“Oh, Griffa, it’s you! Oh, thank goodness. I was so worried about you.” squealed a little, older woman who had just run into the room. She had a white hair pulled up into a messy bun. She had her arms around Clarabefore Kyle knew what happened. She gave Claraa long hug before letting go and looking at her. “Oh, you are such a mess. We must get you cleaned up. I’m guessing you are hungry as well, all of you. Ansel! My dear boy, you are here as well. Come here and give me a kiss.” Jarethwalked over and bent down and kissed the old woman on the cheek. “It is good to see you, Maybell. Might I introduce Kyle to you?”Maybelle went still, her light gray eyes huge. “You were successful then? Is this him, the king? Oh, how good it is to meet you, your majesty.” She dropped a deep curtsey.“Uh, thank you?” faltered Kyle, not sure what to do.“Now, now Maybell, he likes to be called Kyle and doesn’t want to be made a fuss over,” said Clarataking Maybell’s hand and bringing her back up to a

The majority of the kingdom of Regventus's cities and villages were constructed of rings.The size of the town determined the number of rings.Typically, the rings varied in class and function.Clarton, Kyle's home village, had three rings.The Viceroy and other extremely wealthy families resided in the inner ring.Shops, workhouses, and a few places to live for the poor made up the middle ring.Most people who worked at the edge of the forest lived in the outer ring, where the main stables were and Kyle lived.Apothecaries, farmers, and others who preferred to live outside the town's main hub were among these individuals.The majority of people would not live in the third ring because they were afraid of the open forest at night. However, there was ample space and decent housing there.Kyle didn't know why individuals in Clarton dreaded the woods.He had spent many summer evenings at the forest's edge and many happy days riding horses in the trees.He liked to watch the fireflies blink as the

Okay, but we want to be with you there.When you speak with Kyle, we want to be present in the room.Jane added, "We want to help him understand and be able to say goodbye."Jareth paused.He wasn't sure how much the boy would want to know for him to come.If she had truly grown up with the stories, he was aware that this woman knew some things.It was one thing to hear the stories, but it was quite another to actually hear them confirmed."First, let me meet the boy.We will not leave until he meets with you both, I promise you.If he doesn't listen, what happens?What if he refuses to go?What if he flees?Danin asked in a slightly enraged tone.Jareth demanded, his eyes narrowing, "He will come with me tonight in some way or another.""What's the point of that?"Danin jumped out of his chair to ask.Although you may believe you own the boy, we have always been his closest parents.He won't be hurt by you.Jareth made an effort to regain his composure.That boy would never hurt me.He is essenti

"Why are you explaining this to me?What are you and I involved in this?inquired Kyle."Everyone is involved in this.I'm Jareth, a Raya descendant.I am the greatest defender of the kingdom of this generation.I have studied, trained, and lived this all my life, and I have always known this."What am I supposed to do with this, if all of this is true?Even my real parents are unknown to me.I'm a healthy young man who lives as far away from Aurumist as possible.What contribution can I make to this?Kyle couldn't quite make out the look Jareth gave him when he looked at him.Was it irritation, pity, outrage, or something different?"You are everything, Kyle.I was brought into this world by you.I received my education because of you.You are Kylewell, a member of the Adalwen family.Both of your parents are members of the Adalwen family, and you come from a long line of kings and queens.You were created for this moment.Kyle assumed the man was making fun of him as he stared at him.This individ

My father will be inquisitive."Katniss, I will see you soon.I swear."Before leaving, Katniss opened the door and smil
