Zelda’s POV

I was starting to feel like a damsel in distress!

How was I always getting kidnapped and needing to be saved? It’s actually kind of exhausting. Especially when I was brought up to believe women were the most powerful people in the world. If that’s the case, then why the fuck was I always needing rescuing? Why couldn't one of the boy get kidnapped instead?

The Griffon finally set me down in what I believed was his nest. He was quite gentle. He closed his wings and looked curiously at me. His head tilted to the side. 

“Hi.” I forced a smile. His head tilted to the othe rside. “Um squel esh wullop Zelda.”

I hoped he realized that I said my name was Zelda. My Yanesh was extremely rusty.

“Squap rius Nerius.” He squawked. 

“Nerius. Cool, great name. Now is there a reason you brought me here? Not that I’m not grateful for the flight, it’s just I&rsq

    The others didn’t seem as thrilled with flying as I did. They all looked terrified, but I knew I was safe with Nerius. Maybe a little too safe with him.I felt bad that he wanted me to stay when I couldn’t. I figured he must be extremely lonely if he wanted me to stick around just after one conversation.The Griffon’s lived in treehouses. They were of course incredibly large because of how big the Griffons were. Szan was accompanying us to dinner to be our translator.The Griffons did not look especially thrilled to see us. I imagine they don’t like people coming to their land and participating in these trials. I’m sure it was a disruption to their lives.According to Szan, Nerius insisted that I sit next to him.“So what do they even eat?” Cedric questioned.“Since you are guests, they have a very special meal prepared. There are seven courses and you must eat all of it to be prope

    A second later I stopped worrying about my state of mind. This was amazing! I was going to be happy for thirteen hours straight. Nothing could ruin my good mood.“This is the best news ever!” I laughed. “I’m so happy and thrilled and I love you all so much.”“I love you.” Penn said passionately. “More than anything in this world.”“Oh Penn.” I grabbed his face and kissed him. Kissing him felt like a total dream. Almost unreal.“Wait, I love you too, Zelda!” Hunter whined “Kiss me too!”“Of course darling.” I kissed Hunter.“Oz, I think I’ll die without you.” Zeke said dreamily. “I love you so much.”“I love you back.” Oz laughed. “I want to marry you.”“Ooh, marriage sounds fun!” Posy gasped. “I’ve always wanted to get married.&rdquo

    “Who the hell did you marry?” Zeke asked.“I have no clue! Maybe both of them?”“So you all celebrated the honeymoon together then?” Posy laughed almost hysterically.“What’s going on with you Posy?” I questioned.“Oh nothing, I just woke up in bed with Wyatt and we had no clothes on!”“Good job Wyatt.” Cedric chuckled.“I cheated on Kurt with an Aleni, he’ll just die if he finds out!” She wailed.“Come on, it wasn’t your fault.” I said quickly. “I mean that wine changed us completely!

    Posy was inconsolable.“No! I can’t be married! I don’t even know Wyatt that well and he’s an Aleni!”“Posy-”“Zelda, what am I supposed to do? How do I face Kurt ever again?”“Just get it annulled.” Zeke suggested.“Well, if they consummated the marriage, an annulment will not be possible.” Szan informed us.“Oh Veone, take me now!” Posy wailed. “We consummated so many times!”“Yeah, we did.” Wyatt smiled.“What about divorce? Can they get a divorce?” Penn questioned.“Not unless one of them does something heinous to each other.” Szan said.“Heinous?” Cedric asked. “What would be considered heinous?”“I’d say biting someone is pretty heinous.” I stated.“Oh you’re just never going to get over that, are yo

    We continued listening to Wyatt’s story.“So yeah, my mom hates me. I met this guy who offered to bite me and help him take over the world...I definitely agreed to it. I mean I definitely wasn’t going to get a better offer than that. How sad, right?” The Griffons were almost howling in laughter. “Oh don’t worry it gets better. I met the girl of my dreams and she said she wanted to marry me. Well this morning she decided she should have her head cut off instead of being with me. Great confidence booster right?”The Griffons were seriously enjoying this.“So can we get the talon now?” I whispered to Szan.“You all have to make them laugh.” He responded. “Now you know how to.”“Alright, you heard him, get your most depressing stories together!”Zeke went first. “So I’m a Duke right? Privileged as they come. Well you know how i

