Legacy: The Forgotten World

Trisha knew that she was going to die that day. She just didn’t know that it would be her husband, her king who would be the one to do it.  “Yama.” Trisha said with tears in her eyes as she was unable to move on her husband sword which was sticking out of her stomach.  “You might be my Alal and an almost goddess but it doesn’t change the fact that you are still my subject.” Trisha husband and the current King growled out as he twisted the sword in her stomach. “It was the right thing to do.” Trisha said as blood bubbled out of her mouth.  “Right or wrong, it doesn’t change the fact that you are trying to bury Magic. Yes it corrupts but it is beautiful too.” The king yelled in the face of his queen, his eyes red but not from tears but from too much magic.  When it is too much in some one and the person keeps taking more than he can in his capacity, it corrupts the person and rules him from the inside out.  “It i

“If you know what is good for you, you better not let that hand drop.” I said calmly even though I was anything but calm.  No! I cannot be tied to a man who will physically abuse me, I would rather die than be my mother. My mind screamed out but none of this showed on my face. What showed was the calm fury I was holding to with all my might. I cannot return to the scared little girl I was, who was afraid of my father return whenever he would travel.  Arius breathed out as his hand hanged in the air for a while before he dropped it by his side and not towards my direction as he had earlier intended.  “Why on earth will you try and insult the council? Do you have a death wish? They are the most feared group in this empire. Not even the warriors. They can make and unmake. They can break you with a thought and not lose sleep about it. You must have a death wish. There is no other explanation for your actions.”  Arius gripped his hair in hi

Noble women no matter what empire they belong to are nothing but thorns at the side of an outsider. I had watched what Dar women did to Themis who was not a complete outsider and heard stories too, I even joined in the disciplining of some of the errant women who were below Themis in status and still thought that they could circulate rumors to tarnish her image.  Now if that was the same people I had to deal with here, I would not have minded. I would have breakfast with them while counting each snide comments and when we are done with our breakfast, I would have them whipped for each foul word that was said to me or about me.  But I couldn’t do that to princesses, not when their brother who happened to be my husband will have my head if I hurt them.  I got to the same room as yesterday, the one where the meal was held while silently cursing the fact that I couldn’t have meals with my escorts from Dar.  It isn’t done, I was told by

AriusGwenn was crazy, totally and completely crazy! When Faye distracted me from my sparring session with my brother, Kastav which Gwenn accused of wanting to kill me, I actually thought that maybe Gwenn was wrong about who was going to kill me, it was not going to be Kastav but rather Faye. Well that was my thought until she started to talk about my wife who have a death wish. On getting there, the brat with no self-preservation in her actually turned to greet me with a smile on her face. “Gwenn I know that you are angry but this is a little bit out of hand, don’t you think?” I approached her and the council members who were strangely not doing anything to harm Gwenn, I had been on the receiving side of their wrath once, although it was a long time ago, I still remember the hopeless feeling that arose from that experience and how my father waged a war on the council. Kastav mother, after being punished was sent away fr

GwennI thought that I was ready for anything, I thought that I was ready to take whatever the oath was but I was ill prepared. “My queen, please wrap yourself up in this.” The Mareikura which was assigned to me said as she presented me with a thin like shawl. This Mareikura was respectful, I learnt that the trait of Faye was only a characteristics of her as a person, not her friends or the position she held which was a good thing because if there was more than one of Faye in existence at the castle… well when I return, let’s just say that a lot of maidens would have either lost their jobs or their lives. Depending on how annoying they were to me at first glance. “Okay.” I replied in a tiny voice as I took the shawl and wrapped it around me, not like it helped to hid anything since the whole of me was on display. The Mareikura, held me by hand into another chamber and this ch
