Chapter 14 - Closed Doors

Kasren went to castle with all of his forces. He was in despair and relentless till he arrive to the castle. He didn't speak much. He ordered his man to rest. There were only one day road to the castle. Kasren sat down close the fire and started to watch it. Yyuer also came and sat beside him. Giving care and showing emotions were not something she could do easily.

Yyuer: Can you see our comrades? Your soldiers?

Kasren: What do you mean Yyuer?

Yyuer: They swore to follow you till death. They won't stop doing that. However, we can not win without motivation. If they see you like that, they will lose their hope and desires. We already are walking on a thorny path. You are our leader. You should cut those thorns not make them sharper.

Kasren: You are right but I can't laugh while we have death brothers.

Yyuer: You are so young your highness. You wanted to be a king, a leader. Seeing blood and death is your destiny. I feel like my heart is broken to pieces when I think you have to live like that. However, you must to. 

Kasren: Yyuer. Yyuer. I saw many thing during my short life. I became sad and cried many times. Even after everything, my hearth can't handle to see someone leaving me.

Kasren was talking with a cold and emotionless face but Yyuer were able to see him crying to from inside.

Kasren: You can't leave me Yyuer. You can't leave my side, I won't allow it. 

Yyuer: Of course not your highness. I am your dagger, your shadow.

Kasren: No, Yyuer. You are my heart. You are my family. You are my gem. And Yyuer, I will find the treatment. Even it cost my life.

Yyuer: Don't talk like that please. We need you. We can not find happiness and peace without you.

Kasren: I will work hard to bring peace to these lands. 

Yyuer: One last thing my prince. You can not address me as your heart in front of people. People my misunderstand.

Kasren: I don't care. I see you as my big sister. I won't ask anybody to how I can address you.

Yyuer: You are stubborn as ever.

Kasren: You know me well.

They both laughed and smiled for a moment. She managed to make Kasren relieved a little bit. 

Kasren: Yyuer. I am planning to slow down our speed. I will close the gates for the upcoming winter. They are already at war so they can't attack us during winter. We can stationed on a defensive position. We already stabilized our region. We must improve our power.

Yyuer: You thought well but you need to boost our morale. Soldiers need you and your motivation.

Kasren: I know. Right now we are inexperienced warriors. I will make them sharp blades.

Yyuer: No matter what, I will stay beside you and follow you my prince.

Kasren: I am so grateful to have you Yyuer.
