A/N: Hey guys! The lullaby Edaline sang to Sophie is up there. I think it's really sweet.
17th October 2024 : 1:30 p.m.
Sophie walked to the Neverseen's base in Lumenaria. It's funny, how these elves didn't notice something bad sitting right in front of them in their own capital. She blindly walked to the most sad sight on earth. The remains of Oblivimyre, the place where Councillor Kenric died.
But, Sophie didn't remember this stuff. She remembered nothing about her previous life. Only the one she was about to begin.
17th October : 2:15 a.m.
Sophie walked to the other side of the Beor mountains. They were far beyond Oblivimyre, but yet, their beauty was breath taking!
The long pines along the sides of the mountain were huge and supplied enough oxygen and shade to make it the most peaceful place on earth. On the right side, a stream of water poured down to supply water to Lumenaria. The Persian-blue sky was cloudless and it was one place she felt was perfect to destroy. But, hey! She had to wait for orders.
She continued down her path and finally reached her destination after a good 15 minutes. She took a deep breath and whispered:
Project Take-over.
The rock guarding the cave beyond rumbled and slid, revealing pitch darkness. She slipped inside the cave silently. She walked for at least two miles before she reached a metal door.
She whispered the secret pass-code again and walked inside.
Why did the Neverseen have to make everything so tricky???
She walked through the door to enter a dark, bleak room. It was almost as cold as Brant's house. Almost. The floor was cold and there was only one chair in the room. And it had leather straps tied to it. This was weer they torture people for information.
"You made it." A voice said from behind Sophie. "Now it's time to put the elixir to work."
Lady Gisela stepped out from the shadows with Alvar and Ruy at her tail.
"Please, sit." Lady Gisela's kind voice startled her. Never the less, she sat on the torturing chair and did not struggle when Alvar and Ruy strapped her in.
Lady Gisela held out a glass bottle with a crystal stopper. The green-orange liquid slish-sloshing in the container made her want to puke. But, she followed her orders and drank. She shivered as the ice-cold liquid dripped down her throat.
Then, right then, began her new life.
18th October : Lumenaria : 4:00 p.m.
Keefe walked the path of doom and destruction with his friends. All except Sophie. His true love. His Juliet. The other half of his broken heart. But, she liked Fitz. Eh. It's okay. He's so hot, he'll find someone else.
As he walked the yellow road to the court house of Lumenaria, he heard murmurs of an important announcement the council was going to make.
Huh? What announcement? Shouldn't we have gotten a scroll?
He didn't voice his questions as he stopped in front of the huge steps of the court house.
An entire crowd had formed in front of the shimmering councillors as they appeared.
"Good afternoon, all. This announcement is very spontaneous to us and hence, we had to agree. The new heir for the throne of the Lost Cities is Sophie Elizabeth Foster!" Councillor Emery boomed.
As the news broke out everyone gasped. But Keefe. Keefe knew this was his mother's doing.
As Sophie came out for her speech, Keefe grumbled. Why was it always Sophie?
"Thank you. I pledge my allegiance to the Lost Cities. I will always bring peace and see fit for my kingdom. And I pledge to always seek assistance from my advisors, Lady Gisela Sencen and Lady Vespera Folend. Thank you." She exited the stage and everyone murmured their disagreements.
But, Keefe took a vow. He would get Sophie back. Meanwhile, his friends were getting hauled away with guards because they were part of the Black Swan.
Wait, what??!!!
