"What?...,you look really surprised to see us, ain't you Aldric?"agrion asked his voice and gaze as murderous as he gazed at me "that look I've seen it before" I thought getting a memory which wasn't mine but Aldrics

"Ca I play with you?"young Aldric asked walking towards his brother's who were having a lot of fun but they totally ignored him and when he tried asking again they attacked him beating him up until he fell straight down the floor "stay down that's where you belong, we may be related but you're nothing like us, you're just a mistake made by our father"agrion said with the same look he had on now "and if you ever mistake us to be equals, it'll cost you a limb or two" liant warned walking away with agrion leaving Aldric to cry alone on the floor, "need help?"a voice asked from behind, it sounded new to me but familiar to Aldric "sister vanile?"Aldric called standing and giving her a hug "yes, its me"she said reciprocating the hug "who else's gonna come help you when you get bullied, you really need to stand up for yourself more"she advised with a smile as Aldric held unto her not letting her go.

"So he's like me huh?" I asked feeling the rage Aldric had kept with him for so long "and she was always there to protect me....where is she now?"I wondered my gazed at agrion who still had his gazed fixed on me. "I'd love to take my leave now father, I promise we'll finish this conversation when it's more convenient"I said turning around and heading towards the door when I felt someone holding my shoulder and stopping me from moving, "when it more convenient?" Liant asked angrily "look ladric, we just arrived and no ones stopping you from speaking with father" liant continued but I knew if I remained in this room I'd do something I'd regret later "I wanna leave, let go off me liant" I threatened as liant suddenly let me go, he felt fear but I couldn't care less why "ok ... You can leave"liant said as he watched me walk out of the dukes quarter "such blood thirstiness, that can't be the Aldric I remember" agrion thought his hands shaking.

"Lord Aldric hold up"vaelis called running after me as I walked down the stairs heading for the hallway which led to a huge door leading to the mansions entrance. "Lord Aldric please hold on"she yelled again running as I felt some kind of da' ja vu (reika please slow down a little) not able to keep up vaelis slipped (trips and falls) , "don't worry, I got you "I said holding her before she hit the floor, this only reminded me of the world I came from before reincarnation but that was all in the past now "you okay?"I asked stareing at vaelis who remained motionless while stareing at me "yes, I'm fine Lord Aldric"vaelis responded getting off my arms and quickly turning around, her face as red as a rose "are you sure you're okay?"I asked again as she replied with a nod "okay then"I said turning around and heading for the huge doors but to my greatest surprised the door was already open and at the entrance waited a chariot and two charioteers, an elite knight and a fat guy who wore a red robe, he looked like he had brought something important with him as he quickly requested to meet the grand duke
