CHAPTER 29: Protected by the Love of Fire

In the northern territories of the continent of Waderav was the castle that previously belonged to Count Perceval and Countess Genevieve. Inside the castle were the young singer, Nerine, and Prince Kirdothet of the yellow suns.

Prince Kirdothet was powerful with fire, and kept the young woman warm as she stood in his presence in the castle throne room. He had grown stronger by drawing the fires from the yellow suns of the sky above. Their energy went into him. In turn, their own lights dimmed and they could no longer be easily seen by the unaided eye, and gave almost no warmth. The world, as a result, was cooler now.

Yet, Kirdothet had authority over the yellow suns, and was well within his rights to do this. He had come under assault from the Spirit Sword wielded by the mortal, and by the songs and the prayer that were directed against him. As a result, he needed to take power from those yellow suns which were subject to his authority so as to strengthen himself. He presently had the form of a handsome, princely mortal man, wearing robes of yellow and red. Yet, his body now glowed with a bright yellow haze from the yellow sunfire within him, and he gave off warmth.

“I am forever grateful to you for how you rescued me. This is a horrible world, and you are a shining light within it. Just being in your presence, I feel warm and safe,” Nerine said.

“You know that I am no mortal, but the prince of the yellow suns of the sky. I am greater than all the mortals, and it is right that you should give me thanks for my gifts to you,” Prince Kirdothet said.

“I know you are special. I can see the power around you. There is warmth and light. You shine like a jewel in the sun,” Nerine said, still overjoyed at having been rescued by Kirdothet from the bandits in the countryside. She overlooked the arrogance he displayed before her because of her gratitude.

“I am a sun! The jewel has its shine because of me! Never forget that! You must know where the power comes from – it comes from me!” Prince Kirdothet said.

Nerine found him intimidating, but the fact that he rescued her made her feel safe, whereas she would have been terrified, or just dead, otherwise.

“Yes, you are a sun! You radiate my favorite color, which is yellow. Looking at you is a delight,” Nerine said.

Prince Kirdothet was pleased to hear that. “Gaze upon me, so that you may never stop thinking of my splendor!” he said.

“I could never stop thinking of your splendor,” Nerine said.

“I have power and authority to do many things,” Prince Kirdothet said.

“I don’t have either. I grew up poor and my life was difficult at times, very difficult at others. I survived by travel and singing for payment. Sometimes, I was summoned by powerful barons, counts and dukes and they only paid me if they wanted to, and only as much as they wanted to pay.
