It was early in the morning. Everything was so eerily quiet, it was so unusual. No chirping of birds. No small animals scurrying away to get their food. The skies are gloomy, full of dark clouds. And the wind is chilly, it was the start of winter. The ground are full of snow. It is not a great day to make a morning ride. But hence, there was a lone boy who is riding a majestic horse in the middle of a winter cold morning.

Prince Edmund and Kaylar, The Talking Horse, A Male Steed were on their way to the nearby town for some supplies for their trip to the woods. Kaylar was talking about his adventures in far-off lands, while Prince Edmund listened distractedly. Suddenly, there was a loud crack, and Prince Edmund was thrown off of Kaylar's back.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdxHSRj6LcN
He landed hard on the ground, and Kaylar immediately rushed over to check on him. "Are you okay, Prince Edmund?" Kaylar asked worriedly.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7thm8Kehka
Josiah, The Jaguar, one of the Royal guards of Prince Edmund, was patrolling the area nearby when he heard the loud crack. He immediately sprinted towards the source of the sound, and as he approached, he could hear Kaylar's concerned voice.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTrJO3jXJzn
As he burst onto the scene, he saw Kaylar tending to Prince Edmund, who was lying on the ground, dazed and confused. Josiah quickly assessed the situation and realized that Prince Edmund had fallen off Kaylar's back due to a broken saddle strap.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZdaM6RZJG
Without hesitation, Josiah sprang into action. He quickly retrieved a replacement saddle strap from his pack and expertly fitted it onto Kaylar's saddle.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJna0W2PJQP
Edmund groaned, feeling a sharp pain in his ankle.
"Are you hurt, Your Highness?" Josiah asked, his keen eyes scanning Prince Edmund's body for any signs of injury.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡarAn60im16
"I'm alright," Prince Edmund replied, still a bit shaken. "I think I twisted my ankle," he said, trying to sit up.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkPxOpM5Is
Kaylar and Josiah helped Prince Edmund up, and they both inspected the area where they had been walking. They noticed that a large tree branch had fallen onto the road, and that was what had caused the accident.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn2N05mvbYB
"Thankfully, it was just a minor incident," Kaylar said.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHRTrS9XSAZ
"Thanks to you, Josiah and Kaylar, I'm okay."
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1lZg0UMpiq
Josiah nodded, relieved that the Prince was not seriously hurt. "It's my duty to protect you, Your Highness. I'm just glad I was able to help."
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBL46R4RcZB
Josiah gently lifted Edmund onto Kaylar's back and started walking towards the town. Edmund was grateful for Josiah and Kaylar's help, and he couldn't help but feel lucky that his mishap accident had not been worse.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4oXfkne0lU
As Kari, The Female Gryphon, soared high in the sky, keeping a watchful eye over Prince Edmund and his companions, she noticed the commotion down below. She saw Prince Edmund fall from Kaylar's back and watched as Josiah quickly came to his aid.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDSobXCM6wk
Kari had always been protective of the royal siblings, especially Prince Edmund. She remembered how he had saved her and her baby from certain death when they were attacked by a group of hunters. Since then, she had felt a deep sense of gratitude towards him and had vowed to protect him at all costs.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBiHuCCIsqJ
As she descended towards the group, she could see that Josiah had already fixed the saddle strap and Prince Edmund was safe. She landed softly on the ground, her large wings folding neatly behind her.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVk35UneIXm
"Is everything alright, Your Highness?" Kari asked, her voice soft and gentle.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbLX064Om9
Edmund looked up and smiled at her. "Yes, Kari. We're alright. Thank you for your concern."
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ92nVNUVXHS
Kari nodded, relieved to see that he was unharmed. She remembered how he had risked his own life to protect her and her baby and felt a deep sense of affection towards him.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxhBwA78va
"Please be careful, Your Highness. I will continue to keep watch over you," Kari said, her eyes scanning the area for any potential threats.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTASBox1Elk
Edmund nodded, grateful for her protection. From that moment on, Kari continued to watch over the group from the air, always ready to swoop down and protect them if needed.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkm1I3qgvH8
As they continued on their journey to the town, Kari felt a sense of pride and affection towards Prince Edmund. She knew that he was a kind and brave soul, and she would do whatever it takes to protect him, just as he had once protected her and her baby.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0MQWGnVSK
Kiro, The Alpha Wolf, leader of the Royal guards of Prince Edmund, stood silently in the shadows with his team of elite guards. They had been trailing behind Prince Edmund and Kaylar, keeping a watchful eye out for any potential threats.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3hFfPbzGl
As they observed from a distance, they saw Kaylar rush over to Prince Edmund, who had fallen off his back. They watched as Josiah, The Jaguar, came to their aid and helped them fix the saddle strap.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMCdkbuhDg
As Kaylar rushed to Prince Edmund's side, Alpha Kiro watched closely, ready to spring into action if needed. He could see that Josiah had already come to their aid, and he felt relieved that the situation was under control.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Topazn11e
Suddenly, Alpha Kiro spotted the broken saddle strap and saw why Prince Edmund fall off Kaylar's back. He immediately signaled to the other guards to remain in the shadows and observe their surroundings for any potential threats.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvCastp6hI

