“Hey!” Panting continue as they ran through the woods.

Juliana was unable to run again as she leans on a tree and looked at the baby she had just given birth to as tears filled her eyes.

She turned to Steller and hands her the baby. “Am not going to be able to see him again until his youth, but please do me one last wish.” Steller looked at Juliana.

“Ensure his safety Steller, and thank you so much for your councils and for being my guardian Miss,” Juliana told her with a choked voice.

Steller who is in a heyday looked at her. “Save your thanks mistress, I must protect him just as I did to you. You can count on me for all manner of help, and please kiss your son goodbye, HM Juliana.” She told her.

Juliana stretched forth her hand as an attempt to wave, even when she is in tears and kissed her baby on his forehead.

Steller moved in hast and exclaiming as she went forth. “I must flee before death cut my throat.” Steller runs through the bush, panting as she went on to make a speech to soliloquizing further as she proceeds.

“I can see age on my bones and skin.” She muttered as she kept running, she looked at the baby she held in her arms. “Do not worry little one, I will ensure your safety just as I did to your mother, besides am no longer useful to nature anymore.”

She runs as her legs can carry her, moving towards the direction of the Winnipegosis, she kept soliloquizing to succumb to her age. “If I die, I die a happy maid of your mothers, for her kind heart.” She said again to the baby.

"Move around with your horses, search for the prince! He must not leave the boundaries." Captain victor the ruler's right-hand man of the early 17th century AD of the Reginas and Saskatoon empire exclaimed.

He told the army he was commanding as they searched for the prince. Captain Victor is self minded, heartless at times and eagle-eyed. They compare him to be exceedingly treacherous.

A noise drew near and HM Steller got more frightened. "Oh! My precious." Steller exclaimed.

She knew she could not outrun the soldiers, she had no option rather, she blessed the child and placed him on top of a wooden slat and sailed him on the lake Winnipegosis not minding where the tributaries would lead the baby.

Tears rolled down her cheek. "Good...bye lit..tle!" She said as if she were counting her words and to keep the child to a safe hand unlike a fairy flying in mid-air to watch and ensure her thought.

As the night drew forth with twilight calls the dark path and the soldiers lit forth their candlestick and kept searching tremendously for the Prince.

"Here leads footprints." Walter, one of the army exclaimed when he saw footprints. Walter wants to be captain but his rude manner towards others kept him on the path of failure in all manner of the job he does.

Captain Victor shouted in command to order the others to proceed further to the root of the event.

Those armies are exceedingly mighty rating to time and would not tolerate losing any quest and battle in general.

"Over here!" The youngest one among them shouted as he saw the baby in the slat, sailing away, further towards Winnipegosis.

"Throw spears, aim the child!" Exclaimed another. They started throwing spears, but it was thrown to no avail as he was too far for it to get to him.

Steller who have no more energy to run, just wipe close to the lake, where the armies have already covered. Victor grabbed her angrily by the collar.

"You must know woman! You are in trouble which to your imaginations, may be defined terribly." Victor speaks on a dismannered tune in favour of his crew.

"Is this a kind of mythological numby-pamby you are trying to create for that boy!" He shouted at Steller who just looked at the lake which the baby had sailed away and disappeared from their sight with tears in her eyes, as she keeps praying for his protection.

Victor left her collar as she fell to the hard ground. "You know he is full of magic powers and should not leave, lest he courses more harm than good to the nation." Another army spoke in a lethargy of no harm.

"Tie her hands and feet but leave the throat to me. I will decide what to do next." Victor orders one of his armies as he looked at Steller who was dragged up her feet to be tied.

"Besides she is an elderly lady, so grant her a horse for the favour of our former master and king," Victor said and turned his horse around and moved on.

They followed his orders, tied her hands and mounted her on a horse as they lead her back to the kingdom as their prisoner. Steller took one last look on the lake, she hopes the baby survive and be well taken care of.
