Hello readers Author here, I am sorry I didn't post a second chapter yesterday I was busier than I realized. I also wanted to ask your opinion; I would like to begin storyboarding a new story. Let me be clear I am not writing a new story simply jotting down ideas and timelines in my odd free ours during the day. Given that I would like to ask your opinion on which story I should focus on. 

The Legend of Zelda: Merlin: Your average guy wakes up in Hyrule with some talent in magic. 

Zelda: A Knights tale: A solider is given the chance to reincarnate into Hyrule being given his choice of a fictional character's skills. 

A Dominant in Avatar: Eight people are reincarnated into the world of avatar each holding a terrible spirit within them. 

A dragon in avatar: A guy gets reincarnated as a dragon (Not a Chinese dragon) starting from a baby to his adult life. 

Harry potter: Yoda, a guy gets thrown into Harry Potter in the body of Yoda's species. (force potential in changed to magic)

If you are wondering why I chose these worlds then it is because I am more familiar with these and have confidence that I cannot significantly mess up.

Stretching I stood up from my bed in the palace "Man I missed this place".

Despite the room's larger size, I had little furniture decorating the place, instead I chose things like banners, weapons, and armor that were obscure references to things from my old world. 

Walking over to a cupboard I took out a pair of pants and shirt. Then I threw on a green cloak held together by a silver leaf clasp. Walking out of my room I quickly made my way to my one office to look over some papers that had piled up. Fortunately overtime I have been able to distribute the work to others only leaving the city-wide issues for myself. 

"Alright, what have I missed?" I said sitting down in my padded chair. Picking up a few pieces of paper I speed read through them "Alright, so a request for a few wells, a request asking for new guards. Oh. This is interesting, a request asking permission to establish a smaller town a hundred miles or so from the city itself" 

"My Lord, you have returned"

I looked up to see Arin's surprised expression "Yes, I returned late last night" I replied chuckling. 

"It is good to have you back my lord" he said formally. 

"It is good to be back" I replied then lifted up the paper "What do you know about this request?" 

Arin walked over and gently took the paper out of my hand giving it a good read, all the while rubbing his chin with his left hand. 

"I recognize this request," he said. 

"And?"

"It comes from a dwarf named Hadun. He has been pestering me and the other overseers about getting permission as well as resources to create a new town"

"Has he said why?"

"From what I remember of our brief conversation is to create trade routes within the floor, as most of our resources come from the surrounding area and the rarer ones can be found further out. Ultimately, he just wants to capitalize on these rarer resources to turn a profit" 

Taking the paper back I picked up a pen and signed my name at the bottom "Well it's approved, despite the most likely selfish desires behind it, it's a good Idea nonetheless" 

"Very well my lord" he said, taking the paper back. 

Looking up I pointed to one of the guards outside the open door "Do you mind grabbing Faunalyn for me, she should be attending to our guest" 

"Yes, my lord" he said with a quick bow then ran off to grab her. 

"What about the other requests my lord?" Arin asked. 

"I will personally add in some new wells later, as for the guards I will let you deal with the recruitment" I replied signing both papers. 

"Alright" 

We spent the next few minutes chatting about random events that happened while I was gone, so far there was a lab explosion from an alchemist and also apparently a fight broke out over who could bake better bread. 

"You called for me My Lord," Faunalyn asked, kneeling. 

"Please, stand. I just wanted to check up on our guest" 

Standing up she began to give a report "She is doing quite well, the accident seemed to have left some very deep psychological scars, at first it was difficult to get her to eat but eventually I was able to convince her. Though she has yet to leave her room though". 

"She hasn't left her room?"

"Correct my lord, it's difficult enough to get her to bathe and get dressed, every attempt to get her to go out has been met with steadfast refusal. Though I haven't been very active in that endeavor" 

"That's fine we don't want to force her, if her mentality is that fragile" I began but then got an idea "Actually return to her room and inform her that I want to meet her here in my office. Due to my station, it just might work, though if she refuses then leave her be" 

Looking hesitant, Faunalyn said "Yes my lord" and left to retrieve Azula. 

"Is this wise my lord? I don't mean to question but If her mental state is that fragile this could have a negative effect on her" 

"No, you're right. If she doesn't come, I will find a place in the city for her to stay, can't really have a guest who refuses to see her host" 

"So, it's a test then"

Basically" 

I ended up having to wait almost an hour for Faunalyn to return, though she entered the room alone. 

"No Azula?" I asked. 

Looking sheepish she explained "Actually she's right outside, in her own words "if I must go then I will have proper attire" so it took longer than expected to get her ready"

"Ah, well she is a princess so that makes some sense. Please show her in" 

Standing aside Fanalyn waved Azula in from outside the door. Azula looked much the same as she did in the TV show, she even still wore her standard fire nation armor and hair pin. The only real difference was her left eye which was a striking sapphire blue. As she entered, she made a slight bow towards me as well as Arin surprisingly. 

"How has your stay here been Azula?" I asked. 

"It has been acceptable Tower Master" she replied, void of her normal haughtiness and pride. 

"That is good, Faunalyn has informed me that you have yet to leave your room" 

"I have been recovering from my injuries" 

"That reminds me, how do you like the eye I gave you" 

"I am grateful that you helped me to regain my sight. When I heard of the seriousness of my injuries I was surprised by the skill of your healers" 

"Did they tell you where the eye came from?"

"I was told it belonged to a dragon" 

"Correct, an elder dragon to be precise and actually that is what I wanted to talk to you about"

Flinching she asked, "Do you intend to take the eye back". 

Honestly, I am surprised by how much she has lost her edge; I expected her to still be somewhat like what was shown in the show. 

"No. What I mean is that I can't keep you in this city forever, you are royalty from another nation it would be inappropriate. What I wanted to mention is that because of the eye you are no longer completely human" 

"I'm not human?" 

"You mostly still are but the elder dragon eye is a powerful artifact over time it will influence your body more and more making you stronger, making your skin resistant to heat and even increasing the intensity of your flame which you no doubt noticed" she was about to speak but I raised my hand stopping her "Because of that I wanted to offer you a unique choice" 

"What kind of choice?" she asked skeptically. 

"You can either choose to become a noble of this city or to return home in a months' time" 

"You would make me a noble?"

"You are currently a princess, and I would not rob you of your noble status completely, that said you won't be royalty anymore if you decide to stay" she started to speak again but I silenced her "If you would like to think about it you can have the week to decide" 

"I would like to stay," she said, surprising me with her quick answer. 

"Are you sure, making a hasty decision..." I started but she interrupted. 

"My father betrayed me, he saw I was beaten and tried to kill me" she said with anger clear on her face. 

"Fair enough, there is an empty estate not far from the palace I will have it made ready for you, but this does come with a catch" 

"What catch?" 

"You can't just hold up in your estate or command people to do everything for you. You yourself must become a productive member of this city. If not, I will have no choice but to take your noble status" 

"Did you have anything in mind specifically" 

Before I could talk Arin replied saying "My Lord. I have a few areas of administration where she could begin" 

Looking at Azula I asked, "Will that work?"

"Yes," she said, pausing. Then she knelt "My Lord" 

Looking over to Faunalyn I asked, "I know I asked you to aid her originally, but do you wish to continue as Azula's aide?" 

"As much of a pain as she has been I would like to continue" 

"Then it's decided. Azula, you are now one of the few nobles helping to oversee the city. I hope you do good work". I exclaimed "Now if you'll excuse me, I need to go make some wells" I finished getting weird looks from everyone except Arin who stifled a laugh.
