The Queen’s Guard.

My Darling Queen,

I write you this letter with so much adoring love. I'm afraid I will soon fall into my enemies trap. Do not worry, for even though I shall be caught soon, I leave you in safe hands. I've sent instructions to our royal guards to always keep watch over you- at all times.

P.S. I will find a way to escape from my foes clutches. Then, I'll be reunited with you my heart's most dearest.

With unending love,

Your valiant King!

Queen Vrekuth: (Sobbing) No!

Princess Hajira: Mother?... What's the matter?

Queen Vrekuth: Your father has been captured by our enemies.

Princess Hajira: (Crying) What, but how? He's the best leader and warrior in the whole kingdom.

Queen Vrekuth: That is true pumpkin.

Princess Hajira: I shall keep training then. I will rescue him from the enemies clutches.

Queen Vrekuth: That will not be necessary my little one. Let Mummy handle this.

Later that night, while all the rest of the people in the kingdom were asleep. The Queen had other plans in store for the night.

She travelled to the local magician's store that was by the side of the village market. There she had a meeting with the magician.

Salan: Ah, Queen Vrekuth. To what do I owe the pleasure of your presence here in my humble quarters.

Queen Vrekuth: I seek your help and wisdom Salan. The King has been captured by our foes.

Salan: There is always a solution to every situation, or sequence in life.

Queen Vrekuth: What do you suggest we do?

Salan: You have to look really deep within your powers and use them to save the beloved King.

Queen Vrekuth: (Shakes her head) No, there must be another way.

Salan: Unless you want to be in charge of the kingdom all by yourself. I do not see any other way to save the King.

Queen Vrekuth thanks Salan for his advice and then heads to the well by the tree in the royal garden.

Then she speaks a chant and looks into the well:

O, man in the well...

Listen to my tale.

A dear King-

Who loves to sing,

Has been taken...

Away from me,

Come forth- I say..

Go find him.

Now, for a day...

Leave this kingdom..

Go find my dear-

Let him come back here..

My voice and wish please hear-

O, man from the well....

Once the Queen completed her spell cast. A water creature from the well, moved from his dwelling place and followed the King's trail.

The King would be quite surprised to discover who it was that would save him from his demise. His Queen may not have been the best fighter, but she sure was the most powerful female conjurer in all the land.
