Lahat ng Kabanata ng Princess of Death: Kabanata 51 - Kabanata 60

Rhae stood beside Aynyra on the platform from the previous day, the Queen sitting on her throne in front of them. The room was full, with Fae civilians sitting around the room, staring at them. Rhae turned to her right, to see Valor and Aerys sitting down on the stands, surrounded by guards holding spears.The Queen stood, causing the crowd to mimic her. "Rhaenyx Maltalor, Aynyra Talaelex, you will participate in a test for me. If you pass all three tests, then we will provide aid in exchange for a favour. You will owe me once we have removed your threat. The first test is control." Her voice drifted as the world around Rhae turned dark, hiding the Fae circling her. She seemed to be standing in a black room across from Aynyra, fire on the ground their only source of light. The Queen's voice echoed over them, "Rhaenyx, you must control the fire around Aynyra and stop it from burning her. Aynyra, you must defend Rhaenyx from arrows that can be fired from any direction.

Rhae sat around the table, eating her breakfast. Nobody else had emerged from their rooms yet, probably to avoid talking about what happened yesterday. When the door opened to Aerys' room, she stood and turned to him, unsure of what to say."I'm sorry about what you had to go through yesterday, and about them. It'll just take a little bit to get over. You don't exactly have a great past. I know they understand you were forced, I think they are just grieving," Aerys rubbed his palms."Thank you, Aerys. I'm sorry you had to witness all that," Rhae said, averting her eyes. She stood there in a moment of silence, before starting again, "Listen, Aerys. I'm going in to the city today, I need to get out of here and take a walk. You have to stay here with Valor and Aynyra. I don't trust any of you for stealth in a new city. I'll be back soon, and cover for me.""Wait, you're going out? How are you even getting down there?" Aerys quizzed her.Rhae smi

Rhae rubbed her eyes as she woke. She stretched out over the covers, feeling the soft silky covers of the Fae. A voice rumbled from the corner of the room, suddenly causing her to sit up, "Morning, sweetheart." Ambrose was sitting in the plush armchair in the corner of her room, staring at her with a half smile. Rhae rubbed her head, the memories of the day before flooding her. After the test, Ambrose brought her back to her chambers and lay her on the bed. He lay next to her, running his fingers through her hair until she drifted off into a dreamless sleep. Rhae bit her lip and asked him, "Did we pass?"Ambrose stood chuckling, "You did. But understand that the tests are not there for you to pass, they are there to test your dedication to your cause." Ambrose slowly strolled over to her and grabbed the bottom corner pole of her bed that held up the canopy. "You've passed the tests, but you need to look at what the tests taught you and w

Ambrose stood across from Rhae holding his arms up in front of his chest, ready to grab any attack from Rhae. She stood in her Fae form, taking a deep breath to centre her magic for their training session. "Once again, Rhae, we are practising control. You are going to light that pile of logs on fire and keep it burning, without burning the logs underneath it. Then, I'm going to attack you and you need to stop me without letting the fire go out," he commanded. Rhae paused and creased her brows, "How am I supposed to stop you?" Ambrose chuckled, "Figure it out, now start the fire." Rhae turned to the fire and stared, within seconds it was ablaze, burning brightly without even charring the logs. Her practice over the last few days had paid off, she was now able to control her fire well. Her practice now was controlling two sources at once, manipulating them in different ways. As Ambrose leapt to attack her, Rhae took inspiration from Aynyra and b

Rhae walked out of her chambers one morning, to find Aynyra, Valor and Aerys sitting at the breakfast table. All three looked at her with a glance, before returning their eyes to the meal in front of them. Rhae bit her lip and quietly stepped over to the table, sitting across from them. After a few moments of silence, Rhae began piling food onto her plate and digging in, focusing on satiating her hunger than the tension between the group. Suddenly, Aynyra stood, bursting out "What the hell is wrong with you?" she screamed.Rhae blinked and stopped chewing the food that was in her mouth. She glanced around and swallowed before looking up at Aynyra, "I'm sorry?"Aynyra growled, "you disappear for days, leaving early and coming back late, without a word to any of us, running off with that Fae male!"Rhae looked over to Valor and Aerys, who merely averted their eyes. Rhae stood, growling in anger at the accusations, "I was training! Just li
