I promised myself I would never write anything about you being "dear" but it does seem that it has fallen that way, hmm? I also barely ever write at all so this feels weird as is. The only reason I write here today is to discuss my thoughts on an idea my friend, Neth, had a few moments ago. In her own words "Guys! I got an awesome idea! or was it a theory..? Anyways, I think I have heard where the ancient city is! Exiting, right!? Yeah!? So, I was thinking we could go! Also, Eur! I heard that there might be a GIANT rat protecting the city! Whaddya think!?". She seemed very exited on only a rumor. Sigh. Yet since I am young and apparently young adults are stupid, I said yes. I will write in here to document me and my friends journey so that if I am found dead, the discoverers know the cause.' Aust closed the diary as they looked around their room one last time before leaving. They said their goodbyes quickly and ran out to meet with their friends: Neth and Eur. This was going to be fun. CHAPTER ONE/THE PLAN: Aust hurried out of their family's house, saying their goodbyes to their parents and siblings. Once they made their way out to their friends, Neth greeted them. "Aust! So glad we can make this trip! Oh my goddess! So, should we go to 'The peculiar happenings' to talk more in depth?" Neth was practically flying up and down with how high she was jumping (From excitement!)."Sure." Aust and Eur said in unison. As the group made their way to the tavern, Eur stayed quiet. Until, however, Aust spoke. "Hey, Eur? You have been quiet this whole walk. Are you okay?" Eur looked surprised that Aust had asked that. "Hm? Oh, I guess I'm getting sentimental. This place holds a lot of memories. Especially there." Eur pointed to the hospital that was nearby. Yes. Lots of bittersweet memories were made there. "Oh, I see then. Just remember, We are always here to support you!" "Yeah!!" Neth chimed in. "Thank you both! Maybe it'll be good to be by ourselves and out of Flaton for awhile, too! ...I might even find someone to be mine!" She said, enthusiastically. Aust was rolling their eyes yet, they had a big smile across their face. And Neth being Neth, was beaming eat to ear. "Yes! Totally! You'll definitely find a guy to love you while we're out here! I believe in you, Eur!" The group laughed. They eventually made their way to the groups favorite eatery in town, 'The peculiar happenings'! The owner greeted them with a smile, and directed them to their table. "Some teas to start would be nice please!" Neth asked before reaching into her backpack to grab a map of the queendom. "This, is the map of Everlong queendom, ruled by queen Zel!" She pointed to a quaint looking town on the east side of the map. "This is where the city is supposedly buried! The town above it is called Gerdonn. That is where we are headed!" Aust stared at the map for a moment before asking "Is that the famous giant library? If so, can we visit? They have thousands of books and I would enjoy looking." Just then, the drinks come out. "Before that, let's eat!" CHAPTER TWO/LEAVING HOME WORK IN PROGRESS! Please come back later!
