Being The Carefree Empress - 34 Blue Rose

Reenste looked at the small blue string bag that she has. Dark blue roses are embroidered really well on the bag.

“It is done…” Reenste told to herself and lie down on the floor. She hugged it and looked at the window outside. It is sunny and the sky is clear. It is the perfect day for anyone to travel out. It has been a week and all she done is focused on the string bag. As if she was pouring all her feelings as she make stiches on the bag. Every stich is Reenste pouring her feelings as if she wanted to end it once and for all, but alas. Upon looking at the string bag and outside. She sighed and shut her eyes. She couldn’t get rid of her feelings. She still longs for the man that she always see even when she closes her eyes.

“Let’s get this over with, Reenste.” She said to herself and then opened her eyes and looked directly at the ceiling of her room. She slowly gets up and slide open the door going outside then she steadily walked to the library as she have the small string bag on her hand. She reached the library and then she went to the familiar door that leads to the outside place near the lake where she always used to see him.

Reenste looked out the place and sighed. Of course he wouldn’t be here, she thought to herself.

“Rory.” Reenste called out. Not too long, Rory came rushing in to the library. He has been in standby outside Reenste’s door and followed her on the library when she went out.

“Yes, my lady?” Rory asked and bowed down. When he looked up, she saw Reenste’s lonely silhoutte that is looking outside. Her long black hair flutters as the wind blows inside the library through the open door. Her curly long eye lashes flutters as she opened her eyes and looked at him. He can see that there was sadness in her eyes, yet she is determined. Rory could not understand her lady’s action this whole week. He just silently waited as she knew that something happened to her lady and he just needed to be ready anytime for her assistance.

“Bring this to Lord Erden. Bid him goodbye for me.” Reenste said and handed him a small string bag that has embroidered blue roses in it. Reenste smiled at him and he was handed the bag. Reenste just looked back again outside and said nothing more. He understood her lady’s order. He just nodded and kept the string bag on him

“Of course, My Lady. Right away.” He said and bow before leaving the library. Rory went to front place of the courtyard and the twins and triplets gathered.

“I will be going out to seek Lord Erden’s courtyard. The lady already left her room and is now at the library. Eva and Elvio, standby outside the library and be ready to serve the Lady. Ava, prepare our Lady’s lunch. Espen, help out with Ava at the kitchen. Agni, patrol outside the courtyard. I will be back after two hours. Are we all clear?” Rory asked everyone and they all nod in unison. They have been with each other for almost half a month now. Rory, still looking a little timid gain some confidence in himself being able to be with Reenste who appreciates him and the help and effort he is doing. The five kids have been also nourished thoroughly and gain a bit of weight comparing to how they were when Reenste first seen them.

Rory took off the courtyard and everyone did what they were assigned to do. They spirits are more lifted up right now as their lady finally get out of her place that is not involving them.

While Reenste may have been locking herself in her room, she didn’t forgot to take care of everyone who in her courtyard. She would take breaks in her sewing just to take care of everyone. Nevertheless, there is a brown envelope that has remained untouched by Reenste as she still looks at the sky.

After forty- five minutes of walking towards the Zenith Palace. At the Palace ground, Rory saw carriages and soldiers getting ready to go. It was not a size of an army going to war, more like to an expedition, the soldiers size is a company not more than 200 people. Everyone is getting ready to set off with their equipments and loading the carriages with the supplies. Rory walked passed the soldiers and went to where Lord Erden’s courtyard is located.

When Rory is about to approach the courtyard, he saw that the door is being opened by one of the servant. Then a tall man in his armor with a dark brown hair came out and Rory stared amazed on how he looks so grand and strong. The staring made the brown haired man noticed Rory’s presence. The Dark brown haired man looked at Rory and frowned. The other soldiers looked then quickly got in front of the man.

“Who are you?” One of the soldiers asked while he points his sword. The brown haired man noticed Rory’s dark green robes signifying he is a servant under one of official’s here or a noble in the palace. So he tapped the soldiers shoulder signaling to withdraw the sword. The soldier was hesitant but he did and step back.

“May I know what is your business with this courtyard?” The man asked Rory. Rory looked at the man. He’s Dark brown hair was tied back up, he have a light brown eyes, yet it looks so sharp and full of authority. Rory was scared, but he gulped then he slowly took out the small blue bag he has that has blue roses embroidered on it.

“I am looking for Lord Erden… To give this. My Lady ordered me to give this to his friend which is Lord Erden.” Rory was careful and specifically told Lord Erden is a friend. Because her lady is one of the candidates and any relation with a guy who might be misunderstood as her lover wilk cause for ladies disqualification and also banishment.

“A friend of Lord Erden you say…” The Dark Brown Haired guy looked at the small bag and looked at the blue rose that was embroidered. He smiled and took the bag.

“Don’t worry. I will bring this personally to our Lord as currently he is unable to receive this personally. Could I have your lady’s name so that I can properly address this to our Lord?” The man smiled and somewhat this took the nervousness out of Rory and he took a deep breathe.

“My Lady’s name is Reenste Ermyntrude. From Shen Courtyard. ” Rory proudly declared. When the dark brown hair man heard that there was a glisten in his eyes and he smiled again as he keeps the bag away.

“Don’t worry. I will have this send to our Lord and informed him that all is good with your lady. Would there be anything else?” The man asked. Rory shrugged then they just both exchange greetings one more time before setting out their different ways.

“My Lord, that is?” the soldier asked as he pointed out the Blue Small Bag. The Dark Brown Haired Man smirked.

“Do you know what the blue rose represents?” The man asked. The soldier frowned and though hard.

“Does it mean royal?” the soldier answered. The man looked afar the sky and lifted up the small bag and looked at it.

“Perhaps, but there is another representation that I know. Blue rose has its beauty. It is so mysterious, because unlike the red rose we can easily get. The blue rose is rare. That’s why you can also say that it is unattainable.” The man explained as he still looks at the bag.

The soldier besides him just nodded agreeing that it made sense for it to be called unattainable.

” It can also mean love at first sight. Because when you encountered such unique and rare flower, you cannot help not to be intrigued and captivated. Thus it also signifying love at first sight.” The man took off his attention to the bag then looked at his soldier. The soldier was in awe, but then later on frowned.

“But my lord, isn’t unattainable and love at first sight a negative and positive meaning. Wouldn’t that be confusing?” The soldier asked. The Dark Brown Haired Man started walking then he smiled.

“There is still another representation for this flower. The unattainable and Love at first sight. Combining those two together will result to the last representation, which is impossible love. No matter how captivated you are if it is unattainable, it will just result to an impossible love. Truly tragic.” The man said and set the bag inside his pockets.

“I never knew that. All I know is that it is either Royal or a way to say to girls they are beautiful.” The soldier nodded to himself as he learned new things today.

“But then my lord, what to do about that small bag? ” The soldier asked.

“We’ll just give it later to the rightful owner. I’m pretty sure, Yue will be tasked to retrieve it to give this to “Lord Erden”. The man laughed. The soldier frowned as he was not able to hear what his Lord uttered.
