Tyr helps Astri bathe after she throws up her dinner. She’s a bit pale, and still nauseous, so the bath is helping her a lot. He helps her to dry and dress, then he brings her to bed and tries to feed her again.
While she was being fed, Claud, Wayde, and Lee ca to visit through Claud’s soul and found her eating slowly and concentrating on not vomiting again. They watch Tyr tuck her to sleep and she falls asleep quickly. Worried about her health, they ask how her day was and Tyr tells them everything that happened.

Getting ready to go et Klark, Astri takes a tea that helps with nausea. She also asked for li, so she could always sll it because it helps with this hard phase.
"Do you really want to go? I can ask him to co here." Tyr asks, rubbing her back.
"When I do sothing I end up not thinking about this and it helps. I want to walk in the sun too later." She answers.
"All right. But if you get too nauseated again we will co back."
"I think the sll of blood made things worse. I’ll be fine."
They link arms and start to walk until they find Saul, who brings them to a eting room. Saul and Keane made sure there was no one around and they guard the door and window.
"My King." Klark bows to Tyr. "My Queen." Then he bows to Astri.
Astri smiles and bows to him too.
"My King."
And Tyr bows too. Klark felt that the deep respect is reciprocal and he’s very happy.
"What you wanted to talk to , my King?" Klark asks.
"Sothing very important, King Klark. I told everyone that I’m giving my position as King to you because I’m following my mate. That’s only one reason. Now, I’ll tell only you the full story and reason for to leave with my mate." Tyr answers.
"Let’s sit." Astri points to the pillows.
They sit and then Tyr tells the whole story. Astri shows her powers to Klark a little just to prove to him who she is, and also passes him mories of what she was doing the last months and the agreent with Abel.
Klark is more than impressed.
"So you’re leaving for a greater mission, and to protect your mate. I’m happy to know we have such powerful allies. I was worried about how the high society would behave after you leave since the females were angry after discovering you chose your Queen." Klark says.
"Astri and the Higher Priest can get in contact with anyone over a long distance. We will be always in contact with you and warn you if sothing wrong is being done behind the curtains. Do be careful with so Elders, like Abel, the most dangerous ones I already banished, but Abel is only here to keep us notified of corrupted people because he’s also corrupted. He’s a spy, but he only answers to us because he fears Astri and the Higher Priest will kill him." Tyr explains.
"I never liked him. But now I understand the reason you kept him. I’ll keep an eye on him." Klark says.
"I’m sure you will be an amazing King. Rember that changes will always need movent and many people don’t like to move. It’s more comfortable doing nothing. I believe that in so ways if you’re doing sothing wrong, evil won’t co at you." She says, and they’re confused.
"Isn’t it the opposite?" Tyr asks.
"If you’re doing sothing wrong, evil will say ’Don’t ss with him. He’s doing sothing wrong, he’s my favorite’. Now, if soone evil cos at you, maybe it’s because you’re doing sothing right." Now they understood what she said and how deep that was. "Since you’re doing the right thing, evil will always lurk around to try to get you, King Klark. Work so the path to you is hard. Shield yourself with other good people, good warriors. Teach them to be good. Teach females to be good too."
Klark nods, taking that to heart. Learning even more how important it is to be a King.
"You’re more than ready to be King. Choose the bests to protect you." Tyr says.
Klark nods again and Astri can see worry in his face a little.
"Are you worried about sothing?" She asks.
"It’s just.. What happens if I need your counseling? It will be hard to hear from you when I need it." Klark answers.
"You just need to call ." She answers, and he looks at her. "Nature is my eyes and ears. If you call , thinking deeply about , I’ll hear and we will get in contact with you. If you’re in danger, I’ll know too. I was the one who warned Tyr about an Elder trying to poison him."
"All right.. I understand. I’ll try." Klark says.
"Believe. We would never let you alone. Keane will stay here with you, and later we will send you other guardians capable of protecting you and that you also can trust with your life."
"Great.. How many spouses do you have? You must have at least 20 with your beauty." Klark says.
"No. I can’t handle that. I have 7, though. And there’s a rman that might beco my spouse one day. So it would be 8.. Wow.. I didn’t know I would end up having so many spouses. I’m crazy." She answers and then starts to talk to herself after realizing how much things have changed after she arrived in the Beastn World.
In the beginning, having more than one spouse would be impossible for her because she was raised in the Human World, however, now that her mind naturally got used to the natural way of living of beastn, having many spouses is not a hard thing to think about.
There’s only one thing that she will never change in her mind, though: She will only mate with soone she loves.
At night, she decides to go talk to Koa. She still hasn’t talked to him since Kangki’s incident, and there was always sothing in her mind not letting her rest. After talking to Claud, Wayde, and Lee, she ditates to talk to Koa.
She finds him on the beach, looking at the sea. He sighs, gloomy and also worried. She smiles and sits beside him, watching his handso and unique profile.
"Don’t look like that.. Your smile is always more beautiful." She says, surprising him.
"Astri?! Oh Nature! Where were you all this ti?! Do you have any idea of how worried I was?!"
"I know.. I’m sorry."
She tells him the whole story and his heart breaks into little pieces when he learns what happened to her. So many things happened to her and he was far away, not capable of protecting her.
"And that’s it. I’m sorry I made you worried."
"No.. Don’t apologize. You didn’t ask for that. And your pregnancy? Will you be alright during the trip? Don’t risk your health this way." He says.
"It will be tiring but I’ll be fine. I would rather have my litter with all my spouses around... I wish you could be there too."
His heart skips a beat, and he feels happiness in his heart again.
"I’m sorry. That’s very selfish of to say that. Forget what I said, being pregnant will make say things easily." She awkwardly says.
"No.. Don’t say that. It makes happy to know you still think of as your spouse. I’m the luckiest male alive for having your love back. My heart is with you always."
"How couldn’t I love you back?" She chuckles.
He smiles hearing her cute giggles.
"How are things over there?" She asks.
He tells her how things are changing little by little, and how long he believes that he will stay there. He also told her he saw Biggie in the ocean, and that Biggie tried to play with him. But it’s impossible to follow Biggie, he will always win.
Biggie sees Koa as a savior too because he was the one who went inside his mouth to tie the wooden pillar, so when he sees Koa he wants to play.
After talking a bit more, Astri has to go because she’s getting tired and he tells her to go and rest and also to talk to him just when she’s well-rested and not risking her health and safety.
When she’s gone, he sighs feeling his heart going cold again. He doesn’t want to feel this way forever, so he’s more than focused on doing what he has to do.

After a few more days, it’s finally ti to go back ho. Astri taught builders to put wheels on litters, turning them into carriages, this way the beastn would only need to direct and push it, making the travel faster and less tiring.
Tyr stays in the litter with her all the ti, keeping her company and giving her support when she’s not feeling good.
After 12 days of traveling, Astri hears a commotion and the warriors running around as they are preparing for battle. Tyr leaves the litter to check what is happening, and that’s when he sees two dragons coming from above the clouds and descending in their direction.
