Golden Gates 3

Prince got up and followed the King's room, where he kept miraculous mirror - it was possible to see everything one wants, large or small, close or at distance. The king waved his hand, a mirror lit up - and show has started...

When the mirror was extinguished, the Prince fell on his knees before his father and reverently kissed his hand.

 - Oh, my dear, how beautiful it was!

The king showed him the amazing story of his future life in an unfamiliar world - just like mom tells you stories and even better way, because Prince not only could see, but seemed to have gone through all the adventures. Sometimes father showed him such wonderful stories and each time it was totally new fairy tale.

 - But where is she? Where do I find her?

 - That I will not tell you. You're going to wander and one day...
 
 - When? How long will I wander?

 - That I do not tell you as well. You should believe. Everything will depend on you, on the strength of your love and faith. Till then ... you’ll forget everything.

 - Forget everything!?

 - Yes, dear, for some time. This is the condition of embodiment. But I give you my gift - my magical parachute. It will be always behind your back like invisible wings. No matter how far you may have gone, no matter how long wandered and no matter how deeply immersed, you can never finally fall and get lost in the maze of created countless worlds. My strength will keep you, you'll come back again. Go.

Saying goodbye to the Father, the Prince felt that his heart is broken and trembling with joy at the same time.
 
The father looked after him.
 
- Go, my son, go ... kids, kids ... Going away or comming back - you're fulfilling my will. You leave as proud and return humble, leaving an empty and inept, and come back filled and bring me a gift of new perfection. You left defeated, and come back victorious. And on this way you get everything you want. On your way toward the goal I will fulfill your every desire ... Go.

The Prince turned to take a last look at his father but the familiar world around him had vanished. The walls of his palace shook, the floor rumbled, and a huge, rocket-like ship flew off the ground and sped away into the unknown.

That was how the Prince became a cosmic wanderer.
