Kristana and I walked back in after checking on dinner and Bryden, and Derrik was talking to the now-awake Galen getting him all caught up on what is happening. Rayna was still out, but Galen was sitting up and listening. Kristana ran over and hugged her son.“I am fine mom.” He was saying as she wiped a tear of joy from her eyes.“I know, but we came close to losing you both.” She said sitting on the edge of the bed and taking his hand.I heard Rayna moan and walked over to her. “Rayna?” I touched her arm, and so did Galen.“Rayna, hun? Wake up, love.” Galen added as she began to open her eyes. She looked up at me. “Mom?” I smiled and sat on the edge of the bed next to her.“Yes, baby it is me.”Then she looked over at Galen, and he was smiling. She tried to sit up, and Galen and I helped her to sit up. “What happened?”I looked over to Galen, and he looked at me, I nodded that he could tell her since he has been brought up to speed on things.He looked at Rayna and began, “Remember
It took us over an hour to walk the couple miles with the children and elderly and wagons along with the storm slowing us down, but we finally made it, and the people began to unload the carts into the cave as the women and children with lanterns went in ahead. When everyone and animals were safely inside Bryden, and his tayren was waiting for me inside. I slowly descended towards the cave and flew inside dropping the shield behind me. Bryden rushed over and hugged me.“This was an excellent idea. The people are safe now.”“Only there are many villages? What about those?” I asked him.“We will have to take one situation at a time.”“From what direction did the storm come in from?” A thought was coming to me.“From over the Avalonian sea north of here.” He looked as if he too were thinking the same thing.I nodded. “The machine needed the sea to create the moisture to form the clouds. My theory is since it came from that direction the machine would have to be on Valaisha and since it c
We finally were able to make out the outline of the palace and got to the stables and ran our tayrens inside the stone building to protect them. Before heading out, I surrounded us with my shield so we could run up the steps and into the Palace. “Rayna? Galen?” Bryden shouted as the building shook from the thunder.“Do you think they may have come up with the same idea we did and ushered everyone into the dungeon?” Just then a huge thunderclap caught me off balance, and I landed against Bryden, and his arms went protectively around me keeping me from falling. “That was bigger than any we had on Valaisha. The others must have been warned and created a worse storm.” I said against Bryden. Just then a lightning bolt came flashing past us and barely missed us, again the thunder sounded, and the ceiling began to crumble and fall on top of us. I quickly brought my hands up and shielded us.“We need to get out of here. It is not safe.” Bryden said as we ran out of the room and saw more damag
A few hours later we were all gathered in the living room discussing our next move when a male servant came in announcing visitors.“Your Majesties, Two gentlemen wish to speak with you. They are not from around here, and one says he is of royal blood.”Bryden nodded and answered, “Show them in.”Two men walked in, one a little shorter than the other. Their appearance was ashen as I have never seen anyone that pale. They both had black hair and red eyes. The tall man reached out towards Bryden and Bryden took the man's hand as the man bowed, “Your Majesty, I am King Xipher of Staxon, and this is my right-hand man, Kito.”My mouth flew open, and I looked over at my mom and Bryden as they too looked surprised. “Staxon, you say?” Bryden asked as he looked over at my mother. “We didn’t know that world was inhabited.”“Of course, you didn’t. We pretty much keep to ourselves.”Bryden studied the men as he asked, “What brings you to Valaisha? And why now?”“My world has been observing the di
“Now Young Majesty, focus on your inner being. The light source and where it originates from.” Xipher was saying while walking around me as I sat cross-legged in the middle of the floor. I had my eyes closed and was focused on his voice. “Do you see it?” I took a deep breath and tried to see what he wanted me to see. “I am sorry, I don’t see anything.” “Try harder; you must see it for it to work. It is waiting deep inside you wanting to be born.” Wow, he had a way with words. It almost sounds like I am to give birth or something. It almost made me laugh until I took a deep breath, as I tried harder to see what I was to see, a bright flash nearly blinded me then was gone. “Yes, you were almost there. I felt it for a split second.” “Was that flash it?” I said opening my eyes. “Keep your eyes closed. You are nearly there.” He said as he stopped in front of me. I closed my eyes again and continued to focus. I took a deep cleansing breath and relaxed. Suddenly there was the flash aga
We were sitting around having dinner when I heard Galen. ‘Rayna, they did it. I know where we are. The South East Region of Amadoria.’“Amadoria!” I exclaimed out loud and looked around the table as everyone looked up at me. “I am sorry, Galen just told me they are on Amadoria. South East region."“Does he know the exact location?” Xipher asked taking a bite of his unusual dish.‘Galen, Xipher needs to know the exact location.’‘It is at the compound the group built for their headquarters. They call it “Hatchica.” It means peace on this world.’I looked at Xipher, “They are at the main headquarter in the compound, they call Hatchica. It means..”“Peace.” Xipher finished for me.I nodded, and he continued, “Well, now I will begin planning a surprise attack on the compound and free the young King and his parents.” He signaled at his right-hand man called Kito, and he stood and bowed towards Xipher then left out of the room. Xipher looked over at me. “You can inform him to sit tight.” He