    Moxdea appeared to us the moment we exited the Harpcola Wilds.“Congratulations on getting the Griffon’s talons.”“Thank you, Moxdea.” I smiled. “You were very correct, the journey there was absolutely horrible and I don’t wish to do that again.”“Beware, Empress Zelda, for it doesn’t get easier from here.” Moxdea warned me.“How could it possibly get any harder?” Cedric questioned.“Don’t ask that!” I hissed. “Now it’s gonna get ten times harder.”“Just kill me now.”“Can I?” Hunter questioned.“Any tips on this journey Moxdea?” I asked.Her smoky head bobbed up and down. “This journey will be a stormy one. You will be in your one true form, you will confront the ghosts of your past, you must keep your head above water and re

    I gently pushed the wolf off of me. “What do you mean you can’t?”“I’ve tried! We all have!”“Zeke you can’t shift back either?” I asked.“Not at all.” He whined before scratching behind his ear. “You look different by the way.”“Yeah, so I’m told.” I muttered. “Cedric, can you shift back?”“Don’t you think I would have if I could.” His voice was much deeper and rough in monster form.“There’s no reason to be rude.” I snapped.“So, what do we do?” Posy questioned.“This must be our first obstacle.”“We couldn't even have a night to relax?” The Hunter’s white wolf groaned. “I can’t even mourn the loss of my relationship.”“Another time, lover boy!” Zeke barked. “We need to get ba

    Since I already knew what my life was like as Queen of the Aleni, I turned away from that reflection. And instead turned to the first one. It intrigued me that this was the form I had physically changed into.Was it supposed to be my one true form? Who I was supposed to turn into eventually? Was this a good or bad person and how would she come to be?I turned again to the wall with the blonde hair and silver eyes. I barely recognized myself in this reflection. But I had to admit blonde hair did look good on me.I reached out to touch the glass. I noticed that my reflection’s hand didn’t reach out. I gasped as I touched the glass and it wasn’t solid. Ripples ran through the image as though it was water. I stepped forward and my hand disappeared into the image. I think I could go through it!Maybe if I did, I’d find out exactly who she was. It was worth a try, right?I took a deep breath and stepped into the glass&hellip

    My body felt a shock at once. Electricity flowed quickly and then expelled itself out of my body. Was I going to die again? I wondered as I fell to my knees. I breathed heavily as the last of the lightning left. I paused to make sure I wasn’t going to die again. “Zelda!” I looked up and saw Penn running over to me. “Penn!” He scooped me up in his arms and held me tightly. “I thought I lost you!” “How relieved were you?” I joked. He set me down and kissed me. “Very relieved. But now you’re back and I’m miserable again.” I kissed him again. “Are you lying to an Empress? That’s a crime.” “And what would be my punishment?” Penn smiled down at me. “You have to marry me…for real this time.” “You sure I can’t just take death?” I laughed as Zeke ran over to us and embraced me. “Tell me that’s the last time you almost die!” “No promises. I think it’s over now, though.” I smiled.&nb

    Posy’s POV I hated her. Why did she do this? Why would she kill herself just to save the rest of us? Why wasn’t she selfish and logical? Why wouldn’t she just let us die for her with honor? Because Empress Zelda Xanatheal was a great leader. No one even cared about Cedric the moment Zelda hit the ground. The Aleni had been struck down and we had no one left to fight. We only wanted to see Zelda. I got to her first. I cried out upon feeling how limp she was in my arms. “Zelda?” I screamed. “Wake up Zelda, now!” She wouldn’t budge. The boys had transformed and put on their pants. Penn dropped to his knees. “Zelda?” He choked out. “Zelda, please wake up. I need you Zelda, please.” He was sobbing as he hugged her lifeless body. Hunter tried to comfort him, but he just pulled away and wailed. “I can’t live without her!” Penn cried out. “I can’t! How do we bring her back? Someone

    I stepped towards Cedric in horror. “You killed your father?” I asked shakily. “We both know he deserved it.” “What are you doing here?” “Oh, was I not invited? I’m sorry, I figured maybe my invitation got lost in the crystal mirror.” He feigned innocence. “Cedric, why are you here?” I cried. “You look so pretty in your wedding dress…and I’d make the perfect groom. Everyone’s already here Zel, let’s just do it.” “No, no! We had a deal, Cedric, you swore. Don’t do this!” “Ah the deal…yeah I thought about that, constantly over the last month. I don’t like it. I didn’t go through all of that shit to end up without you. So…the deal is off.” Cedric was many things, but he wasn’t usually a liar. The only thing he had ever really lied to me about was killing Astris and it only took him a few moments to reveal that lie. He didn’t believe in lying, he thought it was a waste of time. He was fine with being rut

