friend, and I want to spend every moment I have left with her.

We reach the inside of the ship, and I look out at the people already here. I take my attention off them and turn toward Jae as we stand by the window.

"I'm really sad to see you leave, Jae... You've become someone special to me. Tell Leela and Laura about us. I plan to stop by with Cera sometime in the future."

Being a Godmother, I want to have a relationship with Leela and Laura. I don't know them right now, but I like that to change.

"The kids back home will be happy to hear that. I'm glad to have met you, Sally... There aren't many people in the world that are as strong as you."

She brings me into a final hug and lets me go. I make my way off the Airship and stand next to Cera. The ramp slides back into the Airship, and we watch it leave. I don't have friends. Not like Jae. Hailey has left a very sour taste in my mouth to this day.

I still haven't forgiven her as much as she'd want that.

"Now, what do you think we should do now? We've seen the capital. The Kingdom of the Dark Elves. There is still a lot that we have yet to see in this part of the world."

It's about time we left Armezix and did it with nowhere new in mind. We'll eventually run into the Nomadic Orc Tribes, but I've grown tired of this place, and I wish to leave for something less crowded.

"I don't know, but I want to leave today. There are so many places we can go see. We were going to check out the nearby Kingdoms, but do you still want to do that, given how much time we've spent here?"

Cera doesn't like spending too much time doing the same thing all the time. It's understandable.

"I think we're over-do for some silence. As interesting as visiting a Kingdom would be."

The sarcasm in his voice is almost humorous.

"I'd like to do something interesting for a change. I'd like to find some Dungeons and Raids. Take them on, and learn more about this part of Gaia."

I'm in the mood for some battle too. It's been a good couple of weeks since we took on that one Dungeon.

"Well, what are you waiting for?"

The eagerness in my voice ignites a fire in Cera. He takes me by the waist and his wings spread out. In the next second, we're flying through the sky and above the Kingdom of Armezix. The jungle isn't visible in the distance yet but after a few hours of traveling at max speed.

We'll be out of Armezix and on our way to do something interesting for a change.

I shift to lay on Cera's back, and I enjoy the freedom that comes with flying. I know that it's not me who's flying, but it's still something that I never get tired of.

"Just so you know, we'll have to visit Leela and Laura sometime in the future. What kind of Godparents would we be if we didn't know our Godchildren."

Many would say that it's not an important role in a kid's life. But that doesn't have to be the reason we don't see them. I'd like to get to know the sweet little kids. Pazemad and Jae did a wonderful job of raising them.

"I get where you're coming from, Sally, but we'll likely not be seeing them for a while. While getting back wouldn't be hard, we have our lives to live too."

Cera has an Active Skill called Aspect of Transportation. He can teleport to any named location he's been to before. It's convenient, but we haven't used it yet. But it's there if we need it to get back to somewhere that we haven't been to before.

"I know, just don't forget about them. We've made many friends in our travels, and we haven't visited any of them. I don't want to miss out on something like this."

It's important to me that I keep my friendships alive. I haven't had them for the majority of my life. I don't want to lose them now.

"We won't miss out. I doubt that Leela and Laura will even care that we visit them often. I'm not against stopping by everyone once in a while. But it's not going to be a regular thing. That's too inconvenient."

I don't like it, but I agree with him. We can't be there as often as I'd like.

"Mmm... I won't think about it..."

I lean my head and body against his back and take a deep breath. Relaxing as I do. It's really not that big a deal. Leela and Laura will grow up fine without us.

"That's the way. Pazemad and Jae have no need of us. That's the great thing about being a Godparent. You're not needed, only wanted."

That's a good way of looking at it.

"It seems that Angel Zern was seen flying away from the capital."

Rhael informs me of the developments that have occurred in the last few hours. Right now, my mind is on Teziel. He's on his way here. The Throne room. All the children are on their way here. It's time that I inform everyone of the change.

Rhael is to be my heir.

As much as it hurts to do this, I must do what is best for Armezix. Teziel isn't what's best for Armezix. Rhael has proven to be the only one of my children with everything to rule.

"That's good. It'll make what's about to happen easier."

That's a sentiment that I'm not sure is good in truth. Teziel has convinced himself of things that aren't real. Enemies, spies, and traitors. Impossibilities that exist in Armezix. I've made sure in my time of ruling the Kingdom.

"Are you as nervous as I am?"

He's right to feel nervous about this. He's not the only one. It's the right response in the situation we're in.

"I'm what I need to be, Rhael. When you take the throne, you'll learn that too."

He nods his head as he stands next to me. A few minutes later, the room slowly starts to fill with my children, and the last to arrive is Teziel. He comes in with the same look he always does, like he knows everything that's happening.

They all kneel and raise their heads at my command.

"Do you know why you've all been summoned here today?"

No one speaks up except for Teziel. 𝘧𝘳𝐞𝚎𝑤ℯ𝘣𝗻𝘰ѵℯl.c𝐨𝚖

"You've recognized the danger to your life, and you're here to give us orders."

He sounds so confident in that thinking. News hasn't spread to him and his people, it seems.

"No, Teziel. Angel Zern has left the capital and is on his way out of Armezix."

He gains a confused and worried look on his face, and before he can speak. I hold up my hand to silence him. He obeys and lowers his head.

"Rhael is now heir to the throne."

Everyone in the room has varying reactions. Some look betrayed, others look surprised, and Teziel himself isn't looking at me.

"Look at me, Teziel."

He bites his lip as he raises his head.

"You have failed in proving you can rule. This is the result of your paranoia at things that don't exist. A King can't rule when he only sees foes where he looks."

A sad day... But necessary...
