Albion was with Eria and Wynn, as they were taking a few breaks, as they were looking out for any other Traptrix Assasin, as Wynn gave him water.
Wynn looked at him. "Here"
Albion took the water as he drink's it. "Thanks, but you both should drink some water as well".
Eria looked at him as she spoke. "Don't worry about it, we will stay hydrated Using my Water Magic".
Albion looked at them as he spoke. "So um, can you tell more about the Elemental Nation".
Wynn looked at him as she spoke. "Why, I thought you already knew, sense you know your ment to rule all over us in the Future"
Albion points at him self as he spoke. "I am literally 6, I don't know everything about my nation". Albion then though in his mind. "Also because if I am correct, which I Probably am because the Universe Hates me, the Elemental Kingdoms are just the Elemental HERO Deck in this Universe".
Eria chuckled, brushing a strand of hair behind her ear. "Well, technically, there are six Elemental Kingdoms. Each tied to one of the primal elements: Fire, Water, Earth, Wind, Light, and Darkness. Our Wind Kingdom, where we're headed, is known for its speed magic, weather manipulation, and—well, a lot of floating stuff."
Wynn grinned. "Like sky islands, wind-forged blades, and eagle mounts. Our people value freedom, speed, and insight."
Albion raised an eyebrow. "So… like Stratos? Avian? Honest Neos?"
The two girls blinked. "What?"
Albion coughed awkwardly. "Nothing. Please go on."
Eria narrowed her eyes but continued. "Each Kingdom is guarded by a Spirit Beast and led by one of the Six Elemental Monarchs. Together, they're supposed to answer to the Primal Sovereign… you."
"Me," Albion muttered, slumping against a tree. "Of course it's me. Just why not throw in Exodia as my butler while we're at it…"
Wynn stifled a laugh. "You're taking this royalty thing really well."
Suddenly, a gust of wind kicked up a flurry of leaves—and in the distance, floating peaks and long sky bridges began to come into view.
Eria pointed ahead. "There it is. Skyreach—the capital of the Wind Kingdom."
Albion looked at them as he spoke. "Skyreach? Didn't you say the Capital is called Aero Spire".
Wynn looked at him as she spoke. "Will the Full name is Skyreach Aero Spire".
Albion just blinked as he spoke. "Ok, so which Elemtal Monarch Runs This Kingdom"
Eria looked at him as she spoke. "That would be, lord Avian".
Albion screamed in his head. "I fucking called it".
He then looker at Eria and Wynn as he spoke. "He sounds important".
Wynn nodded with a slightly amused smile. "Lord Avian is one of the oldest Monarchs. He's not just strong—he's fast, wise, and incredibly difficult to pin down. Wind incarnate, basically."
Eria added, "He's also the one who taught me and Wynn how to use our magic more efficiently. He doesn't talk much, but when he does, you listen."
Albion tilted his head. "So he's like the ninja mentor type? All mysterious and cool?"
Wynn raised a brow. "He does wear a long cloak, always perches on rooftops, and only speaks when the wind carries his voice... yeah, pretty much."
Albion sighed. "Great. A literal Elemental HERO mentor from the skies. Universe, you can chill now. I get it."
Eria smirked. "Don't worry, I'm sure he'll love meeting the 'six-year-old destined ruler who fell from the sky and doesn't even know what Skyreach Aero Spire means'."
Albion groaned into his hands. "I am not ready for this meeting…"
The three kept walking, now entering a winding cliffside path that spiraled upward—leading toward the floating spires in the sky, where the wind sang secrets through every breeze.
Back with that of Search Party, as Crunessa was looking at her groups, as she then heard the flapping of wings as she saw Cartesian
Crunessa just looked at them search party that should be in the Desert. "Hey, What the Hell, did I miss an Order From the King".
Davon looked at her as he spoke. "No, then why are they here".
Crunessa then transformed into her Dragon Form, as she stopped Cartesian group, as the two groups looked at Eachother.
"What are you doing in the Wildlands".
Cartesian looked at her as she looked her. "We are going to thr Wind Nation, we suspect the prince is there".
Crunessa was so flabbergasted as she took to her human form. "Fucker Explain".
After explaining the events of how they meet Aussa, how the Channeler girl saw Albion 2 days ago, and how she saw him go at canyon which was connect to trh Wildlands and to the Wind Kingdom, and how they fought a Desert Hydra.
Davon looked at them as he spoke. "If you are correct about your guess, the other Search Party's need to inform immediately about this discovery, but if your wrong, you all left your post".
Cartesian crossed her arms, clearly unbothered by Davon's accusation. "If we're wrong, I'll take full responsibility. But if we're right and the prince is in the Wind Kingdom, then we're the only ones with a real lead."
Crunessa pinched the bridge of her nose and groaned. "You fought a Desert Hydra, picked up a lost Charmer, and crossed into the Wildlands without orders. You all either have the worst luck—or the best timing."
One of the Stardust Dragons from Cartesian's group chimed in, "To be fair, the ground literally cracked open under us, and the Hydra woke up first. So technically, we were forced to cross the border."
Davon looked over at Aussa, who stood slightly behind the group, clutching her staff. "And you're sure it was the prince you saw?"
