Hiiiii. I'm Blue Bird. Welcome to my chaotic corner of the world. This chapter is not compulsory to read. I just thought to make things easier I'd explain a few facts and… Maybe add on as we go. You can decide to delve into the story and pick up all these facts on your own. It's still a solid plan. But I'd leave this here In case you have any questions later.
So, permit me to be dramatic, and just… me in this chapter. Here we go.
*****
Time is one thing that never changes. It's ever constant, just slowly ticking away by seconds. Time in itself never changes, but then again, times are changing.
Empires rise and fall, stories are made, told, retold, changed, twisted, forgotten, sung… Till they become distant whispers we know, but aren't quite sure how.
Reality becomes tales.
Tales become legends…
Legends become myths…
And myths?
They become… lies.
Or bedtime stories and lullabies to put children to sleep at night.
The world had long followed this pattern, and The Realm Of 10 Crowns where this story takes place isn't any different. Tales of a goddess and a mad, mortal king who were once so in love, that they nearly broke the world for the sake of their love, have been woven into long-forgotten legends.
But the thing about legends is that they ALWAYS come back.
This story takes us through the dramatic reunion of these two forces who had been separated by time, conspiracies, and betrayals.
Now, let's understand the layout of The Realm Of Ten Crowns, shall we?
This realm is divided into 10 Kingdoms. Kingdoms may rise, and fall, but there are only ever ten kingdoms allowed to exist at a time. Nothing less, nothing more.
Below are the Kingdoms of the realm in order of their power and influence within the realm.
1. Blood Crescent (The strongest Kingdom in the realm and has been the most powerful for centuries);
A kingdom of hemo/ blood crafters.
2. Velmoria(The second most powerful kingdom in the realm);
A kingdom of Dragon Borns.
3. The Sun Kingdom (The third Strongest Kingdom of the realm);
A kingdom of light crafters.
4. Cryvaris:
The kingdom of frost-borne people. Wardens of eternal winter
5. Ocevaris;
Home to sirens and masters of water magic
6. Gorvahn;
The home of Ogres. Masters of nature
7. Aethyros;
Home to shapeshifters with the ability to take on any identity or form.
8. Umbrithal;
Home to the Noctari( Masters and manipulators of darkness and shadows)
9. Pixie Valley(Now A Fallen Kingdom);
Home to fairies who are masters of natural elements, now run by rebels
Animary (Now A Fallen Kingdom);
Home to animal shifters. Now also run by rebels.
Power is shifting. Kingdoms are falling again. Chaos is coming… Our goddess and mortal king are about to reunite. Will they?
Will they save the realm?
Or will they throw the world into chaos again?
When politics and decite surrounds you. You need to be as gentle as a dove, but as vicious as a snake
