“Your highness, what dress would you be wearing?” Nora asked as she opened the wardrobe. The wardrobe had different types of dresses in a variety of colors. They were dresses made by Jolene Avilon, the best designer in the Empire. each of her works is sought after by all the noble ladies in the capital. Any noble lady that wears an Avilon product is respected in high society. But not anyone can wear them because a dress in avilon cost one million Veru (Gold). Which is higher than the amount of money some nobles earn from their territory in a year. Only someone from the royal, Dukes', and marquess families could afford them. Nora could not help but stare at the dresses. Helena looks at the dresses while she was in the bathtub. “Hmmm… pick the white plain one.” She said. Helena’s words snapped Nora out of her greedy thoughts. “Ah… yes, the white one. Hmmm…, your Highness, this dress does not have any jewelry on it. Are you sure you want to wear this?” Nora asked with a concerned tone
Valkyrie Garden“Huff… Huff… Huff. I think am… going to die if I keep running…Huff. System. how much time do I have left?” Helena asked while running in the garden. She was exhausted and sweating, and her beautiful white dress was no longer white, it had brown and green stains on it. Helena thought the mission she got from the system was a newbie mission and it would be easy to complete, but she underestimated the mission.*Ding! *System Notification!XThe host has three more minutes until the mission is complete.“Huff… I can do this!!” Helena yelled. This was her second attempt at completing the mission. Who would have thought that the mission had a hidden condition. and it was a ridiculous one at that.------Thirty minutes ago, ------“Your highness I don’t think, it’s a good idea to run in the garden. Wha… what if you fall while you running and hurt yourself? I wouldn’t know what to say to the Head maid if you got hurt.” Nora complained. Nora was afraid that if the princess got
Valkyrie garden“Woah… an angel.” Helena was surprised at how beautiful the child in front of her was. She had long, flowing silver hair, red eyes, and naturally beautiful long eyelashes. The girl lay on the ground with the back of her left hand touching her forehead. “Pffft…” Helena smiled while staring at her because she reminded her of the princess in movies she had watched in her previous life.While the girls’ beauty fascinated Helena, the redhead maid walks up to Helena with an angry face. She raised her left hand and swung it to slap Helena but was interrupted by Nora, who jumped in front of Helena and block the maid’s hand.“Get out of the way, Nora.” She said.Nora ignored her and looked at Helena. “Your highness, are you alright?” She asked in a worried tone.Nora's actions surprised Helena. Even after I said all those mean things to you, you still tried to protect me. I Am so sorry, Nora. Helena thought in her mind while she stared at Nora, who was concerned about her. Thou
Two days laterHelena’s roomIt’s been two days since the incident in the garden. And Helena had learned a lot in those two days. She learnt the truth about her eye color, and why she was called a slave because of them.-------- flashback--------Gaia Forest. A massive forest that is located in the Western part of the continent. It shares borders with the North and South Empires. It’s also the home of the most beautiful creatures in the world. Elves. Known as the longest-living race, they have a similar body structure to humans, but with distinctive features.They possess longer ears and beautiful purple eyes that shone like diamonds. They are also a race of warriors who protect Gaia. The mother tree, in the center of the forest, gives the Elves tremendous power, which they use to create a barrier that protects the forests from intruders. But it did not stop the elves from going out, which meant once they left the forest, they had no hope of coming back. Therefore, a rule which preve

—------------ Three months later—---------------Giggadon empireRoyal palaceThe Seventh moon had dawned on the Giggadon empire. Bringing about cold and snow, Winter had begun.Inside the council hall, stood a large circular stone table in the middle of the room. It was crafted out of the most precious obsidian stones found in the empire, by the best stonemasons. The chairs that circled the table were made of fine mahogany wood, but one chair looked different from the rest. It’s made with cider wood; its rails were dyed gold, and the slip seat and splat had the royal family logo designed on them.At the four corners of the council hall, stood large pillars that had one beast claw sticking out of each of them. The claws held a round crystal that produced light. And lastly, in the middle of the hall above the table was a statue of a beast with large wings, sharp claws, and fire spewing out of its mouth. It was carved into the ceiling by the best stonemasons at the first emperor’s order
Giggadon empireThrone room.*Bang! *The large golden-colored doors shut behind Ralphye, after he enters the throne room. In front of him stood a dozen knights clad in silver armor. They stood beside the pillars, in pairs with their hands on the hilt of their swords.Ralphye could feel that if he made any sudden moves, they would cut him down in the blink of an eye. He started walking down the middle of the hall toward the throne, but as he got closer, he felt the surrounding air change. It felt dry and suffocating. Breathing had become difficult for him, and his heart began beating rapidly.What’s happening to me? I feel like I could die if I continue forward. Maybe I should turn back now before it is too late. Ralphye thought in panic. He tried turning back, but his body wouldn’t listen. His legs continued forward without his control.After arriving at the steps leading to the throne, he regained control. Causing him to fall on his knees. He tried standing up, but there was no resp
Giggadon empire.Valkyrie palace.Outside Helena's room*Knock* *knock*Nora knocks on the door while nervously standing silently, waiting for a reply. She received a sudden summons in the evening after she had finished attending to princess Helena. Nobody told her who summoned her. She was just instructed by a knight to go to the room at the end of the third floor.Valkyrie palace is divided into three floors. The first floor is where the maids, servants, and cooks sleep. The kitchen and storages are also on the first floor. The second floor is where the princesses bed chambers are. And the third floor is where the emperor’s mistresses live.A few minutes passed by, and there was no response. Nora wanted to knock again but stopped. If I knock on the door, for a second time, wouldn’t I come off rude… yeah, I can wait a few minutes. She thought.A few minutes passed by, but there was still no response. Nora gathered her courage and knocked on the door once again.*Knock* *Knock* *Knock