    “Holy fuck!” I exclaimed. “You’re serious?!” “Very serious,” Penn said nervously digging into his pocket. He pulled out a stunning ring with a gorgeous blue gem on it. “Is that the -” “Gem of Xaxtar from Prince Mako, yeah. I know it was supposed to be a necklace, but I think it would look better on your finger. Posy helped me make it.” He smiled. “So? Can I be your Emperor for life?” “Yes! Of course! Absolutely!” I screamed. Penn got up and kissed me. I wrapped my arms around him tightly, absolutely elated. This was everything I ever wanted. I saved Uquix and I was going to marry the love of my life! He slipped the ring on my finger and I admired it. “It’s huge!” I exclaimed. “Isn’t it?” Posy asked. “I knew you’d love it!” “I can’t believe you didn’t tell me! I mean look at me I have soot all over my face and clothes!” I laughed. “You look beautiful,” Penn assured me before kissing me aga

    The lava immediately stopped flowing as golden light shot out the Shadow Precipice. A stunning woman walked out of the light even though there was no ground to stand on. She was stunning! Her long golden hair flowed behind her as the gold light danced off of her dazzling brown skin. Her white eyes were terrifying and yet so warm. She stood between Cedric and I as though trying to decide who the winner was. She turned to Cedric and my heart dropped. I really had lost. But I gave my best effort and everything that I had. I did my best, even if it wasn’t good enough. “You gave a great effort,” She said to Cedric. Suddenly it was just the woman and me. Cedric had disappeared. “Empress Zelda…you are the winner of The Four Trials of the Forsaken Apex.” Wait, I recognized that voice. “Moxdea?” I asked. “Yes, Empress, it is I. In my true form. You have released me from my duty by completing t

    We started climbing up the volcano slowly. We figured we should take it slow before things got out of control. The constant rumbling made me incredibly anxious. The volcano could erupt at any point. “Nervous?” Cedric questioned after a few moments of silence. “What makes you think that?” “You’re not usually quiet unless you feel unsure.” “Well...yes I am a little nervous but only because everything we’ve done these last few weeks has led up to this moment. Are you nervous?” I asked. “Yeah a little bit,” He admitted. “About what?” “Losing. Imagine I betrayed my kingdom and killed hundreds of creatures just to lose.” “Wow that would be really embarrassing for you,” I snorted. “Oh shut up.” “What else happened in your weird dream when we went in the quicksand?” I questioned. “It was so strange, but I was really happy. You were my wife. We wanted babies. I thought you we

Hopefully he could come back and spend more time with Nova and really get to know her.“It was an honor and a privilege to meet you, Empress Zelda. Please come back any time and visit us.” Nova stated.“She will,” Cedric assured her. “She’ll be back as my wife. Who knows, maybe we’ll make a baby here.”“Everytime I stop being disgusted with you, you give me a reason to be again. Congratulations, it’s really a talent.” I declared.“You’re so in love with me,” He grinned.“Anyways, Nova, you are welcome to Gynem any time, really.” I hugged her.“I know my son is a nuisance sometimes, but I would love to have you as a daughter-in-law.&r

    There were shouts of panic ringing in the air.As Penn and I were surrounded, I tried to see where the third dagger went. I quickly found out when Hunter started wailing. It was sticking out of his arm, so at least he wasn’t in immediate danger.“Save Zelda,” Penn said hoarsely. “Please, her not me.”“No save Penn first,” I breathed.“Zelda, you’re the priority!” Posy cried.“Royal Vizier Posy, as Empress of Gynem I order you to save Penn first!”Talking with a dagger in my stomach was not easy or pleasant, but I had to get my point across. Penn needed to come first.“What happened?” Zeke ran over to us. “Zelda, no!” He dropped on his knees next to me. “You’re going to be okay. Oh Veone, that’s a lot of blood!”“It’s okay, I’ll be fine.”I didn’t completel
