Long ago during a time of despair and destruction, a time when it seemed humanity was on the brink of extinction by demons.
We don't know where they came from or who brought them, all we knew was that they wanted to destroy us and possibly rule the kingdom.
Everywhere you turned there was fire, houses destroyed and people killed, it was like we were brought to hell or hell was brought to us.
At first, glanced it seemed we could not be saved and that no one was coming to help. But during that darkness lights came through. Two wizards managed to save us all and defeated the demons.
They were soon known as the 'Wizard King' and the 'Phoenix Empress'.
Their act of bravery earned them the respect of all people and was even granted a place to stay at the castle.
Statues were made to honor them and heroic stories were told about them. Some stories even say that they were madly in love and decided to marry in secret, they say that the two wizards could not bear to be apart from one another. And wherever one goes the other was always by their side.
"Eww, love. Yuck!" One child said interrupting Sister Agnes from telling more of the story.
"Ew, love? What's so wrong with it, Akane?" Sister Agnes asked the small child.
"It sounds gross, and what's the point of it anyways?" Akane asked her.
"What do you mean? Love is the most amazing thing in the world!" Another child said dreamily.
Akane just looked at the other girl with a scrunched-up nose and proceeded to make gagging noises. "Akane stop that." Sister Agnes laugh slightly and lightly wacked Akane on the head.
"Ow, I came to hear to listen about magic not get hit on the head." Akane pouted rubbing her head.
"Well, you stayed and listen anyways, but it has gotten quite late; time for bed everyone." Sister Agnes told them receiving a chorus of groans and complaints.
"Uh, uh, no complaints. Now come on everyone to their rooms." Sister Ana told them, walking into the living room.
The children sighed but made their way to bed anyways.
"Come on Akane, let's go." Sister Agnes told her holding out her hand. Akane grabs Sister Agnes's hand and makes their way to her room.
"You never answered my question, Sister Agnes," Akane says and climbs into her bed. "Oh, I didn't? What was your question?" Sister Agnes asked as she tucks Akane into bed.
"What's the point of love?" Akane yawns.
"The point of love, huh?"
"Mhm," Akane responds tiredly.
"Well, love can make you very happy, and fill you with this warm feeling that never goes away." Sister Agnes started to say.
"A feeling that never goes away? So, like a disease?" Akane asked in confusion.
"No, it's not a disease at all. All I can say is that love is like magic." Sister Agnes tells her.
"Like magic?" Akane asks.
"Yeah, love might be one of the most powerful magic in all of Clover kingdom, maybe even the whole world." Sister Agnes tells her softly.
"Love..? The most powerful magic in the world...?" Akane asks slowly being consumed by sleep.
"Yeah, the most powerful. Goodnight Akane." Sister Agnes says and kisses her on the forehead.
"Goodnight.." Akane whispers and drifts off to sleep.
