Whoever these cysts were, I could tell they were powerful but I had never heard of them in the kingdom.Glancing back continuously, my heart pounded heavily against my chest, and sweat gathered on my forehead.

Camyre’s POVThe bar had been a constant over the past few days and I had become accustomed to the hustle and bustling. The past few days had seen the place swell with more than the usual rabble—farmers, wandering tradesmen, and drifters all whispered strange rumors over their tankards of mead."They say he is the lost heir," muttered an old man in a corner, his voice low but not low enough for Camyre to miss. "They say he holds power over the very earth itself, and with a flick of his wrist, he could raise it to the sky."Another scoffed, shaking his head in disbelief "Aye, and maybe the moon is but a silver coin, ready to be plucked from the heavens."These rumors had become more rampant over the past few days and I was shocked at the rate at which they had spread, I was neither a lost heir nor could I lift the earth with the flick of my wrist, I could barely even hold these damn trays steady with how much I had been worked for the past few weeks, luckily I had already gotten a litt

A strange unease gnawed at me, for the thought of some ill news reaching this city troubled my heart, though I knew not why. It seemed madness to me, for how could I, a mere man raised by foster kin, have aught to do with the royal line? My days had ever been spent in their humble care, as far back as memory did stretch. Yet, still, a shadow clung to my thoughts, one I could not shake.I kept glancing back now and then to make sure I wasn't being followed until I came to a stop, my breath increasing and I doubled over, the surrounding new crowd stared at me as though I was insane.My newly acquired rob was stained with mud and there was nothing I could do about it, thanks to the servant, my way home was defined but the real issue was getting back there.

Without hesitation, I reached for it with speed and held it close to my chest before stashing it in my pocket.Glancing around the field, they all gazed at me as though I had sprouted a second head, wipers passed between them and some of
