"Is she alright? Please tell me she is alright." The strain in the kings voice was a sad thing to hear. "Please tell me what is going to happen to her or I will go mad." The nurse sighed and said," I don't know and neither does the doctor." She was getting nervous as well. What had happened to the queen? She had not been told anything except that the queen had fainted and that it was the utmost importance to the king to revive her.
The king paced outside the door to the queens private chamber. This the doctor knew, but what he did not know was what was happening right in front of him. The queen had opened her eyes but was not awake. Instead she seemed to be in a trance of sorts. She was speaking in a strange language, but this was not what was bothering the doctor. A light seemed to be emitting from her majesty. A light that moved and swirled around her. It would change colors and grow brighter and then dimmer, but never disappearing.

The Kiss
The kiss caught the queen off guard and for a fleeting moment she was lost in a world, a world which she had only known when she was with her love. She lost herself in that kiss, that one gentle kiss that said so much. Then he pulled away, her breathing still labored, and gazed into her eyes. She saw then that the stranger was her love. She screamed for joy.
The king leaned over to his personal aid and wispered a command. The aid went to the carrage, brought back the chest, and opened it revealing the treasures inside. The king took out the diomond and presented it to his love. The beauty of the gem stunned the queen and she reached out to touch it. As her fingers brushed across the serface a light flashed and then darkness.

To continue the story....
The men that were still at the camp were baffled about the transformation of the king and they asked many questions. So the king told them everything that had happened. After this the king brought his belongings together and left for the his home.
When he arived at his palace the queen came to greet him, but when she saw him she was worried for she did not see her love and and did not recognize the stranger that exited the coach. She began to wonder if a terrible thing had happened to her love and this king from a faraway land had come to take the kingdom from them. She raced to the king and asked where her love was for she was worried. Then the strange king did something she did not expect. The king bent forward and took the queen in his arms and kissed her ever so gently.

Time of Peace
Kvetha Kai Nates,
It has been to long since I have written and I am weary with sorrow, not the sorrow that comes with defeat for the war against Norkvolar ended in our favor, but I am weary for the war has taken the lives of many of our most devoted and courageous warriors many of whom I have been friends with for many a decade. I must busy myself with other things now to relieve my mind of our losses. I am eager to tell you the end of my tale.
The king was baffled that the Captain spoke the strange words that he himself had just come to learn of himself. After a time of surprised silence the king smiled and broke the deathly silence by telling his men what had happened. With eyes wide and ears open the guards were anxious to learn what had transpired while they were unconscious. After the king had done this he and his men returned to the camp and gathered sacks and chests to the room and filled them with the precious gems and sparkling metals. The king always kept a special chest with him for valuables he wished to travel with and set the great gem inside it.

Time of War
Kvetha Nates,
I am very sorry that I have not written for a time, but it has been very hectic here in Azarathia. We have been declared war on by one of our neighboring countries, Norkvolar. Norkvolar is a Hellenistic country where the people practice child sacrifice, worship gods who "demand" the annihilation of inferior beings, and believe in eating their prisoners. They are hated by all other countries because of this. I am to lead our army to the front lines. I walked through the camp last night and saw fear in the eyes of many. I am not afraid for these demons are weak and unlearned in advanced fighting tactics. I must go now and rally the troops. Dunui kai nates se omni ferch salk gomse.

To Resume
Kvetha Nates,
The king soon realized that his guards did not recognize him although he could recognize them. He took that opportunity to play a little joke on them. He began to speak, asking them why they were there.
The guards looked at the man closely and somehow knew that he was the king although he was speaking a language that they had never known before and had changed in appearance, but what really made them uneasy was the fact that they could understand him. This scared them and so they decided to inquire of him his name and why he was there. The Captain of the guard began to speak, all the others turned to him with new wonder even the stranger looked surprised. For in fact the Captain was speaking the language of the stranger.

Guesses
Kvetha Nates,
Sweat poured down the king's forehead. He gently touched the gem with eyes tightly shut. Nothing happened. He had guessed right. As he held the gem in his hands his guards began to arise from their unexpected sleep. The king had entered the room with his guards but as soon as he touched the gem not only did he fall into sleep but his guards as well. Standing on wobbly legs as if they were newly born colts the guards searched fearfully around them. They were searching for their king when they saw, standing next to a podium, a man (or what looked like a man) holding a very large gem. Afraid that the man had captured their king they approached the man and when the man turned around he began to laugh.

Comment
Kvetha Nates,
I received a comment on how this tale was preserved. When the king returned to his palace he had all of his scribes write down all that had happened so that nothing of that mysterious day would be forgotten. He also had a famous painter come to the palace and paint a portrait of the king. This portrait to this day hangs in the halls of that strong king. Later the king had a painting done of the mountain and the room that had changed his life forever. To this day the tale of the king is well known throughout the kingdom.

Surprises
Kvetha Nates,
The king was so surprised to hear this language uttered by himself that he started to say things just to hear the beautiful language. The king realized the value of the gem and decided to take it with him, but he soon remembered what happened when he touched it for the first time. This made the king very sad for he wanted so dearly for his people to be able to enjoy its beauty as well. Then the king thought of something that made all his misery vanish. What if, after he had touched the gem he could touch it again, but without the same effect? He decided to try it. His heart raced as he reached for the wondrous gem.

What happened later
Kvetha,
I hope that you are enjoying the story so far for there is much importance to this tale. And so I shall continue.
When the king awakened from his sleep he found that the gem had nearly doubled in size and when he arose he realized that he was taller, for in fact he was only five feet tall. He had grown to be approximately seven feet tall. When he realized this he searched his body for any other changes and soon learned that his sight was much enhanced even though he was in a dimly light room. He also learned that his hearing was more acute for he could hear birds chirping outside the mountain( and this was no mere act for the king was no less than one mile into the mountainside). His sense of smell was enhanced as well as his taste, he later observed. This made the king overjoyed. He started to sing of his happiness and when he opened his mouth to utter the first note he did not hear the usual English that he normally was used to but instead he heard a language that was strangely powerful yet at the same time soft and beautiful.
