The caravan arrived an hour after Darryl and her finished their bath and it was so lively and colorful to look at. So many beautiful carriages line up like ants from the Somer Village, passing through the bridge toward Pearl Haven then down the short road toward their humble abode.

The first carriage that arrived was of Baruk Tam and the Highest Lady Maru and when saw how grown up they were and the wedding band in Maru's ring finger, her eyes welled up and was very upset that she had not made it to the wedding.

​​

Soon more carriages came and when Xhemin saw Princess Song and Lady Lin, she cried even more.She hugged Princess Song endlessly and kissed the child whom she raised at the East Mountain, so was Lady Lin who had gone more beautiful that the last time she saw her.

"How come you are so grown up?" Xhemin clasped both her hands on Princess Song's face, very surprised at how she looked.

"It had been such a long time healer," Princess Song just allowed her to check every inch of her. "I even thought you are not going to come back anymore,"

"Healer, you still looked as beautiful as you once were," Lady Lin could only compliment at the sight of her beauty. "It's as if you had not grown old. Not a bit,"

"Don't flatter me right now," She turned to Lady Lin. "Of course I had grown old. Look I have children now,"

"They were very lovely, healer," Highest Lady Maru noted. They had seen the kids already as Baruk Tam brought them to his household earlier and everyone cannot help but be glad about them. It seemed surreal that after many years believing they were dead already, they turned up alive and well.

"Wolfe just looked like the hero," Lady Lin emphasized and dragged his eyes to Wolfe who right then was trying to be a big man, helping the servants as they unload the gifts brought by their visitors.

"The girl unfortunately doesn't look like any of you, but her attitude does resemble yours slightly," Princess Song also expressed her observation. They were so thrilled to see the two specially that she and Lady Lin was the first one to know that Xhemin was pregnant before. They all celebrated her pregnancy then and had gone real sad when they heard the unfortunate news of their child dying from the accident. Who would have thought the one that died had siblings and right then they were running around the hero's house making it full of warmth.

"She does look like the hero's younger sister actually. A very good replica," Xhemin told them.

"Oh healer, we are so happy you are back," Highest Lady Maru beamed at it and they could only hug each other once more at the very thought of it. It was such a heartwarming reunion and Xhemin understood fully then why her husband decided to stay in the Manggan Island after all the troubles they had, it was just the perfect place for healing and new beginnings.

While the royals gathered at Xhemin to welcome her, a line of servants came and bowed at them. They were all handmaids and Xhemin of course dragged her eyes to acknowledge their presence and was surprised to see her very own handmaid's lining up.

"Handmaid Si," She blurted and ran to hug the girl she first recognized. In her whole stay in the Chieftain's household, it was handmaid Si whom she was very close with. She also turned to the other girls and hugged them separately.

"I'm Lady Si right now healer," her previous handmaiden told her. "I was just promoted recently and was sent with these ladies as a gift to the hero's household."

"A gift?"

"Brother Enoch insisted you should have servants now," It was Princess Song who explained it. "You have kids now healer and the hero's household is a bit big already. The Chieftain insists you should have handmaids to help you with the chores,"

"But...but…"

"Not buts," Lady Lin interjected. "Don't worry about them. They were all going to stay in the east wing created for Princess Song and would only enter the main wing if you allow. Lady Si for sure knows your preference for things so no need to worry about adjusting to much,"

"Did my husband allow it?" Xhemin asked. Darryl then was busy attending the men that was why she could not ask him right away.

"He was the one who requested it," Lady Si announced. "He even asked for me to personally managed the household so I was retracted from the management of the first princess chambers,"

Lady Si, prior to this new set up, had been assigned to the first princess chambers. The first child of the old Chieftain whom he lost. For years, the chieftain had kept a chamber, properties and servants in her name that when Xhemin became a princess, she stayed and managed her chambers. That was how handmaid Si became her handmaiden before.

"It seems that your husband doesn't want to keep your hands full," Highest Lady Maru noted. "I think previously he didn't think about this as there was only the two of you. But now you had children, you needed help raising them,"

"I don't really have problems with it as long as my husband consents," Xhemin announced. She then turned to Lady Si and the rest of her previous handmaidens "Besides I really do miss you girls. It would be fun to live with you again,"

"We also miss you healer. It would be such an honor to manage your household again," The handmaidens expressed their great appreciation for and sat to attend to the great ladies that had been conversing with each other.

The reunion that afternoon was so full of tears, joy and fun that even Willow and Wolfe enjoyed it. Seeing new culture and new people did overwhelm them, making them inquisitive and curious. Good thing they had a big family in Manggan Island and so there were many people and servants who patiently explained to him all the things they became interested in.

Seeing how great things were, Xhemin could only sigh with satisfaction. Finally after many years, she had finally come to a place where she can think of nothing but herself, her husband and her children.
