The Lost Dragon Priestess
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”

I love how you named the characters here... Xhella, Savayna, Delphina, even dragon's name Winter.
It''s really a nice opening for a story and I do love the idea of the story itself. I think your novel has the potential to grow bigger. Do you mind if I ask for your social media/e-mail since I want to offer you something related to your work?
