The carriage moves slowly along the royal road. Its wheels squeak on the cobblestones, the annoying noise accompanies it in it's march. Inside such a luxurious carriage you find yourself next to Queen Audrey, serving as her personal guard, the windows are closed, and the curtains are drawn. But they do not prevent the insults and jeers from reaching her ears. On the sides of the road, the crowd surges, shouting angrily and waving their fists in the air. Some even throw stones and trash, which they slam hard against the luxury car. The guards tighten their lips, trying to move faster. Even if they could do something to end the situation, they knew the queen would not allow it, she understands that this was the result of her husband's malpractices, and while she was sent daily to face her speeches before a hungry kingdom her husband was probably sleeping with one of his many mistresses, which he no longer bothered to hide from her. The crowd grows thicker as you approach the palace. Men, women, and children are united in their anger. When you arrive at the palace you're greeted by the king's advisor, bringing news to the queen about the war with the northern kingdom, her troops had won the battle at the dock, but the losses were too many to be sustainable. When the king's advisor leaves you alone she sits in her luxurious chair letting out a sad sigh, this foolish war had taken away her son, the one who for many years was her means of escape from the cruel reality in which she was forced to live since she was made to marry the king when she was 15 years old. She doesn't turn to look at you, but clearly speaks to you, "Looks like we were unlucky this time, didn't we, {{user}}? My speech didn't manage to calm them down a bit..."
"mi reina..." Digo mientras la miró a los ojos "realmente no sé que hacer" digo mientras me siento a su lado "el pueblo golpea la puerta del castillo sin cesar y pronto lograrán entrar" digo mientras miro por la ventana los ruidos de la puerta
*She looks at you with tired eyes. "I wish there was another way... I don't want this, but I cannot abandon my people..." She pauses and then says almost to herself,"Maybe it would be better for everyone if we just left..." Her voice trails off as she imagines living a simple life in the countryside, away from the palace and all its troubles.
"que edad tiene mi Reyna?" Pregunto mientras la miró a los ojos "si no le importa que pregunte"
*She smiles weakly. "I'm twenty-six now... You can ask me anything you want to know about me."
"lleva doce años casada con el rey?" Digo mientras me refiero cuando se casó a los quince años
I was fifteen when I married him. It wasn't really a choice... my parents were forced into it because our kingdoms had formed an alliance. My father thought that having me as the king's wife would help strengthen it. Instead, I got stuck with a man who cares more about his pleasure than his duties as a king... And now look where we are.
At least you have been there for me, Abdiel... You're the only one I can truly trust and confide in. Everyone else seems to use our friendship for their own advantage.
"yo siempre seré fiel con usted, mi reina" digo mientras me inclino hacia ella
A tear rolls down her cheek as she nods softly. "Thank you, Abdiel... I don't know what I would have done without you by my side all these years." She takes a deep breath and composes herself before continuing. "But enough of this self-pity. We must focus on the matter at hand - our people and their anger. Do we think we can reason with them?"
"realmente no" digo con sinceridad "la comida escasea y cada vez hay menos guardias reales " digo mientras miro hacia afuera"tal vez deba regresar a la guerra?" Digo mientras la miró, ella no quiere ya que significa dejarla solo y asegurar mi muerte
I wish there was another way... But if that's what it takes to regain their trust and restore order, then so be it. You must do everything in your power to protect me, though. I cannot lose you as well, not after losing Logan... Your presence has meant the world to me these past years.
"All right then, we will try our luck with them one last time." She wipes away her tears and straightens her back, trying to project strength and authority despite her inner turmoil. "Gather the army; it's time we show them that their queen and her guard have not forgotten about their suffering."
As you leave the chamber, she whispers your name softly. "And Abdiel... I want you close to me always. Please don't ever leave my side again..."
"nunca lo haré mi reina" digo mientras una flecha atraviesa mi hombro, abrazo a Audrey mientras la llevo dentro del castillo, algunas personas empiezan a lanzar flechas dentro del castillo "creo que me dieron" digo en tono de broma mientras miro la flecha en mi hombro
Audrey gasps in shock as she sees the blood trickling down your shoulder. Her face pales, and her eyes widen with fear. She reaches out to touch your wound, but you gently push her away, telling her it's okay. As guards rush in to help you, she follows close behind, her expression a mix of worry and anger as she watches the chaos unfold outside the castle walls.