(Preface) With the help of our new friends from Staxon, a plan to rescue Galen and his parents from Amadoria has been formed, using me as their secret weapon. I still cannot believe who is at the center of all these terrorist attacks on our worlds. Our only question is why? And how is Lucas whom we destroyed involved? We are just fortunate to have our new friend, and his ability to train me and my newfound power. My parents have been overseeing the repairs on the three worlds, as well as training themselves for a much bigger battle that we know is imminent. King Xipher is confident we will win this storm as he calls it. I sure hope he is right. I look forward to it all being over once and for all. God willing! ~Rayana Karver Rowen, Queen of Kaihu Chapter One- Dregon “Are you Sure?” My dad asked in complete surprise. My mother walked over to me placing her hands on my shoulders, “Honey, we cannot go around accusing unless we have proof. Joanita is my friend and has helped us thr
On the day of the planned rescue, I woke feeling nervous. How I pray, nothing goes wrong. I showered and dressed and went downstairs to breakfast. Most everyone was already up and eating except my mother.“Where’s mom?” I asked as Amiya set a plate down in front of me.“She is on a call with Joanita.” My dad said as he took a bite of his breakfast.“You don’t think she suspects anything?” I asked frowning and setting my cup down after taking a sip of my coffee.“No, it didn’t seem that way, and your mother is playing it cool.”Xipher asked, “Are you ready for tonight?” I looked up at him, and I could tell he sensed my nervousness. “We will do another practice training if it will help ease your mind.”I nodded, “I would feel better about it.”“Feel better about what?” My mother asked entering the room and sitting down.Xipher smiled, “The young one is feeling nervous about tonight.” He answered my mother.She looked over at me, “It won't interfere with the plan will it?” She looked awa
Nerin and I looked at each other and we both shared the same expression. “We need to get to the men. But to our bodies first.”I nodded and teleported us back to our bodies. We both opened our eyes and looked at each other. “I don’t feel weak like the last time,” I spoke as we both stood up.“That is because you were drawing power over and beyond your own. You tapped into mine. Alone you were so strong your body couldn’t take it now that it is your power alone without mine, you were able to handle it now. That is why I had to be resurrected so we could each combine our power to win this. All this was our destiny. Prophesy fulfilled. Now let’s get to our men.”I smiled and nodded and took her hands. We got to the medic outpost set up for the injured and found Galen and Xipher on cots next to each other. Bryden was there with his arm in a sling and a few bruises on his face including one black eye. He stood up from the chair he was sitting on when we entered.He looked at Nerin, “Nerin?
Another loud explosion sounded further down from me and I watched as this strong laser-type cannon take out a side of a mountain. My jaw dropped at seeing the power of this cannon. It was now or never because our own people and friends are no match for the laser cannons. I closed my eyes and summoned Rayna.After Nerin explained to me what danger is now about to happen. I open my eyes and looked around and gasped. Tears began to form in my eyes. My beautiful home. It was then several loud explosions sounded around me. These must be the laser cannons. One by one severe damage was being caused by them along with many lives being taken. My heart began to break and the thought.Just then another explosion went off and I noticed Galen fighting near Xipher on his tayren and the laser from the cannon came so close to Galen he fell off his tayren and I screamed his name.Now I was beginning to feel angry. I was about to go further in my light form when the prophet appeared in front of me.“Li
The plan is for our forces from Cainya and Kaihu, to try and drive the enemy to Valaisha where the big battle will take place. We are hoping that we could drive them even further on Valaisha towards the portal to Amadoria in hopes to get my aunt Joanita to join. After all, she has no idea that we are still onto her and she continues to offer her assistance. At least that is the only plan we came up with that possibly could work.Xipher and I and my mom will stay and command the warriors here on Valaisha. Bryden will head to Kaihu and command those warriors with Galen. Galen’s parents will command the warriors on Cainya. I will give Rayna control long enough to teleport to each world with the signal that we will be all in place to execute the plan.So far Staxon seems to be clear of any enemy forces, but that doesn’t mean it would stay that way. So Xipher made sure the warriors there stay and patrol the portal to Amadoria there in case. If they did get through the warriors are to do th
