Is It A Blessing Or A Curse?

Proluge

In this world, magic lies within the blessed or the cursed.

In this tale, you shall see examples of both.

Who am I, you ask?

I'm just a boy with a dream

And magic

I play the violin for money.

So I can feed myself and my sisters

But we all hold a secret

We have powers forbidden from this kingdom

Magic.

"Get a job, kid!" A brute yells as he pushes me to the ground. I sigh as I get up and clean my now muddy violin.

"Huh? You want to know of this story? I'll tell you." I start to play my violin.

"Well, it all started once a war between this and a neighboring kingdom somehow destroyed the kingdom that stood near them, the one i'm from."

"So, they found a conclusion so that there would be no more wars between them, or any other kingdom in this land."

"Marriage between the princess of the other kingdom, who is to be queen in some time, with the prince of this kingdom, who is soon to be king. But it will take years for them to get the title as king and queen."

"Enough backstory. To say it in summary, Prince Arthur and Princess Françoise will have to be married and a treaty has to be signed to stop wars."

"But the only problem is that Prince Arthur dose not want to marry her. You'll see soon enough."

I sat in my seat, listening to my tutor. It was slightly interesting

But also slightly boring.

I hear a knock on the door behind me. My tutor scowled and said "Come in." The doors opened. Gilbert walked in.

Gilbert is a knight who usually gets himself into alot of fights. Wether it was in the war or an unnecessary fight.

He had a letter in his hand.

"An important letter for you." Gilbert said. He didn't even bow or call me prince.

I sigh heavily. "Please tell me it's not for some peasant interaction or another boring meeting with the other kingdom." I muttered.

"It's a letter from the East kingdom. They seem to have agreed with the marriage treaty." Gilbert said.

Marriage? Since when was my father or mother getting-

Wait

They are already married. Just like all of my brothers.

So that leaves me.

"With who?" I ask, trying to keep my cool.

"Princess Françoise Bonnefoy of the East kingdom with Prince Arthur Kirk-" "I know it's me." I cut him off.

Gilbert sighed and put the letter on my desk. Then he left. Well, he should have some manners!

What an attitude. Of course, he was from the east kingdom.

I looked at the note, hoping that I didn't really have to marry her and that Gilbert was just joking again.
