《Descendants: Lost Auradonian Queen》Family Day
Advertisement
EVIE'S POV:
After the whole incident at the tourney game, Mal and I had spoken to Briar about the whole lying to her thing and managed to somehow gain her forgiveness. We're both determined to not ruin our friendship with her, she had always been an amazing friend to us and I was so happy when she asked me to make her a dress. We sat in mine and Mal's room together currently as I finished sewing, it's family day and Briar is so nervous to meet her parents for the first time since she can remember.
"Hey, Briar!" I called, gaining her attention. "So I finished the dress and found some cute shoes with one of the crowns that I managed to bring to Auradon." She smiled thankfully. "I can't believe you're going to find out today if you really are the lost princess of Auradon all thanks to Mal!" I exclaimed with a grin.
"I still can't believe I let that slip out so quickly, I mean, I can keep a secret but why did I do it?" Mal shrugged with a smile at our friend. "Maybe it was the shock after Ben's love confession? Wow, I really am a disappointment." Mal admitted with a sigh.
Briar stood and walked towards Mal. "You are anything but a disappointment, don't let Maleficent's idiotic words get to you."
Mal shrugged as I held up the dress, presenting it to them. "Well, Briar, what do you think?" I asked as she took it out of my hands and examined it.
"I think it's beautiful." She grinned. "Thank you, Evie, I'm going to go get changed. Mind if I use your bathroom?" She asked.
"No problem, go ahead." I smiled, feeling proud of myself.
BRIAR'S POV: OUTFIT- pinterest.co.uk/phoebenock2/family-b/
I held the fabric of the dress in my hands as I walked into the bathroom and shut the door behind me. Placing the dress carefully on the side of the bath I looked around the darkly coloured room. All I could see was blue, purple, black, and a 'LONG LIVE EVIL' poster.
"Some people really don't change huh?" I giggled. I pulled in the dress and smiled at my reflection in the mirror, slipping on the shoes she had left for me and placing the crown delicately on my head. Evie did my hair and make-up earlier on before finishing the dress. I looked over myself, I looked like a true princess. My parents are surely going to recognize me when they see me.

I took a deep breath before opening the door to the bathroom and walking back into the bedroom. They both turned to me and froze as I stood there. "Damn." Mal grinned, breaking the silence.
"You're gonna be the center of attention today Briar!" Evie complimented as she gave me a hug.
"Thanks." I smiled nervously.
"Don't forget the necklace!" Mal exclaimed suddenly.
"Necklace?" I asked, looking between them.
Evie nodded and took a heart locket out of a small, silk bag. "You came to Auradon with this, we believe your mother gave it to you." She went behind me and placed the cold locket around my neck, clasping it and returning to the front of me. I lifted a hand and held it, memories of my mother giving it to me flushing into my mind as I smiled. "You can use it if they ask for proof."
Tears built up in my eyes as I grabbed Evie in a hug. "Thank you," I muttered into her shoulder as she smiled widely.
"It's fine, it's yours anyway, we're just returning it." She pulled away and held my hands. "Now don't cry, you'll ruin your makeup and it took me forever to do that." She scolded as I laughed.

Just as the song finished Briar and the villain kids were walking down the stone steps towards the garden. Catching Ben's eye as they walked to a table that was full of all different kinds of foods. Mal picked up a strawberry on her way past whilst Carlos handed Dude to Evie and attacked the chocolate fountain along with Jay as Briar watched them with disgust. She didn't dare grab anything as her stomach swam with nerves.
"Briar!" Ben called as he jogged over to her, he smiled as he reached her and took her hand. "Are you ready?" He asked, not waiting for her response before he dragged her over to their parents. She felt her breath catch in her throat as he stopped in front of them. "Mother, father, there is someone I would like you to meet." He said before he moved to the side revealing Briar who waved nervously, mentally panicking as she saw tears build in the Queen's eyes.

"Ah yes, Briar. So Ben said that he thinks you are his sister. Do you have anything to prove it?" Adam asked, trying to seem strong but wanting to run up to this girl who he knew was his little girl just by looking at her.
"Honey look!" Belle pointed to Briar's neck. "She has a locket and if I remember correctly, I gave Briar a locket with roses on it." Briar placed her hand over the locked and mentally thanked Evie and Mal. "Look! It's the same one!" Belle smiled as she approached. "May I see it?" She asked the nervous girl who nodded and struggled to unclasp it, placing it shakily in the Queen's hands. She took a small key which was on a chain from around her neck and used it to open the locket, revealing a family photo of Belle, Adam, Ben, and Briar, standing together. She held back a sob as she grabbed the small girl in a hug. "Oh my dear Briar, you came home!" She exclaimed.
"We looked for you but we couldn't find you, Maleficent and the Isle were hiding you from us. But now the Beast family is a whole!" Adam exclaimed as he joined in on the hug.
Briar felt complete as she hugged her parents, Ben watched from the side with a grin on his face and pulled her into a hug as soon as their parents let go. "Welcome home." He whispered.
"I'm glad to be home." She replied with a smile.

