Everyone fears a prophecy to come true. A prophecy that foretells a terrible end once darkness prevail. The girl that the gods and goddesses had chosen is the only one who can prevent their dreaded end. But the price of the freedom and peace that everyone wants is her own life. Is she willing to sacrifice her own life for the sake of those she loves and those who depends on her? Or will she just choose to live a normal life away from the world where she really belongs to? Will she run away from her fate or will she bravely face it and wholeheartedly accept the price of the freedom and peace that everyone longs for?
Chapter 1 PROLOGUE
“Sorry to interrupt you‚ King Uriel‚ Queen Alora‚ but someone wants to talk to the both of you‚” said by one of the palace’s trusted servants while bowing down.
“Let him in‚” the king answered in a baritone voice who was now sitting on the throne with his beloved queen next to him.
After a few moments, a woman wearing a white cape appeared in front of the king and queen. The woman was wearing a white cloak with a hood covering her face while bowing her head to show her respect.
The queen suddenly stood up at the sight and immediately asked. “What can we do for you‚ sibyl?” the queen asked gently and politely to the woman she called sibyl.
The one who was called sibyl immediately looked up and announced her purpose in visiting the king and queen.
“I have come to tell what was stated in the prophecy‚” the sibyl said in a very beautiful voice that anyone would be attracted and obsessed with.
“What does the prophecy say?” the king asked with a frown.
For a long time‚ it was only now that they heard a news about the prophecy so the king reacted that way. Unbeknown to them‚ someone was secretly listening to them while hidden in a corner without them realizing it.
Suddenly the sibyl’s body lit up and at the same time‚ her eyes changed color—from gray to pure white with a dazzling light.
“A princess will be born
She is destined to rule the world
She is very powerful
More than anyone in this world.
Because of her extraordinary power‚
Envy and anger will live
In the heart of every being
That belongs to this world.
The power that she possessed‚
Will be a threat to her life
And will cause chaos
Throughout the kingdom.
The princess needs to be treasured
She must not fall into the hands of evil
So that the horrible end doesn’t happen,” said the sibyl in a horrible voice. Her soothing voice is now untraceable. It seems like that she has become a different person while stating what was written in the prophecy.
After the sibyl said the content of the prophecy, the color of her eyes returned to normal. The light that enveloped her whole body has also disappeared.
“What do you mean?” asked the confused queen who was overwhelmed with anxiety and fear because of what might happen to their beloved kingdom.
“You must protect and take good care of your future child so that the end can be avoided‚” the sibyl warned the queen.
What the queen heard made her even more afraid.
“But pay more attention to the one who needed it so that anger and envy can be avoided and so it would not become the cause of chaos‚” the sibyl added.
The queen was about to ask more because she didn’t fully understand what the sibyl said but the sibyl’s body gradually turned into white butterflies and the butterflies quickly flew away.
Because of what the sibyl said, the queen immediately held her belly where their future heir was contained. Then the queen weakly sat on the throne and her face showed fear for their future child who would be born in the next few days.
“No... This is not possible‚” the queen said‚ trembling.
The king immediately approached his wife and hugged her tightly to comfort her. But because of what the king did, the one who had been watching them became angry because of jealousy and hatred.
“Don’t worry‚ my dear queen. We will never let our little princess be on the brink of death‚” said the king and tenderly kissed his wife on the forehead who still couldn’t believe what she heard from the sibyl.
The one who had been watching the king and queen could no longer bear the scenario she was seeing. So she decided to leave and go to a place that no one else knows to carry out her plan.
