Cursed Lands

Seth motioned for the guard to stand up and waited for him to leave the room before smiling at the queen of the Curse Kingdom.

“A pleasure to finally meet you, Your Highness.” said Seth, ignoring Aleena’s sad expression as they both went and sat down opposite the queen on the sofa.

“Call me Andrea. I would stand up to greet Your Excellency properly, but these old bones of mine no longer move as they used to...”

“No need for that. I’m also not that big on courtesy, and you can also call me Seth. This is Aleena, one of my wives.”

The queen nodded at Aleena before looking back at Seth and sighing softly: “Leora spoke about you so many times… I’m glad I got to meet you at least once... Speaking about it… do you have any news about her now that you’ve returned?”

Seth shook his head. “There’s no way for me to chase after her, so no, I don’t know where she is, but with her speed, I doubt anyone will be able to catch up to her.”
