Curse of Two Fates

Ambria or home

Sitting on the couch in front of Solaris , Selena rubbed her temples taking steady breaths to calm her anxious mind as she listened to him briefly explain when, where and how he found her. 

Solaris sat back taking a sip of his wine. "So basically, you are thousands of years old. still 18... no parents or people you know... and your telling me all of this happened over a witch with a grudge?" he asked and she sat up sighing heavily. 

"Well what do you assume happened. I told you everything I remember before i woke up and saw you. " She said and sat back smirking. "And your telling me, all this." She said motioning to him. "is the only heir to a  whole empire.... it will fall sooner then lay in peace."

Solaris smirk. "Well see... my parents are here." he said and glanced at the door as it opened.

Selena looked over at the door as Roland and Carmine walked in. Carmine looked over at Selena and raised and eyebrow as Selena's eyes widen. " oh...god of life bless..."

Roland stopped and met Selena's bow, "God of death, bless me where I stand and to not harm those I  have forsaken." She mused in a low respectful voice. 

Carmine looked at Solaris who sighed deeply. "This is my mother. Carmine, princess to the kingdom of gold and empress of Ambria. and next to her is the vampire of valor and emperor of the southern isle, king of darkness, and of Ambria."

Selena only bowed to her knees, "Please forgive my rudeness among the gods." she said and Roland sighed and stepped in front of her. 

"Why do you bow as if you have seen death."

"Death stand in front of me, I vowed to love and protect it as i will life. As my forefathers did before me." She said softly.

Carmine watched closely and watched as Roland place his hand on her head. "My dear child of light, Saintess,  if the crescent isles and protector of death. Death accepts you now raise comfortably."

Selena raised, looking at him with as much respect as a mortal would a god. "My lord, please accept my gratitude."

Roland bowed his head slightly. "Princess... I believe you have mistaken me for some other. "

Selena frowned. "Raven hair as black as the night sky, Eyes that bleed the golden amber of last breaths and power as black as death its self... no one foretold your appearance with an greater accuracy." 

Roland smirked and tipped his head. "The gift of death was given many years after your imprisonment, princess.... I am deaths gift to the world you all saw. Deaths child rules over land which were once pledged by war." he said lowly. 

 Selena looked up at him and then to Carmine, "You have taken the privilege of a wife..."

Roland nodded. "Life's gift to the world. A child holding power of light much like your self. though every different. a direct descendant."

Solaris stood watching, waiting as he saw Selina's eyes turn to him. Her lips thinning as she looked down. "So The child of power born once every thousand years...."

Carmine sighed faintly and gently took her hand. "Child, two existing in one place is a miracle... as you both are..."

Solaris frowned. "What do you mean... child of power."

Roland closed the door. "Listen closely...-

"Once in a thousand years. born on an eclipse, a child of power will be born to change the tides of the world. both equally strong in life and in death. mastering both as his will." Roland said and sat down.
