High on a mountain sits a castle surrounded by dragons and warriors of every kind, two
princesses born to be the dragon priestesses of the north and the
southern regions of the dragon kingdom. Xhella and Savayna are both
beautiful strong warriors, Xhella specializes in healing magics,
and heavy hand weapons and had future sight a blessing the dragons gave
her. while Savayna specializes in archery, and dark magics. They became
of age at sixteen when they had the right to succession to their
lands But Savayna wasn’t happy with having half of the kingdom. So
Savayna called on her guard and her voice echoed thru the halls
“Dephina“ her voice was devastating as a sea storm. she looked at
her “Yes mistress “ her plan diabolical and in motion. “I need
you to get rid of my sister she is unworthy of her land and I want to
have it all, Take her out to the garden and knock her out and throw
her off a cliff” Delphina bowed in response. “Yes, mistress all
will follow you into greatness for our kingdom” Savayna held out
an ax to Delphina “Here take this and use this since she is so fond
of axes let it bring an end to her. “ Delphina took the ax and left
her chambers.
Meanwhile, in Xhella’s room, she looked in a mirror and looked at herself, she
had white hair and green eyes, Horns for ears, she was beautiful and
moved the hearts of the people. “Time to get ready for the day”
her voice was sweet and soft like cotton candy tastes, “Today's
the day” her attendant began brushing her hair. “Mistress Xhella
you will be the greatest princess this kingdom has ever seen. “she
blushes and her hair was braided and placed up in a high ponytail.
“Serena we will work together and solve as many problems for the
people and dragon kind” she smiles as he stands up to finish
getting dressed “Succession for a brighter kingdom.” she looked
to her attendant when a crack at the door was heard, “Mistress It is
Delphina, Savayna has told me to watch over you for the day.”
Xhella motioned for the door to be opened, and the door creek-ed as
sinister as Savayna plans “I am glad my sister has sent you, you
have always been faithful to the people” she bows in her light
suited amour piece fashioned in gold and a cyan shimmer of a dragons
scales. “I hope my sister is ready to take over the southern lands
and is ready to work together for the future” Xhella stated as she
gracefully passed by “Delphina come on let us take a walk in the
garden, like we normally do “ Delphina nodded “Of course mistress
I will tell her your message after our walk” a curled cruel smile
landed on her face as she bowed.
Walking in the gardens of the castle walls Xhella looked over the flowers blue and
red and purple. Xhella called for her dragon guardian “Winter!” a
whistle, down from the sky a white dragon landed in the garden,
since Xhella was a dragon priestess she began to speak with him,
“Princess today is the day you will become the queen of the
norther-lands, so I am gifting you a necklace golden to the touch of
your magics and it will help you and guide you on your journey”
Xhella held out her hand “Thank you Winter I will wear it in your
honor may I fight with your strength at my side” Xhella held on to
winters snout rubbing him gently, her hair blowing in the wind was
almost as if a somber goodbye. “Xhella my queen of the north may the
Gods guide you on this auspicious day”, Delphina is close and always
watching but never understanding a word that they are saying, she
interrupts them. “Princess, winter cannot be in the gardens he will
frost over the garden. “ Xhella nodded. “Winter I will see you at
the end of the ceremony” winter few off with a roar so loud it was
celebratory in its commanding excited tone he called out to the
younger dragons. “We shall have Two new dragon priestesses by
dusk-fall!” he roared out to all the dragons to meet their new
queens later that night, but that happiness was taken from them in an
instant.
Delphina walked from behind Xhella slowly creeping on her like a huntress looking at
its prey, Xhella looked straight ahead not looking back at her but
with a gentle voice. “You are acting suspicious Delphina, don't
tell me you plan to follow my sisters' order “ she looked back a
crystal tear falling from her eyes a pause cracking in her voice. “I
hope you realize your mistake before you take the road with my sister
she would destroy the land with her destructive behavior and
greediness” Xhella pulled out her Ax “Delphina I know how it will
end but I will not go down without a fight “ she charged ahead
her ax swinging and clanking against her sword. “Princess you have
future sight but you will never be the queen of all the land!”
Delphina sticking back with a strength equal to hers “Delphina
did you forget I can see the future, not all but in visions that the
gods granted me, you will cause devastation and start a war between
the dragons! ” their battle fierce and strong Xhella sprinted on
the wall and leaped back hitting Delphina's sword and knocking it out of
her hand “Delphina I win you must not follow thru!” Then in an
instant Xhella was knocked out, “Mistress” Delphina bowed to
Savayna “I see I have given you too hard a task” she scowled
“Sorry mistress” A smack across Dephinas face as Savayna hit her
with her anger. “Do not fail me this time take Xhella and kill her
by a river make it look like winter did it” Savayna watched Dephina
closely as she helped Delphina smuggle her sister out of the castle.
