A woman runs, holding onto her torso as she keeps glancing behind her. Tears spilling from her already wet cheeks.

She catches her breath and screams as the hurt in her chest tore her up internally. "Why... why?!" She cries as her clenched fist hits her broken heart.

Her lover tried to drug her, thinking of ridding her of their unborn baby. She was hurt. She felt betrayed. She grew to hate him with all of her being. 

Still, memories of the love they shared still plagued her. How could she possibly still trust him? And yet, despite her anxiousness, she still held onto a small scale sliver of hope. All she could do now, was to leave him and keep their child safe.

16 years passed and there stood a young boy with silver hair and bright amethyst coloured eyes. He smiles at the horizon, staring at the capital city of the country of Enoch. Finally, he was old enough to venture out into the great city. Said to be the largest and most prosperous of the kingdom. 

He holds firmly onto the hope of an exciting journey as he kissed his mother goodbye. Thinking of all the warning she gave him before his journey could begin. 

Once in the city, his life changed forever and his perilous struggles began.

"You really thought to question my authority in front of others?" 


"... I merely worded out what I believed as a noble and a royalty from an alliance." 


"You forget your place. Before you are a queen, you were nothing. Who was the one who placed you in your seat? Crane your neck a bit more, and before you know it... the world will be spinning as your head rolls on the floor." 


"Do as told, Lilith. I won't repeat myself." 


"... I understand." Lilith replied in a subservient manner. 


"Good." the Voice on the other end cut off before the stone dimmed out and turned red, signifying the end of the call.
