A lone fairy walked swiftly through the castle hall until he came to a set of massive, wooden doors. The doors were decorated with intricate carvings and were adorned with gold and jewels. On the top of the right door, there was a carving of a slim fairy whose wings were wrapped around a piece of land. Her hair was a dark brown color and her skin was beautifully tanned. Her wings were decorated with tiny gems of all colors, creating an iridescent effect. On the left door was a second fairy who was hovering behind the figure of a human. Her hands were outstretched towards the mortal and her wings were fanned out behind her. Like the first fairy, her wings were covered with jewels. She had light skin and golden, blonde hair. In the center of the two doors was a third fairy. She was carved higher than the other two. Her face was angled towards the sky and her arms and wings were stretched out as rays of light shone down on her. A large crown was perched on her head. Her hair was as white as snow and her skin was very pale. Out of the three fairies, she was by far the most beautiful. 62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVI6ytCNQg
The hall was lit with balls of light that floated high above the fairy’s head as he stopped just outside the doors. Two guards were standing outside the doors. 62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKFBA8VQtHS
“You’re not granted permission today, sir,” the fairy on the right said gruffly. 62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1J45LKlkJp
“Excuse me?!” 62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnUQZN0HWJe
“Per the Queens’ requests, no visitors are allowed. They have very important things to do, Othan. Just because you’re their favorite doesn’t give you the right to intrude on their business,” the guard sneered. Othan glared at him, then looked at the second guard. He avoided Othan’s gaze. 62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJSghmIjHd
“I have something important to discuss with their majesties, so if you will kindly move-” he said, trying to push past the two guards. They grabbed his arms. 62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUHKNSbRXTf
“I said you are not allowed to enter! Stand down Othan!” 62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSQgUKnen3l
Suddenly the doors began to open. The three fairies scrambled out of the way so they wouldn’t get hit. As the doors swung open, they revealed a tall, pale-skinned woman. Her iridescent wings were relaxed behind her back and her snow-white hair fell down over her face slightly. 62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡte30i6qeUL
“Your majesty!” the three men exclaimed as they fell to their hands and knees in a deep bow. 62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7sonyErUF
“Othan…I’ve been expecting you,” the woman’s silvery voice said, ignoring the guards. Othan raised his head to meet her gaze. The guard grabbed his head and forced it down. 62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8OuRbFDIM
“How dare you look her directly in the eyes!” he hissed in his ear. 62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBjyCDseIG
“Let him go, Jael,” the woman commanded gently. 62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPpqK5DT0Zj
“Yes, your majesty!” Jael responded instantly, letting go of Othan’s head. 62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhz8tYPzWb2
“Stand up, my children.”62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkgAm1Ze9H
The three men stood, keeping their heads bowed. 62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl90gAgeA3H
“Come in, Othan, and tell me what is on your mind today,” the woman said, motioning for Othan to follow her behind the doors. He entered a large room after her and the doors shut behind them. The room’s ceiling was very high and was decorated with tiny balls of light that resembled stars. A large fountain was standing in the center of the room; all around it was a huge garden. Tiny streams ran from the fountain and provided the indoor garden with water. Trees and flowers of all kinds were growing inside the room. The atmosphere in the room was perfect and it relaxed Othan’s nerves. A small dove flew down from a tree and perched on the woman’s shoulder. Othan followed the woman down a small, stone path that led to the fountain. She sat down on the edge. Othan sat beside her. “I’m glad you came to see me, my child.”62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3Nw1BS0WD
“As am I, your majesty. I have missed talking to you,” Othan replied. 62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnIQjOZf9bi
“I am always with you, you know. You can talk to me whenever you feel you must. I will always listen.” 62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJvuzrdP6zG
“I know, your majesty. But I don’t want to burden you with my troubles all the time,” Othan sighed. The woman smiled. 62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8wOPqR4eCt
“You are never a burden, Othan.” 62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlDgKDLBV0
“Thank you.” 62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ74ytP1D5u
“What is it that you wanted to talk about today?”62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcV5tniMIoM
“It’s about what I said earlier…” Othan began. A pained expression suddenly flashed across the woman’s face. She stood up. 62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohcdTPNsCB
“I have told you to forget that foolishness, Othan,” she said quietly. 62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJC9ZiubJsL
“It’s not foolish! I'm determined to do this! It’s for your good, your majesty! Why don’t you see that?!” he cried. 62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZitSpQTev8
“I can see all, Othan. I know your true intentions. You wish to be above me and my sisters. That is one thing I can not allow. I love you, Othan, but if you continue like this, then I’ll have no choice but to cast you out.”62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbPLhkv3rT
Othan stood up angrily. 62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNL0zxjGcMt
“My intentions are true! I mean no harm!” he answered. 62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOaZLYKTeFO
“That may be so, but your lust for power greater than ours is unacceptable. Continue this and you will be removed from our kingdoms forever,” she said sternly. Othan sighed angrily. 62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqXn3TNJk6
“Yes, your majesty,” he muttered. 62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡekNM7WcnE9
“You may leave now. This conversation has caused me much distress.” 62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjGTd8kKUA
Othan bowed to the woman and turned back towards the direction of the doors. Once he’d left the garden and entered the castle hall again, another fairy approached him. Her short brown hair glistened under the floating lights and her piercing blue eyes glinted with anticipation. 62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJSFF7MW00q
“How did it go?” she questioned. Othan shook his head. 62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNZ4MRHxIn
“She’s onto our plan. Any hope of taking over peacefully will not work. We will have to go with our second option,” he answered as he walked past the girl. She followed close behind him. 62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFYopwdP05B
“Oh goody! I was hoping we’d get to follow through with that plan. I’ve been craving some action in this boring place lately!”62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmrgeiAhTqb
