Mother

Princess Cassandra looked at the Duke and Amy in shock. 

Cassandra did not understand where the elements went. Princess  Cassandra closed her eyes as she tried to connect with the elements but she could not. Cassandra could only see the crystals with fire and water elements.

Princess Cassandra tried to touch the crystals in hope that the elements would talk with her but nothing happened. Cassandra opened her eyes in shock. 

"They are not there." Princess Cassandra whispered as if in shock. Her eyes trembled as Cassandra refused to look up.

"It's okay, butterfly." Duke Salvador held the fifth Princess in his arms. He could sense that Princess Cassandra was blaming herself now. "It was their decision to tell us."

"But … But if I didn't force them then they would still be here to help us." Princess Cassandra's voice was low as it shivered at the end.
