"I'm sorry did you just announce my engagement to your bratty son without even letting me know!"
You exclaim after you enter the throne room, looking like you are ready to kill someone.
Celestan sits on his throne, with his legs spread lazily, looking annoyed and tired.
"Yes, and? I see nothing wrong in that"
You scoff, shaking your head in disapproval.
"Guards leave us" the said men obey their king, and take their leave.
"I'm pretty sure, that you know that in the real world you have to take my permission, I'm not a toy" you spat.
"But we aren't in the real world, you are in my world, therefore, you follow my rules, darling."
He stands up and walks towards you gracefully.
"You are living on an island, where the men are a majority, and you are the only minority" you gulp, as he sneers at you.
"So, you better start following the rules, dear future daughter in law" his tone is filled with mockery.
When he sees the displeased expression on your face, he chuckles, grabbing a strand of your hair.
It has grown longer and faster over the past months, having it reach past your waist.
"Why do I have a feeling that you are another entity, Celestan" you admit, glaring into his eyes.
"You are right, I'm another entity" your eyes widen at his confirmation.
Wait, so Celestan isn't a human being from the start? is that why he existed way before anyone on this island?
"How about this, let us play a game" you raise an eyebrow at his suggestion.
"What type of game?" you inquire curiously.
"If you can guess what I am, I will return you to your home"
This perks your interest, making you excited to return home.
However, you don't show it.

"And if I guess incorrectly?"
Indeed, what will happen if you make an incorrect guess? Will you get punished?
"You marry my son as appointed" you let out a sigh.
"Well, you look like-" he cuts you off, by placing his whole hand on your lips.
"The deadline is in three days, so take your time to think"

"Celestan must be a demon,
there is no other explanation for his devilish behavior"
You mumble to yourself as you walk in the hallways of the palace.
The thought of your freedom depending on one answer stresses you out.
Suddenly, you bump shoulders with someone, causing you to stop and apologize.
"Sorry, didn't mean to bump into you" you exclaim.
Your eyes widen at how handsome the man is unbelievably handsome.
He is way taller than you or anyone you have seen, making you feel like an ant compared to him.
He has red curly hair and bright green eyes which are glaring into your eyes.
"Huh? So, his highness decided to replace the old bitch with a new one" you are surprised by his words.
"Excuse me, what?" the stranger chuckles.
"You are not the first woman to come here"

The Shadow Paradigm - Book 1: Project Orb Weaver
Gardening, cooking, innovation, preservation, charity events... Madzistrale, Tom and Gabzryel does it all. But when they encounter the mysterious Shiakar Paradigm Society, a clash of paradigms ensues. Although both groups are aiming to make humanity stand stronger, their ideals and methods could not be further apart. Between the trio's optimistic yet naive ideals, and the SPS's tried-and-true surgical methods, determining the answer which methods can better humanity is a struggle that both parties must resolve in their own ways... Welcome to the 7th revision of my 10+ years ongoing novel trilogy. This revision took out some flawed plot concepts to re-introduce a more down-to-earth, film noir-like ambience, where a battle of wits is what will determine the outcome. It also added instead more in-depth expansion into the lives and mindsets of the characters, especially the heroes (a missing factor in older versions). Third-view limited storytelling was also introduced more prominently over my favoured third-view omnipotent, with each chapters concentrating as much as possible on a single character's point of view instead of head-hopping. So I shall begin uploading the chapters as I finish them; they're edited as much as I can, but there'll most likely be some typos and mistakes. As always, I welcome your comments and critiques, and I hope you enjoy reading that story as much as I did creating it! A parting poem to introduce the story (translated from its original French version): Credit: Les Mots, Mylene Farmer & Seal Firmly, the sky writhes When a mouth begets a death There, I will give my life to hear you To tell you the most tender words When all becomes all alone I'll break my life for a song And to lives that stoop to notice mine I know I will say goodbye But a fraction of this life I would give anything, anytime The universe has its mysteries Words are our lives You could kill a life with words Soul, how would it feel? If our lives are so fragile Words are mysteries Words of feelings Words of love, a temple If one swept the world away One could touch the universe I will tell you how the sun rose high We could with a word become one And for all those words that hurts us There are those that touches us Which illuminates, touches the infinity Even if nothingness exists For a fraction on this life We will give anything, anytime The universe has its mysteries Words are our lives We could kill a life with words Soul, how would it feel? If our lives are so fragile Words are mysteries Words of feelings Words of love, a temple
