~~~(POV: Cera Adamo)~~~

~~~(Location: In Tent, The Continent of Alforza)~~~

~~~(Time: 8:10 AM)~~~

We've been traveling east for the last three days, and we're still in the jungles. But they're not The Jungles of Nae'mor. We've come across some dungeons and taken them on. I've gained a level, and Sally has gained a few.

It's been pretty nice just doing things at our leisure. She's currently asleep, but I'm starting to wake up. The jungle we're in has a name that I don't want to bother trying to say.

It's not named by the Dark Elves, that's for sure. If it were, it'd be easier to read and say. But the Player Map gives so much already. I really shouldn't complain as much as I do.

I lean up from my spot next to Sally, and I roll my neck. We had some fun in the sheets last night, and it's back to regular life between us. We had a rough patch for a while, but we've gotten through it. Not everything goes perfectly in a relationship.

As I leave the tent, the fresh air of the jungle fills my lungs. A nice breeze rushes across my bare body as the humidity of the jungle goes away for a slight moment.

That's one thing we're both tired of in the jungle. The heat. It's super humid, and it never ceases. However, the nights we have fun make for a sweaty mess, which is pretty hot in the moment, but quite odorous afterward.

It's one of the reasons I'm standing out here without any clothes on. It's too damn hot. It's better to be in the nude when you're in this kind of humid hell.

I make my way over to the stream of water we've set up our tent next to. It's deep enough to dive into, and the flow of water isn't overpowering. It's the best place to swim. I dive into the water and make it to the bottom of the stream.

Instead of resurfacing, I stay below and relax under the water. The flow of the stream isn't as powerful the deeper you go. It's almost unmoving down here.

I'm enjoying the cool and refreshing temperature down here. I can hold my breath for an incredibly long amount of time. My eyes are open, and while it's a little blurry, it's still visible down here. The water of the jungle is unbelievably clear.

Before the last of humanity was brought to The Ancients World, I used to read about places that had existed before my time. Places of unparalleled beauty. Places like this.

I've had my fill of time down here, and I quickly resurface. Making a splash as I do. I land on the bank, and I turn to see Sally getting out of the tent. She stretches out her own nude body. It's a sight I never get tired of seeing.

"I would've loved a morning dip with you. Next time, wake me up too. That tent smells bad from last night."

Thankfully, when items, armor, and anything else is in a Player's Inventory long enough, it gets cleaned. That tent would have to be thrown out from all the things we've done it in.

"You can always jump right on in. I wouldn't mind seeing you splash around in there. I'll tell you what, it helps the humidity."

That's enough to convince her to start a run and jump over me. Giving me a passing view of everything up close. As I said, I never get tired of seeing her naked. Her body dives into the water and resurfaces a second later.

She looks at me the way any guy hopes to be looked at. It's enough to encourage me to jump back into the water. She laughs as I resurface and splash her. She reciprocates, and we find ourselves in a water fight not too long after getting in the water.

This water fight soon turns into a hold-each-other and make-out session. It's one we've both come to gain quite a bit of experience in.

Our lips pull apart, and we stare into each other's eyes.

"You know... We haven't had any particular place in mind since we've left Armezix. Are we just heading in random directions until we find something interesting? Dungeons are fun, but we haven't gotten any valuable information from them like you wanted."

She's not wrong. The Dungeons we have cleared haven't given out anything regarding lore, maps, and historical content about this part of Gaia. Both of us being foreigners, I was hoping we could get something. But so far, we've got nothing.

"It hasn't been for complete waste. You've leveled up a few times, and I've gained a level too. My question to you is do you have any better ideas than heading in a random direction?"

Her eyes mockingly go to the corner of her eye. To show that she's thinking.

"No. But I never said I had an issue with what we're doing. I was only curious as to how long we're going to keep it up."

It won't be that long. I just want to enjoy some time with my girlfriend, which doesn't require us to do anything other than having fun.

It was a pain in the ass dealing with Armezix and everything going on there. I know that our stopping by for a visit has brought large consequences to that Kingdom. What they really are, I have no clue.

"That's good. For the first time, I'm fresh out of ideas. I'll keep brainstorming things we can do. In the meantime, let's just enjoy this."

I bring my lips forward and lock them with her. We sink back into what we were doing before this conversation. In an effort to spice things up, I slowly bring us underwater. Sally can hold her breath and go without breathing for a long time too.

It doesn't take us long to lose each other to passion underwater. It's a first for both of us, and it's exciting, to say the least. I'm glad my parents don't know I do these kinds of things. Well, they know. But not specifically what I do.

I'm young, and I'm exploring things I never had before. Sally is a fruit that I've yet to taste everything of. To experience everything of.

~~~(Location: The Jungles of Nae'mor, The City of Armezix, The Continent of Alforza)~~~

~~~(Time: 9:45 AM)~~~

I'm sitting in my office, and I'm watching the capital outside my window. I've found myself doing this a lot in the last few days. Teziel is gone from the capital and out of power. That much is certain. But I know him, and he's not going to take this.

He believes the throne is his. Whether I say anything or not. There are nobles that are inclined to agree with him. They see Teziel as easily manipulated and weak. If only they knew that if they gave the slightest inkling of betrayal, he'd kill them all himself.

"Mom, I wanted to talk to you about something."

My oldest Daughter, Aelora, comes into my office and takes a seat across the table behind me. She's here to find out why I've done the things I've done these last couple of days.

I suppose she has the right as my Daughter to ask, but I hold no obligation to answer.

"Speak, my Daughter."

Aelora is someone that had some potential in her at one time. But Teziel made sure that no one saw anyone as worthy other than him.

"Why make Rhael the heir over every one of your other children? Over me? He's the last in the line of succession, and now you're just going to send him to the front. How is that fair to the rest of us?"

She's about to learn an important lesson. One that Rhael already knows.

"Because Rhael is the only one that's proven he's fit to rule. None of you have shown me that you have what it takes. Life is unfair, Daughter. You should get used to it."

I don't like speaking this way with my children, but it's required as of now.