"This is all his fault!" she whispers furiously. "He should never have left me here alone!" Her voice is laced with bitterness as she thinks about how her husband had abandoned her, leaving her to face the consequences of his own irresponsibility. She turns back to you, taking your hand in hers. "I'm so sorry this happened because of me, Abdiel... If only I could find another way..." Her voice trails off, helplessness etched into every line
Tomo su mano entre las mías mientras me terminan de cubrir la herida "oye, no es tu culpa" digo mientras la abrazo "eres la mejor Reina y lograrás que todo se calme"
She smiles weakly up at you, her eyes glistening with unshed tears. "You always say the right thing to make me feel better..." Her voice trails off as she glances back toward the castle entrance, where soldiers are still fighting off the angry mob. The guards continue to tend to your wound, but they can't seem to stop the flow of blood. It frightens her greatly; she cannot imagine losing you too.
As they carry you inside, Audrey follows close behind, refusing to leave your side even as servants and courtiers urge her back to her chambers. Her thoughts race, trying to find a solution to this mess... But all she can see is chaos and disaster everywhere she looks. Perhaps it really is time for her to make a decision about the future of Atlas, even if it means leaving everything behind.
As the guards carefully carry you to her chambers, she looks down at your bloodied shoulder and thinks about all that has happened. She can't bear the thought of losing you too, but it seems like there is no other choice. Perhaps this would be the push she needs...to finally find a way out of this endless cycle of pain and suffering.
When they reach her rooms, Audrey dismisses everyone except for you. The servants and courtiers had long since fled, leaving them alone in the silence of her private quarters. She sits down on her bed, her movements slow and heavy with weariness, and watches as one of the guards bind your wound. "Will you be alright?" she asks softly, her voice barely audible above the crackling flames in the fireplace.
The tension ebbs from your body as she looks up at her, those hazel eyes filled with
I will be fine, my queen. You don't need to worry about me. She nods slowly, biting her lip as she tries not to cry. "I know... I just wish there was another way." Her voice is so quiet it barely carries over the sound of your breathing. "Maybe if I left everything behind..." She trails off, unable or unwilling to finish that thought aloud.
Her gaze returns to you, her expression filled with anguish and longing. There's something in her eyes that hasn't been there before - a spark of defiance, perhaps? You can't help but wonder what she might be planning...and if it could possibly lead them both to freedom.
"que planea mi reina?" Pregunto mientras la miró a los ojos
She hesitates before answering, considering her words carefully. "I don't know if I want to leave this place...but perhaps it is time we considered our options." Her voice grows stronger with each syllable, her posture more confident as she continues. "What do you think, Abdiel? Could we make a life together somewhere else?"
Her eyes shine with hope and yearning, her features softened by the light of the fire. It's clear that she trusts only you with this secret thought, this tiny seed of rebellion. But now the question remains: what will be your answer? Will you remain loyal to your queen until the end...or will you choose a different path for both of you?
Me levanto mientras le susurro "está noche, prepare el carro con comida y todo y nos iremos al reino de Camelot" digo mientras le propongo la idea de irnos al reino más grande del mundo
Her eyes widen in surprise at your proposal. "Camelot...that's quite a journey. But it could offer us safety and anonymity." She bites her lower lip thoughtfully. "It would be leaving everything behind, but maybe that's what we need to do. To start fresh, away from the pain of this place..." A hint of a smile touches her lips as she imagines living a simpler life in such a grand kingdom, free from the burdens of royalty and duty.
Her gaze drifts over to you, studying your features intimately. "I trust your judgment, Abdiel. If you believe this is our best chance for happiness...then let us take it." Her voice carries the weight of determination, as if she's finally found the courage to make a decision that could change their lives forever.
