In the mid 1400s, chaos divided Europe into four kingdoms : "Ardimentoso". Despite their splendor, the behavior of narcissistic kings towards their queens stooped lower than squalor. In such dim times, a royal birth, whose personality held the ocean's salty breeze, the humility of sand, and the calm of the waves, promised hope. Princess Marina was born to change the ways of a world. A world, which though is unbeknownst to her, will be revealed when a green-eyed stranger crosses her path. How will things change when she meets people, who share beliefs totally opposite to hers? "Destiny has already chosen her. She has come to change the destiny of this world." Will the prophecy come true? Is this Princess Marina's El Destino? __________________________________________________________________________________ "You don't need to follow me," Marina replied irritadely to Nathan, who continued to follow her.

In fact it's not the best place for any woman," Nathan added seriously. _______________________________________ COVER CREDITS - Niranju98 --Highest rank #9 in historical fiction :) --Featured in the Wattpad Hot list. - Winner of The Purple Apple Awards 2017 in Historical fiction category. - Winner of The Glow Awards 2017 in Historical Fiction Category. - 2nd overall Award winner in the Fruit Awards 2018 - 2nd winner in Eminence Awards 2k17 in historical fiction - 2nd overall award winner in The Car Awards 2017 - 2nd winner in Ohana Awards 2018 in historical fiction category - 3rd place in The Summer Awards 2017 in the Historical fiction category. - Honorable mention in the Hopeful Award 2017 - Honorable mention I'm The Golden Award 2017 in the historical fiction category.

Poems of the side where no one sees behind a smile. I write this based on my daily mood so this ranges from love to friend or even the stranger that I saw on the day I write the poem.

"The whispering waves were tipped with white that turned gold in the sinking sun, and black silhouettes of birds cartwheeled through the sky." It started as an evening walk on the beach, children playing in the salty sand. But one girl's vivid imagination alters the peace, and panic begins to set in...
