“You can’t seriously be trying to revive Egerth, Natalia.”“I don’t see what the issue is here. Resurrecting the original gods was always a part of my plan. Revivin Egerth would come last. I have to first revive Nataroth so she could bring them all to life.”“That doesn’t mean it’s a good idea. All the original gods died with grudes. They have been dead for a long time and have become abstract concepts. If by chance, they were ever revived, the world would be in grave danger.”“I’m leaving it to the Queen to handle her people. It sounds like a terrible idea but when have I ever made a bad decision?”“I’m just worried about the repercussions. What if the world gets destroyed or worse, rewritten?”“If it gets rewritten, there is no way you would know,” Natalia smiled. Madaline was terrified because according to Natalia, it had happened two times already. Using her magic, she sent the sarcophagus back to where she kept it. “As it stands, all I need is a little more magic to be able to a

“You can’t make me do this!”“I already have. If you weren’t so persistent in wasting all our time, then I wouldn’t have to do this to you. I don’t know why you think of me as a villain when I’m doing this for your own good!”“You’re always doing something like this! You act like you're omnipotent and you make too many rash decisions on behalf of people. You like to control their lives and expect them to thank you for lording over them! I can’t bear it any longer! I want you to stop controlling my life!”“You are overreacting. When have I ever lorded over you?! I gave you a choice in this matter and I helped you out. I’m not even asking for thanks! I’m asking you to finish what you started! In the first place, you’re the one who came to me for advice!” “And I regret that choice very much! I am not going through with this and I don’t want to hear anything about this any longer.”“Well, I’ll just have to see how long you can hold out,” she settled, glaring at him. He stormed out of the

The roads leading to Berinda were rockier than the ones leading to Polivia. Natalia couldn’t help comparing the two, especially since one had less landmass and had less financial power yet it seemed to be the only one with good facilities as compared to the one who boasted rich nature and resources. It was laughable. Worse of all, she couldn’t use magic so she had to bear with the uncomfortable trip up the mountain.“Cheese, are you doing alright?”The fairy’s yawn was more lethargic than usual. Cheese had to seal her magic to be able to make it through the anti-magic zone. They finally made it halfway up the mountain and took a break in the cave nearby. “I certainly regret this,” she grumbled, staring at the falling snow that began almost immediately after they entered the cave. Ever since she got magic, she had never traveled this slowly but this journey was forcing her past her comfort zone. It was annoying. “Master, we’ll have to make the rest of the journey up by foot. One of u

Adelie…Adelie…Adelie…“Yes, my lord?”Your destiny…has changed. You have derailed from a glorious path and are now forging a path in darkness. Why have you chosen this path?“This path…is the only proper way forward. I will not lay my resentment to rest yet they shall not bother my life. This happiness within me is like an oasis in the desert. It feels like my heart has been craving it for a long time.”Happiness is not what you should desire! Power! Prosperity! Ascension!“What is all this without happiness, my lord?” Happiness is for mere mortals!“I…am a mortal, my lord.”Nevertheless…the mortal you call your sister is the reason why your path changed so much. You are destined to be enemies yet here she is, buttering you up to kill you. You must get rid of her before she kills you!“My lord, you know and see everything. Why would my sister want to kill me?”You are right that I can see everything and I know everything. However, there is one mortal I cannot see or know the depth of

"You are so…predictable, Lord Sebastian. I'm amazed to see it in reality. It's very fascinating.""I'm glad you're fascinated by this, your highness. Please, help us.""Unfortunately, I already gave my word to Lady Natalia that I will not be helping you. She also asked me to pass you something. Steward, go fetch the letter on my desk.""Yes, your highness!"Temara turned back to the men and smiled wryly when she saw their downcast expressions. They looked like the world was ending, or rather, their world. The steward returned and gave the letter to Sebastian. He opened it and read out loud. [If you're reading this letter, Bastian, that means you've come to Princess Temara for help. This also means you must've exhausted all available options, like the king, right? Have you lost your mind? Is your level of belief in me so low that you will put your pride aside to beg for scraps? Coming to Berinda won't do you any good. You all could die. I cannot die! You know this! Why do you insist o
