Talios-Chapter 62: Mass
Looking at the disappearing back of the two Ajab’s face was outright deadpan. "I really wasn’t wondering." He sighed as he turned to Liah who was there the whole time. In steady steps he walked straight till he got to her face. "You heard it right?" He said, his voice still hoarse, but firm.
She had bowed at his approach, now she gazed into his eyes, their paleness was worrying, he really needed to shower she thought, before circling back to the question. "A lot of things were said, I’m not sure which His Highness is referring to."
Ajab raised a brow, as much as a lot really was said, he only thought it not too much of a loss, since he had gained something right from the beginning. "I have a free rein with the Royal Treasury."
Laih was puzzled, her eyes closing in a squint, she wasn’t following. "Your Highness?"
"Mother said I get snacks."
"Oh." Made sense, but still. "I’m not sure she meant a free rein Your Highness."
Ajab’s expression didn’t change, like he had need to bother himself, all that mattered was that she bore witness. "I’ll be taking my shower now." He said, as he stroded, his steps barely looking like that of a living being, one moment firm, the next frail, like he could collapse at any moment.
Getting to his bath tub and facing his reflection, Ajab wasn’t sure he wanted to be a part of the day, if only he had a way of skipping a day, or taking it out of the picture entirely, he sighed.
After his bath, seeing the robe being brought to him, caused him to sigh even more. After grandfather’s burial things were back to usual, at least for him. But only that now, they just might have gotten worse, since he’d have limited ways of escape.
According to the curriculum father had set for him, he had to be in the train grounds.
After dorning his robe, he walked out his room, Liah and the rest of his maids, trailing behind him. Getting out he saw a very familiar figure, standing at the front of his own chamber, his hands in a cross, his robe quite unusual at least for him. Seeing him —his robe more especially — Ajab frowned. Upon getting to him, he halted as he stared at him.
"Your own days of mourning doesn’t want to come to an end?"
Elmah bowed as he approached answering him with his head still bowed. "It’s just my attire for the day."
Ajab’s eyes still locked on him, his brows arched, the person before him, usually just went with damp colors or anything devoid of light and happiness, he only wore a bright white during the last days of the mourning, and now he was on a white?. "Your attire for the day? Who arranged it?" It was a pointless question as he already knew Elmah wore his own things according to however he wanted, something he kind of fell short of, having all his attires already pre-planned leaving him no room for alterations, suggestions or even refusal. But seeing him on a completely different attire, it really had to be caused by something else at the very least.
Elmah raised his head to met his Highness’s gaze. "I did."
A moment passed between them, just eyes locked and the little wind that decided to pass between them.
"Hm" was the only sound from Ajab as he withdrew his gaze, and continued walking, Elmah following, both were headed to the same destination —The Training Grounds.
The sight before the duo was one that brought them shock, their eyes wide, with a pinch of twitching for Ajab. The supposed Training Grounds were ulterly in ruins, from top to bottom. The base floor was the appointed train ground for Ajab, and from what he knew, the floors all the way up had whatever they had within themAlthough the duo were shocked, they were so for completely different reason
The Eunch brings the matter of Linh destroying the entire place before the King and it was interjected during the court proceedings, he had destroyed the palace treasures, did one know the cost of a single Grade 12 puppet that he even destroyed two Grade 13?

[Why was Ajab born weak. Why did it take the King very long to give birth to the Prince, what caused the Queen’s death by Childbirth]
"My wish is your command... Sorry your Wish is my command"
[So a war, where the weakest point is usually the most attacked, but instead the strongest point is attacked, whilst they were obviously defending the Weakest point, as lee normal, only to find out this ingenuity, was merely just outright, doings...if you know what I mean... He had no idea]
If he wants someone dead, strength doesn’t matter, they just Die

A special class for the Prince on aura

A fight between Elmah and Lant( despite Elmah’s abilities, he’s beaten to a pulp, stomped on the face. He has no aura nor does he posses color)
"Do you think you could just wake up one day and you’re strong all of a sudden"
"No body gets to be more arrogant than I in a room"
"Why did you buy that?"
"It was cheap"
"What!?" "If you were this thing wouldn’t you be cheap too?"
Remaining in a middle, not advancing, just barely escaping demotions (Duolingo, league moves)
A King’s hands are never tied
Stop being a child
The land is a construct from bloody wars, and a mix of varying lands won in battles
(Next scene, Liah wakes to greet him and then, the kitchen scene)
So okay, about Liah,(not clear yet, wether she comes in then or to join in cathing him sneaking to steal from the kitchen...)

#THEORIES
It is believed in this part of the world that the sun moves, besides there is always the moon light every night
Mystic beings (beasts, rare and wild, left to nature, and control their elements, the desert beast, controls the sands there, and causes the place to be inhabitable and barely passable, so it’s a waste land,
The King should own a Mystic being, it’s how he won against the mad King.
Elmah looked at those eyes, and was glad he lost em.
Ajab was blank for a few seconds too
Elmah could only remember his Higness’s eyes turning red as his aura changed, those eyes gave shivers
With his eyes Elmah can swap his chilling daggers between his hands