Outside of the castle walls, Delphina began to worry that Xhella was right so instead
of killing her she went to the black market and sought out a potions
master, “I need something to erase memories” she got a potion and
made Xhella an unconscious take the potion. Xhella coughed up and
began spitting up blood from asphyxiation from swallowing a strong
fever ensued over her unconscious body. Delphina began to worry so
she took Xhella by teleportation magic to a neighboring kingdom and
threw her off to the side of a nearby river. Delphina bowed before
Xhella “Sorry princess, May the gods watch over you in this new
beginning”
The sounds of a river stream begin to hit Xhellas horns, she was weak
and unable to move she was confused and in a new land. “Hmm where am
I?” she asked herself but sitting by the stream she looked into the
water and sees herself “Who, what am I?” her fingers touch the
water and in shock she drew her fingers back, “What is going on?”
she looked at her gear “Looks like I am some sorta warrior” she
tried to gather her lost and confused thoughts, she sat there till
her stomach grumbled. “I need something to eat “, standing to
her shaken feet she began looking for something to eat. Hearing the
sounds of footsteps she hides in a nearby bush. A man singing by the
river in a deep low voice she was captivated by his singing “One
day by the river I will find a wife and feed her a fish, We will go
on a desperate adventure to find ourselves,” she blushes hearing him
and thought to herself.” What a kind voice surely he must be a
kind man” she walks out of the bush the sounds of leaves hitting
themselves as she peeked out in a shy voice. “Sir can you tell me
where I am?” she had a red flustered face from fever and her head
sweated, “I uhmm can’t remember anything” she was shaken a bit
and scared. “Can you tell me anything that can help me?” in an
the instant he looked at her, captivated and staring he looked at her “We
are in the kingdom of Bellisima” he looked at her with concern “You
look sick are you alright?” she leaned into a tree “I am fine”
she touched the tree her hand on the bark the potion inside of her
still making her thoughts scrambled, she spoke with a shaken voice
as she was about to pass out. “I ..am..not..sure” he ran to her
and placed his hands out to catch her if she fell “Well My name is
Melvin” he placed his hand on her face to check her “You feel
hot” she nods “I found myself here” she held on to his arms, and in
an instant when she touched him she had a vision of them on an
adventure going thru crazy things and searching for where she
belonged. A faint smile fell on her face “I think we are going to
be together for a while” she fell into his arms and passed out. He
was shaken by her falling into his arms and speaks to himself, “what
did I get myself into “ he was shaken and carried her to his town
where he sought out a local doctor.
It was dusk and the doctor began to look at her and examine her “ahh you must be her
husband “ he smiled at him, “What's her name?” Melvin didn’t
know how to respond. “No” his voice trembling in embarrassment.
They casually talk and they exchange glances “What’s your
beautiful Dragonis's name?” he coughed and got choked up “Uhh
she just passed out in my arms near the river “ just then Xhella
opened her eyes and things were glossy “Xhella I think?” she was
confused tired and steaming like dumplings in a pot “Doctor whats
wrong with me?” he looked at her and gave her medicine to lower her
fever, “I am trying to find out “Can you tell me what you all
remember?” Xhella held her fingers at the sides of her head, she
struggled but closed her eyes and began to speak the things she
remembered “My name is Xhella, I woke up by the River, I think I
have a family I ..just can't remember, I know I have this ax on me and
this Necklace” she held on to the necklace on her neck ,“I think
someone important gave it to me” she looked at him. “Well it
looked like you were forced to swallow something I would need to do
an analysis on your blood to see what has happened”, she agreed and
he began examining her blood “hmmm” he nods. “Hmmm well”
Melvin and Xhella looked at each other “What is it doctor ?” he
looked to them “Well it seems you were poisoned with a potion that
erases memories, unfortunately, I have never seen one of this caliber
before and I know no way to bring your memories back.” the doctor
adjusted his glasses “I can only give you something to stop the
potion from making you forget everything even your name you are lucky
you remembered that” At a loss for words Xhella placed her face in
her hands. “Just give it to me...” she was flustered not
remembering more about herself, the doctor spun in his chair and
performed alchemy and made her a potion to stop the effects “Here
take this hurry before things worsen” Melvin stood behind her,
“Doc?” he looked at him. “Is there any way we can help her find
her memories?” the doctor looked at him and sighed with a shaken
motion, “The only hope of finding something out is to take her
around the world to discover something that will help her recover her
memories” Xhella took the potion and giggled lightly after. “That’s
funny” she places her hand on her chin “I had a dream that took
me on an adventure” she blushes looking at Melvin he looked at her
with confusing eyes “Oh is that what you meant earlier?” looking
at her with a confused brow. “Who said I would go with you?” A
laugh echoed off the walls “You two argue like a married couple”
the doctor laughed. “Off you two go I am closed” the doctor
mentioned as he opened the door letting them walk out the door.
