"Hey what's that over there Veronica?"
The human second princess and her escort are in a carriage back to the palace after the earl was showing off his mansion to every noble that would come.
"I don't know but it's fast!"
There was a certain 'sky elf' in a mystical silver and golden robe flying at around the speed of 135 mph. It soon came down to down to the ground and slowed its pace.
"Let's go see what it is!"
The second princess was very curious to see what was flying around.
"Are...are you sure, princess?"
"Yes! Let's go!"
"As you wish princess."
The carriage soon arrived at an unconscious 'sky elf' and two humans carrying his body away. Veronica(the princess' escort) addressed them.
"What do you think you're doing?"
"Y-your majesty?! We were just going to sell this thing at the slave auction house!"
"Give it to me instead."
"P-princess!?"
They then gave the unconscious body of Moniker to Veronica. Veronica then put Moniker in the carriage and they went back to the palace.

The moniker was waking up. The first thing he saw was a ceiling that he didn't recognize. He then sat up. He was laying on a bed that was way too big for its own good. He realized that he didn't have his robe on.
"Where?"
He then checked where the arrow had hit. There was a bandage wrapped around his arm. His clothes were on a dresser a little way away from him. He put on his clothes and left the ground once again in favor of flying. It was morning.

He opened a portal back Scarlet's room. When he flew towards the portal however someone grabbed his hand. Someone he didn't knows. It was a young girl with golden hair and royal blue eyes.
"Where are you going?"
"Scarlet."
She was filled with pity and sorrow. She thought that he was in the wild all that time surviving.
"Here have some tea with me."
After a moment of hesitation, he closed the portal and followed the princess.
