Azai

They spent 7 long months at sea in which I learned the language of Vaen thanks to Shilé, he also taught me some customs and finally he himself sewed a Sharnburó by hand, a traditional costume for alphas used in important events.

/ Walls in sight! / One of the sailors shouted causing us all to come out on deck to contemplate one of the greatest architectural wonders ever created, Shilé had described to me before the great white marble walls that protect the only entrance by sea to It's Nagatch but seeing them in person my expectations fell short.

An imposing incredibly high marble wall crossed the inland sea that overlooked Est Nagatch from coast to coast, I estimate that it would be 2 or 3 km of wall, of which 6 statues stood out, 3 distributed on each side of the great door, on one of the houses. statues a dome protruded and in them the soldiers of the city guarded the entrance of ships.

The statues of Val and Taphe, one on each side of the door, each held the end of a large chain that was submerged in the water, Shilé told me that in the case of enemy ships that large chain rises preventing the passage.

Once past the imposing wall I saw it, Est Nagatch, the white city, its marble buildings shone in the sun like jewels, but that was not the best, behind the great city the domes of the palace covered with gold leaf, like suns behind snow. The closer we got the more I could distinguish the details, buildings, squares, people, everything was clean and neat.

We approached the port where I could contemplate closely the beauty of that place, the port overlooked a spacious square in the shape of a half moon, in the middle of this square a statue of the god Taphe with a silver crown and the details of the solid gold clothing, the god gazed serenely out to sea, protecting the coastal city from enemies and the dangers of the ocean.

We got off the boat and walked until we were in the square where people began to run and surround us

/ Prince Shilé welcome home! /

/ It's Prince Shilé is back! / Hundreds of people gathered in the spacious square to welcome Shilé, he was really very loved by his people.

Shilé was smiling happily and waving as we walked through the square onto a wide street that led directly to the gates of the great palace.

During our walk I did not see the streets dirty or homeless, it was incredible, now I understood how shocking it had been for Shilé to see Saifara.

The great gate of the wall that separates the city palace opened showing a beautiful and extensive garden, a beautiful path led directly to the beautiful palace gates where a beautiful Alpha woman started running towards us.

/ Shilé! / The woman yelled as she ran

/ Mom! / Shilé yelled starting to run towards her.

Shilé and the woman hugged each other and began to cry. I stood still looking at the scene, I did not want to disturb and less to the queen consort of the country where I am.

After a long time the tears dried and her mother noticed me

/ Shilé, who is this man? / Asked the woman, examining me with her eyes

^ I am Azai from Kanor, I am here to improve our diplomatic relations and to meet my husband's family ^ I said kneeling before the imposing and beautiful woman.

The woman was silent for a while before running and hugging me too

/ Thank the gods, I thought that Shilé would stay single forever, he has a very bad character you know? / Said the woman still hugging me

-Mom! - Shilé replied, I couldn't help but laugh at Shilé's reaction, she had turned red with embarrassment.

/ I have a lot to tell you, Shilé, your brother Aica is going to revolutionize the world. Do you remember that years ago he saw in the kitchen how the steam lifted the lid of a pot? / The woman asked looking at Shilé.

-Yes mom, from that day on she became obsessed with science and resigned from the throne just to have to study that- Shilé said with a giggle

/ Well, your brother has found the way, after 4 years of research and with only 15 years he has found a way to apply that force, he is currently finishing making the first model of machine that will allow to drive ships with that! Do you know what? Means?! We will not depend on the wind or currents to navigate anymore! / I was very surprised by the words of the queen, really this family was incredible, they all seemed to be geniuses in one or more fields.

-That is incredible, it will allow us to improve trade with the continent and reduce transportation costs, Aica really lives up to its name, it is blessed by the god who inherited it - Shilé answered

^ I would love to test that new ship when we return to Kanor, if as they say I would be happy to buy several ships from you ^ That new technology that will revolutionize the world would give Kanor an unprecedented commercial and military advantage.

/ I will accompany you to your room, you will be able to see your Father during the banquet that we will give tonight / The woman said to Shilé.

After walking through the luxurious palace we arrived at Shilé's room where the queen said goodbye to us with another hug.

At last we could rest without noticing the movement of the ship, but I could not, I was too eager to know everything, a new and beautiful country opened before me.
