I entered the hall for dinning and saw Arius relax only for Adela to run in after me and hissed at the passageway.
“Will you shut it? If there is anybody that should be here, it is you. You should be outside.” Sorens snaps as Adela, who stood facing him while flicking her tail. Arius relaxed state turned agitated but I dint pay him any mind, I already told him, if he didn’t want Adela near his future child, he should remove Faye from my path and she was at the table.
“You two bicker too much.” I said as I used my hand to run Adela as I passed her to my seat while she waited for Sorens. A closeness I appreciated although it was not easy at the original stage.
They might have a game of cat and mouse going on but they were extremely close.“Is the cat going to eat with us?” Catia asked alarmed.
“Mngwa.” I corrected and she paled even more. “Adela likes it when she is addressed properly and besides nobody should

Kastav PovThe time was right, there is discord between the king and the queen. Now was the best time for me to act. To bring myself closer to the throne. My blood was better than his, Yet he remained my father’s favorite, I had the best marks in everything we did.I was better than him and yet just because of the love for his mother, he became king while I was stuck as a prince. We were born the same day but I was cursed not to reach the king’s post. I was meant to only see it.Even curses can be changed.I formed out of the shadows of my father’s room as I watched while he struggled to breathe. Give it a few more weeks and he would be no more. That was the position, I place him in. To be slowly wasting away while not be able to do anything and knowing that there was no salvation coming, just death.Well death was here, in form of his younger heir to the throne. I needed to remove this Yama and cause havoc between my brother

GwennI had not left Arius side since the news of his father’s death reached him. They don’t take long in hold their funerals and when the death is brutal or a forbidden type which was the killing of someone defenselessly, which the king certainly was, it takes a new dimension in quickness. Within Twelve hours, the pyre was set and the rites were read. The mood was somber and I took my place among other commanders of the army, I learnt that the commanders were always around the palace unless being sent on missions for the king.I was standing there, paying my respects to the king but Arius came and yanked me to his side which was the very front of the small crowd gathered to honor his father and pay their last respects before saying goodbye to the King before he starts his journey to the afterlife.“Your place is with me, my queen. You are not just a commander or a foreigner, you are now the queen, start acting like it.” He growls at me and because

“What are you saying Silana?” I asked her as my heart thumped in my chest. There was no way in which she could be right, snow doesn’t fall in Northshore but I do know that following the time frame and all, Snow would have just melted and the baby would still be tiny, why would they start travelling now? Yes I knew that I was important to them as I am their family just like they were mine but I still didn’t see it as enough reason for them to take the risk which they would take if they were here.“Themis, the lady with the completely white hair and old eyes, eyes that look like they can peer right into your heart and Orel. The man who is cradling a small Miniature version of him, at least the black hair matched, with the fiercest face and an angry scowl on his face unless when he looks at the child or his white lady. Those two people. You know them right?” Silana asked and I nodded, speechless. “They are in the hallway, on their way to the throne room, th

Gwenn“What are you going on about?” I asked Themis even though I had an idea of what she was referring to. I already suspected that me being the golden queen was going to be nerve wrecking but I never expect the whole world to be in danger.Themis shook her head with a sad smile. “It is not yet time for you to know, you will know when the time is right.” She answered.“I still cannot believe that Gwenn didn’t miss me.” Orel murmured as I couldn’t help but smile.And as usual, I ran to Orel and hugged him with my legs wrapped around his waist. That was my typical greeting for him and Eli… the then Elison right from when we were young.“I miss you, brother.” I said as I held on to Orel while tears ran down my face, I was tired of being alone and now, I was glad that I was not alone. That I was my family even if it will be a short time before they had to go back home.“I miss you too, Gwenn.” He replied as he kissed my hair.&

Dinner that evening was something else but at least Catia, Vala and Vestia had enough preservation spirit in them to keep their mouth shut for the first part. I had almost thought that Arius warned them, including consequences of what their words and actions might mean for them but then again, when Sorens entered the room and smiled at me before sitting, it proved too much for them.“How long are we going to continue enduring the presence of this person at our table?” Vala started wrinkling her nose to show her distaste for the situation.“Vala, please Father was just laid to rest, don’t start up with this.” Severa begged, I honestly don’t know how she and Silana managed to share the same father with the rest of their siblings, they were the only good ones out of the whole lot.“Exactly, I just lost my father, I am grieving. There should not be something that will stress me out or make me mad right now. Queen Gwenn…” She started.“The next w

