~Dream~

Gloxinia smiled as Rosetta braided Gherade's hair, putting his head in his hands as he rested his elbows on his knees. The crimson haired Fairy King had been married to the lady for a little over a hundred years, and such a life with her was bliss. She had been there by his side since the Fairy Race had begun, and he had always leaned on her for support when he needed it, and vice versa. Rosetta felt a pair of hands gently grab her hair, as the scent of rosemary tickled her nose. "Gloxinia, what are you doing?" she asked, watching as the honey gold eyes she had grown to love met hers. "Just braiding your hair." he responded, starting to braid the white strands into a fishtail braid. Gloxinia then grabbed a few flowers, and started braiding them into her hair. When she tried to turn to look at him as he did so, he would turn her head back to facing straight. "You have to sit still, or I'll mess up, and then I'll have to undo the flowers a bit before I can finish. Besides, I'm almost done." he promised, causing her to nod before sitting still and waiting until he was done. "Alright, finished." he finally said, allowing the woman to look in the mirror that she had been given by Drole as a present not too long ago. She smiled as her eyes took in the sight of the small hyacinth flowers of different shades of blue and purple, dotted along the creases of the braids. They looked like they grew out of the creases in small moss like clumps, but she knew better. "Do you like it?" Gloxinia asked, causing the fairy to nod softly as she turned to face him. "Thank you, it looks beautiful, Gloxinia." she said, causing his face to turn red as he wrapped his arms around her and buried his face in her neck. Gherade cleared her throat, causing Rosetta to turn red faced as well, as she stuttered profusely before eventually giving up on trying to stop her lover from embarrassing her. "This is why I think the two of you are cute together." she commented, as Rosetta hid her face in her hands to cover the red that dusted her cheeks. "Idiot." she mumbled to him, causing Gloxinia to smile softly. "I know you still love me." he mumbled into her neck, his breath giving rise to goosebumps on her skin. "Gloxinia." The two heard behind them, and the two looked back to see Drole and Gaia. The ladder had on the ring that Drole had given her when he had married her, while Rosetta had a bracelet that matched Gloxinia's, a beautiful moon rose whose petals were unfurled, revealing a small charm of a rainbow colored butterfly and a golden bee at the center. Gaia had also been given a set of gold forearm bracelets and regular bracelets that matched Drole's by Dubs, who had helped Drole initially with both asking the lady on a date, and with the wedding plans. The four started talking, and the subject somehow ended up going to Meliodas and Elizabeth. "Well, I personally think that those two are going to have kids and get married. I mean, have you seen the way he looks at the girl? There's no way that those two aren't getting hitched, and I don't care about what Ludociel says about those two being different. It really doesn't matter, and even Arcadia, Ludociel's own sister, is on board and all for being the flower girl at the wedding, too." Rosetta said. Gloxinia smirked as he looked over when she mentioned children. "Well, speaking of children, when are we going to have any of those?" he asked, burying his face in her neck as he kissed the soft skin. She swatted him away as she spoke. "You're impossible!" she yelled, red covering her face as Drole watched Gaia as she snickered. "Well, he is right after all. I certainly wouldn't mind having quite a few children myself." she said, causing Drole's face to flush and turn red. "Drole, is something wrong?" she asked, knowing full well why he was blushing. He covered his cheeks with his four hands, looking to the side as she looked up at him. "No, shut up." he shot back, his eyes still wide in surprise. "Are you sure nothing's wrong, Drole?" Gloxinia teased, causing the brunette to glare over at the fairy. "I don't know, Rosetta, do you feel comfortable having this conversation?" he asked, causing the female to shake her head furiously as she continued to hide her face in her hair. "Careful, the flowers will fall out if you keep shaking your head like that." Gloxinia cautioned. Gaia and Gloxinia laughed, high fiving, before they changed the subject. "Anyways, me and Glox here were walking in the forest yesterday, and it turns out that there's a very large spring that is also very deep as well. It's practically clear, and there's a waterfall that feeds into it. The two of us both agreed that it's a wonderful spot to relax, and there are a lot of beautiful flowers there, too." she said, looking at Rosetta. The fairy smiled, leaning against her husband, before she sensed an almost suffocating malevolent air starting to weigh down on them.

