The night was still young, but Anne was already tired, she look up to seeking Edward walking side by side with her. They walked to the front garden of the house. There’s a small maze garden where they can speak without everyone hearing them.

Inside the maze, there’s a patio with a bird cage, an empty bird cage. They settled inside the patio where she uncomfortably wait for king Edward to speak.

King Edward took a sigh and smile awkwardly at her. “I am sorry to interrupt your time to rest, but what I am going to discuss with you is a matter of a secret.”

Looking at how nervous a king is, Anne already guessed that this was an important conversation. “I was already guessed when you seem distraught after the knowledge of my lack of magica.”

“Yes, possible because of that…” He tried to give her a smile, but it come more like a wince, “I… I need to say, I was so nervous because, somehow, you really fit the prophecy except for one thing.”

“Prophecy? What prophecy?” Anne asked the king with more curiosity than before.

“Did you know about the round table tribe?” Rather than answering her question, the king gave another question to Anne.

Anne nods her head, “Yes, Vale once told me about his late grandfather that came from this mysterious tribe.”

“Ah, Vale’s grandfather, and also one of the greatest alchemists that came for the tribe. I knew his story because my late father always told me about his achievement.” King Edward reminisced with a warm smile appear on his face, “Many magi came from the tribe. I guess I was an exception.”

.....

“Wait, round table tribe is your tribe as well, his majesty?” Anne was surprised by the fact, while the king was chuckling at her.

“You seem surprised about the fact, young miss?”

Seeing the face of king Edward, Anne then said, “Yes, I was surprised, because Vale told me that the tribe always lived in secrecy.” She look at the king and shrugged her shoulder, “Vale I can understand, since he never actually was inside the tribe, but you… You came from the tribe.”

“Yes, I came from the tribe. I was born and raised there until I got my silver pass after I safe a noblemen’s daughter.” King Edward lean on the seat and took a deep breath, “Let’s go back to the prophecy. This is actually the prophecy that the elder of my tribe teaches us on Monday at school. They call it a tale of two worlds, a story about a young woman who was living a miserable life in her world, but when she tripped inside a black tunnel, she arrived in another world.”

Anne almost lost her breath. The prophecy is about her, her miserable life, and she was being thrown into this completely different world. “Then what happened to the woman?”

“She found herself to be younger but lack the power of the new world and finally decided to live as a daughter of a childless couple. She was happy until four men came into her life. She was the child of the outsider but could be potentially found the key to open the door and lift the curse.” King Edward was finished with his story and now waiting for any kind of reaction from Anne. “So, tell me, young miss, did you really come from another world?”

Let out a sigh, she looked directly into king Edward’s eyes and said, “Yes, I came from another world, nine years ago, as an eleventh-year-old, a healer couple take me into their house and adopted me as their daughter.”

“Oh, by God! You’re real?! You’re not just a tale from a crazy elder.” He was amazed by her, and quite frankly, has a conflicted feeling. “Then it means the curse is real? I hope not.”

“Err… excuse me, what kind of curse?” Asked Anne to him.

“Good question, I don’t know either. I knew the tale but never bothered to read the whole prophecy, the elder told us just the portion of the tale… and there’s also that…” Said king Edward, he then pointed at her hair, “The elder always told us that the girl has an exquisite auburn hair, your hair color, is an unusual color of purple, not auburn.”

She touched her hair out of habit. All the details of the story were matched, but why do they don’t have the same hair color? What makes her so special? Why is it that the prophecy of the round table got one detail wrong? Anne was nervous, and also excited, finally some answer for her.

“How can I get in touch with the tribe?” Anne asked him. Now she was eager to learn more about the prophecy.

“It would be almost impossible for an outsider to go inside the tribe unless there’s a member of the tribe that accompanies you.” King Edward gave her another hurdle. “How about if I go with…”

“No, his majesty, she will be going with me.” A voice came from the bushes of the maze garden. Vale appears with Justice, Xavier, and Henry. Vale approached them and hold Anne’s hand. “Even though I was born outside the tribe, my late grandfather and my late mother was a member of the tribe.” His emerald green eyes stare into Anne. “I’ll go with her.”

Flustered by their appearance, she hissed at Vale, demanding answers, “What are you doing here? Were the four of you snooping?”

A frown came into Vale’s face. “What does snooping mean?”

King Edward glared at his son. “Justice, you shouldn’t be here. This prophecy is about this girl, and I will be the one who accompanies her.”

“No, we will go with her, all of us,” said Justice, he stands in front of his father. “As you also probably knew by now, father, we were also mentioned in the prophecy, remember? The four men who came into her life.”

“That was us, obviously.” Said Xavier with folded hands on his chest.

“Well, and also the fact that we promise ourselves to be with her in every way possible,” Henry explained to him with a wink at Anne.

Standing up from his seat, king Edward told his son, “Fine, as soon as we were finished dealing with this problem, we are going to visit Gendry town.”

“Wait, you’re coming as well?” Asked Justice to his father.

Glaring at his son, king Edward gave him a pat on his shoulder, “Oh, yes, son, and your mother will hear about this.” He waves goodbye to all of them and with final words, “Go back to bed, tomorrow we are going to save prince Javier.”

The night was indeed still young, but Anne now could see clearly the way to the truth about her who washed away into another world.
