Once apon a time (can't spell uwu)

There was a kingdom,practically perfect in most standards and should logically be the most beautiful and visited kingdom in all the land!

...except  for one problem.....

The lovely kingdom was being terrorized by a horrid  monster known only as the dragon witch who in a show of strength killed one of the twin princes .The king and queen, in an attempt to save there fair kingdom,put out a call to arms for''anyone who can defeat the monstrous dragon witch will be paid in a large some as well as any charges for illegal activity dropped.''and so this lead to many people,thieves, common citizens and knights looking for glory set out.

Thousands tried and thousands failed, some escaping with broken bones and burn scars.

others weren't so lucky...  

But the people kept coming.

And that brings us to the present where Virgil ,a young thief who though always plagued with anxious tenancies  always lacked common sense ,was against his better judgement climbing the rickety tower the dragon witch called home.The young lad was severely lacking in funds and had a few "misdemeanors''(a fancy term for robberies) on his track record and this was the best idea he could come up with.

He was never the creative type.

Or particularly skilled in combat.

Or agile .

or smart.

As you can probably tell this was a very bad idea .

I mean, climbing the tower of a beast notorious for destroying their foes on battle completely unarmed sounds crazy! And yet,he climbed on.He had a nagging felling that he should do this,that he needed to do this.

But apparently mother nature disagreed .A swirling storm of an oddly bright hue had sprung up mid climb making the trek muck more difficult than necessary.

When the storm really bean to pick up our nervous protagonist was almost at the window sill so he wasn't in it for more than a few minutes .With an exhausted huff he pulled himself up onto the window sill,collapsing into a tiered heap.

Now ,finally having a chance to catch his breath he turned around to face the window he had just climbed through.The clouds outside were a stunning array of reds and yellows swirling together to form a beautiful but unsettling skyline.

''It's beautiful.''Virgil said in a breathy whisper,in awe of the sight before him.












''....I'm glad you like it.''








So what do you guys think?I will definitely be making a part two and I might even make it a full book!I really appreciate feedback and would love to hear you advice!Just a note though it will eventually contain more mature themes and some less than great parents so just a heads up before you get too invested.
