King Ahmed says to Ishtar we will talk as we ride. Is that alright? Ishtar says to the King that will be good. So they depart from the Palace and go down the stone steps to where the horses are waitin. King Ahmed tells Cassem they are going out for a ride alone. Ishtar can see the lights of the fireflies all around the Palace. They especially seem to be aroung where there are trees and plants.
King Ahmed helps Ishtar mount her horse and then he mounts Arabia. (I decided that Ishtar's saddle is not ornate after all. The saddle is just a really nice leather saddle for a woman.) King Ahmed and Ishtar ride slowly down the road to the base of the Fortress. The King tells Ishtar they will travel along the edge of the Rain Forest so that they can see the fireflies flying about. Morocco is a gentle horse and the King tells Ishtar she is doing very well. After awhile they come to the outer perimeter of the Rain Forest and they can see many of the fireflies traveling about. King Ahmed says to Ishtar that it was really spectacular to see them the other night we he and Pharess were leaving the camp of Chief Maboto. Aroung this time of year the male fireflies are looking for the female fireflies. The display is spectacular to see. King Ahmed travel along to the river that leads to the Port where the sailing ships are anchored. There is a path that runs along the river and the King tells Ishtar let us walk for awhile so that we can talk. With that they dismount and walk along leading the horses. King Ahmed explains to Ishtar that he will have to make a trip to the far off continent of Kurata so that he can speak to the ruler there so Ishtar I will be gone for while. Before I go I will make the arrangements for our wedding. I expect you to go to Kimbala to choose your wedding clothing. They must be traditional Arabic wedding clothes. Choose what you like. I will pick out a ring for you. I'll try to pick out something you will like. I want you to go with Neeta and Moara. Travel at night, it will be cooler. Cassem will drive you and some of my men will travel with you. Ishtar tells the King I will do as you ask. At this time Ishtar asks King Ahmed about the orphanages and she wants to know if the children have been awkened from the sleep of death. King Ahmed tells Ishtar that sad as it is this is true. He goes onto explain that some of the older boys will go to work on a farm if the man is willing to take any of them in. And sometimes a family will feel bad about the lost children and they will take one or two of them. But even here the orphanages exist and the children arrived throught the porthole alone. Ishtar tells the King she will visit them to check out the conditiond and the routine of the orphanages. King Ahmed agrees this will be a good thing for Ishtar to do. He then tells Ishtar that he has people montitor these places. He tells her she will have to meet with Croissa as she is the one in charge of what goes on with the children who stay there. Croissa lives in the city of Kimbala you can meet with her when you travel there for the clothes for the wedding. Just go to the orphanage and introduce yourself. Tomorro I think we should go to the bank so that you can have an account of your own and be able to write checks. As long as you have Neeta and Moara with you, you may stay overnight in Kimbala. Personally visit with the children and explain who you are. Furthermore I want you to continue to study the books in the attic. They have ancient information in them. Now we shall mount back on our horses and ride back to the Palace through Najat. WitchQueen |

King Ahmed and Ishtar have now returned to the Palace. Cassem has met them at the bottom of the stone steps and King Ahmed and Ishtar dismount. Cassem takes the reins of the horses and leads them away to the stables which is located at the back of the Palace.
King Ahmed needs sleep. He has not slept for three days now. Ishtar and him climb the stairs to the courtyard of the Fortress and go inside of the Palace. "Ishtar", says the King, "It is necessary for me to get some sleep now so I expect you will be able to amuse yourself for awhile". "Alright", says Ishtar and with that King Ahmed goes up the stairs to his room. He really should go to the waterfall and program the wireless monitor to scan the Galaxy for any unusual activity. This will have to wait until the morrow though as even for him rest is necessary. With that the King prepares for bed. He falls to sleep immediately. It is now ten-thirty and Ishtar decided to go up to the attic room with a candle and see what else is there. But first she makes sure that Nadia, the cook has feed Tartufe and let him outside. Ishtar decides to make a cup of tea with lemon and take it up to the attic room with her. While the tea pot is on Ishtar takes the lighted candle up to the attic and places it in a safe place. Then she closes the door and goes back downstairs to make her tea. After the tea is made she again climbs the stone staircase back up to the attic. She places the tea on the table by the round window that overlooks the courtyard and garden below. Ishtar decides to read the book about disappearing and materializing somewhere else. This is considered a magic book for the supernatural. As Ishtar reads the book she sees that Nymph Faires are capable of this and also the supernataural such as herself. She follow the directions to study how to do this practice. You must stand and concentrate about diappearing. You must concentrate intensely which she does and then you must think about where you want to materialize instead of where you are. About this time Malika appears on the table in front of the round window. Malika wants to know what Ishtar is doing. Ishtar explains that she wants to disappear and show up somewhere else. Malika tells her this is easy to do if you are one of those who have powers. Ishtar tells Malika she does have powers. Malika tells Ishtar she does this all of the time. With that Malika then becomes her full adult size. Ishtar is impressed. Ishtar asks, "What shall I do?" Malika tells Ishtar to concentrate intensely on the stable. It is not too far. She tells Ishtar that she will meet her there. The Nymph Fairy tells Ishtar that King Ahmed is also capable of disappearing too. With that she was gone. Ishtar thinks, "Well here goes and with that she disappeared and came back inside of the stable. Malika was there waiting for her. Malika tells Ishtar she must practice doing this so that she can disappear effortlessly. Ishtar promises Malika she will practice. And then Malika left. Ishtar disappears again and returns to the attic room. Finishes her tea and takes the cup and the candle back downstairs to the kitchen. Now Ishtar decides it is time for her to get ready for bed so she goes back upstairs and prepares herself for sleep. WitchQueen |

