Zeeta and the Wizarding World
Mom and Dad

Fifteen years ago, when Alicia had a chance to have a one-on-one conversation with Myra, she was given various suggestions she could use to "return" the prophecy of Fairy Queen Feline. They were talking inside the coal storage room, and other forging tools, whose temperature felt extremely hot. However, they had no other space to speak privately for sudden and important matters.

"I heard from Axel, you're training to make a magical life out of your own magic?" ask Myra. He leaned against the wall and crossed his arms.

"Yes, that's right. What does my training have to do with the Fairy Queen's prophecy about my son?" ask Alicia.

"Of course there is. Switch that exercise to something else, Princess."

"Like?"

"Make space dimensional."

"Ru-space dimensions?!"

Myra grinned. "Yes, that's right."

"U-for what?! La-again, am I—"

"Of course you can!" myra hatch. "Listen, Princess. Of course you know from the Queen that we were magical creatures from thousands of years ago, right?"

Alicia nodded quickly.

"You think in this world there's only us?"

Alicia shook her head quickly.

"Giant, Dragon, Fairy, they are examples. But, of course there are other unnamed creatures that have lived since Yggdrasil still existed.

"Daughter, I'll set a very simple example. If you're going to name the carnivorous animals, would you think you'd mention everything in the world?"

Alicia suddenly gasped, her eyes twinkling. Looking at her expression alone, Myra knew the answer.

"But that doesn't mean all of them survived the war." Myra turned her eyes. "Damn it, I didn't think I'd be talking about this again after all this time..," he murmured.

"Myra...?"

"A-ah, anyway, I want you to train here, and create a dimensional space so that the magic creatures that exist in the world—no, around Aurora can be protected!"

Alicia seemed to agree, but she had doubts. "So... in the end for what...? The magic creatures have their own lives, if they know they are told to live in a man-made dimension?

"Then, I still don't understand, what does this have to do with the prophecy?"

"On magical creatures let me handle it. Princess, remember carefully what the prophecy said."

Alicia tried to express what she remembered.

"O Aurora, hear my prophecy! This prophecy came from me as a warning, a warning to your descendants that you should be on your guard, and prepare for the coming of the Dark Lord who is of royal descent!

"He is the twenty-first descendant of the kingdom, who will come to destroy this world. Anyone who was blood bound to him, anyone who wanted to help him would die, and leave only sorrow and anger throughout the world!

"My forecast is real. If you don't take it seriously, the world will be completely destroyed!"

Alicia called him with full appreciation— that was not expected by Myra he would do.

"Hahah, yes, that's the prediction," Myra replied, "this time, pay attention to what Feline said. 'Whoever is bound by blood and whoever will help him will die', that's where the gap lies for you to act as a mother and queen in the future."

"Ce...slit?! How anyway?"

"Remember. For three hundred years, he did nothing specific to help Aurora escape her prediction. Yes, you royal nobles are indeed bound by agreement, that Elves should not interfere too much in human matters.

"This should make someone among you aware of what Feline really wants. He purposely made the covenant, so that you would always dance on his palm, and make it easier for his plan to proceed."

"Tu. wait. Dancing on his palm...? So...."

"Daughter, don't you realize it?"

Alicia shakes. "About what?"

"Your mother has always avoided communication with Morgan in recent months. He seemed to be aware of the fishy smell of their movements."

"Aaaagghhhh...." Alicia ruffled her hair. "While I will be scolded, I will ask the details later on. So, Myra, go on about why I should practice making that dimension!"

Myra nodded. "If you think carefully and pay attention to the events up to this point, the words of Feline I meant earlier, signify that they will move to betray Aurora and destroy the entire royal family and leave your son alone.

"Know, a child's mentality is very fragile and very easy to play. Am I right?"

"Uhm. You're .. right."

"So, here's where your practice results come in handy. As Princess, you must have communicated with the Queen through the moon earrings, right?"

"Eh? Why would you know?"

"That's another weapon besides your dimensional magic. You'll guide—make your son sure—if you're still alive and keep him straight as a descendant of the royal family, who has so much power and doesn't abuse him."

"Oh, so! Basic role as a parent, right?!"

Myra smiled as she nodded.

"Daughter, what I'm going to say next is the last weapon for you, and this should be kept a secret for you, me, your future husband, and your future son. Youunderstand?"

"U-uhmmm...." In Alicia's mind, she wondered, why is it suddenly so serious?

......................

"Myra...? Myra's in Axel's Workshop?!" ask Hazell. He was never told of this problem.

"Uh." Alicia nodded.

"We—no... The world will be dealing with the fruit of Yggdrasil. We don't know what the dangers and threats are going to be. If we recall, Erigona is a creature created by Yggdrasil.

