The tales of `Vlenroiyla` -- 2

``We have arrived, Shin``` Ylwan said as she set him on the ground.

``But.. there's nothing there, what do you mean?`` Shin asked her in confusion.

She smirked and then she started laughing hysterically. She pointed to a large tree and motioned for Shin to follow her to that tree. Shin was puzzled again so he decided to do just as she said and followed her to the tree.

Once they got at the tree, she tapped the tree bark three times, muttered a few words and placed her forehead on the tree. She backed away slowly as a magic door appeared on the tree. Ylwan opened the door and inside was a truly grand, magnificent, and truly fascinating City filled with Elves, witches, shamans anything you can name. There was lots of commotion, souvenir shops, food stands, fortune tellers and many more.

``Agh! Why is it so damn loud here... And why is there so many people!`` Shin complained to the witch.

``Well, what do you expect? We are at the Magic Corner after all and you are using big words for your size lil pup!`` She replied as she walked away and Shin followed behind her. After they walked for what seemed like forever, they finally reached The magical shop of magical Ingredients.

``I am not liking this... not one bit, let's just hurry up and go back I don't want to do this anymore, I'd rather be bored!`` Shin complained to as if it was the end of the world.

Ylwan decided to ignore Shin this one time. Shin scoffed and stood beside her as she negotiated with the shop owner for the prices for the ingredients she needed. She took quite a long time before buying the ingredients as the shop keeper kept on recommending some other items with discounts but she ignored the recommendations and signaled Shin so they can go.

As they walk away a large crowd of people notice Shin. Everyone groups up around them, Ylwan sighs and motions for shin to stop walking. Shin stands there and looks greatly puzzled The people start chattering around them and then an elf crouches down and observes Shin. 

``Everyone! This is indeed the famous prince Yu Shin! Everybody come and see!`` They shout with a grin upon there face, this attracts more people which starts a loud commotion. 

In just a matter of seconds the whole city stands there, all sorts of questions are being asked, Shin gets angry, uncomfortable and scared. ``Tell them to go, please I don't like this...`` Shin says in his head. Hearing this, Ylwan tells the whole crowd to make way immediately.

``What is the meaning of this!? Make way, Everyone make way for the young prince!`` She says loud enough for everyone to hear.

As they hear this, they all start to make way aligning themselves to form to lines on the side making a clear path in the middle. 

``All better. You okay?`` She asked nicely.

``Um... Thank you.. I guess`` Shin says as he takes a deep sigh. Ylwan leads the way as she starts walking ahead of him. He quickly follows behind her as they go out a magic door leaving the city. Once again she picks him up and flies their way back to the fort.

``This fort's outside is not so pleasant is it? I shall change it to a cabin at once!`` Ylwan said, and with that, a cabin it became.

She sniffed the door, smirked and stepped inside. All the decorations were already done including all her supplies. With that she hung her jacket on the hanger and took Shin's little but extremely hot shoes off. 

``Why are you letting me stay here?`` Shin asked her out of curiosity.

``Because you have an ability that is struggling to awaken, I shall help you with it. And you seem far too weak to be out here on your one away from your royal family`` She Told him in a serious tone.

Shin stayed quiet, wondering what she meant by that, awaken an ability? Shin didn't agree to the fact that she said that he was far too weak to be out on his own, he could do perfectly fine by himself. Shin told her that he'd go out for a stroll and she gave him a necklace, she told him It would signal her if he needed anything and out he went into the forest.

I must think it through... Abilities? What abilities could i possibly need to awaken, i keep thinking about it. Shin thought as he walked through the forest in the cold air.

The thought was swirling around his mind, it was all he could think of and he liked it. It's been a while since something so interesting happened to him that he would become unable to stop thinking about it.

Shin noticed he was becoming a little light headed... Had he forgotten something? Ah.. Shin had forgotten his scarf, his neck was becoming so cold as if it'd been in a cold freezer for hours on end. To make it worse, the necklace made the coldness worse as it became cold too.

All this was quite baffling, The place looked like it was as hot as the warm summer heat but all of that was a trick to the eyes, it was as cold as the coldest wintery night. The wind blew as Shin grew colder in the breeze, He had to go back.

Shin looked back and it seemed that he'd walk quite a long way lost in his thoughts. He wasn't sure if he'd find his way back but he'd better have found a way back in a flash, no matter how. From that, Shin started running back and luckily he'd been going on the same pathway the whole time so he knew exactly where he was going. He was getting more lightheaded by the mere second so he had to go as fast as he could go but the air was truly sickening. He wondered why he just noticed how cold it was, was the scarf really that big of a difference?

``Oh thank heavens! I've arrived back to the cabin just in ti-`

THUD!

At a paw away from the door, Shin passed out and collapsed on the spot. He laid there.. In the cold motionless. Luckily the necklace that Ylwan gave him started glowing and Ylwan noticed it.. A few minutes after Shin collapsed due to her being greatly busy in her studies. She hurried to the door and brought Shin inside then laid him down on a cushion. 

``Gee.. His body has frozen up completely, oh how he must've suffered the cold of this wicked place! Though he looks perfectly fine... Hmm, I blame myself for not reminding him to take his scarf but then again at least he had the protective shoes on`` She said as she put an extra heated blanket over him to restore his body to it's natural temperature.

After she did that, she went to her table and wrote down some observations, she added the remaining ingredients to her potion and took the potion, she walked over to Shin and slowly opened his mouth.

``I'm guessing you got lightheaded? Perfect.. That makes this easier for me, now hang on a little` she said to herself

She opened Shin's mouth and poured the potion slowly into his mouth and used a spell to make him swallow. The red mark on Shin's fur started glowing uncontrollably as his body started to heat up. His body was boiling with heat as the red mark continued glowing, red stars appeared on his forehead... And then, everything stopped. 

``Perfecto! Now, rest little pup. When you awake we shall see if it is a success`` She said as she walked away and turned the lights off.
