"But how?" The General asked. "No one has thought her to use magic before.""Let me explain it to you general." Erik said. "Imagine a bottle of champagne. The champagne is the magic power and the bottle is the body of the person with magic.""The body is like a container. Even if the person doesn’t know how to use magic, it is still contained inside. Emotion is the key that is used to harness magic. If since young the person is taught how to use magic, then it will flow smoothly out. Like opening a bottle of champagne. The cork is carefully opened and the contents can be poured carefully.""But if a person was not taught how to use magic or even doesn’t know they have magic, then it can be a dangerous. It can also lead to death." Erik said."Lead to death?" Erik was shocked. "But how can it be so dangerous.""Like I said, emotion is used as a key to harness magic. If a person that wasn’t educated, how to use magic suddenly had a surge of emotion then the magic inside his or her body c

It was night time and Erik had retired to his room. He thought about the happenings that happened earlier in the day.He never thought that Isabella will learn fast with the lessons he had thought her. If only she was given the proper education when she was young, he was sure that Isabella would be the most knowledgable of all the princesses. And not to mention, her sword skills are improving day by day. In fact she can really surpass his own sword skills if she becomes diligent in her practices.Erik walked outside of the veranda. He wasn’t sleepy yet because of the many thoughts that were swirling on his mind."Your highness." A voice came from the shadows and Kyler emerged. He kneeled down before Erik."What is it Kyler?" Erik asked."We have tracked the Spartan prince until the borders of Wales and Geneva." Kyler said."And?" Erik asked with authority."Please forgive me, your highness." Kyler said with remorse. "He and his acquaintances were able to elude us.Erik sighed. "Is it

Leon and Isabella exited at the back gate of the palace. Because they dressed in disguise, they passed the palace guards undetected.When they were out of the palace, they walked a little distance and they arrived at a place where a tall man with a ponytail was standing with a horse."Thank you." Erik smiled.The tall man gave the reigns of the black horse to Erik."Isn’t this your horse Shadow?" Isabella asked."Yes he is." Erik said. "You are very observant." He smiled at her.Isabella looked at the tall young man that was standing next to Shadow. He looked familiar but she couldn’t seem to remember where she met him."Good morning princess Isabella." The tall young man slightly bowed before her. She nodded back at him. "I am Kyler. I am Sir Erik’s retainer." He smiled at her."Have I met you before?" She blurted out of curiosity.Kyler seemed to be uneasy."You might have seen him once when he went to meet me." Erik smiled."Umm, maybe?" She said still confused.Erik mounted his

The town was in a festive mood.. There were many lanterns lit along the roads. Many people are at the river bay waiting for the fireworks to start."Wow, look at the crowd." Isabella said in amazement.All the people around them were common folks.There were men and woman, young and old, lovers, and families all together. Little children were bundled up with their parents, happy and eagerly waiting for the fireworks to start.These events made Isabella remember her childhood, when mother was still alive. There was also a festival like this one. Her Mother brought her to watch it and she was so happy. And when it ended she promised her to come again and watch it together. But that promise never came to reality. She died before the next festival was held."Is there something wrong?" Erik asked.They were standing at a good spot in the river bank, waiting for the fireworks to commence."Oh, it’s nothing." She wipe away a tear that formed in her eye. "I just remembered my mother taking me

Isabella had been waiting inside the stables as Erik had instructed. She held the dagger he had given her tightly. Her heart was thumping very fast.She was worried about Erik . He said they were being followed since they left the river bank.’Who would want to follow us? What are their intentions?’ She thought to herself.Then she remembered the accident earlier. When she was nearly ran over by a running carriage. She felt someone pushed her."Someone is after my life?" She said to herself.She was deep in her thoughts when she heard some sound."Who is there?" She quickly got her guard up. She unsheathe the dagger from its scarb and held it at arms length. She made a defensive stance."Young lady, I do not wish to harm you." A voice of a man was heard.Then the man emerged from the shadows. He was a young man with short dark brown hair and eyes. He was wearing black cloak."What do you want from me?" She asked with authority.The young man flinched. He looked into her eyes, as if se