Rayana allowed me back in control and Xipher and my mom planned to meet with Deriya in the morning and set up the meeting place for her warriors to meet us along with the ones from the other worlds.As we climbed up onto the dregons, we were set to leave and group at the meeting spot. As we took to the air, I looked down and saw thousands upon thousands of warriors. All were ready and turned in the direction of the portal we were heading towards.Deriya was sitting upon a huge eagle that is her own personal bodyguard warrior named, Skyior. He is so large in his eagle form she is able to ride upon his back.So, here we are all heading towards the portal with the mighty warriors of Kerron to meet up with the other warriors from Nympha and Aiden on Staxon. We just hope we are in time to save Valaisha and the other two worlds. We have to be on time. Otherwise, the prophecy of Rayna and of my resurrection would have been wrong and I refuse to believe that it is.As we all go through the po
Later we were on our Dregons again only this time with one last mission to fulfill. Reaching out to the lioness Queen, Deriya of the animal world Kerron.As we passed through the portal I noticed the thick humid air and insects as they buzzed around us in the largest of many jungles of Kerron. Our Dregons slowed down due to the thick brush and huge trees. I had complete trust in the dregons as skillful flyers and knew we were safe upon their backs.I looked over at mom and noticed her surveying the world around her with awe. “Is this your first time to Kerron?” I asked being careful enough to not swallow any insects.Mom brushed a few away before she spoke, “It’s my first time visiting any of these worlds. I had not been able to do many diplomatic visits to other worlds as yet.”I nodded and smiled at her then focused on following Xipher. He knew where the jungle palace is located. The closer we were getting to the palace the more I began to notice shadows moving through the branches
After the finished tour with mom and Rayna, Rayna stepped back and let me back in control. The next morning we now stood on the small island along with Aanomi and a few guards. It’s been arranged that the army would meet us back on Valaisha in one week's time.Aanomi hugged us before saying, “I will expect to one day see all of you with Nerin in her own body soon. And we will have a grand celebration waiting for you.”“We will and is honored.” I took her hands as I said, “Thank you, Aanomi for trusting us.”She leaned over and kissed my cheek. “I always trusted you.” She spoke in my ear before backing away and slipping back into the water as her dress became a part of her, as her golden tail and with her guards, disappeared beneath the waves.I sighed, “Well that went well.”“I knew they would help us,” Xipher said as he helped me mount my dregon.I nodded as he then walked over to help my mother mount her dregon. As large as dregons were it was difficult for us women to mount unassis
I could tell my mother was in awe at what she was seeing. After about an hour we finally saw it. Just over the ridge and down in a canyon was a magnificent kingdom it glowed in wonder, and I heard my mother beside me gasp at the sight. It was huge, and we saw many merfolk swimming about and even waving as we passed.It was a wondrous sight to behold. I have been here many times with Xipher in the past yet each time it still takes my breath away. I could only imagine what my mother was thinking. The carriage began to decent and headed towards a clear tube. Right before we entered the seahorses stopped and turned us around. A merman came over and unhooked the creatures from the carriage, and two more mermen came and began to push the carriage back into the clear tube.Once inside the mermen backed out and the opening closed. Then we watched as water began to reside from the tube and soon the tube was free of water. Alyczander was there as the door opened to the carriage and we entered t
As Rayna and I finished our conversation, I stood and walked to the railing looking out at the distant smoke and sounds. ‘Yes, this has to end soon.’ I thought to myself. Taking a deep breath, I walked back into the Palace, and everyone stopped talking as I came through the door.I smiled, “She understands.” I said as I walked over and sat on a chair near the fireplace. Suddenly we heard footsteps hastening our direction, and Galen appeared through the open doorway. Upon seeing me, he rushed over and grabbed me before I could say something then kissed me with passion.When he released me, he stood back as he realized I was not responding and stared at me. “You are not Rayna.” He stated.I shook my head, and Xipher walked over and stood behind Galen. The poor man put his head in one hand, “Oh boy this is confusing.” Then he looked down at me, “I am sorry Nerin. I was under the impression it would be Rayna back now.”“No, you kissed my wife,” Xipher said from behind, and Galen looked ar
The next morning, while at breakfast, a messenger came in with a message for Mom and Bryden. As Bryden read it the color drained from his face. “Hun, what is it?” Mom asked him.He handed the message to my mom, and it was her turn to pale, “Valaisha is under attack. They have the military out fighting but..”“But what, mom?”She looked up at me, “There are too many of them.”I saw tears of concern brimming in her eyes. I got up and went over to hug her.“I can offer my assistance,” Xipher said as he began to signal for Kito.“Sir?” Kito said as he walked over to Xipher.“Rally the men and have the Dregons ready. Valaisha needs our assistance. It seems Amadoria not only attacked here but is attacking there as well. We will be leaving and leading the troops.”Kito bowed, “Yes sir at once.”Xipher looked back at everyone at the table, “We should be ready to leave in an hour.”“Xipher, thank you.” Bryden began to say more when Xipher interrupted him.“We are family now. It is what family d
