“There are few things i will say before, nobody stops me while i am doing the treatment, even if you have seen it before all things i will do is related to treatment and betterment of her. Especially you, Rivena.”
She looked towards the princess then nodded.
“And lastly,princess, during the treatment you need to talk with me. You can't keep quiet and for my part I will explain what I am doing so you can relax.”
I am quite confident of my conversation skills and getting them to talk about themselves. I have extracted gossip from the quietest of people. Let's see how it goes with her.
I started by applying analgesic gel to her neck and shoulders,while explaining that this will numb the sensations she feels for the duration of the treatment.
The black spots were all over her body. It was quite a challenge and a time consuming work.
“When i came here i started to read about the history and dungeon of Arkenfall, and i understand how much pressure you have on your shoulders. The weight of legacy and responsibility weighs so much that it's negatively impacting your body.” I said,
“It is a responsibility I have to fulfill till I live, like my mother did and I will follow her path to death..”
“Its quite admirable that you want to follow her path, can you tell me more about her.” done applying the gel, i pulled up the percussion massager and started working on the muscles.
“Mother was strong and and a kind queen, she followed her belief and taught me do the same. Despite having the responsibility to manage a kingdom she always spent time with me. Tell me what she did that day.It was mostly at night under the pergola, in the library, and sometime in kitchen when i ask her to make me a midnight sweet. She even scolded father if he personally didn't spend time talking with me or training me. She was strong, beautiful and always did the right thing. Growing up I realise my abilities are not sufficient, I can never be like her.”
I set up the TENS unit connecting it to the muscles so the tissues warms up and loosen up and reduce the pain perception.
“I have seen people far greater, stronger,famous and wealthier than you, even if they doubt their abilities when faced with a situation they can not comprehend. But they never stopped, they cast their doubts and moved forward. Maybe your mother may have been the same but she never showed them.”
“Why would she hide it? And what if you move forwards and still find nothing. “
“Every parent wants to be the hero in their kid's story. And she played the role quite well in your story. But fear not you didn't force them to do so or they never felt burdened by your unsaid expectation. It may have been the source of her motivation that's why she told you about them. Your smile and joy is what would have maintained their will even in the toughest situation.”
I removed the TENS unit. Seeing there is no side effect to the treatment. I started a gentle light massage.
“Think you are on an expedition to find a treasure in the ocean. On the way you find a mountain which you need to cross over to reach it. You have to think about a way to cross it, either you break the mountain to cross it, go around it ,climb over, the answer lies whether your strength lies. Sometimes you need to find a solution nobody has found. Because nobody has answered the question, the treasure still lies there.“
“But what if there is no treasure?”
“Then you got fooled.”
“There has to be more to it.”
“There is nothing more about it. Return to your home and think about it.are you still willing to start a journey for a hidden treasure or you will return to the work you are doing before.”
I started repeating the process in other parts of her body. While observing her body's reaction to the treatment.
“Why do you do this job.?”
“My job — let's say my dream was different from what I am doing now. During the training period I overused my body which resulted in an injury. I never recovered from it. The person who treated me said ‘You don't always get to arrive. Sometimes you only get to point the way.’ for a long time I didn't understand what it meant. Till i started this job. And started treating people like you. Who made the mistake as I did?”
“What about - “ she got startled as i started to work on her lower back to butt.
“Part of the process.” I said,ensuring her. “Continue what you are saying.”
“What would you do if there was no other way? You have to pursue it even after the injury.”
“I never thought about it, but in your case there will be multiple people helping you with your job. A treasurer in case of money, an advisor while you have trouble making a decision. A whole council of people will be there to help. Whether they like you becoming queen or not that's a totally different matter.”
Now for the final part I used medical compression wraps with muscle relaxant patches. To wrap it around the treated part. So the muscles don't re-seize before the next session.
“And it's not like you will have to deal with it alone. When you will become a queen you will also find a king to rule beside you. Like your father was there for your mother. And don't move from here.”
I then instructed Kierra to keep the equipment safely in the princess room. And help her in keeping in organizing them. Also warning her that nobody should touch it, if it gets damaged her treatment can't be continued.
The princess has a clock to watch the time, and instructs Kierra to remove the compression wraps after 4 hours and patches will be removed 2 hours after. And she will lay like this in the bed and cannot twist or turn.
With the help of Rivena I picked her up and laid her on the bed on stomach. I was hugging her from the back. Hoping at least it would complete one quest.
Using the opportunity I got close to her ears and whispered. “You also have these loyal servants alongside you and now also me. And will you just forgive me for just small things.”
She looked at me with suspicion. “For what?”
Still whispering. “You will see.”
Then I rose up and in a serious tone I said. “Rivena, you need to keep her feet straight, don't turn in it. It will strain her muscles.”
As she was focused on adjusting her legs. I turned toward the princess, raised my hand and smacked her butt.lightly.
Then ran, with my life at stake. I could hear the princess laughing and then crashing. Rivena must have thrown something.

With a grin on my face I reached my room.
