The morning was colder than I had expected when I limped over to the clothes the queen's maid had laid out for me. It was a black, leather dress with elbow length, open ,cape-like sleeves, v shape at the top showing off my choker necklace, the one with sapphire the book charm, the entire outfit had silver highlights. Knee length boots and a silver glove that came around my thumb and a bit of elastic hooked around my middle fingers. I put my mid-length dirty blonde hair up in a ponytail.

Once I was dressed the queen came into my room to escort me to breakfast. I talked about the world where I came from, she told me all about Alerrawia and her kingdom, the Pinacle kingdom.

We got to the dining room, and started to eat breakfast when the king came into the room and a heated conversation started following along the lines of what they were going to do with me and I think the king also brought up what I was wearing, he sounded like my mother when I wore my brother's clothes! In the end the queen informed me that I would be going to Alerrawia story camp, then I told the queen that I had to find my way home and to that she responded.

"Don't worry, I am sure that you will find your way home. But please remember that this is a magical world compared to the world you're from, and to come into this world you would have some form of magic in you.."

"But your majesty, I couldn't possibly have magic in me!"

"I'm sure it will work out, and when you find your way back home remember if you need anyone because something happened come back here I know I can help you!"

We said our goodbyes and I thanked them for their kindness and then a carriage was pulled by pegasuses in all the colours of the rainbow, flew down from the sky.

Out stepped a middle aged man with a sword that read Excalibur.

"Come on, Rome Ever, we don't have all day," the man said to me with a big smile on his face. I followed the man into the carriage.

"So you're The King Arthur, like the real King Arthur?" I questioned the man.

"Yes child, I am the one the only King Arthur!" Arthur said, I giggled at his dramatics, "Where are we going King Arthur" I asked, emphasising king.

"We're going across the forest to find old Merlin, dear child" he said pointing his finger into the air and his arm around my shoulder. He asked me how I got here, so I told him the story that I had told oh, so many people.

King Arthur told me to look out the window of the carriage, and when I did, I saw a magical site, 40 or so children that looked about my age running around reading and writing, and training with many different weapons. There were a few huts on the west side of the beach, a dining area at the head land on the east side and in the middle there was a training area and a lecturing place as well.

We landed near the huts and the students came running to meet me and King Arthur. Then Arthur whispered to me and said to go meet Merlin at the beach. I wasn't sure why he wanted me to do this, but I went down to the beach to meet Merlin.
