Princess Lyn: Fleeting Dreams 494 Red stained memories Part 1

Being surrounded in that environment, it was only natural that she never thought of displaying her emotions. But even though she remained indifferent and unreadable, they still took advantage of her and when they had the opportunity, they tried to dispose of her. 

Her present lifestyle is one without worries and she is living a life of luxury. But even now she will never forget it. The smiles of those people when they disposed of her and when she returned.

Closing of your emotions or displaying them, both of them came with their fair share of trouble. If that's the case she merely had to combine them both.

"Lethia?" Kizaki said, concern laced her tone.

Her mother's words..

'Today my dream came true. But my evolvement is not over. The fire within me is burning so strongly. Just as the countless stars that adorn the night sky. 

Endless amount of people cast their light when they are in the center. Among them are the faint stars destined to light up the future.'

Once upon a time there was a time frame where she got along with her sister. No, there was a time where they shares a couple of conversations.

She remembers the exchange very well.

'Acchan, look Chrysanthemums. Did you know? In Greek methokogy, belides transformed in to a daisy to escape from the roman god. She was optimistic and happy while living in the forest, so the meaning of the Daisy is joy. One day, I want to become a bright star, shining brighter than anyone. A star that will bring joy like these daisies. '

She wants to become a perfect Queen. To obtain all the lands and make the Mist Kingdom number one. Even now that hasn't changed. But in the first place the only reason why she was able to truly break free of her chains is because of that young girl.

She despises her sister and yet at the same time she .. 'I want to be like her.'

Even though she was suffering, even though she was so close to happiness and would not reach out to it fully due to her fear. She could still smile. To smile, and openly declare her emotions. Sadness, anger, fear, hatred, sadness, joy, and love. 

Lyn could express it and tell everyone. Even though her sister is meant to be a trapped bird in a cage, in the end she is the most free.

"Lethia looked like she wanted to kill you." Zepher commented.

Lyn rolled her eyes. "If my sister can't keep calm when provoked, then she will have a hard time." That's right, the future Queen needs to be calm and collected no matter what the situation is.

Zepger chuckled. "The words of the future Queen huh?"

"I do want the throne." Lyn admitted.

These days she wants it more than she ants anything else. But, even if she wants the throne she hasn't forgotten.

Was this the only choice, the only outcome? Surely it wasn't. Surely there were other options. Options that don't involve her hurting someone precious. Even now her sister distraught face remained fresh in her memory. She's sorry. She stole it from you. Stole what was rightfully her sisters.

As the second heir, she should have no right to the throne. If it were any normal Kingdom. But this is the Mist Kingdom. The rules here differ than most places.

"Lyn."

Lyn glanced over.

"I think, to make your dream come true. You need to use your time more wisely. What is your dream?'

"My dream?" Lyn looked down at the ground. What is her dream? To become the Queen? But once she achieves that what will she do? What can she do?

"Is it something so embarrassing that you can't say it?"

"No! That's not it. I --I want to one day become the Queen. But even more than that I want to.. help Kazuya and Rhys."

Zepher smiles. "Yes. That's right. In that case, you already know what you have to do. You must not forget those feelings."

"But, if I do that won't I hurt mother?"

He shook his head. "I'm sure she already understands, what it is you want to do." 

"How come you understand it Zepher?"

Zepher laughed weakly. "Well, I wonder."

Her gaze softened when she heard his tone. "Answering me like that is unfair on me. But I do understand why. Tell me brother, back when your people captured me. I heard something from them."

"About?"

"The one you love."

At that comment Zepher looked embarrassed and she laughed. "I believe this is the first time I've seen such a look on your face." 

"Because I think it's high time you understand something. I already know everything that you've been up to. Those forces of yours, your meeting them later correct? Take me with you."

Its seems like she has no choice.

Ah, she is sorry Rhys. But it seems like she will be late home today.

...….

No matter how hard people try, it is difficult to coexist. 

Her gaze fell on the large group of dissatisfied people. A gathering of nobles? No a gathering of nobles with abnormal blood. A group of people with 'cursed' abilities like her. In the center of all of them is her.

Right beside her is the man who threatened her. The one who made her the leader of this group.

"I knew it! That woman will lead us to our deaths."

"She already killed several of our own under the disguise of suicides.."

"We can't co-exisit with her!"

"All of you have tried your best to negotiate with my sister's side this entire time. But it has not produced any results." Lyn mumbled.

'Listen Lyn, I don't think we should tell them what you discovered. If you say it then there will be bound to be war.'

Indeed if these people found out the truth of that incident, then they would surely cause problems. Right now it is already risky judging from their hostile behaviour towards her sister.If she isnt careful, who knows what would end up happening?

Ah, she can understand it a lot now. The reason why Allen wears a fake smile on his face. If he lets his true emotions show on his face it will affect the moral of the group.

She wonders what Zepher is thinking. Lyn managed to get him in and told him to hide, but surely this sea of dissatisfaction upsets him? She recalled his expression earlier when he said with determination to let him come along.

It seems like the people surrounding her are truly fools. It is no wonder her sister thinks that she can take advantage of the people who care for her.

Rather than let her sister take advantage of them she would rather end it herself.
