Soooo......I'm crap at descriptions, and this isn't actually a coherent story with a plot yet, but I really wanted to post it anyways. It's a scene that just popped into my head today, based off an idea I've had bouncing around for a while, where witches have spells tattooed onto their bodies so that they can be cast instantaneously. It isn't easy to use them, though, so very few people have them.
This particular scene is a sort of fluffy/maybe not completely coherent, where a boy realizes that the girl he loves is hiding more than he could have expected.
If anyone actually reads this I will be so shocked, but feedback would be appreciated. (Both characters do have names, I just didn't feel like hers worked if I introduced it here.) I've got some ideas for the rest of (and beginning) of this story, and have a few more ideas bouncing around concerning this world of mine, and hope to revisit it pretty soon!
Noor, a dancer in the Royal Court of the Al-Yauzhan Empire wants nothing more than to pay off her debts and lead a nice, simple life-but a chance encounter with the crown prince and his brother brings her into the dangerous world of court politics. As Noor and the princes investigate their uncle and cousin's possible treason, she grows closer to the crown prince, but in order to save the kingdom and the person she loves, Noor will have to risk everything...
A romantic adventure set in an imagined Arabic kingdom, THE DANCING GIRL is a story of court intrigues, romantic entanglements, and secret meetings as Noor and her best friend Amir try to help the princes they're falling for expose corrupt court officials with plans to seize the throne. Noor and Amir are close to having everything they've ever dreamed of...now all they need to do is survive.
