Eternity, a word that brought much promise and brought much dismay as well. It was inevitable in the way of life similar to birth and death. However, this one word specifically encompasses the reclusive and mysterious queen of Kethadria whom was looking towards the busy metropolis at the balcony. Everyone around her had aged and showed growth both physically and mentally. Yet, time had not touched her in any form even if she wanted it silently. It was a trait of humanity that she could not hope to obtain. Although, it was also something she finds comfort in. Because, she would be able to spend a wonderful lifetime with the companion she had chosen. It was worth it despite the names and heinous rumors being assigned to her by the people. There was nothing that could shake her will as long as she has "Him" by her side. Nothing at all, this is what she believes in fervently.

"Your Highness, it is not healthy for you to stay too long outside. The King would be in much rage if anything happens to you!"

Purple eyes averted from the scenery of the bustling town below to gaze at the person who had interrupted her moment of solitude. It was an elderly female servant that had been able to find her. She should commend her great effort in being able to find her. Most of the time, they would not be able to until she chooses to show herself. However, there are times her silent contemplation would be halted just like now. Taking her time to study the servant that had found her, she could tell that the elderly woman was fearful yet worried. Maybe, the knowledge of King Minos punishing them if anything happens to her inflicted such terror. However, the worried expression was more like towards a daughter or a loved one. It was not befitting for her. After all, everyone in Kethadria had always viewed her as an eccentric being and an object that should be avoided due to her unknown background. Notably, it pique her curiosity about being treated in such manner by a a person not related to her other than profession.

Adding to that, she is much more of child than an authority inside the palace. Despite the title of being Queen, she had never done anything that would warrant such admiration in politics, public service or military except for her exceptional beauty and mysterious aging process that seemed to have stopped. If she would think about it, she only had cause troubles for the servants and guards that worked inside the palace. Pasiphaë does have the penchant of strolling on her own clearly disregarding her status on most occasions. In once scenario, she had almost been kidnapped by insurgents. It could be one of the main reasons that her husband had deemed her to be confined within the palace. Although, she clearly disagree on that. She was more fitted to be free like a wind unchained by the restrictions of her status. However, the King would think otherwise and would lead for them to argue about it. Thus, she would occasionally slip from her guards and luckily they were lax due to the council meeting her husband had issued. The only thing that she certainly knew that was going to be discussed would be war. There was nothing more important than to secure power, glory and fame in a brutal manner. Personally, she dislikes such thoughts.

"My Lady Pasiphaë, please come with me inside. You would be more comfortable there than here."

The said servant bowed to her with much respect as she politely looked at her with such plea to return inside the palace. It seemed that everyone had the constant idea that she had a weak constitution due to her assumed "disability" which was being a mute. This was why everyone looked at her pitifully and useless. In her opinion, it was something that could not be avoided for she does not have enough courage to overcome her own identity as of now. However, she would not let those kind of gazes and words consume her will. Closing her eyes monetarily, she gave the female servant a courteous nod and began to return inside. In that moment, a flash of thundering sound and heat filled the once calm winds. Swiftly returning to the balcony, she could see the holy temple being desecrated by flames. This was truly ominous in many ways. Uneasiness filled her entire being, the Gifted were there and in a specific way. She cared about those children eventhough Minos reprimands her for it. For her, there was nothing that can be done about it.

"My Lady, we should come inside now. It is not safe here anymore!"

A hand sternly grabbed her wrist as she gazed at the elderly servant. She knew that the female only wanted to ensure her safety however, she had something to be sure of. Prying the hand upon her skin with gentleness yet with great strength, her eyes of purple had an apologetic tone upon it as she darted towards the chambers of her husband. She knew that her sudden intrusion would cause a lot of unwanted attention. However, she had the feeling that Minos might harm a Gifted knowing the possibility that this incident was caused by one. Pasiphaë knew how much those children had suffered already. There was no need for more pain. In her haste, she did not notice that she had passed Zerek while the trailing calls of servants that were now alerted of her plausible actions followed her with much desperation. Yet, their pleas fell on deaf ear as she opened the doors to where the meeting was being held with much force as she stood in the entrance with a very stern look upon her beautiful face. Her very image seemed to radiate a raging tenacity that glorified her elegant and gentle looks which had been raised to breathtaking. However, the next events that unfold had yet to be seen as her amaranthine eyes gazed at Minos with a resolve that cannot be solved. It seemed the rumors of her being meek and docile were all mere illusions.