Aussa nodded. "I don't forget faces easily. The kid was with two girls—both had Elemental magic. One used wind, the other water."
Crunessa's expression grew serious. "That matches the Charmer types. They're from the Wind Kingdom... damn it."
She turned to Cartesian. "Alright. I'm not happy, but I'll back you up—for now. We'll combine forces and move toward Aero Spire. But if this turns out to be a wild goose chase, the King will have our heads."
Cartesian smirked. "He can try. But let's hope we bring back the prince instead."
The combined group of dragons, soldiers, and one very confused Charmer began to move swiftly through the Wildlands, their path set toward the floating capital of Skyreach Aero Spire—where destiny, politics, and chaos awaited.
As the group walked, as Aussa was looking back, as she had noticed that Chame and Tillroo were starting at her, long enough to make a hole in her back, as she took a few steps Infront, only the girls to "Secretly" follow her.
Aussa looked at Asterion as she spoke. "What's the deal with the two Scary Looking Kid Maid's".
Asterion looked at her as he spoke. "Yeah will I don't know much, other then the fact they are the Prince Personal Maid, they don't like me, sense I am one of the reason the prince is lost in the first place".
Aussa blinked slowly, glancing back again to see Chame and Tillroo pretending very poorly to be looking at the scenery while absolutely not stalking her like two miniature specters of doom.
She leaned in closer to Asterion and whispered, "They're not going to stab me in my sleep or something, right?"
Asterion gave a half-hearted chuckle, rubbing the back of his neck. "Honestly? I wouldn't bet against it. They're scary. Loyal as hell to the prince, though. If they think you're a threat... well, good luck."
As if hearing her name, Tillroo smiled—smiled—at Aussa from a distance. It was the kind of smile that could curdle milk. Chame simply tilted her head, eyes still locked on Aussa like she was reading her every move.
Aussa gulped. "Great. Stalked by tiny assassins."
Cartesian, walking ahead, glanced back and said with a grin, "Don't worry, Aussa. If they were gonna stab you, they'd have done it already."
"That's not comforting!" Aussa hissed back.
Asterion patted her on the shoulder. "Welcome to the inner circle of royal nonsense."
Scarlet who was with Chame and Tillroo as she spoke. "Maybe you two shouldn't be so obvious".
Chame looked at her as she spoke. "She knows where the Young Master is, what if she is lying and she Ha-".
Scarlet stopped as she spoke. " First of all, If she did, that is a poor choice, and second If Albion is in The Wind Kingdom that is great, the Elemental Monarch Wind and the other are Fully Loyal to The King Albion The Second, which also means they are loyal to Prince Albion, so yeah, he is safe... Probably".
Tillroo frowned, arms crossed, her dark eyes glinting with suspicion. "Probably isn't good enough. Not when it comes to the Young Master."
Chame nodded. "What if they're using him as leverage? What if they know who he is and plan to hand him over to the Traptrix Nation?"
Scarlet rolled her eyes and flicked Chame lightly on the forehead. "Then we go in and burn the place down, okay? But until we know for sure, stop glaring at Aussa like she's a walking betrayal. You're making everyone uncomfortable."
Chame rubbed her forehead, grumbling. "I'm just saying, trust is earned…"
"...and paranoia gets you locked out of the war council," Scarlet shot back with a smirk. "Relax. The Prince is smart. If he's in the Wind Kingdom, he's probably charming half the capital without even realizing it."
Tillroo muttered under her breath, "He better be."
Aussa, pretending she wasn't hearing every word of that intense conversation, leaned over to Asterion. "Okay, so Scarlet's the sane one?"
Asterion shrugged. "She's the least murdery one. That's as close as we get."
Aussa looked at Asterion as she spoke. "So um, what is Scarlet Deal? She doesn't look like Maid".
Asterion looked at her as he spoke. "Because she instead. She is actually the Heir to The Red Eyes Black Dragon Fraction like I am to try Blue Eye White Dragon Faction".
Aussa looked at him as she spoke. "I see, and the reason you are here is because you two are the Prince Friend".
Asterion made a Nervous chuckle as he spoke. "I barely know the Prince, we met 2 days ago, during the Flight Training with another Young Dragon kid, let's say we did a race which escalated and now I and Scarlet am in this search part as both a Punishment/Learning Experience from the King because we are the reason Albion is missing".
Aussa looked at him as she spoke. "That explains why this group is 99% Adults with enough Political powers to curse a Wyvern".
Asterion gave a sheepish grin. "Yup. Nothing builds character like being the cause of a national crisis."
Aussa blinked. "And they didn't throw you in a dungeon?"
"They did, technically," Asterion replied with a lie as raising a finger. "But then Scarlet threatened to burn it down, so they 'reassigned' us."
Aussa just stared. "Wow. Your Kingdom's definition of discipline is... unique."
"I like to think of it as creative character development," Asterion said with forced optimism.
Up ahead, Scarlet turned her head slightly. "If you two are done talking about our collective screw-up, we've got a forest coming up. If the prince is in the Wind Kingdom, we need to cross the border undetected."
Tillroo cracked her knuckles. "Or detected, but with them too scared to stop us."
Chame smirked. "I vote for that."
Aussa just sighed. "This is going to be a long day."
