Chapter 7: the tomboy princess

  once again the little camp feels at peace as gora sits back down and makes herself comfy in their tent she looks at cofus and rex with a coy smile on her face and with a gentle voice she says”well get out then I’m exhausted from this whole ordeal.”

  rex and cofus look at her confusedly for a second what she might be talking about this is their tent.

  “Huh did i stutter? I’m a princes did you really expect me to put up my own tent? As your special guest its only right you give up your tent for me”

  She says in a quite matter the fact way that came across quite rude to the two red haired astrans. They look at her quite unhappily as cofus goes to get his stuff and quickly leaving the tent figuring its best not to argue with her. They step out of the tent and find a soft pce on the ground, luckily cofus had a spare bnket as gora had confiscated his to use for herself”who does she think she is? Taking two noble men of astra tent and forcing them to sleep outside.”

  Rex chuckles abit as he ys on the ground use to it”you better get use to sleeping on the ground cofus the battlefield is constantly moving you will not always have the luxury of a tent lets just be thankful its not cold”

  Cofus rolls his eyes to his seniors words”cant we we just take the courtiers tent?”

  Rex sighs and shakes his head” no sleeping outside wont hurt for a night cofus and this will be the end of it”

  cofus seems disinherited by this, but doesn’t dare to argue further lying down on the ground on top of his bnket as to not get dirty as rex just sleeps under it as the dirt doesn’t seem to not bother the old warrior in the slightest bit. Cofus scoffs at the savageness of his senior travel companion before calling it a night

  The next morning before anyone else wake up gora stumbles out of her tent holding a piece of papyrus in her right hand goes to wake cofus up by gently nudging him. Cofus would wake up to see dy grigora in front of him looking down at him bemusedly. A small bit of him was filled with fear as to what she might do next”i need a bow do you guys have one?”

  He takes a minute to process what she said as hes still quite groggy, not usually a morning person. When the words that came out of her mouth finally click he shakes his head and sits up”um ya i think there’s one one on my mount. Why-”

  Before he can finish his sentence gora thanks him and walks off towards his mount and begins searching his mount for said bow. Cofus now sits up looking confused for a minute before looking over to a still sleeping rex. Cofus sighs and rubs his eyes still trying to wake up. grigora eventually finds said bow and smiles contently to herself. walking up to a little mound of dirt that is off to the side of the camp and begins tying the little slit of paper to an arrow. After making sure the piece of paper is thoroughly attached to the arrow she slides it on her bow and begins focusing on the ndscape. After thinking about where she is she looks towards the direction of Doanertofia she closes her eyes suddenly her hair starts standing up bits of static come off her as she pulls the bow back she opens her eyes and makes her adjustments then releases the arrow. It hisses and crackles as its sent flying through the air at a speed not possible for a normal bow the string catches fire and snaps instantly. Rex jumps to his feet his hand on his sword as he looks around to see what just transpired. Gora smiles and walks back over to cofus and rex with a smile on her face.

  She tosses the bow to cofus not even bothering to stop and look at him”looks like you need to restring your bow sir cofus”

  cofus catches his bow and looks both in awe and angry. But before he can say anything she continues the conversation with rex “Morning sir rexan i have alerted my grandfather of my decision to help you fend off the luutons”gora smiles as she greets rex. Rex straightens himself up and dust himself off before returning her greeting

  “Morning dy grigora did you find our tent suitable?”rex replies in an honest tone

  She smiles and nods walking past him not carrying to continue the conversation she plops by the embers of the fire and throw some kindle and timber on top of the burnt out fire of list night. She snaps her fingers and the timber ignites”so what’s for breakfast?”

  rex and cofus sigh they had a feeling gora would be quite the handful though they’re not for sure who yet. After breakfast is cooked and ate our party starts again on the journey back to the capital of the astran kingdom there’s. A city pced in the center of the nds of astra so that he may keep peace in the nation without prejudice.

  Gora having never been to the nds of astra looks around amazed at the massive stone city.steering her horse over to every market stall they pass. rex cofus chuckle at their primitive travel companion as she gawks at the splendors of the astran city like some country bumpkin. As they continue down the street gora is continually impressed by the developed city though she also finds herself disgusted by the smell. Beast littered the street. there was someone responsible for sweeping any waste that might be produced. They load the waste onto wagons and while the streets aren’t spotless they are not filthy ether. Either way the stone streets were still always more clean than the dirt roads that run through Gora’s vilge. They eventually arrive at the pace gora is amazed to see the incredible stone pace. It was the rger than the block her grandfather paces was even found on.

  Her mouth gapes open with awe at the shear size of the building. Rex chuckles and pats her shoulder”impressive is it not? High king Onei called for the destruction of the two paces of the kings of the divided astrans to be destroyed so that the new kingdoms pace can be built within the center of our united kingdom.”

  Gora looks amazed at it while it was still not worth as much as her families tower of dragon remains and the many items that contain said remains the size alone is a feat of marvel. As she arrives at the front gate she watches amazed as it opens. She for once in her life felt impressed by the astrans she thought of them as a constantly warring people she didn’t think of them as fine architects she in her gross incorrect estimate is a bit humbled as she enters the pace to take her part in the upcoming war.