The mere touch of his lips upon the skin of her hand made shivers of delight be felt all over her body. Despite such, she did not forget why she had dared to disturb a council meeting showing her audacity. It was expected most would criticize the King about her manners. Her eyes of purple orbs gazed momentarily at the main perpetrator who was known as the admiral. Great disgust was the only emotion she has towards the man. His looks of lust when he would conclude no one was baring witness to his inner desires had been very noticeable to its object whom was the Queen. However as of now, he was using her as a tool to degrade the her husband. She would not have any of that as she gave the admiral a very threatening glare which if interpreted in words would mean death.

The situation did not further grow as the subject was quickly changed about the admiral's wife. She was never the kind to believe in the words of others until she would meet the person. It was her certain code of morality thus, she did not like hearing of other people being badmouth even if it was for her own betterment. Holding Minos' hands with a sudden grip, she wanted him to stop such horrible things being said. After all, she was also a female and would understand how humiliating it could be to hear such rude commentaries. As expected her husband knew what she wanted as he silence everyone, the beautiful Queen was about to be relieved about it not until Minos made a crude remark of being to "do" the admiral's wife. In retaliation, she gave him a very cold death glare. If it was possible to kill with a mere look, the King should be dead by now.

Noticing her violent reaction to his words, he immediately snickered about it as she gave out a childish pout. Her outward show of emotions made her more enticing to those who had gazed upon her. However, her most priceless expression would be when Minos reminded the men soaked in the warm waters of the bathe that they had a lady in their midst. It was at that moment she had finally return to the reality of things. She was inside a room filled with naked men. The said Queen wanted to melt herself in embarrassment. Her cheeks were madly in the hue of red as she covered her face with her hands. This was the result of her reckless deeds that had come out of her being too emotional at times. She only felt Minos' arm around her waist as she was lead to the hall as she presumed. Upon arrival, she removed her hands as her eyes were now being looked at by her husband.

His words were spoken by a true King and she understood it. However, the kind Queen only wanted for the possible Gifted to be not sentenced to death or any more heart-wrenching punishments. There must be a reason for such a fire to occur. The temple had been under the care of the Oracle Simin and she knew her personally to be a very gentle soul. Such harsh reactions from the Gifted should be very minimal under the care of the Oracle. Putting her hands in prayer and placing it close to her chest, her amaranthine eyes showed her hope for a consideration or a thorough investigation the very least before delivering a capital verdict. She did have a certain belief that the initiator of the fire was too young to be sent to the depths of endless darkness. In addition, she was greatly opposed about it. If she would need to leave the palace to prevent it, she would without hesitation. Although, her actions would break the King's heart.

Pasiphaë did not anticipate the next events as she found herself being kissed with such fervent passion along with her form almost touching the floor. In the arms of the man she loves, there was no question about her being completely helpless. It made her heart beat so fast that she could faint with the overflowing happiness filling every fiber of her being. Closing her eyes as she drowned herself in such a feeling, Minos had finally relinquished his ownership upon her lips. The said Queen opened her eyes as she stared at him with such a hazy gaze as if she had consumed liquor. Furthermore, his words made her so fortunate. If he spoke it like that, she could not help but relent her ferocity about being confined. Yet, Pasiphaë had never been the kind to simply abide. She knew that her husband knew about this. For now, they should enjoy the moment of peace as he promised for the night. In answer, she placed her hands upon his cheeks and gave such a enchanted smile. After doing so, she kissed him with such gentle fierceness as if saying, he would be the only one she would love for eternity.