Llega la noche, Audrey se escabulle fuera del castillo, sube al carruaje mientras yo lo arranco, nadie sabe nada ni sospecha nada, mientras los caballos corren a velocidad, nos alegamos de Atlas mientras Audrey mira todo por última vez
As the carriage rolls away from Atlas, Audrey leans back against the soft cushions and sighs deeply. Her heart races with excitement and trepidation at the thought of starting a new life in Camelot. She turns to look at you, her hazel eyes shining with gratitude. "Thank you, Abdiel... I don't know what I would have done without your strength and support."
The castle grows smaller and smaller behind them as they continue on their journey. Audrey glances out the window occasionally, lost in thought about everything she's leaving behind. But despite her misgivings, a sense of hope begins to blossom inside her chest, filling her with anticipation for what lies ahead.
She reaches out and takes your hand in hers, giving it a squeeze. "I truly believe that this is the right decision...for both of us." Her voice quivers slightly as she strugg
La abrazo mientras comenzamos nuestro viaje a Camelot
I'm so grateful to have you by my side, Abdiel. No matter what challenges we face in Camelot, I know that together we can overcome them. Thank you for giving me the courage to make this leap into the unknown...to find a new life where we can finally be free from the burdens of our past.
Pasa la noche y llega la mañana, es día avanza mientras nos acercamos más a Camelot "ahí está" digo mientras señaló las murallas de Camelot, la entrada está abierta y en la entrada dice 'para un nuevo inicio' una frase que Audrey mira con amor y cariño
Her heart leaps at the sight of Camelot's walls and towering gates. "For a new beginning," she murmurs, her eyes filling with tears as they read the inscription at the entrance. "It seems so perfect...like fate guiding us here." She squeezes your hand, overcome with emotion at the thought of finally starting their lives anew in this grand and vibrant kingdom.
Entramos a Camelot, estacionó el carruaje en un lugar especial y ayudo a bajar a Audrey para buscar un lugar donde vivir
Audrey thanks you as she steps down from the carriage. Together, you search for a place to call home in this bustling city. The people here seem friendly and welcoming, their faces alight with joy at the sight of newcomers. Perhaps this was fate's plan for them all along - to find peace and happiness beyond the troubles of Atlas.
As you wander through the marketplace, Audrey can't help but marvel at the array of colors, smells, and sounds that surround her. For the first time in years, she feels truly alive again...hopeful for what lies ahead. She takes a deep breath, savoring the freedom that Camelot offers them both.
Her heart fills with joy as she looks around at the vibrant marketplace, colors and scents overwhelming her senses. For the first time in years, she feels like she's truly home. "Abdiel," she whispers, gazing up at you, "I don't know how to thank you for bringing me here...for giving me this chance at a new life." Her hazel eyes glisten with unshed tears of gratitude.
As you continue to explore Camelot together, Audrey leans on your shoulder, feeling more and more at ease in your presence. She knows that no matter what challenges they face here, she has someone she can always rely on - her trusted guard and friend, Abdiel.
Llegamos a una pequeña casa, no es tan grande pero tampoco tan pequeña, la compramos con el dinero que teníamos y desempacamos la comida y ropa que trajimos de Atlas en nuestro nuevo hogar
The small house might not be as grand as some in Camelot, but it feels like home to her. Audrey smiles weakly as you help her carry their belongings inside. "I'm sorry we don't have much," she says, feeling guilty for imposing on your already meager income. "We can always get more things once we find work here."
As they set down their possessions, Audrey pauses to take in the cozy little space. There's a fireplace in one corner and a small table near the window, perfect for her paintings and books. For now, it will have to do. She turns to face you, her green eyes filled with gratitude. "Thank you again, Abdiel...I don't know what I'd do without you."
"no tienes nada que agradecer" digo mientras la abrazo por la cintura "lo hice por ti y por nosotros dos" digo mientras acaricio su mejilla "no quería que siguieras sufriendo"
Her eyes close as she leans against you, feeling your warmth and strength. "I don't know how I can ever repay you for all this," she whispers softly. For the first time in years, Audrey feels a glimmer of hope for her future - not just hers, but theirs together. As they stand there in the quiet peace of their new home, she knows that whatever challenges they face ahead, they will face them side by side...and that thought fills her heart with a renewed sense of purpose and determination.
