The Prophecy of the Moon

Chapter 1 - The Prince's Arrival

Third Person's POV

*Somewhere inside the castle of the Kingdom of Miroh // Year 18xx*

"The second child of the king and queen was prophesied to be a boy. The almighty moon said in its prophecy that the queen will give birth to their second son when it shows its rare full moon form. He only shows that form once every 300 years." The prime minister said as he sipped on the tea that was served minutes ago by one of the castle maids.

"Isn't the almighty's full moon form supposed to appear tonight? I saw the calendar made by the kingdom priests. Based on what you just said, tonight will be the night that Queen Margaret gives birth to our savior. I'm getting kinda excited! I wonder what he'll be like when he grows up." One of the kingdom's sorceress said. She then signaled one of the maids to come and give her tea.

The Kingdom of Miroh is known for its high-quality spices, herbs, and ingredients. It was said that out of all the 9 kingdoms across the world, the Kingdom of Miroh has the best food. Most travelers' top resting place is the Kingdom of Miroh.

Minutes later, the hall became crowded as the kingdom's nobles and officials gathered. They are all waiting for the announcement of a successful delivery of the queen. Just like what the sorceress and the prime minister said, the almighty moon prophesied that the child to defeat the demon lord will come to life tonight.

*In the bedroom of King Alfred III and Queen Margaret *

"I mean, it's pretty impossible for the Queen to give birth if her stomach isn't big at all. It's like she's not pregnant. I confirmed it 9 months ago that the Queen is pregnant, but why isn't her stomach bulging even an inch?" The castle doctor, and a good friend of the King, said in disbelief. He's preparing all the equipment he'll need to deliver the prophesied prince safely regardless of how he feels.

"I understand why you're saying that. But I think at times like this, it's better to just trust the prophecy of the almighty moon." Said King Alfred III as he looked at her wife's eyes, and flashed a smile at her like he's letting her wife know that everything will be alright.

"My Love, please don't leave my side for the rest of the night." Queen Margaret nervously said. She's been having a lot of sleepless nights because the same thought as the castle doctor has been bugging her mind for months now. She then held his husband's hands tight.

"I won't. I'll always be here." The king replied as he kissed the queen's forehead.

The queen signaled the maid who's carrying the first prince to come.

"I also want to be with our beloved Seungmin." She said as she caressed Seungmin's soft and fluffy cheeks.

The 1-year-old prince woke up and giggled. The king carried the first prince and kissed him on the cheeks.

"Did your mother wake you up, my Son?" The king said as everybody in the room laughed in unison because of the adorable first Prince's actions.
