"I never thought I would miss your rambling so much. I feel lonely for some reason . There is nobody to disturb me , pick silly fights with me , shouldn't I be happy ? Why am I so depressed then ? I pray you get all better soon . I can't see you like this ." Zen thought in his mind and left . It was night and palace was silent . He went to the basement where Erwin was imprisoned. He was sitting facing to the wall of his cell . Lifeless. There was no hope in his eyes.
"I can understand why there is no light in my eyes but what's with you. You seem to have lost light and shine in your eyes as well. The eyes which are feared by all ! "
"I bet you know well. I wonder if there was any light at all . "
"Why have you come here ? Free me , kill me ? To pass time ?"
"I think I came to kill you . Your deal was with me I just don't undestand why Alisha is suffering ! "
"Oh she hasn't woken up yet ? I bet she is into a coma. After all a soul like hers could never bear it . I feel guilty for doing so . "
"You !"Zen shaked tge bars of the cell.
"Your Attitude will lead her to death. I admit what I did was wrong . Lately I had been self introspecting myself. Nothing good came out of whatever I did up until now. I'll tell you something , nearby The valley of Valenstein there is a sketchy looking area with tribal people residing . Go there they will tell you a procedure to get A medicinal plant which grows on the peak of mountains in that area. It's called 'lunas' . The place is 's troublesome I'm warning you . "
"Give me a good reason to trust you ."
"Huh... I don't have a reason. It's all on you . Do it or ignore it I just did what I felt I had to ." Though Zen hated him he could see that hoe wasn't lying . There was another side of him that reflected honesty in his words. Zen left with Neil who was present silently witnessing the duo.
"Your Majesty ! Do you believe Erwin ?"
"I don't know . If at all it can heal Alisha I'll do anything . "
"Then allow me to....."
"No ! " Zen put down his request. " This is all my fault . I'll do it . You don't have anything to do with this . Nobody has . I'm solely responsible . "
"But Sir..."
"I'm not listening to you Neil. That's final . "
"Alright atleast allow me to accompany you to the place " He said knowing how persistent Zen could get .
"Alright ." He sighed and went back to his paperwork. They travelled to find the lunas hoping to to cure Alisha. The tribal women were kind of old and wrinkled . They wore long loose embroidered gowns of cotton. The place was a hill station, misty and cold. When Zen inquired about the plant they gave the description as Erwin did. Although one had to climb to the tallest mountain to search and get for it . Zen was ready to face all circumstances coming his way . As Neil waited down Zen carried his job climbing with his bare hands , rocky edges pierced his skin. His knees were tired of climbing . When he reached the top through a detour which was basically a thick forest . He wasn't scared of any creatures that would attack him nor the flies that stung him. By the time he could reach and search the desired plant it was night .
"Say ... Who Is this person the young man is so desperate for ?" The old woman asked noticing Zen's determination. Neil was dumbfounded. He swore not to reveal Zen's identity or the finer details.
"It's. .. His fiance ..."
