A 'young girl' 17, adopted by a wealthy married couple and she has a huge secret -- she's immortal -- she lived longer than Zeno, been alone before King HIryuu descended upon the mortal realm. At present time, she's Princess Yona's best friend. She...
Darkness...it's all I could see when I opened my eyes. I knew I wasn't standing at the Palace anymore, it felt strange but I wasn't scared and for some reason, I was calm about standing in this endless darkness. I look around wondering if I'm in some kind of dreamscape or something.
"Not quite Lady Miaka. We are inside your mind."
I gasp whirled around hearing that same female voice calling out to me. And the voice was a lady and she was so beautiful, she looked so graceful. {The image of the lady is below, the image doesn't belong to me! I found it on Pinterest.}

"You...you're that voice was calling out to me. Why am I here?"
I needed answers, and I felt like she could give them.
"...I'm sorry. This was the only way I can talk to you. The messages I sent to you kept getting blocked, so my apologies for causing you pain."
I perked up "So it was you! But why? And WHO are you?"
Her beautiful face saddened at the mention "You must find the High Priest, Lady Miaka. He will point you the way to the Temple. There's not much time I'm afraid."
"Find a High Priest...?" I scrunch up my face a bit thinking, then I remembered the only High Priest I knew. "Do you mean Ik-Soo?"
She nods "Correct. And you must hurry. I'll show myself to you and the two Dragon Warriors you bring, and I'll explain everything...I'm also sorry for causing you pain when I send you those messages...'he's' been trying to stop me from contacting you. He knows...so that's why you must hurry."
Frowning, I slowly nodded, understanding most of what she told me.
"I forgive you...but what should I call you?"
She smiles gently "For now, you can call me 'Nex'. Now wake up my Maiden."
My eyes snap open, to see a ceiling and someone holding me tightly and...sniffling. I look down eyes softened seeing my sweet Yellow Dragon sniffling with his eyes closed, his face buried in my chest. I carefully move my arms, placing one hand on his back, and the other hand behind his messy blond hair causing him to freeze up.
"Why are you crying, Sunshine?" I spoke softly stroking his blond hair.
He lifts his head with tears sliding down his cheeks, I move the hand behind his back and place it on his cheek stroking my thumb against his cheek to wipe the tears from his face.
"Y-you're awake!" He whimpered and buried his face back against my chest.
"Zeno.... Please, forgive me for scaring you. It's never my attention." I place both hands behind his head.