I have decided to change the name of the King's ship to Arabia and change the name of his horse to be Pegasus. I hope this does not cause any confusion.
I have also decided to let Razrif and Freemocy be two more of the King's men who travel with him and Pharess on the ship to the continent of Kruata. I will make someone else to be the Captain of the ship. I think that this will work out to be a better idea. Then the three of them can do other things together. I hope all of you like these ideas. The story progresses. WitchQueen |

Razrif, I really wanted to put you in the story, now I am wondering what I shall do. I changed your part from being the Captain to that of being one of the King's men. You get a horse. Well you would still have to travel on the ship across the ocean.
I just want to make it clear that I would not use anyone's name if they do not want me to. But you really would be good to be with King Ahmed, Pharess and Freemoncy. It's that or I have to keep you with the monkey. The kitten is cute. You like cats. You posted two of them yourself giving a massage. "Think about it". WitchQueen |

King Ahmed is restless. He knows that he must introduce Ishtar to his children and his Concubines. The Concubines are all from the planet of Quetta. King Ahmed went to Quetta not long after he first arrived on Xanthia. He knew from a long ago story that his destiny would be with the Witch Ishtar. She called herself the WitchQueen. He had a dream about Ishtar and coming to Xanthia. He became the King one year after he spent time here on this planet. He was told by an old man who lived on Xanthia about Quetta. He told Ahmed if he wanted to have a wife he could go to Quetta throught the porthole in the cave by the mountains. King Ahmed wanted to explore. Twas the angel Michael that told him since only him, the old man and the Watanis were there on Xanthia. The angel told him he was to be King of the entire planet but he should assign someone elst to rule the Kruatain continent. The angel explained that some one worthy was to come soon. His name would be Rashid. You are to expect him and help him to set up Kruata. The angel then told Ahmed that he is to have final say if a dispute arises. He went on to say that Rashid can be worked with.
About Quetta, King Ahmed decided to travel there so that he would have some Concubines, so this is what he did. The Concubines were purchased by the King. He purchased the women from King Abata of Quetta. Quetta is kind of a wild place and over a time some of the other men who arrived on Xanthia traveled to Quetta for wives. Of course other men on Xanthia chose wives from the women who arrived from the planet Earth. There are other planets with humans who could be wives of the Arabs here and that also includes Afghanis. Some of them are on Xanthia too. King Ahmed has decided that it is time for Ishtar to meet his Concubines and his other children. Tomorrow is to abe best for this. In the meantime Ibraham has been in the Rain Forest with Couto. The two of them have been practicing the bow and arrow with the poison tip. Couto has also shown Ibraham where the Watinis grow the Susha plants. All of the Susha plants are poisonous. Especially the seeds. The Watinis grind up the seeds and make a powdery paste which they coat the arrows with. The will be able to use this against the Druids should they attack. They can use the poison from the Susha plandt as well as the venom from the Sun Snake. And they also will collect some of the poisonous spiders that they avoid. Ibraham's mother is sick. She has been a good mother to him and has taught him to respect his father. She has been very honored to be the mother of a Prince. She wants to go back to Quetta and be buried there. Munna, the mother wants Ibraham to cooperate with the Witch. Someday she tells her son, you will also be a Great Ruler somewhere. I knew about this Witch a long time ago and my place is my place. Ibraham tells Munna he will do as she asks. WitchQueen |
