The Duchesses
Aurora opens her eyes only to feel the agonising pain in her body. That is to be expected when there has been an accident. It's excruciatingly painful. Aurora groans in pain and pulls off the blanket, taking in her surroundings. It is more appropriate for a hospital interior design to look to the mediaeval era. Not shabby, but more on the extravagant side. The nurses' attire, on the other hand, appears odd. Someone said out of nowhere, "Her Grace, please wake up! Call the doctor right away!" Aurora approaches the mirror and looks at the woman with deep red eyes in it. The woman had blonde hair that, while a little messy, flowed perfectly over her shoulder. Her fair complexion lends her an ethereal appearance. Not to mention that her outfits make her look like a noblewoman from a historical series. She pinches herself, only to realise that the blonde woman staring at her is herself. A thought struck her mind, as she utters her first statement in this world, "Fuck me". Medea has finished her work, but she is still unsure how to fix all of the messes. She hasn't been herself in a long time, and it's bothering her. The throne seems so far away, and the weight of the burden grows heavier with each passing day. A letter from the Imperial Palace has arrived, instructing the Duchess to look after the House of Smith's Duchess of Light, Natalie Wilson Smith. As an evil scheme was about to unfold, she smiled wickedly. 'This is my new card.' p/s: I can't find the original owner of the photo of the cover, if you know or you are the owner of the cover.

Whispers of Fate
In the realm of Ardiel, where dusk painted the skies in blood and the rivers carried the weight of forgotten oaths, a prophecy was spoken. Its words were not written, yet they lingered in stone and shadow, whispered from mouth to mouth until even kings listened in silence. It spoke of four souls bound together. Two pairs, their fates entwined like threads of a single tapestry-woven from love and ambition, from loyalty and betrayal. Which threads would hold, and which would tear, none could say. One was a maiden of noble grace, a daughter of House Danford, fierce in spirit though gentle in heart. The prophecy tied her path to a prince, heir to Vandestine's throne. Together, they would stand against the storm. Some swore their love would endure, brighter than the sun. Others whispered that even the sun must one day fall. The second was a crown princess of fire and steel, heir to Eyaelyr's empire. By her side, the son of a northern duke, bold and unyielding. Their passion was said to blaze like a tempest, fierce enough to shake kingdoms. Yet passion cuts both ways-what burns brightly can also consume. The prophecy spoke of betrayal, sharp as winter's knife, but gave no name to the betrayer, nor the betrayed. Thus was the riddle left: two loves bound by fate, one to flourish, the other to fall. But which would rise to joy, and which to ruin, only time would reveal. Until then, the kingdoms would wait-and tremble-for the day the prophecy chose to speak in truth. *Disclaimer* This is a work of fiction. Therefore, all the characters' names, places, and some thing are just made up. First story btw.