Faye PovI was losing Arius, it became clearer when Gwenn came out of Arius room when I delivered the news of his father demise. I was not expecting to see Gwenn but I felt betrayed, since when did I exchange roles with Gwenn and without all the benefits too. She is the one who is supposed to be hated by Arius, I am the one who should be leaving Arius room with a smile. I should be the one who gets to spend a night.If Gwenn has the queen position and Arius heart, I will be left with nothing expect my future child to hold on to this life and it isn’t enough. Sometimes a child cannot secure your place. Prince Kastav mother proved that. The only thing that can secure your comfort is the feelings which Yama has for you and your children. And right now. Arius hates me and the thought of our child.A knock sounded in my door and I hurried to open it, people will rarely now visit Arius quarters unlike before since he is king. This is not fair.

Kastav PovPissed off was a word which didn’t describe the way I truly felt, it was not enough and I was basically fuming, when I saw Sorens while I was in my mist form again, I didn’t think of it and I continued to my room, as soon as I entered and shut the door, I threw my table at it in anger.How dare he pull the Yama card on me? Father has been dead for less than a week and he was already wanting to punish Catia, Who gave him that right?It didn’t matter that Catia was a little out of line but then again when is that girl not always out of line besides, it was the foreigner’s fault. They all were exactly the same, Gwenn, Themis all of them, none of them had a right to be here in Northshore and be talking about issues which doesn’t concern them. Catia life was not related to Themis concern at all. She should have kept her mouth shut.I hate being powerless and not being able to do anything, not just that but having no choice to stomach Arius r

Gwenn pov I wanted to take Orel and Themis for sightseeing but my plans were way laid. Well, it was not like I was the one who was going to take them to all the places they needed to see and explain the places to them. No, that was the job of Sorens who was going to come along with me.Getting up and hearing that Themis, Orel and Elison had already left for the tour was annoying enough but what was even more annoying was the news that I had to go and see my husband. He was the last person I wanted to see.I didn’t trust myself to be in the same place as him and not attack him for what he did and now, I had no choice. The people who I would have used as a buffer has already started their tour around and I know Orel will be bored out of his mind. That is if he was not still angry about the evening before.I still couldn’t believe that Catia tried to kill Themis, until I see that girl, she hiding behind her brother is not going to cut t

24 YEARS LATER. Gwenn Pov “I want to run a sword through you so badly that the feeling is visceral. After all these years together I cannot believe you still are a bigoted two timing jerk.” I yelled as I stormed into the throne room, Arius behind me. “I am Yama, I cannot be seen as the fool being controlled by the Alal. It would undermine my ruling…” Arius tried explaining but he just made me even more furious than usual. “Your ruling… I am right and the whole kingdom is aware of that, the forgotten world should not be explored.” “It has been over twenty years. I know that you don’t want it to be explored and that was why I came up with the suggestion that I did. Let it be explored by a selected group of youth, freed from the machinations of the council and led by our children. But you had to spoil it by talking out of turn.” “Did you hit your head without my knowledge?” I asked surprised. Whatever makes

Gwenn Pov“You and Orel will soon be going back won’t you?” I asked. Throughout that day, I had caught Themis and Orel sent each other glances.“Yes. We have to, our work here is almost done and we need to go back.” Themis answered. She would have given me more information but I had a feeling she stopped because I was no longer their citizen. I was now a Northerner.So was she but her loyalty lies with Dar because she was married to one of the rulers.“Almost?” I asked her.“Yes we still have one more task to do. Your curse has been broken and Arius own also has, the empire is slowly flourishing and getting itself back. It has been just three months but the repairs are almost done. Northshorians certainly do not let anything keep them down for long.”I winced at her words.“We prefer Northerners.” I answered as she smiled. “But I stil

Arius Pov I cannot believe that I slept through the period where my country was hijacked and my brother was possessed by an evil spirit that eventually killed him. Kastav was not evil, all he was, was greedy. Maybe I could have prevented this if I had listened to Gwenn warning at first. Gwenn thinks the death of others were on her but she could not be further from the truth. They were on me.Gwenn was Alal, her role was to keep the peace, mine was to fight if the peace was threatened. She was a foreigner and she had no vested interest in saving Northshore but she still did. She had nothing to feel, no weight to carry.I was supposed to carry them all because I could have prevented the death of my sister and Sorens and my councilors too but I did not. I chose to ignore the words of a seer. My fault but now, things are strange and Northshore us not as we know it to be. Old records are being dug. T

