~A Letter Written in the Castle Five days to the Districts’ Plagues~ Dearest Felicia, I hope you’re happy with the current situation of the castle. Very sure you know who this is, and believe me when I say, I’m not asking for anything. Just want to know if you remember those pies mama made us, as kids? If she were here today, I doubt she’d be happy at the way things turned out. We couldn’t find the chest and… I got greedy. Forgetting my own sister, my own blood. And, I’m sorry. I regret my doings, Felicia. Not asking you to forgive me, but, please don’t let me die in the hands of Ava. Yours truly, Francesca. A Letter Replying Francesca’s Will and Intent Dearest Francesca, My twin, ex-friend and sister. I remember the pies mum made. I also noticed you failed to add the weather ( a sunny and warm day) That minute, I wished things remained that way. A small happ
All through when we rode back to the castle, I had the chest in my grip, holding it tightly.Even when the guards offered to help, I turned it down, numbly. With my mind still far off at the thought of Jasmine.Couldn’t believe she had been with me all this while. Just the thought of it made me upset…Hated the fact that I couldn’t do anything to help her. Nynaeve had to explain that what I requested for was virtually impossible. A re-incarnation could happen but certainly not the exchanging of lives or souls cause the Moon Goddess wasn’t the devil.“You almost died.” someone gritted out. I realized it was Alcander that had said those words. “Do you have any idea how dangerous that was? Leaving at the last moment?”“I-““That was because of the catastrophe attached to unbinding the spell.” Nynaeve cut me off, with a stern expression directed to Alcander.“The Queen doesn’t have to explain her reasons for staying that long, Alcander.”My hands clasped around the chest more tightly, wi
“Lady Ada!”Someone from the crowd yelled.“Lady Ada!!!” More choruses automatically joined. The entire palace, bowed at the unknown woman that has just entered.Whatever it was, they seemed to have a great deal of respect for this woman.Her dress was graceful, a white linen piece which accentuated her body, at each step. I studied every movement of hers towards me, with an inward cringe.P-potential Queen? Just what did she do to earn that title?“Who are you?” I said, with my eyes bolted in surprise at Cassandra’s description of her.Why did her father bear the same name as mine?“Hello, sister.” she smirked, whispering in my ear. “I have a lot to say to you, however, I must put an end to this like father instructed.”At her words, I could feel my blood stir in anger.“Look we’re so close to removing the main threat, so I advise you-““Just listen.” she cut my words, whispering in return. “Why would I come all this way from the district I was assigned to? To take your place as Qu
There was a time I thought, my mission was to become Queen. Fight to survive as a pawn, and if I did, my next work was my subjects. With Caspian by my side, as we combat it all.But it seemed fate had other plans. I mean, here am I, trying to settle and create a home in the castle.Yet…up till now…it becomes so difficult. Every step becomes impossible, each second…each minute.“Tell us, Jaskier. Tell us how the people of Demon Scavengers’ ordered your father, to kill one of the twins, on the day of the prophecy.” Ada let out, with her head held up high, with an essence of power.“Of how I was pitied in the woods, thus, he hid me instead of ripping my heart out.” she added.“Lady Ada, I’m afraid this is not the right time for her to know the tru- ““I assure you it is.” she breathed out, tucking a strand of her dark hair, behind her ears. “Cause at this point, our dear Ava might be blinded by her love with the beast. She’s being consumed by it, while we watch.”At Ada’s words, my hear
It was just like I was in a foreign land.Bloodsheds.Angst.Troop of horses running.The air smelled of death. Death in the simplest form, and when I looked around, it didn’t seem like anyone could see me.“W-what’s happening?”My eye brows cringed at the confusion scattered everywhere, with my hands shakily reaching out for my pup. My wolf hearing, heightened suddenly. A zooming arrow flew towards me and my paws extended, throwing it the other way, in reflex.Grasping my belly, growling in a protective stance. It was then I realized I had to go away from this chaos.“AVAAA…”My eyes bolted, looking towards where the voice was coming from. It was just behind me. A figure, clothed in the purest of all clothing. White and immaculate to the core, with a shimmer like substance all over it.I wondered who she was. From her back view, it was much obvious she was a woman. One with a white and long hair, which was being embraced by the wind.“Who are you?” I asked, yet, got no reply. I sighe
“I met the Goddess,” I started off, brokenly, still sitted on the Royal chamber’s bed with him. “She told me all sort of unexplainable things, like how my blood is an original Scavenger’s.” No more secrets…he had said. Had to tell him the entire scene from my nightmare, or I won’t be at rest. “Ada was right,” I carried on, saying. “She talked about the same destiny…” “Ava.” Caspian whispered, cutting my words and taking my hands in his to calm me down. “She wants an eradication. She quests to put an end to all creatures she created. And I-I, tried giving her reasons not to. That only made her mark me as a rebel.” “She does?” he asked. “Thought we had an agreement. She gave me her requirements, not to be a weak King, and I followed everything. So why?” “Don’t know,” I sighed, before continuing. “I just hate that we’re in the middle of this…I mean, we have a pup to protect. What if it all goes wrong, Cas?” I added, in a worried tone. “It won’t.” He seethed, in a protective tone
“The Pawn…Knight. The Rook, Bishop.The Queen and King. These were the things that kept us in order. They are still there, yet, everything seems to be falling apart.” – Ava, (the Queen)…“How long will he be unconscious for?”“A few days, maybe. Depends on how fast his recovering abilities is.” The pack Doctor replied.My hands moved to Caspian’s, with my brows knotting worriedly.“Cassandra, get a room close to this chamber for the pack Doctor. He would be staying here till the King recovers.” I ordered sadly.“As you wish, milady.”She went out with him, closing the door behind us, and leaving us completely to ourselves. The room became silent, afterwards. Caspian’s pale face was directed to me, making tears stung under my eye lid.“When are you going to wake up, Caspian?”I swallowed, saying.“I miss you, already.”“Not being with me, hurts, you know. It makes me wonder how things would have turned out if I listened to you from the start.” I murmured miserably.My hands tightenin
King Caspian’s POVOunces of snow swept from my hair, which flew loosely in the wind. My boots, dug into the floor searching.I wondered how I got here. There were trees covered in snow. With a gust of wind whistling softly. “Huh?”I let out, reflexly at what was ahead me.It was Mum.Her face was brighter than usual. Lady Archer was dressed richly, in a burnt orange fine robe. In her head was her usual crown, which sat gorgeously on her crimson hair.“C-caspian!”She cried out, rushing to hug me.I connected them to her silver-grey ones, rubbing the back of my head as to where I was.“Mum.”I seethed. I was about to make my way to her, when someone stepped out of her back.“W-who are you?” My voice broke, knowing this could be my greatest fear.“Big brother.”She let out.My beast rumbled at her words that minute. Tell her we’re sorry. We didn’t mean to hurt her.I will. I will let her know.I carried on, making my way to the both of them, when mum’s eyes widened suddenly.“Stop, Ca