~Dream End~

Rosetta jolted awake and looked around, sighing shakily as she drew her knees to her chest. That dream was from the day she had lost everything, aside from Gherade, of course, but she lost her husband, and Gaia lost hers. Said giant was asleep, but sensed the fear in the fairy next to her, and opened her eyes to look at her friend. "Rose, is everything alright?" she asked, looking over at the former Fairy Queen. "Yeah, just the same stupid nightmare from the day we lost everything, but it still hurts." she said, looking down at the hyacinth flowers that had started to grow around the flower bed she rested on. It was mid morning, but they both felt it when it hit. The seal had been broken, and the Ten Commandments were free from their three thousand year long exile from the Surface. Both of the women packed their things and left, the only trace they left of anyone occupying the place being the flower beds that Rosetta had made for the two of them. The two headed toward Camelot, where they promised that they would meet Arcadia if, or better put, when this happened.

~Meanwhile, not too far from Edinburgh~

Hendrickson stared at his friend, no, the thing possessing his friend, in wide eyed horror as he was told to go wherever he liked. The druid had been put under Fraudrin's spell for too long, and he hated what he had done, hating himself for what he had done. Bitter tears stung his teal eyes as he thought of Arcadia, and how he had stabbed her multiple times before she eventually fled, avoiding killing her lover altogether. He then tensed up in pure cold fear when he sensed the presence of nine other demons behind him. "It's been a while, hasn't it, comrades?" the demon possessing Dreyfus said, looking at the Ten Commandments.

Hendrickson struggled to get to where he could rest and warn the people of the oncoming danger, and was surprised when he was lifted up by a cloaked figure, who gave him a fanged smile. "Relax, druid who I currently hate. The chewing out shall be done by the others." she said. He recognized the voice as Lilith, Arcadia's friend, as a woman he knew all too well approached. "Let's not do that to this one, I have a feeling that he's been through enough with being the one that Fraudrin used to break the seal that kept those ten monsters in their cages. Let us leave the decision on what will happen to him to Arcadia, alright?" she asked, helping the man to get to where he could rest for a bit. She then went into the nearest town and bought a set of white clothes for him to wear. He thanked the lady, and went to change before coming back out to the two. "Where is Arcadia? I have to apologize to her, please." he practically begged, causing Midnight to smile softly. "She's safe, and she's most likely aware that you're still alive. Our girl is far too smart to not look for you in the land of the dead, I assure you. However, that leads us to where we must go, the villages that the Commandments will target first, and to Istar, where Jenna and Zenari have our true power sealed." she explained, causing Hendrickson to sigh deeply in defeat. "However, Arcadia's power is still sealed there as well, so she'll likely be traveling there to get it back, along with Meliodas' power as well." Lilith said, causing the male's eyes to light up ever so slightly. "Now then, let's get going, shall we?" the vampiress asked, as Midnight picked up Hendrickson and took off, carrying their belongings as well.

Lilith sensed Gilthunder, Howzer, and Griamore, and dropped Hendrickson off in a village nearby. The two then told him that they would meet up with him in Istar when he got there, and took off. Shortly after the Trio of Troublemakers killed one of the Red Demons, they were faced with a Gray Demon. "It feels like it's exactly like Hendrickson was when he fused with the demon back in Liones, and it seems a lot more powerful as well." Griamore observed as Howzer prepared to attack it, but the voice of Hendrickson stopped them. "That's because it is more powerful. It's a Gray Demon. If you think it's as weak as its red counterpart, then you're sorely mistaken. I have no doubt that we'll have to combine our powers to defeat it as well." he said, causing all three of them to recoil in surprise as they all spoke in unison. "Hendrickson?!"

Arcadia sighed deeply as she watched the fight between Meliodas and the albion, thinking of how she should be getting her power back in Istar. However, she agreed that she would stay in Camelot until the others aside from Lilith and Midnight got there. Luckily, Gaia and Rosetta were there, and Guinevere was in Camelot's castle, since she had passed out from the incident a little under a week ago that had happened in Liones. In all fairness, since Arcadia was occupied with helping to do repairs back in Liones, she hadn't been able to get to Camelot and help with waking the girl up. Arthur was very worried for the girl, but he still had hope that she would be alright. Arcadia watched as a dark presence made its way closer to where the kingdom was, before dust flew and clouded everything, only for Arcadia to sense exactly who it was that had landed in Camelot. "Seventy steps, hm, I could usually make it that distance in sixty, but I suppose that I am quite rusty from all that time in the seal." Galand said, cackling when he spoke. "I am Galand of the Ten Commandments. Prepare to die, lowly parasites of the surface world." he said, one of his eyes glowing green as he spoke.