BRIAR'S POV:
I watched from the sidelines as my family played crochet. Mal with Ben after being introduced to our parents, I couldn't force the smile off of my face as I watched my mom and dad talk happily, glancing over at me occasionally. I was so transfixed with watching them that I didn't notice Chad Charming approach me and sat on the bench beside me. "Welcome home, Princess." He smiled as I jumped. "Sorry." He laughed as I playfully glared at him.
"It's good to be home." I smiled at my parents as he watched me.
"You know, we used to date." He joked as I rolled my eyes.
"When we were 3?" I giggled.
"Hey!" He laughed with me. "I was a very charming 3-year-old!"
"I'm sure." I teased as we laughed. "On a serious note though, I kind of do remember you."
He tilted his head curiously at me. "Really? I thought your memory was wiped."
I nodded. "It was, but I used to have dreams when I was on the Isle, about being in Auradon. Fairy Godmother said it was my magic trying to seep through and remind me of who I truly am."
He hummed thoughtfully. "That's smart, so do you remember me?"
"I remember a boy, he had curly blonde hair and we used to spend a lot of time together. When we weren't with my brother. He was my best friend and I remember feeling something I didn't understand." I shrugged.
He looked relieved and smiled. "So, I was wondering, if you would like to go to the coronation with me?"
My heart raced, I placed it on my chest in shock. "W-why is my heart beating so fast?" I whispered as he took my hand in his own, removing it from my chest.
"I think that means you feel the same as I do." He placed my hand over his chest and I felt his heart beating just as fast. "So that makes my next question a lot easier." He took a deep breath. "Will you be my girlfriend?"
I gasped and nodded frantically. "Of course! I would love to!" I pulled him into a hug, feeling as though I was on a high as soon as his arms wrapped around my waist. "I will go to the coronation with you too," I muttered into his shoulder as he chuckled.
Chad said some hurtful things to the villain kids and they now are ready to steal the wand and blow this popsicle stand.

Tur Briste
A Druid cultivation novel. Borrows concepts from Wuxia and Xianxia but using Druid myth and lore. More on this at the bottom. Crow is son of Maddox, a Druid with an ancient bloodline and a people with a story spanning toward the beginning of time. Cursed, unfated, and a heap of bad luck have brought him only pain and suffering, but nothing will stop him. Nothing can stop him. A son of Maddox doesn’t bow his head. A son of Maddox understands that only a man with roots, with something to lose, will fight until the last drop of blood leaves his body. The Draoidh were once a proud people. They were both respected and hated for their form of righteousness. Power wasn’t something they gained through the might of their arms, but through intelligence. Their fall was all the more disheartening for the weaker cultivators. The tens of thousands of years that followed… chaos reigned. They forced Draoidh until most fled to the lower realms, nearly wiped out and exhausted. They went into hiding and became known as the Druids of the Oak. The Druid Order wasn’t the powerhouse it had been, and only nine of the major clans survived the calamity. Their bloodline weakened, as well as their prestige. Even the remaining clans fought amongst each other. Already on the decline and near extinguished, the Maddox clan can only struggle for survival, but their foundation wasn’t a joke. Weakened, but not weak. The other clans will understand this difference soon enough. Tur Briste, the Shattered Tower, awaits Crow’s ascension. Reaching the upper realms is only the first step in reestablishing the Draoidh. The Druids of the Oak remembered every betrayal and grievance, and they’ll return to power and reclaim what once belonged to them. The upper realms may have forgotten, but the Druid Order has not. Please Note:1) This is harem story. There are only a few chapters with sex, and it’s not a focus of the story. I’ll only add graphic sex if I feel the story needs it, so not gratuitously. Either way, Crow has several women. This is in line with Druid/Celtic history, and harems/reverse harems were an accepted part of their culture. Further, they had open marriages, meaning the man or woman could end their marriage at any time. While it was still a patriarchy, women had almost equal power. They were a very progressive culture. 2) There is a period of a 30-50 chapters where Crow loses the ability to cultivate like a Druid so he adopts an eastern body cultivation method for a while. This is temporary, but some people feel it’s misleading, so I am pointing it out ahead of time. I promise, the Druid stuff comes back, and 90% of the lore/myths/creatures/gods are all related to Druid/Celt/Irish/Scottish history. 3) I use many original names, most of which are in Gaelic or Irish. In the story, I refer to this language as Ancient. I enjoy all kinds of folklore and myths, so I encourage you to google those original names as they arrive. I give some background on them at the end of the chapter in my author’s note. 4) I use Ogham runes a lot, these are like the Druid alphabet, and they based each rune on a sacred tree so they also have symbolism associated with them. Again, feel free to google that too. It’s pretty neat stuff. Quick Translations:Draoidh = DruidTur Briste = Shattered Tower or Broken Tower Release Schedule:As of Oct 1, 2021- 3 chapters released every Sunday (May have up to two bonus chapters)- Side character chapters… this might be bonus chapters I release through the week. So they won’t count toward the 3 chapters on Sunday.- Please understand I work full time, have two kids, and can’t spare as much time as I’d like toward my writing. Maybe in the future I can switch to doing this full time, but for now 3 chapters is a comfortable pace for me. Lastly… I very much appreciate all my readers and thank you for allowing me to entertain you!