418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpzHQhuenfX
Once he was sure that there was no immediate threat, he turned to his team of guards and gave a nod. The other guards, who had been keeping watch over the town, quickly made their way towards Alpha Kiro.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡllf2zjpXNg
He relayed the situation to them and ordered one of the guards, Kayra, The Female Cheetah, stepped forward and Alpha Kiro gestured for her to approach.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcoOLhQi8i
"Kayra, I want you to go back to the castle and inform the royal siblings that Prince Edmund will not be returning soon. Let them know that he is alright, but he wanted to stay in the town for a while and explore," Alpha Kiro instructed, his voice firm and reassuring.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1HneAiZ7k
Kayra hesitated for a moment, her eyes fixed on Alpha Kiro's imposing figure. She wanted to stay and protect Prince Edmund, but she knew better than to disobey the Alpha's orders.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhpVLP2RXY
Reluctantly, Kayra nodded and sprinted off towards the castle, while Alpha Kiro and the other guards remained hidden in the shadows, keeping a close eye on their surroundings to ensure that Prince Edmund, Kaylar, and Josiah were safe as they explored the town.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqt5MzjbzYZ
As she sprinted through the forest, Kayra's mind raced with worry. Why did Prince Edmund have to stay behind? And why did Alpha Kiro seem so tense and guarded?
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xWsz1hhIT
She pushed herself harder, her paws pounding against the soft earth beneath her. The wind whipped through her fur, and she could feel her heart pounding in her chest.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHz6rHNhDfT
When she finally arrived at the castle, she was panting heavily, her sides heaving with exertion. She burst through the doors and raced down the long hallways, her claws clicking against the polished stone floors.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrkUYGzsHt6
At last, she reached the royal chambers, where she found Prince William and Princess Samantha waiting anxiously.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrqCIn30pFy
"Kayra, what happened?" asked Princess Samantha, her eyes wide with concern.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfpBZeIJr6
"Prince Edmund is alright, Your Majesty" replied Kayra, trying to catch her breath. "He just want to stay for a while to explore the town and he'll be back soon."
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zyEdZNX7L
Princess Samantha's face relaxed in relief, but Prince William looked skeptical.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkFuIygnCg
"Why?" he asked, his voice tense.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPN91y2AukH
Kayra hesitated, unsure of how much she should reveal. But she knew that Prince William was Prince Edmund's closest confidant, and he deserved to know the truth.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJvf3WC3bn
"I don't know exactly, Your Highness" she said slowly. "But Alpha Kiro seemed very concerned. He ordered me to come back and tell you that Prince Edmund is safe, but he needs to stay for a while."
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEhgsikSd4J
Prince William's face darkened, and he looked as though he was about to say something, but Princess Samantha interrupted him.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4QGhd6jr33
"Thank you, Kayra," she said, placing a comforting hand on the cheetah's shoulder. "We'll stay here and wait for Edmund's return."
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7uDglh6633

Princess Samantha ask Kayra to stay for a while and take some rest before she go back to Prince Edmund and that she needs to bring some supplies for Prince Edmund and the royal guards if he needs to stay out for a while. So, Kayra agreed that she will take a rest until the preparation of the supplies was prepared. Princess Samantha called a servant to prepare a meal and to care for Kayra.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwQ4bWluds
Kayra was grateful for Princess Samantha's kindness and nodded in agreement. She knew that it was important to take care of herself if she wanted to be an effective guard for Prince Edmund.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdX8fi3tFI
"Thank you, Princess Samantha," said Kayra, her voice filled with gratitude. "I'll take some rest and wait for the supplies to be prepared. I appreciate your help."
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNmjgk07jU
Princess Samantha smiled warmly at Kayra and gestured for a nearby servant to come forward.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1vkqzwli5
"Please prepare a meal for Kayra and make sure she's comfortable," she said, her tone gentle and kind. "And let me know as soon as the supplies are ready."
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXTczS4f9V
The servant bowed deeply and led Kayra to a nearby room where she could rest. The room was cozy and inviting, with a soft bed and a warm fire burning in the hearth. Kayra lay down on the bed, feeling her muscles relax for the first time in what felt like ages.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoAszut6MsV
As she waited for the supplies to be prepared, Kayra allowed herself to drift off into a light sleep, feeling safe and secure knowing that the royal siblings were taking care of her and her fellow guards.

Meanwhile, Alpha Kiro and the other guards continued to keep a watchful eye on their surroundings, ready to spring into action at a moment's notice if needed.

With that, the three of them continued on their journey to the nearby town, with Josiah walking alongside Kaylar and Prince Edmund, keeping a watchful eye out for any further danger that might come their way.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNraLzTxoQy
As they walked, Kaylar continued to tell Prince Edmund stories of his travels, trying to distract him from the pain in his ankle.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0o22dMJ3k
Eventually, they arrived at the town, and Kaylar took Prince Edmund to the local healer while Josiah remains outside the door to keep an eye on their surrounding area.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhAx89tzDtI
"Let's get you some help, Prince Edmund." said Kaylar.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4o2ANxusP
The healer examined Prince Edmund's ankle and confirmed that it was indeed just a minor twist. He gave Prince Edmund some herbs to help alleviate with the pain and told him to rest for a few days.
