Dagan could hardly stand still, he became more restless in his movements'. King Eros, stood-up, from his magnificent, gold - encrusted-throne. Heavy in stature, he came slowly towards myself, and Dagan.
Dagan stepped away, leaving me in full view of the King.
" Name yourself, my child . " He said, with a deep embroiled voice.
I felt afraid to answer, for I had never stood before a king, before. I had lost my courage .
Dagan interrupted with a small fidgety sound , moving again with signs' of agitation.
" She call's herself Georgie, Sir ". He said.
" She is without doubt, the girl of the legend, Sir ". He said, raising his voice, higher as he spoke.
As I stood there, I felt the King's glare, he studied me from top to bottom, leaving no trace of my appearance unturned. The King spoke,
" From this day, you will be addressed as, Elena " .
He moved back across the transparent floor, up to the steps' that were embedded with rose petals', and seated himself, once again, on his throne.
" Dagan ", he proceeded to speak,
" Call for a banquet, the biggest we shell hold, in my Kingdom, of Abdon. "
Dagan hurried away, leaving me standing before the king. With uncertainty, I stood as still as I could, trying not to move.
" You are Princess Elena, your quest is to redeem our city ". He said.
Still unable to raise my voice any higher than that of a breaking branch, I spoke.
" I am sure your wrong ".
" I am never wrong, I am King Eros!. Remember this, if you are to remember nothing more " .
I stood there with a terrible feeling of awkwardness, as I fell silent.
