The gentle , intimate caress of midnight was the first thing Elin remembered when She'd woken up in her new surroundings dazed and freezing cold.
Nicknamed "The Land of Nix" , Elin had known where she had been involuntary taken to the second, she had opened her cat like golden eyes, her long lashes fluttering in fear because the sight in front of her could scare the hell out of a grown man twice her size .
Her petit light caramel colored hands quivering as she crossed them mindlessly around her scantly clad dainty frame that shook violently due to the strong gusts of winds
swirling her thick auburn curls around like the horses of a carousel as she tried her best to retain what little heat her small body produced .Her tiny button nose wriggled distastefully as she took in her abhorrent surroundings here it smelled of Ashwood , lightly of cigars and heavily of black orchards , the vibe radiating off this place very mysterious and hair raising terrifying.
It didn't even feel like real life here but more like a morbid yet prolonged walk down a beautiful death the entire land the definition of an oxymoron.
Elin had awoken on a raised stone alter similar to the one she would be placed on for her accession ceremony tomorrow morning, but this was most definitely not the lively gorgeous granite setting her accession would take place in.
Elin had gone to bed that night , the day before her accession to matriarch of the world, pampered and prepared feeling inadequate for the role as usual , but still happy as she'd been put to bed with the kisses and encouragement of her loved ones.
She had closed her warm golden orbs for what felt like a few seconds in her pink fluffy room that was decorated to her hearts content , but a few second later when she'd opened them again she was not in her cute girly bedroom but was all alone in the clan she prayed the most to never have to visit as her future role of Argons Matriach.
Clan Scorpio
Known for its intense vibes and clarfoient population most people on Argon avidly avoided the 10th clan crossing through their lands only when absolutly necessary.
So very little was known about the mysterious land , and naïve little Elin had unintentionally just astral projected there in her sleep , a big miscalculation one wrong move , and she'd be dead on sight.
As a young girl Elin had been dangerously obsessed with traveling she wanted to venture out and see all 13 zones and even more beyond that if beyond that existed But as the third her traveling before her marital binding was strictly forbidden , for fear that she might become bias to one or more clans or even worse fall in love and give away her ritualistic virginity.
Also in all the years that the ascension ceremony had successfully shifted power between the zodiac groups there were some groups that had never been chosen to receive the power of the 13th ,in history ever , that wanted to over throw the ritual and start a war and the first step to doing that would be killing Elin.
Because Elin was Argons most precious physical link to the gods for the next 50 years and if she died then the planet would fall to utter chaos giving those outcast clans a chance to clean up the mess , and redo the deal with the gods then reign power over the planet.
And Clan Scorpio , Gemini ,Aries and Aquarius made up the entirety of those clans unfavored by the gods who wanted Elin dead. The gods had never forgiven them for there large part in the cruelty and harshness to the planet during the original blood wars aka the wars before time. Everyone alive at that time had shamefully taken part in the wars but those zodiac signs were more ruthless than anyone , they had almost bathed in the hatred , and never apologized sincerely.
