I knew your mother...
Everything in her life now seemed to be moving so fast and out of her control. She felt like she had no way of stopping it.
"Thank you," She said as she dabbed the corner of her eyes.
"It's quite alright."
He wrapped his frail arm around her shoulder and guided her further into the room. It was dark and musty. The room smelled of dust and dank.
"Inluminatio !" He yelled into the darkness.
The room took on a warm glow as the candelabra lined along the walls came to life with fire. Flossina was able to view her gilded cage thoroughly for the first time. It was a large room with no bed in sight. There was a marble fountain that sat in the center of the room. There was old furniture and pillows and blankets.

They heard the heavy door open. It was the man she thought was a brute from earlier, the General. This time, he brought three soldiers with him. One was holding a silver tray with two trenchers of food on it. She wasn't hungry. The man still looked at her the same way, with that look that made her insides crawl. She instinctively took a step back as the soldier sat it down on the only table in the room. Their big sizes seemed to make it feel like they filled up the room."Princess, I have brought you supper." He walked towards her with his hands clasped behind his back. He was close to her now.She wouldn't dare give him the satisfaction of looking at him.He grabbed her chin gruffly."You will look at me when I
The Jewel Of Humanity Dawn
With a great creaking moan the tower door opened once more and the holy man was dragged inside by a lone guard dressed in head to toe armor. She couldn't see his face, and at this point she really didn't care. She was just happy it wasn't General Torunn. She felt like he wouldn't stop until he saw her in a great deal of pain. He seemed to enjoy that. He slammed the door shut behind him. She watched the soldiers every movement as he unlocked the shackles of the holy elder who now lay unconcious. Then he walked in her direction. She felt her heart lurch."Please, stop! I command you! Don't come any closer !"His stride increased in speed and when he was a few feet away from her he grabbed her gently by her arm and removed his helmet. She gasped when she saw it was him. It was Marlon. Without thinKing, she flung herse

He gently touched her cheek with his hand."I promise, I will be back for you."She knew he spoke the truth to her, and even though they stood in the middle of the musty, dirty, tower Flossina felt safe in his arms.He leaned down and kissed her lightly on the lips.She accepted the show of affection and reveled in the warm sensation worKing its way through her body because of it."I must leave. They believe me to be one of them. I can't be gone too long."He lingered for a few seconds more and she watched as he moved across and then out of the room. Now that he was gone she noticed the holy man sitting Indian style on a large pillow. He seemed unencumbered by what had

"Years ago, I performed a ritual with you and your mother. Binding you to something very valuable. Your mother was a wonderful woman. Full of life and love for her people. She wants you to take her place. Save the Kingdom from this General and the addle-minded King. You have it inside of you. You are quite powerful."She knelt down beside him and surveyed the bleeding gash on his forehead. She ripped the front of her loin skirt and gently wrapped it around his head to help stop the bleeding."Inside of me?""Yes, the jewel of humanity.""That isn't possible. My mother would have told me about that.""Would she? You were an infant. The Kingdom was on a shaky road to recovery, after a land ravished by war. She had l
The Jewel Of Humanity Memories
She knew Marlon would come for her and her heart felt a little at peace at the thought of the kind stranger who was helping her now. Khepri's plan worked. She smiled at the workings of the demi-goddess... **********Although Princess Flossina was anxious for Marlon's return, she still listened intently as the spiritual elder told her stories of both her parents in the days of their youth. She was astounded at how well she was able to see her real father through the descriptive stories he was telling her. The sound of his baritone voice seemed to dull the pain and the feeling of all-encompassing sadness that seemed to veil her life at present.He was in the middle of telling her how her father, the late King, had w
The Jewel Of Humanity Captive
She leaned forward, resting her elbows on the tops of her knees. The full moon illuminated the tower, and she said a silent prayer of protection for Marlon. She heard a loud thud and the tower door opened once again. She quickly stood up, dusting herself off as she walked over to the door. She hadn't expected Marlon to use this entrance again. She didn't care. She was happy she would be leaving this dreadful place. The door opened further and her heart was once again deflated. It was not Marlon. It was General Torunn. She quickly backed away. His eyes looked like cold glass as he stared at her. Two more guards materialised behind him in the poorly lit entranceway. He walked into the room and immediately started barKing orders."Shut the door and leave me! The Princess and I have much to discuss."
The Jewel Of Humanity Nightmare ...
"Does my touch not please you, Princess? Are my hands too calloused for your liking? I apologize. I'm not of noble blood. I'm just a poor potato farmers son. We couldn't all be born Royal now could we."Her silence infuriated him.He slapped her hard and then slammed his mouth against hers so hard she felt his teeth sink into her flesh. She started to taste her own blood. She pushed him hard enough to break the kiss and slap him hard across his face. He backhanded her again and she fell hard onto the marble floor. Before she could react, he was on top of her."You bitch!"He grabbed her by the shoulders and began to shake her.Her head was spinning when he finally stopped his tirade, and once more his hands were roving all ov
The Jewel Of Humanity Ascent From Ruin
In all the confusion Flossina seized the opportunity and kneed him in his bare groin with all of her might. He let out a blood-curdling howl of pain and doubled over, all the while holding his crotch. All the fear, all the anger, and all of the hatred she felt for this man bubbled up within her and she gave him one final kick in his face. It knocked him out cold. She looked around and ran over to where she had left the holy man to rest."Our ride has arrived! We are safe," she informed him while she gently shook him.He was hunched over with the hood of his cloak covering his head. She knelt and touched his shoulder. His head lifelessly rolled around on his shoulders and she knew he was dead. She gently laid his body down on the ground."I'm sorry. I'm so sorry." She whispered and placed a kiss on his forehead as a
