Birthday banquet

As promised, both Lavina and Nepthal used to visit each other after every fifteen days, they enjoyed those days to the fullest . Months passed and their Birthday came. Both were turning four this year, and for their special day kings organized an extravagant combined birthday banquet for the prince and princess to celebrate their day together like they usually do. Whole event was decided to be organized in the Entente hall which was situated on the border of Dollmaire adjacent to Pierre. This hall symbolises the unofficial peace treaty between the two kingdoms, even this hall was made on the order of both the kings as a symbol of their Friendship, so for such an important event on which the future of two kingdoms depends they chose this place .

Preparations were started ten days prior to the event, since it was not only a birthday banquet but also an engagement banquet. Many officials , Dukes, aristocrats and Eminences from different states and countries were invited to the regale. Both kings were also busy in supervising such a great fest themselves, since a great event was also organized for their country peoples. Whereas queens were busy in dressing up their child.

Soon the moment came, both Nepthal and Lavina entered the hall hands in hand smiling, Lavina was wearing a white gown and with her red crimson hairs she was looking like a fairy whereas Nepthal was wearing a white suit with his sapphire silver hairs was looking like the symbol of elegance. Both together were looking mesmerizing and specifically with their white dresses on, it became a scene of a wedding since both of them were looking like bride and groom. An eighth tier cake tall as an eighth feet man was the center piece of the event, beautifully decorated and was a beautiful combination of a birthday and a wedding cake. Whole place was decorated by fresh flowers with the most beautiful chandeliers together, When the hall was being echoed with the Birthday Carol they both cut the cake together, and then they placed a ring on each other's finger with this even the engagement ceremony was done. They both were unaware of the fact that the rings on their hands meant a lot for anyone, but for both of them it was just a gift they both were gifting to each other on their birthday. After the ring ceremony , it was the time for the ball dance, the opening dance was performed by the kings Elvish and Selemon with their queens Christine and Surica respectively. Soon the whole Regale became lively and everyone was dancing with their partners. But center of attention were still Lavina and Nepthal who were dancing while looking at their parents dancing and were trying very hard to imitate them, while making a lot of mistakes, stepping on each other, scolding each other they kept on dancing.

Event ended very late at night so Elvish and Christine decided to stay in Dollmaire palace. In the morning both of them with Nepthal went back to Pierre.

After four days, in the midnight when everyone was asleep in their rooms suddenly the weather changed dramatically in Dollmaire specially only over the palace, as It was thundering outside with a heavy rainfall. A shadow suddenly appeared inside Lavina's room, and said" What a beautiful girl? Indeed she is my soul vessel, just look at her hairs just same as mine." while stroking Lavina's head.

This shadow was none other than the fire God Karen. He stretched his hand out and suddenly a red shiny crystal big as a plum appeared in his hands out of nowhere, he carefully placed the crystal in her mouth and as soon as the crystal came in contact with her saliva it melted the next second. Karen was sitting next to her on the bed while stroking her head he said " I am giving you my powers, hope you will be able to control them very soon" while saying this he leaned and placed a kiss on her forehead and continued "I bless you, stay well you have a big responsibility on your shoulders" by this he got up and disappeared in the air, with this this weather again got normal as it was before. No one was aware of this fact since everyone was under a deep sleep because of Karen's spell, even Lavina.
