Bab 239: Homecoming of the Queen

Flying over her homeland, Nazneen could feel her heart pounding. She had been away for so long, locked away from her people and the world. She had not seen her home for so long. What did it look like now after so many years? Was everything still the same or was it so changed that she wouldn't recognize anything at all? A part of her hoped some things were still the same so she could cherish those memories. 

As they landed with the guards and the messengers by their side, Ares got off her back she shifted. Others who were unable to attend the ceremony gathered together to witness the new queen's arrival. Now, she truly felt nervous as the responsibilities of her role dawned on her. She could hear her own heartbeat. Bad, she thoughts since everyone else could hear it as well. She tried to calm down when she felt a hand on the small of her back. She turned to Ares who was beside her and he gave her a light stroke on the back without turning to her.
