"Leave," Jamari said firmly, her voice resolute. "I have no desire to engage in conversation with you."
Reagan gradually approached, closing the gap between them. "I am the dragon king," he proclaimed. "Adored by some, despised by many, and feared b...

"I will escort you to your quarters, Your Majesty," one of the beautiful maids offered with a gracious smile.
Jamari nodded, though her smile was forced, concealing the multitude of thoughts running through her mind.
"Perhaps you want to leave the bird behind," the maid suggested, her eyes gesturing toward the magnificent crow perched on Jamari's shoulder.
Panicked, Jamari frantically shook her head. "I can't do that," she replied, her voice filled with urgency.
"Her Majesty cannot see without the bird," Kira said, her tone firm. "Ensure that the bird always remains with her, unless she is to be alone with the king, of course," Kira added, her words carrying a deeper understanding.
The maids exchanged knowing glances, bowing in acknowledgment of this newfound knowledge.
Thoughts raced through Jamari's mind as she contemplated the meaning of Kira's words. "What exactly will I be doing alone with the king that would warrant Corvus' absence?" she questioned herself, her heart pounding.
"I shall see you later, Your Majesty," Kira said with a slight bow as she gracefully walked away, leaving Jamari to her thoughts.
"Please come with me, Your Majesty," a maid beckoned, leading Jamari into her designated room. As the doors swung open, her mouth fell open in surprise at the breathtaking sight that unfolded before her.
The room looked really grand and fancy, like it was made for a queen. The walls were covered in beautiful tapestries with fancy designs made of shiny gold and silver threads. The tapestries showed scenes of important and impressive things. Long curtains made of soft, velvety fabric hung from the ceiling, and they framed the big windows that let you see the beautiful palace gardens all around.
In the middle of the room, there was a big and fancy bed with four tall posts. The bed was made of dark wood with beautiful designs carved into it. It had soft and pretty blankets with fancy stitching and lots of fluffy pillows. The room looked very rich and fancy, with shiny furniture covered in gold, fancy hanging lights, and a special table with shiny mirrors on it.
As Jamari walked deeper into the room, she couldn't help but notice a big, fancy cage sitting by the window. Her friend, Corvus, who always stayed with her, flew off her shoulder and landed gently inside the cage. He looked around carefully, making Jamari feel safe and comfortable.
Jamari felt overwhelmed by the beauty of her new room. She was both excited and a little nervous. But what she didn't realize was that important things would happen to her in this special place. Her life would become connected to the future of the kingdom, like threads woven into a beautiful tapestry.
