*Rova's pov*
Rova followed Salina out of the temple, they entered the carriage and Salina leaned forward to give directions to the coach that Rova didn't quite catch.
The carriage lunched foward and Rova watched the scenery change until they arrived at a market. Confused Rova followed Salina out of the carriage and towards the stalls.
The strong scent of the sea hit Rova as they approached. The market was large with people running around bargaining, negotiating, and buying items from merchants and farmer stalls. The market was near the port some stalls were on the boats that sat on the ocean waves tied to the dock.
Salina walked through the bustling crowed Rova followed close behind her, "where are we going?" She asked, "the war beast stalls!" Salina responded as she pushed her way through the crowds.
Salina stopped in front of a large stall with cages. Alivaian creatures sat inside the cages some were laying down. From Margainals, Nilirikes, Minvanixes, and Alixia's their was some turfixes tied to poles.
Salina walked up to the stall owner, and old merchant with white hair and beard, and kind hazel eyes.
"Hello your highness, how may I help you today!?" The man said as he bowed with a kind smile, "you looking for a specific beast?"
"Yes, that one should be fine!" Salina responded while pointing at a large Navy blue Nilirike it look young with large red eyes, it's ears flicked forward as it stared at them.
"This one!" The man sounded confused as he reached over and picked the pup up, "are you sure? It's still very young, it was abandoned!"
"Yes, that one's fine it'll be easier to train!" Salina responded as took the creature and passing it to Rova, "how much?"
"200 Alivs!"
"Okay, here!" Salina said as she placed Some Alivs on the stall, "there now you have a guard dog to protect you and help wake you incase you have another nightmare!"
Rova glanced down at the puppy as it wagged it's fluffy tail, they both turned and walked away from the stall.
"What will you name him? he is yours!" Salina asked while walking beside Rova, "hmm, how about Atlas?"
Salina nodded to the name and the Nilirike barked happily wagging his tail, "then Atlas it is!"
They both pushed their way through the crowds back to the carriage Salina stopped to buy some snakes and supplies for the Nilirike.
When they finally reached the carriage they're hands were full of supplies and foods. Salina climbed in first and placed the stuff under the seats. Then she reached out to Rova to help her, after they were both in the carriage and all the supplies were put away Salina gives the coach the command to move forward.
Atlas jumped out of Rovas arms and onto the seat to stick his head out, wagging his tail happily.
Rova yawned sleepily and fell asleep in the carriage.
*********
Rova was shaken awake, she blinked open her eyes and looked around her, they were back at the castle, Salina was already gone General Misha stood over her her arms crossed.
Rova felt a weight on her lap she glanced down at atlas sleeping on her lap. Rova picked him up and stood up and stretched.
"Hi, genral Misha!"
"Hello, Rova! Her highness asked me to bring you to the training room so you can train your beast!" The genral said as she turned and jumped out of the carriage.
Rova followed close behind, "okay!" She said nodding her head as she followed her back into the castle.
