Imagine this, you are living in a world full of magical beasts, assassins, and wars, but the only thing that matters to the King and Queen is who their daughter marries. Imagine that you have fallen in love with the princess, but it doesn't matter. Imagine that you have been threatened by the king himself.
This is what has happened to Andrew. He is a peasant, a blacksmith, but he has a secret. He is an adventurer also, so he sets out for months at a time, hoping to collect artifacts that could bring his family out of poverty. On one of his quests, he met Princess Delilah. Unknowingly, he began to gain a love interest for her. One that was so strong that he couldn't keep her off of his mind. Delilah confessed to having an attraction towards Andrew, but once he discovered that she was royalty, he knew his chances were just up in smoke, or are they?

The Lost Life of Laraine
She lead a rather tragic life. The black sheep of her family due to her lack of affinity for fire. Her affinity was quite the opposite. Water in fact. Already in a time when women did not really have much political power or rights, she was outcasted by her family despite being of nobility. Still allowed to live in the distant west wing of the massive Grand Duke's manor, she has never eaten a single meal with her family nor extended family, and has spent her loneliness in her books and sword lessons. Although only taught by the head butler and one of the low ranked knights of the family, she was quite bright and if her family would have given her a chance she would have done great things. If only she didn't die at such a young age. Married off to some "hero" of sort that had slayed the Dragon of the North who was terrorizing the land and threatened the kingdom, this hero also had an affinity for fire and held her in disdain like the rest of her family. Suddenly a girl of another world was transported to their world, picked up by this hero and put into his secure care. The pair soon fell for each other despite the hero's marriage, and many believed Laraine got jealous of this girl of mystery, and tried to kill her. This was definitely not true. But because the girl was favored by the temple and kingdom Laraine was quickly arrested and put on trial. You can probably tell what happened to Laraine. But something strange happened the day of her execution. As soon as her decapitated head hit the ground the sky turned blood red and it began to rain fire. No one survived that day. But for some reason time went back, and Laraine was back to being a child, but with no memory of her future. There were select few in her life, however, that remembered her tragedy and now perhaps will take action to prevent it. NOTE: I'M AWARE THERE ARE A LOT OF INCONSISTENCIES. IT WILL BE EDITED SOME DAY BUT RIGHT NOW I'M JUST TRYING TO FINISH IT.