"For my mother, they're not a threat, but for us in our old academy, they're a threat. Imagine if creatures like them or even more powerful ones flooded the world. Do you think the world can survive?"

Hazell thought for a moment. He closed his eyes and imagined it. The world will be swallowed up by fear, death, hunger, to the point of being destroyed. However, he managed to imagine a way for them to survive.

"No, unless humans are allied with magical beings," Hazell replied, "given that some magical beings existed thousands of years ago, they were more knowledgeable about Yggdrasil and we might be able to gain the potential for victory."

Alicia smile. "I thought it was from my husband. One hundred for you!"

"Hehe." Hazell scratched her non-itchy head. "But ... can humans ally with magical beings?"

"On that .. Trust our children!"

"Eh?! Why?"

"Because it is he who will bind that fellowship and my instincts say it!"

Hazell smiled and raised both hands. "Well, if you say that, my job is to protect you."

"Sufuku. Thank you, Hazell." Alicia peeks at her husband. "But, I need your approval on this matter."

"Hmm? Is there any more?"

"Yes. It's about how we're gonna live in my dimension."

Hazell immediately had a serious face. "Tell me."

"Aurora has a hereditary occurrence. Those who are born as princesses or princes, will not have a large mana as is generally noble.

"But their strength will rise when they are eight years old. I don't know why, but I'm like that too.

"The dimensional space I will create will protect us from the outside world and make it cover the entire palace. This magic can't be damaged by anyone, even if it's Elves. But, as a payment I won't be able to use my powers for anything else. I want you to protect the palace and supply my space with your sun magic so that we can survive, as well as anticipate an attack from within.

"The palace is not only the house and center of the royal government, but it has many secrets that we still have not revealed. Can you?"

Hazell clutched his jelly wife's shoulder. "For eight years you're going to do that much magic?! No kidding!

"Although we managed to survive her prophecy, I'm worried about your health! This magic scale is huge for you to do!"

Alicia clasped Hazell's hand. He has made a determination.

"Therefore, I need your help. Our son will fight for eight years. To be honest, I don't want my son to have all this trouble, but...." Alicia turned her eyes down.

"Agh, shit!" Hazell pulled his wife into her arms. "When I thought we'd be a happy family!"

Alicia smiled and replied to her husband. "of course. Of course we can."

After feeling enough, Alicia reviewed her plan.

"So, I'm going to make the palace covered with my magic and in it is me and you, where your role is to help me survive. I want you inside the palace and on guard or maybe you can uncover one or two of the palace's secrets.

"In the meantime, I'll be outside to keep an eye on and keep our son at a distance while keeping his dimension. The only way that this magic can really be broken, is to put our son's moon earrings on a door that will appear along with my dimensional magic, which no one will notice.

"Despite it, I won't let them near.

"After eight years, in the eighth new moon, after the strength of our son is awakened, he will be the key to our freedom."

Hazell felt quite understanding, but she needed one more clarity. "Why should the new moon and ... the eighth new moon?"

"That's because .. Aurora's offspring will become ordinary humans without magic at the time of the new moon." Alicia stared at the full moon across the window.

Hazell. He never knew about this either.

"I chose the eighth new moon, because I felt that he would pass many obstacles. After all if he can't yet, we just have to wait for him to be ready." Alicia smiled broadly, indicating that she strongly believed in what her son would complete.

......................

Slowly, Alicia and Zeeta return from their time travel. Zeeta was still clingy in her mother's arms while resting her head on her mother's shoulder. He still wants to be spoiled.

"Why ... Mommy can be this strong...? Don't you feel burdened by my presence that brings a lot of—"

"Cheeta!' said Alicia, "don't say anything that makes me sad...."

Zeeta holds her mother and sheds tears. "Uhm.... Sorry...." He realized his words had just gone wrong.

While stroking her head, Alicia answered Zeeta. "No mother will ever feel burdened by the presence of their child, my dear.

"Children are their precious treasures. A mother is willing to do anything for her child, even though death is her pay.

"The affection of a mother is far greater than the affection of anyone in this world. If you say something that makes me sad .. maybe my heart will get hurt."

"Yahhhhhhhhh!" Zeeta finally dropped her tears. "Sorry! I'm sorry, Mother...! I'm just...

"I just feel like it's all hard to do...."

Alicia kissed Zeeta's forehead. "It's okay, son. I'm right here!" tears were also seen on Alicia.

Zeeta clings to her mother and cries as she can while repeatedly saying, "I love Momuu!"

Meanwhile, in the palace....

"Geez... Can I .. not join this happy reunion?" Hazell was crying alone.
