The man was about six foot tall, jet black hair that is slicked back, and dressed in red and white. He walked up beside me, and I looked up to him and arrogantly asked, "And who are you?"

He looked down and stated, "I have a proposition to make to you and your slave."

I looked back straight ahead and told him, "She isn't my slave. She is free, and she is my best friend. What is your proposition. It better be good now."

He bowed to me and said, "My sincerest apologies. I did not know. My proposition is that you come to the capital with me, and improve your skills there while teaching the princess. You will be rewarded accordingly, don't worry."

I moved my eyes toward him without moving my head, and looked him up and down. I finally responded, "It is a very tempting offer, but I have to consult my parents and Tetia's father first."

He looked at me and stated, "Of course, I will accompany you two back home, and ask them myself."

Just when he finished Tetia walked back toward us. I told her the situation, and when she questioned it, he showed her a Royal medallion proving himself. We picked the supplies back up and headed back home.

Mom and Dad were initially stand offish with it, but was eventually convinced. Comparatively Fetus's Dad loved the idea. Demi-humans would never get the chance to learn at the capital as equals normally. Now the party was to not only to celebrate my sibling's birth, but now also this surprise occasion. The first thing that happened the next day was Tetia and my leave from our only home that we have ever known. Before we left Dad gave me a katana, and told me that this sword was passed down from generation to generation. It will protect me well. Tetia's father gave her a necklace, and whispered something in her ear. After we said our goodbyes we were off.

It was a very long and boring journey to the capital, but when we got there I was speechless. I have never seen such a huge city in my life. I thought this city was perfect from the outside. When I saw the inside though, I realized I was mistaken. The outskirts of the city was filled with poor demi-humans and some elves. Tetia hid her face in my chest as we passed them. They were all so dirty you could barely see their features. It got steadily better the closer to the castle we got, but the images left in my mind are unforgettable. We finally went into the castle to meet the princess after a full day of travelling. I wonder what the princess looks like.
