The True Nature

As the night drew on, the queen dismissed the dinner, in a fluent motion, for the guards to remove every one from the room, talkin somehow made it past the gurards sweep, the queen walked through the empty room looking at all that she had gained in her royalty. "your majesty? A soft child’s voice took her by surprise, of course she knew it was talkin, but she had expecting the head of of her royal guards voice. She whipped her head around to see talkin sitting at the head of the table eating an apple from one of the many fruit baskets that adorned the dining room walls. Talkin? I thought I had dismissed my entire court. "you did my lady, but I had a vision on my way to bed" Suddenly interested, she sprinted fourth, and took a chair to his immediate left. What did you see? "life my lady, life extinguished, I watched there life go behind the veil of death, there lives were ended by your hand.. your hand my lady," LIES, lies I have never killed any one, not a soul. "my la" SILENCE cried the queen! Sh-la- rminton. The spell flew from the queens lips like poison, the rush of power exploded from her fingers like an icy dagger.

　

Startled by the sudden use of power, talkin fell to the ground, bound by heavy black ropes. "NOW, talkin I have always cherished your visions, and never have I doubted them, but this is impossible, me murdering people? Talkin sat struggling against the bonds that held him in place. In a snap of a finger she unbound him, and he laid there gasping for air.. you have five seconds to tell me why the spirits are showing you such ludicrous visions.

"my lady, the visions, are not so farfetched as you might think, as you know the war that is raging across the land, will reach your palace walls before long, and blood will be shed. "I will tell you as I have told my council, there will be no blood shed at my hand, the war may be fault, but I will do everything I can do to stop it, to stop any drop of blood being spilt by any one. Your majesty you can not solve everything with words, sometimes you must use force to your meaning across. Those are the days of the old, talkin, before mankind was civilized. "your majesty I have doubts that civilization has changed as much, as it was back when I was younger, people are still violent, you just choose not to see because you live a protected life in the palace, but if you were to go fourth into the real world, you would see cruelty and unreasoning.

　

"Talkin, you are a mere child, Said the queen hoping to get more of the strange boys past." Appearances can be deceiving my lady, for you yourself should know things are not always what they seem. And with that, talkin, threw the apple down, and walked towards the door. Without a second thought, the queen called for the guards to summon her oldest and most trusted advisor, Allana, ever since the beginning days allana had been there with her, giving her steady advice.. she knew allana’s past, she had grown up, in cronchelle, had a very average child hood, until the first elf war, Forcing both of her parents "magicians" into a war of life and death.. Leaving allana in the care of her grandmother, even back then so the queen had been told, she had considerable amounts of magic.. during the years, she had grown to become very well known, with her defeat of dark magics, and finding the cure to dark fever, she was also known to be a peace bringer..

But those had been the old days, these are the new days the queen thought to herself, not even allana could bring peace to the northern elf colonies, there was a knock at the door, "enter the queen said" Gathering her robes about her, the queen stood, Allana entered the dinning room, in a black dressing gown, with her white hair tied in a ponytail.. Seeing her you would believe she was very sick with age, but allana could still wield her sword, and her magic.. "lady sarenth" allana, you’re here, good I need your council, yes my lady, "Talkin tells me that the spirits have showed him a vision, of people" People my lady? I don’t understand.. "dead people, people who have died because I killed them. I have long feared that you would be the one.. What?! Asked the queen, fear welling up inside her. "there was a prophecy long ago, by a traveling gypsy, she was of course a fraud, but it was said that she did have real visions, and in one of her visions she saw a future queen, murdering all races of the kingdom. You have had many of the signs she had mentioned, and the council, " A cherished, the powerful, and of course royal" but what does this mean the queen asked? Suddenly feeling like a child again, not understanding… It means my lady that talkin’s vision may not be as crazy as you’d like to think.

Don’t feel that way my lady, it will all make it’s self clear in time. Sometimes we may not understand that, very moment, but it will all make sense eventually.
