CHAPTER 6

Solomon and Prince Joe were eating while having a conversation. There are plenty of foods on the table which Harry never tasted before.

"I have never eat nor seen any of these foods on the planet Earth!" he said as he craves. "I have a big appetite for today!"

"These foods are only exclusive only for a prince. You have been stressed because of the heavy workload on your shoulder so you need to eat plenty of foods to regain your strength!" Solomon said.

"Thank you. I really appreciate it. On the world where I came from, I never experienced being treated this way. I was a trash in everyone's eyes so having this kind of experience really makes me emotional!"

Tears fell down on his face and Solomon tapped him on his shoulder.

"You are the king of this nation and we put our faith in you. That is why we prepared foods as a way to welcome you! I almost lose my hope ever since Prince Alexander got severely wounded in his last fight against the King of Fire nation. But now that a substitute Prince has finally arrived, I am confident that we can win against an overwhelming number of enemies!"

"Yeah!" said Harry, followed by an awkward laugh. "Hahaha!"

"What is funny Prince Harry?" Solomon asked.

"No nothing. By the way, how in the world were you guys able to summon someone from another world? I thought only my planet has a living creature!"

"Actually we can only summon a substitute Prince once in a million years through intense ritual to Goddess Geisha. She is the one who used to be the princess of God Zeus!"

"I see. Can you tell me about the past of this nation? Especially with Princess Dianne?"

Solomon took a deep breath before speaking. "Long time ago, Narnians had a good relationship to other nations. As a matter of fact they are like families. We have been peacefully living until King Prometheus went to this place and found out that this nation is rich in natural resources and tons of gold were buried underneath this castle. The gossip spread like a wildfire and every king turned against each other out of envy and greed.

"Now, the battle has erupted and has been going for centuries. As you know, nobody can really benefit from this except they get the territory of their enemies. If you are going to ask me, all this chaos and bloodshed are meaningless. Only if I have a power, I would put this war to an end!"

"You have a point there. What I am worried about is facing the fire nation. I mean, the war stems from them so I need to teach their new king a new lesson!"

"No, there is only one king for a nation. If they die or decide to step down, the one who will replace them is called a Prince!" Solomon explained.

"Now that is some rare rules but we have to respect the first king of this nation so I am fine being called a substitute Prince!"

"Only the title has changed, but the duties of a king are not different from a prince regardless if they are substitute or not. Moreover, a lot of nations have emerged and we considered all of them a threat!"

Prince Harry's forehead knitted in confusion. "Do we have any allies?"

"It's hard to believe but yes, we don't have any ally as we speak so no matter how you try to negotiate with them, it's useless!"

"Thank you for telling me that information. Now, everything is clear to me. I was disappointed on the turns of events. But the fire nation kings already died!"

"Yes, he lived a very long life. Now the fire nation is more infuriated with us and will never hesitate to bring our empire down!"

"That is a strongly possibility. As far as I know, the Princess of Fire nation is the one charge of taking care of their kingdom. In the case of this nation, Princess Dianne admitted that ruling a nation is not something she is gifted for. That is why you are being summoned here!"

"But how about the parents of Princess Dianne or Prince Malik?"

"They died a long time ago in battle. Actually, Princess Dianne is already stressed to handle problems of nation on her own!"

"So how old is she?"

"Believe it or not Princess Dianne is already 200 years old!" Solomon answered without hesitation.

Prince Harry's eyes widened in shock. "Damn! Are you serious about this? She looks like 18 years old!"

Solomon crossed his arms over his chest. "What I am saying is true. In this world, the physical appearance of anyone doesn't easily fade away. Even you, I am sure that you are young when you were still in your planet!"

"Indeed, I am just 18 years old but when I looked at my face earlier, I looked like I am on my 30's. I wonder if I will return back to my old physical appearance if I return to my planet!"

"I have no idea about that. But since I already told you about the past of this nation, is it okay to tell me something about the modern world where you came from?"

"Yes sure. The world where I came from is modern. We no longer use horses and camels as a mean of transportation so I will do my best to create such vehicles for Narnians, whether they are warriors or not! All we need are iron or lead that are found underground in rocks!"

"Thank you for suggesting that. I'd like to go to your planet one day to see those vehicles with my own eyes. But I know it's impossible to happen!"

"But the world I live in is full of judgmental people!" Prince Harry nodded. "Actually I have no friends on earth and my life there was a hell. So as much as possible, I don't want other people to live on earth. Still, that ain't possible to happen!"
