"How much do you weigh?" I blurt out as I drag Erica's body towards the elf kingdom. It wasn't my intention to make her unconscious but I couldn't risk the location of the kingdom to a stranger even if she literally just saved my life.
She has long, silky, white hair that compliments her fair skin and her blue eyes that glowed brighter when she used her powers. Kinda like when I use my powers my eyes glow bright green. It's a normal trait to all those who have power in them.
Being brought up as a princess and future ruler of the Elf realm, I had to learn everything about all the four realms including their their kind. I also had to learn how to defend myself and I was trained harder than any other by the best warriors as per my mother's orders. Again I was supposed to behave like a princess and wasn't allowed to do some things like cussing apparently it's not "appropriate" for a princess. It also meant I had no friends since I was always secluded from the rest of the world.

I was actually on one of my usual seek-outs, when I met Erica. She looked so frail and broken I almost felt sorry for her. But then she is the most sassy and stubborn person I've ever met. She's the only person who makes me want to cuss so bad even though I can't. Which makes me wonder what happened to her that makes her so defensive. How did she even get to the human realm though she is the princess of the witch realm who bears the mark of the goddess and knows nothing of who or what she is.

All I know is that when the evil queen attacked the realms Erica was about to be born but her mother, the witch queen, fled for their safety while the king stayed to protect the kingdom but he was killed by the evil queen. I myself was just five years old and my sister Etana was just two years old. Our mother used all the power she had cloak our realm from the evil queens reach. In doing so she lost all of her powers and along with it, her heart.

My mother queen Elvira was known for being compassionate due to her connection to nature which was part of her powers. My father, King Oliver, loved her and us to bits. He used to read to Etana and I every night as our mother tucked us in. They would then kiss our forehead good night then head to their quarters.

I was the quiet and smart one but my sister was sweet, bubbly and gullible one. Everyone adored us, people would greet us everywhere we went especially on one of our usual adventures around the castle grounds. We used to discover new passageways every day and we had our own map made by crayons and glitter.

Our dad gave us jade necklaces that matched our eyes that we inherited from him. Though he had brown curly hair we had our mom's wavy blonde hair and slightly tan skin. He said that every time we were in trouble we could hold our necklaces and remember our family because family keeps us safe and give us strength.

This was just a week before he left to join in the war against the evil queen together with the Kings of the other realms leaving mom and us behind to protect the realm. "Keep your sister and the people safe for me little queen and remember family gives you strength" he said. That was the last time we saw him.

Ever since then mom changed and became a cold hearted b****. Her heart died with him that day. She was no longer my mother but she was the queen of Elf realm. So I stopped adrressing her as mother but as queen. The queen made me and Etana her puppets

She made us practice our skills every day. I was good in both swordsmanship and archery but I preferred archery in the battlefield Etana on the other hand though we both have the same powers she had a deeper connection to hers and so were trained separately she practiced art of battle magic with the priestess and I weaponry with the generals. We hardly meet since then but when we do we make the most out of it.

Our powers allowed us to to manipulate nature, plants and animals, but since we were of royal blood we could bend the earth to any form we wished just like our mom used to. Ever since I had them when I was sixteen I understood how she must have felt to lose them but it still doesn't justify her behavior. We were grieving our father just as she was her husband.

Anyway, I dragged Ericka to front of the palace and ordered some of the maids to take her to one of the palace guest quarters and prepare her to meet the queen. I myself readied to meet the queen first and explain the situation before she meets Erica. Etana on the other hand and would be ecstatic to meet someone of her age that isn't an elf. It has been a while since anyone from the other realms have been here. The ones that have were either by mistake or are one of the survivors from the war we rescued.

But the most rare are the goblins, no one has heard or seen them since the war. We assume that the evil queen killed them all during the war. The human realm was enslaved and evil queen now rules the witch realm probably since it's the most potent realm that united all realms to form Mysteria
