Burning Soul

“Kid!

Miss, I’m behaving my best just because Lord says you are his guests!

He nodded his head and then stepped forward making a little bow to Dimitri. His face had absurd expressions and his eyes looked keen when he was speaking; peering straight at Merida. The way of answering and the gestures which he was doing while talking showed no respect in it which made Merida vicious and her face turned red in colour.

"I’m amazed at the fact that outsiders like you are walking along with our lord while deceiving him!” He was clearly overlooking the presence of the Ruler himself and was being full of himself!

“What are you implying Flynn?” Dimitri overlooked the crowd made outside the Cathedral with vicious eyes and wasn’t happy to see what was going on! Enormous annoying questions were rising up in his head seeing the situation.

As a Ruler, his authority was being tested which he didn’t like a bit!

“My lord!

Allow me to explain what happened and what was the root of all this before you judge any of our actions."

His tone of voice was slightly indicating disrespect for the other people's present there.

"You may as well know the Glorious 'North Wind' Church never acts on its own unless the people of our kingdom are in danger or the threat is determined by the God of Justice himself!"

God of Justice is one who makes the concept of a proper proportion between a person's desert what is merited and the good and the bad things that befall or allotted to him. He is regarded as the solar deity who exercised the power of light over darkness and evil. In this capacity, he became known as the God of Justice and equity and was considered the judge of both God's and men's.

No one has ever seen him but the people who have seen say; his looks are very elegant, his eyes are long like petals of a blooming lotus, his complexion is as enchanting as an emerald and the fully opulent Supreme Personality, who is all auspicious for the entire universe.

"This eyesore of a creature here treated one of our kin with the lowest respect and humiliated among others!”

“Liar!” Ember jerked her body and elevated her eyebrows upward viciously and pulled them closer which caused vertical wrinkles to appear at the centre of her forehead and yelled back at his accusation,

“My Lord,

The vow says, ‘Thou shalt never lie as thou must bear the God’s will!’

I never lie! That is my vow!

This creature is not a beastmen or Human, neither is fit to be in the civilized territory!

As of a few fleeting moments ago, this one decided to take a stroll at the Snuggles Resto.

Instead of taking her portion and leaving in peace, she ended up eating every single dish in their possession, not only that, when this kid…” Flynn pointed towards a young guy who looked a bit beaten up, “Decided to speak up to her, she scared him off after trashing him well! His wounds are proof of her acts not only that, the form she used to scare him off was inhuman and unknown to our arts as well!

I may as well suggest undertaking this matter seriously as today one of us was hurt here, but a while ago...” as he continued his tone got a bit scary, “An entire village was wiped out by an unknown individual. Am I wrong?

This created an awful silence in the area, almost everyone was having a questioned look. It was natural as no one had made this news public yet. As the tragedy was so baffling, spreading the word without knowing what happened would have caused panic!

But Lord Flynn had done it now!

“I believe we must investigate this matter with utmost priority, and as we don’t have a clue who was involved in this tragedy, this creature here…” He referred to Ember, “And her acquittances in custody until we have an explanation!

“You are taking this matter too far Lord Flynn!

I understand the Church’s concern, but as a Ruler! I do hold some responsibilities!

The priority takes on the investigation, but at the same time, we must not treat our guests like that, am I wrong?

That’d be so un-beastly of us!” His reply caused people to rethink a bit, not for long,

“That being said, I hear one of the guests is a wanted criminal, not only that, but an entire nation is also in search of this individual! Sheltering such people isn’t so Un-beastly as well My Lord!” As he said, he pulled out a flyer with Naomi’s portrait on it!

‘It’s definitely his doing!’ Aeneas had a feeling that this flyer was put out to slow them down any further by one possible suspect, Arlo!

“Witnesses say that this person was spotted in the vicinity of Arnor, and not only in our kingdom but in this capital city rather on the very Royal Chariot!

Now! I don’t hold any accountability to question you,

But people do! And they ask things that they find difficult to understand, don’t they?

That is the sole reason why I must carry out my duties as the Chosen One!

I think I have given enough reasoning to you as well, My Lord!”

His words caused an uproar, people were yelling in mixed tongues, what just happened was nothing anyone had seen coming!
