Queen Lisha sounded, "I remembered that. And I have said it. The princes will never do anything without my cognizant. Haven't I knew my own children? It's alright Drisat. I hope they're all fine now?"

"By luck my lady. Prince pial has managed to kill them when they attached us yesterday. The prince and his people were by the door of the royal home entrance. But they're not alone. There are villagers who were invited by princess Nar. Their lands was destroyed. Now they have nowhere to stay. So the princess ought to help them, provide them security". 

"It's okay. They're welcome. Please ask them to come in".

"Yes my lady", said Drisat and she looked at Jes again, "I think we should leave now".

As queen Lisha added, "yes, you may go Jes. I need some moments with my people".

Then Drisat and Jes walked, trying to exit the door. As queen Lisha called again, "Drisat!".

And Drisat turned before she answered, "yes my lady". 

And queen Lisha added, "please tell commando pliph to guard the door entrance. No one should enter apart from the guests".

"As you wish my lady", answered Drisat again.

Then they left.

In a few minutes, prince pial, prince Yoon, commando pliph and Samar entered the palace. Then followed by Ixan, princess Nar with the rest of the villagers.

They all took a bow before queen Lisha. 

And queen Lisha uttered contentedly, "you're highly welcome all".

Prince pial and prince Yoon walked and stood in both sides of the queen. While commando pliph and Samar stood with the guests' villagers. 

Then princess Nar utter, "we are so excited to see you and your people good and sound your highness".

"Thank you princess Nar. You have really done a tough job in eradicating the gangs", sounded queen Lisha in excitement.

And prince pial utter, "your highness, these are our guests. Their village was devasted by the bandits".

"There's no need princess Nar. We're giving them a highly welcome to our great land of keswick", exclaimed queen Lisha. And she called, "commando pliph!".

Commando pliph walked to the queen and took a bow in esteem. Then he sounds, "my lady!"

"Take them to one of the royal guests houses of the nearby farmlands. And please make sure that they feel comfortable", she explained. Then she looked at the people and utter, "keswick is your land. And you will feel safe here, I promised you. We'll help you rebuild your land and until then, you continue your stay here".

An age man, the leader of the villagers comes forth and bow to her before he added, "i am Mr. Zain Wenis, the assistance head leader of Heoro village. We're so grateful for your help and assistance your highness. You have shown us mercy and we promise to you that we'll repay you with goodness. You have provide us with everything we need your highness but if you don't mind, please we need a favor for your mercy".

And queen Lisha responds, "go on Mr. Zain".

And he continue, "we're land farmers and most of our work is fishing, farming and sometimes hunting. Giving is not what our people knows and we don't teach our children to fold their hands and wait. Although we're build with strong, negligence and zeal. Please do not hesitate my lady if we may seek your permission. Shall we continue our farmwork here and continue to survive with the blessings of our crops as we usually does?"

Queen Lisha thought briefly before she answered, "I would love that more than anything. Certainly you will live freely as you always did. We have the central market of the kingdom, in case you will need to start your business with our people".

And Mr. Zain bow to her again. Then he went back to his position.

Then queen Lisha asked him again, "who's the leader of your village apart from you?"

And Mr. Zain utter, "it's the three of us. That's I, Mr. Ding and Seneiro", as he identify them to the queen.

And they all bow to her with respect.

As queen Lisha ought to speak to them. That's when her eyes glares at Ixan standing quietly besides Ding. And she asked, "Ixan, the sword lady. Am I right?"

And Ixan smiled before she answered, "yes, it's me my lady. We're really grateful you're fine".

"I should thank you for your strength and support in this war. He's your father?" Asked queen Lisha referring to Ding.

And Ixan nodded her head, "yes my lady".

"It's your first time being here. We're giving a highly welcome to you again", she said. Then she looked besides them and she sounds, "commando pliph, I think it's time to take them to their houses so that they can rest and continue their schedules".

"Yes your highness", answered commando pliph with respect. And he gave them lead as the guests follows him.

As soon as they left, queen Lisha looked at prince pial and prince Yoon. "My children! You are all welcome back to our pride land", she said, trying to stood from the throne as both the princes walked to her. As prince pial kneel down in her front.

As prince Yoon utter, "we are happy to find you safe mother".

"Thank you my son", and she kindly placed her hand on prince pial's head, rubbing his hair. "I know you are tired pial. You should have some rest".

Prince Yoon frowned his face and sounds, "as expected. I am busy thinking about you and asking about your health but unluckily, mother didn't even bother about me". And he turned away his face.

As prince pial held his hand, making him kneel down with him.

"Now you see, we care about you. For once stop being jealous of your brother and allow us to leave in peace", added queen Lisha funnily.

As prince Yoon utter, "I cannot promise you that unless I went for a trip with my wife".

And they both laughed included princess Nar.

As queen Lisha looked at princess Nar, "will you mind to join this family princess?"

And princess Nar looked at her. "Sure it's my pleasure", she answered in excitement and embraced them all.

A moment, she released from the hug.

"Ooh no, have you sense something like ...", Sounded prince Yoon as he stood up, thinking of what to say.

"What?" Asked the queen. "Not odour?"

"Oh! Oh! It's ... I mean not enough air".

As queen Lisha slightly beats him, "silly, you will never change, always joking". Then she looked at prince pial before she added, "now I think you should all go back to your chambers. Refresh yourself and have some rest. I will personally send servants to you with the food".

"Yes mother", answered prince pial and he stood up.

As they were ready to leave with princess Nar.

Although queen Lisha called, "you should wait for a moment". Then she kindly walked to princess Nar before she brought out a small box. As she looked at prince pial before she turned to princess Nar, trying to open the box.
