The Dragon Hunt

Prologue

Queen liza, pov,

I was looking at the 'King of Azaron' sitting on his Throne with his dukes governor. I was getting worried why he called me at this time saying , 'Its an important issue need to be discussed, Urgently!' I am now tensed what is Urgest issue that's need to discussed right now, its almost 11:00 P.M. I take a Inspection of my surrounding and then my eyes turned to my left side to trainers, teachers standing with Charles my elder son looking in my eyes. Now I am worried what ever is the issue its related to charles, what he has done? He is obedient and we never got a single complaint from his teachers and trainers. My Father cleared his throat and getting my attention as he walked to me I asked him, 'Whats the matter father, is this related to Charles?' point to my son's direction. He said nothing and gave me a blank nod.

'Liza, our son has proved he is best and its all I want you to know.' I looked to My husband 'The King' as he said and continued, 'As his teachers and trainers are well satisfied with his performance. Now its time for him to move ahead, he has powers which are needed to be explored and controlled. Our son requested me this morning that he want to join league warrior training.' There was a pause which caught my breath I saw him without blinking an eye what ever he is going to say isn't a good thing. Before he can add something, I speak up 'And i m sure you didn't accept his request as he is just so young for 'league warrior training' which is something related to death.'

'I have accepted his request and approved his application for this training.' this was all he said in his steady tone. 'How can you, How can you do this without my permission.' tears making my vision blur and i continued, 'Richard how can you do such this to my son he is just 14, i don't agree with your decision and Charles is going no where.'
Charles took step to me and said ' Mother, Its my dream that i wish to come true, its time when i can think about my life, my future. Please mother don't make situation difficult for me. I want to go.' I watched in his pleading dark green eyes i which i can see no fear for such deathly training, is he really willing for going. Is he asking me to allow him in that death valley for training, no way. i took a breath and held both hands of my son, 'No Charles, Listen to your mother you aren't going anywhere this is your kingdom you are to be next in line of throne, this kingdom. This is your place where you should stay.' My father was next to speak, 'Liza, this is for Charles, do you think we don't love him? what ever we are doing is for his better future. You should believe in his abilities.' my Father said and putting his hand on my shoulders and continued 'Every thing is decided my daughter and Charles leaving tomorrow.' 

'NO HE WON'T LEAVE ME...'  I yelled at my father shoving his hands from my shoulder, this time Charles held my hands and said 'Mother please, Believe me nothing will happen to me, I promise, I will come back for you and for my kingdom but for now I want to go.' I cant believe my own son want to leave me. Do he even no there is no return from that death valley, hundreds of warrior got their but only a few return back.

I shook my head and looked in my son eyes, 'No Charles, try to understa...' before I completed Richard interpreted.
'Liza, Charles is leaving and that's all. You have to believe us, its for better future of our son. I would never allowed him for such step but he is the one willing to go. I can't neglect his request and he is able and willing to do something for his dreams.' I cant believe what he is saying. Here everyone is thinking I am being selfish nit letting my son to a dangerous place. Yes i'm being selfish beause its matter of my son life.

I begged, cried but No one listened me and next day Charles left without saying goodbye to me. He knew I would have tried to stop him. He left me and I don't know will I be seeing him, will he return.

Years passed I saw my son growing from little 12 year boy to a strong and handsome prince, Jayson who is 2 year younger than Charles is all happiness left in my life. Charles becomes most sensitive topic for me. I never talked about him with my father neither my husband who are reason he isn't with me. Jayson is all with whom i talked about charles and he understood. Jayson he only one left whom i adore and love. He is given all trainings and classes which are required for ruling and kingdom. Poeple of 'Azaron' adore their prince, they believe he is next heir in line of throne as their is no news of Charles and its whereabouts. No one even knows if is he alive or not.
