No one would have thought that Carla was gone today, everyone was shocked. Vincent, Ellena, King Harris, Queen Abella and Quely come to the palace of Corvus. Quely is in Elio's room to accompany Elio who has been silent ever since he fainted.
Meanwhile, Vincent, Ellena, King Harris and Queen Abella weep near Carla's coffin. Finished bathed Carla's body wrapped in several layers of cloth to cover all the wounds on her body and only leave her face that looks beautiful and peaceful.
However, Carla's family did not stop crying, especially her parents who continued to shed tears at the edge of Carla's coffin.
“I'm sorry dad, I know it's too late. Yet... I wish you could hear this and forgive me. Because it already treated you harshly back then.” Vincent
The crying Queen Ellena suddenly fainted. Vincent carries Ellena's body to pull over with the help of Queen Abella. While King Harris was still standing parallel to Carla's lutu then he walked parallel to Carla's face his tears flowed smoothly but his cries did not sound.
“You... Best sister. You're the only sister I love Carla the most. You're brave even though you're stubborn but I'm lucky you're like that. However, today and this death I do not want. Come back, what about your son Elio? Can you leave him? Take it easy, I'll keep Elio as his uncle and Aiden.” King Harris said softly
King Harris took a few steps back and paid special tribute, releasing his crown and bowing for a few minutes in honor of his sister.
After that, King Harris sat on one of the empty benches and Ellena walked up to Carla's coffin in a weak way.
“My darling Carla... Why are you like this, baby? Why did you leave mom? Daddy's? Your brother and son? Come back baby, mom will take care and hug me longer and will not let go until anytime. You..” Ellena cried again and again
“You... hikss.. mother... hiks... ask... sorry.... to you son. Be well there” Ellena stood assisted by Queen Abella who had stood guard behind her.
Later, Ellena salutes Vincent and Queen Abella.
“Goodbye Her Majesty Queen Carla” Said Queen Abella
Aiden sitting next to the coffin can only display a flat face and his eyes are red and puffy, not much different from Maverick and Princess Lily. They were all devastated by Carla's departure.
Axain's? Axain was in the front seat that kept staring at the chest nonstop, the shadows of memories with Carla all aired in his brain. And everything seemed beautiful to her, but she didn't know that Carla would leave her this soon. Even this was like a dream to him.
(Say this is a dream, so wake me up. I could no longer) Axain's inner self, and he cried in silence.
Meanwhile, all the princes and princesses take turns to see Carla and pay their last respects to Carla. Including Prince Gavin, he drew closer to Carla's chest and smiled on the sidelines of her silent cries.
“Hai, good afternoon. This is our last meeting, right? I didn't expect this last meeting to be so unfair. I see you but you don't see me even you're asleep at the moment. Carla's... You're the first princess to make it to my heart, I know Aiden won your heart, but to be honest I'm happy to like you so brave for a royal princess...
Nice to know you, nice to be friends with you, I wish you could be happy there. I end this all including my feelings, goodbye beautiful princess.” Prince Gavin took a few steps back and paid a long tribute to Carla and after that he sat down but unwittingly his tears flowed smoothly on his cheeks.
Elio kept quiet and Quely kept trying to get Elio to eat, drink, play. However, it was not all influenced by Elio.
He just kept quiet.
“Elio handsome, don't you be sad like this. I came to comfort you” Quely hugged Elio
“Will my mom not play with me anymore? She won't sleep, kiss me and hug me again?” Elio
“No no no, my mother said. Aunt Carla will definitely still sleep with you, hug you and kiss you handsome prince” Quely
“Elio, I'm here. You don't have to cry. You have to believe what I said earlier, your mother is here” Quely pointed to Elio's heart
Elio fell silent and looked at Quely's face with a puzzled look
“Interested?” Elio touched the exact spot Quely pointed at earlier
Quely nodded “Your mother is here Elio”
Elio just kept holding it with both hands, Queen Abella told Quely to say such a thing to Elio. Because Queen Abella knew, Elio would definitely ask her mother and the habits that her mother did would not feel anymore.

And at Aiden's request, Carla was buried in the back of the palace. All agreed, and now was the time to bury Carla's coffin into the ground. The procession was carried out according to the procedures of the palace of Corvus. Before being buried, everyone gave farewell and honor for 1 minute together.
After that, the coffin will be carried to the burrow accompanied by a sword salute. When he arrived at the burrow and the coffin had begun to be buried, Aiden laid his flowers and said the words before leaving Carla's tomb.
“Carla... I will take care of Elio as much as I can, I will take care of him and love him. Everyone doesn't want this to happen, including me... Why do you have to leave me when my position is up? I became king in the court of Corvus and you were his queen, but you chose this. Forgive me for not being able to take good care of you, sorry for not helping you against that tiger.
I'm sorry, it's all my fault, all because of my negligence. If only it wasn't the inauguration to be king, I'm sure you'd still be smiling and there in my arms right now. I miss your laughter that I will never hear again, I miss your sweet smile that I will never see again. I know you won't hear all of my words.
However, I'm sure. You're looking at me right now from up there, aren't you? Even so, trust me and be sure that I will not marry anyone. Only you and only Ariel Carla Nataline Alexandrine Rumpelstiltskin will I marry, I love, I love, I love, I miss for as long as I live. There won't be any more women after you. Believe this. Be well there my wife..” Aiden let out a small breath and stood up.
He smiled at a rock bearing Carla's name down there, and Aiden entered the palace. Like this is the end of Carla's life, she dares to take responsibility even though she wants to avoid it. However, fate chased after her, since breaking through the portal all her dreams became clues and dangerous things approached Carla.
Dare to take responsibility, although sometimes not as expected. However, responsibility remains responsibility.
...🍁...
The sun's heat is decreasing, and the clear sky will turn dark. However, it did not make a small child who was sitting in the front yard of this palace rise from his seat. He continued to stare towards the gate where he saw his mother being brought in from that direction.
And I don't know what he was thinking, so the boy ran into the forest and walked slowly while sneaking through the forest. He hid behind a large tree when a broken wooden branch sounded in his ear.
And at that very moment he saw a white tiger that was not too big standing in front of him. He opened his eyes wide when he saw the tiger, before long his eyes traced the hands of the tiger who guessed that the hand of the animal was what made his mother bleed.
The boy showed his body in front of the tiger bravely, he did not even carry any weapons. The tiger did not attack, even he just stared at the boy standing in front of him.
Not long after, the tiger lay on the ground and bowed its head like he was respecting the child. Yes, that child is Elio.