Xhella walked past and then Melvin, the doctor tapped Melvin on the
way out “I know you took a break from adventuring Melvin but you
should consider taking care of her and journeying with her it might help
you get back into your heroism.” Melvin had a look of despair on his
face as if a painful memory hit him “I understand” he walked out
the door speechless and headed to the local Inn.
The night air was chilly as they began to walk to the inn, “It is nice
here” the cold air kept her awake and alert “I assume you are
hungry ?” Xhella nodded to him as she spoke. Melvin grabbed her by
the hand and walked her to the bar and made her sit. “Stay “ he
was melancholic and unsure of what he was going to do, “Can I get
two rooms?” he asked the inn keep. “I am sorry young man there's
only one room left, Seeming as if there were strangely more Warriors from
the Dragons land what is the name of it, Oh Yeah Dragitti. “ he nods
“Seems they are forming a rebellion Apparently a war between the
north and south” he paused looking at him and then at Xhella. “Isn't
their women beautiful?” Melvin blushed. “This one was by the River
she lost her Memories and only remembers slight things here and there.
about herself.” an exhausted sigh left Melvin’s lip and looked to
the barkeep, “Can we at least get two beds in that room?” the bar
keep laughed heartily at him “It is just a double bed, Plus what if
she got lost she would barely know where she is.” he smirked
“Isn’t that what hero's like you do protect the Cute
princess?” he teased as he nudged his shoulder “Alright
Alright here take your gold for the room.” Melvin held his face at
the thought of them sharing a room and possibly making Xhella
uncomfortable. He placed his room and grabbed the key and thinking he
found out good information already. Melvin sits next to Xhella as
she was drinking water waiting for him to order “So what did the
barkeep says Melvin?” she smiled playfully knowing that men talk
from the way, Melvin’s and the barkeep's body language read. Melvin
wore a red embarrassed face as he tried to reply knowing that
with her horns, she probably heard the whole conversation. “Well we
are going to share the room.”, he chuckled awkwardly “Well all is
fine Plus l have a feeling you will want to protect this princess
hero.” she teased smirking look up at him. A click of his tongue hit
his lips, “So you heard” he blushed to scratch his head. She
chuckled “I am sure once I remember where and who I am exactly I
will pay you handsomely.” she pointed at her necklace. “After all
this is worth something it just looks like it belongs to someone
important.” They sat at the bar and ordered food, they had steak
and potatoes and he told her of his perilous problems in his
adventuring carrier. “Hahaha well, that is what happens when you do
something destructive in town, making a simple delivery.” Melvin
laughed more comfortably than the earlier conversations were going
they had warmed up in the heat of a friendly inn. “Xhella should we
head up to turn in for the night.” a glistened sparkle in her eye
“Sure, just I get the covers.” she laughed and teased him about
sharing a room. It was as if she never had a fun conversation in her
life or so it seemed. Turning in for the night they slept side by
side each having one cover a piece.
It was morning dawn and they had woke up and headed down the stairs it was
oddly quiet as they step down the creaking steps, “Morning?”
Melvin spoke trying to have someone make a scurry the quietness was
deafening, Anyone could hear their clanking boots. Xhella had
stepped ahead of Melvin being impatient, she was frozen in time for mere
moments. “What's happening down here” her voice cracking and
shaking, a gang of men wherein the Inn swords pointed bows drawn, and
Staffs Wielded against everyone eating, it looked like they were
there early morning as some of the workers' legs were shaking in
exhaustion.” WHO ARE YOU! YOU ARE COMING WITH US!” the leader of
the gang said in a devious tone. “I hear they looking for A TRASH
LIKE YOU !” A loud scary manly voice. Xhella stepped back and hit
Melvin and he held her trying to comfort her. There stood Melvin's
sword and staff equipped looking like a knight in shining Armour
ready to take her problems on like a true hero always there when in
need.
