When Luke heard this question, he turned to her and, taking a deep breath, said, "For the future, my love."
Although this answer did not mean much to Zoey, the young woman shrugged her shoulders.
"The future?" Zoey asked.
Luke then moved to the pavilion, next to Zoey, and took out some palace sweets that his mother had sent from the palace.
"I am a Hiera, Zoey. Even if my princely title is taken away and I am officially exiled, no one can take my surname from me," Luke said seriously.
"Across the lake and three hundred kilometres beyond. That area is a void," he added to his own words.
At that moment, Zoey understood what Luke was talking about and said, "The Tholien Mountains? You can't be serious, it's too dangerous."
"Hi-e-ra. I am a Hiera. My blood is renowned for commanding dragons and even phoenixes. If they won't kneel before me, there's no reason for them to be in my territory," Luke replied.
