The Craftsman 76 Marriage?

Entering the throne room, Daedalus walked forward but was quickly stopped by what he saw. Daedalus with his mouth agape said "Master!?"

The emporer of the grand alchemist empire was Daedalus' master Gram. Gram began laughing happily at the reaction and said "I am sorry I couldn't get in contact with you for the past years, I have been busy leading my empire!"

Andromeda was also shocked but mainly confused and asked "Master? Father what is happening?"

Gram looked over and smiled, standing up he walked over and gave Andromeda a great big bear hug while saying "Andromeda, where were you? I missed you so much!"

Andromeda seemed to melt and said softly "I told you I was going out to gain experience."

Daedalus coughed a few times until they finally stopped and said "So why did you call for us, master?"

Gram huffed but quickly regained his composure and said "I called you both here to make an announcement! Daedalus I would like you to marry my daughter!"

The entire room seemed to pause for a moment. Then Andromeda started screaming profanities while strangling her father. Daedalus became fl.u.s.tered and started saying "I know she's beautiful but I am not sure I am ready to marry yet."

Daedalus' words only further enraged the mad women and she turned to look at him. Daedalus stopped speaking as he had felt a sense of impending doom. Andromeda was now slowly walking towards Daedalus while her eye twitched uncontrollably.

As she reached Daedalus she said "What did you say!?"

Daedalus gulped nervously and said "Umm I think I need to go. You know to prepare for the first day of college!"

Andromeda simply smiled and said "Exactly how about you go now. I don't think father would mind you staying in the castle."

Daedalus simply nodded and a servant grabbed him before leading him to a guest room.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

The next day Daedalus trued to sneak out without Andromeda noticing however she had been quickly notified by one of the guards. Before he managed to escape he had been captured by a guard captain and questioned. After hearing his explanation the guard captain nodded and apologized while telling him how the princess was known very well for her ways.

A short time later Andromeda entered and said "So, trying to escape I see!"

Daedalus immediately denied this saying "No I was going to wait at the front of the castle for you and escort you to the college!"

Andromeda smiled mysteriously and said "Okay, let's go."

After a short walk they had arrived in front of the college. Walking inside Daedalus and Andromeda where told that they had to chose their cla.s.ses for the year.

Daedalus chose to enter the alchemy and science cla.s.ses for the year. While Andromeda chose surprisingly, the exact same cla.s.ses as him.

Daedalus was of course worried by this as he had been told that all courses only had one teacher each. Her choosing the exact same courses was also very suspicious to him as to his knowledge she was one of the best at alchemy ever.
