The Legend of the Demon Princess

The Beginning of Raven's life

This story is about Raven Rose. Daughter of the King of the underworld and the Queen of the elves. The time that she was born. There was war everywhere.  The elves and demons were enemies, but somehow, her parents fell in love. When she was born. Her mother was hated for falling in love with her father and was killed. Which broken her father heart. She rarely saw him after that. Only the maids took care of her, but over time, they avoided her and were cruel to her. So she learned how to do everything herself. She had a few people who would sneak her books to learn, but over time, it got too dangerous. Everything was great until she turned 10. Her father started to become more angry toward her. Said she looked like her mother. Every night, he would come home and beat, torture, and sometimes chain her up and starve her. She still has those scars to this day. She tried to escape and found someone who she thought loved her, but he was abusive also to her. She barely got away, but that is a story for a different day. From that day, she was too scared to leave hell. When she turned 18, her father left on a business trip, and she watched over the underworld. It would get pretty boring so she would read anything she could get her hands on and practice her magic. One day, she mustered up the courage to go up to the surface again and explore. Her father forbid her to go up there but never told her why. She was just so curious about what the surface looked like. She never got a good look around since she was focused on finding love. When she got up there she saw the blue sky. It was beautiful but after she saw it a maid saw her and dragged her back down. The maid told her father, and he was furious. She lost count of how many days she was chained and locked up in that hole next to the throne. During that time, she became weak and lost hope. She started to believe that pain is how you show love. The more pain you show a person. The more you love them. When she was let out, she was so weak that she didn't leave the throne for months. A year passed, and she was told her father did not care what she did just as long as she never spoke or looked at him again. She was excited but scared to even leave the underworld. So she ruled over the underworld when her father was gone. One day, when she was sitting on the throne. A man walked up. His appearance didn't look like a demons but his aura said otherwise. He said, "My princess. There is something going on in the forest. Demons came running out, saying people and creatures were disappearing." She was confused but also curious. She asked. "That is very strange, but why are you coming to me. Shouldn't you be going to the king of the surface?" "I did, but he won't act." Said the man. Knowing that her people were also getting hurt, she said to him. " I have no army to command, so why don't we both look into this. Just the two of us." Hesitate the man said. "Ok... What is your name, by the way?" She introduced herself to him. She didn't like the formality, so she just asked him to call her Raven. After she introduced herself, she asked his name. He said, " Call me J. I prefer not to say my real name for personal reasons, but you can call me by my nickname, which is J. She said "Well it's nice to meet you, J." "You as well, Raven." Said J. Knowing of the forest J spoke of and looking at maps of the kingdom when she was bored, she knew just where to go. She said, "Now let's get on with it." She then teleported herself and J to the forest.
