THE DREAM 2
Back at the palace;
2 months after the celebration of the birth of the twins,
the queen decided to take a stroll around the palace with two maids carrying each of her child,
one for Astra and the other for Kael.
she walked until she reached the maids quarters and was turning around to leave when she heard the painful cry of a baby.
She turned around to look at her babies but found non crying.
she was puzzled, she listened carefully, and realised that the cry was coming from the chief maids room.

Roselyn was in the middle of bathing the baby given to her when she accidentally scrubbed to hard, and now this, has led to the presence of the queen Elara in her room.
ROSELYN
I stared at the queen in shock, she looked at me from head to toe until her piercing gaze finally settled on the child wrapped in a little towel in my arms.
where did you get this child; she asked walking towards me, and when she arrived in front of me, she glared at me awaiting my answer.
She was found and brought in to be raised as a maid; i finally replied
Queen Elara's gaze softened a bit as she stared at the child, giving me one final look of suspicion, she turned, leaving my room.
i could only sigh and look at the child in my arms.
"I never gave you a name"
Sera or Sage; i asked smiling
Sage it is, it suits you.

The near by town;
It's been two months since her daughter got missing, she has been trying various ways to find her child but all her efforts seem useless.
Her grandmother stood by the window watching her sit stiffly and expressionless. She sighed before going to sit beside her.
she knew her granddaughters fear and she could sense the danger ahead.