Gwenn Pov“You have to stand up and stop moping.” Orel started. “You have been lying in bed for two days now, you don’t have the luxury of lying around, not when you have a kingdom to restore and a husband to find.”“Sorens is dead Orel. He died because of my order that he should protect the king, if he is dead than Arius also is.” I stated as I sniffled while holding on to Elison’s hand while he laid beside me.“But…” Orel started but I grew annoyed.“Only three council members remaining, my husband dead, Sorens dead and his siblings, four dead. These are only the deaths I am aware of, excluding a legion which is dead and you are trying to tell me that I am not at fault. If I never came here, this would never have happened. This is all my fault.” I screamed at Orel and when Elison face wrinkled as he ope

Themis PovI had appeared at the right time. Gwenn was in shock, staring at a body on the ground. Without looking at the body, I knew that it was Silana, one of the blind spots in my gift. A blind spot that might have saved the world.“Would you look at that, the same way I killed Sorens, I also killed that brat. The next on the list is you.” Kastav crackled as he moved towards Gwenn in a leisured pace.I could not allow that to happen, there was not much I could do except throw a dagger, which I collected from Orel, his way. I needed to get Gwenn to snap out of her mind and tell her what I learnt. She needed to tap into my gift so she could win.When the dagger met its mark, I ran towards Gwenn even as he grunted.“You.” He growled as he sent something my way but it never had the chance to reach me becau

Themis PovI was tired of falling. I have been falling for what felt like hours now because since Kastav sent us into the portal he created, I have not been able to stop falling. My only consolation is that Orel and my son has been on the same length as me, no one of us ever leaving the same length so we could keep each other in the same eyesight. That should have been the first marker for me but I had ignored it. We stopped shouting when the fall did not stop and even started conversing and that was when something different happened.“I wish this would just end soon.” Orel grated.“It should have ended because we are not of the same weight and yet we are still falling at the level of falling.” I voiced“My wife must be tired of viewing my face since she wants me to fall faster.” Orel replied wryly.“No, that is not it.

Catia povMy brother is possessed by a drude. That alone makes him unable to rule but I would not be the person to tell him that, not when the last few people who did, died. I now know why Silana said I was the biggest scum at Kastav side. I pushed him to this. If I had allowed him to be contented with his life when he was just a prince and stop his ambitions then maybe this would have never happened.And now I was on my way to see my favorite brother who killed three of my other brothers and made me his queen. The only time I was ever this scared was when Father became ill and even then, he was present to calm me down but who is going to calm me of my fear from him.“You took your time.” Kastav growled the minute I entered the throne room. A room that has become his favorite in the castle even though he hardly do anything in it.“I got the message le

I wanted to ask so many questions, so badly but I could not. My tongue was tied as I watched the entity that was partly inside me since. I apparently crossed the world of the living to their world. I had passed through a physical gate and landed myself here both body and spirit.“Am I still alive?” I questioned.“Yes.” She laughed. “Very much so. Oh how I wished that I could get to spend time with you and know you, my newer self but I cannot. Time has ran out and our world is in jeopardy. Both of our worlds. You need to defeat Mazikeen but for that to happen, we need to go back to the beginning because for the future to be safe once more, the genesis of it all has to be known. Are you ready?” She asked.I nodded my replied. I have been ready ever since I started this journey.“Mazikeen did not go out looking for power, he stumb

“What is going on?” Catia approached me the moment, I entered. I watched as our other siblings eyed us, my brothers especially. They must have guessed what was.“What mother wanted for me.” I replied my sister. I watched as Catia eyes farrowed as she tried to reason what I said. I saw the exact moment she understood. The joy in her gaze and then she hugged me.“I am happy brother. Congratulations.” She replied before she went back to our siblings.I walked to the throne, the direction which everybody was facing and in front of everybody, I sat down in the seat meant for Yama. Utter silence filled the room, regardless of the people in it. All eyes on me as they realized that this was me over throwing my brother.“Any questions?” I asked.“What about the king…” A Mareikura asked
