《The Telmarine Princess》Chapter One - The Night
Advertisement
----3rd Person----
The screams of Lady Prunaprismia rattled through the castle which was bathed in nightlight. Professor Cornelius stood waiting in the shadows to here of the news. Once a midwife came out she dealt the fatal blow.
"Lord Miraz has a son" With that the Professor turned and silently walked to his first room. He opened the door of Princess Katerina the youngest of King Caspian IX children. She slept soundly in her bed her flawless skin almost radiant as she slept. Professor Cornelius put his hand over her mouth and she let out a muffled scream of shock. Once realising who it was se glared and took his hand away.
"Go bother Caspian I'm too tired to look at stars" she grumbled turning over.
"There will be no star gazing tonight Princess. Quickly" she was now alert as the Professor gave her a cloak and she put it on along with the hood.
"What's going on"
"Your Aunt has given birth to a son" she gasped. Katerina loved her aunt Prunaprismia because she was nothing but kind and warm to her. Her Uncle Miraz on the other hand was mean and cold she never really understood the match. But just knowing her beloved Aunt had given birth to her brothers and in turn her downfall she was filled with fear.
Professor Cornelius and Katerina made their way through secret passageways until they reached her brothers room.
"Open the wardrobe there will be a panel at the back." Katerina nodded

I opened the wardrobe as the Professor woke up my brother.
"5 more minutes" he breathed I pushed his clothes out of the way before opening the panel.
"There will be no watching the stars tonight my prince. Come we must hurry" He got Caspian out of bed and he saw me.

"What's going on" he asked
"Our Aunt had given birth to a son" I told him
"Come" We all got in but the both of us watched through a crack as soldiers and General Glozelle had crossbows. I nearly screamed as I saw all of them fired on a empty bed. We were pulled back and walked through a tunnel which took us to a corridor and stairs . We waited then moved till we reached the armoury. Caspian and I picked a sword and The Professor gave Caspian a cloak. I was pulled on to the back of Destrier.
"You must make for the woods" he told us.
"The woods?" I asked
"They won't follow you there" he then dug into his robes and took out a package handing it to Caspian.
"It has taken me many years to find this" Caspian put it away "Do not use it except at your greatest need" he told us
"Will we ever see you again" Caspian asked
"I hope so my Prince...Princess there is so much more I meant to tell you look after one another because everything you know is about to change" he whispered
"Close the drawbridge" we looked up to the order Destrier got restless.
"Now go" we took off out of the stables and into the courtyard. They told us to halt but I grabbed one of their spears and knocked them out. On our way past I threw it into a fire. Crossing the bridge we halted, I held onto Caspian as Destrier stood up and fell back down. We heard the announcement. I looked back and saw that soldiers were on us.
"Caspian we must leave...now!" I stressed he nodded and we set off again running through the town and out into the meadow I grasped tight as Caspian hurried our pace so we could reach the woods. We didn't stop as we entered, I thought we had lost them because of what the professor said but I was wrong they began to catch up as we left the forest for the ford at Beruna.

We made it through the ford and into the wood again both of us looked back to see if they were still there but we lost them for now. I was then knocked off the horse by Caspian. Sitting up I gasped as he was being dragged by Destrier I got up and ran to follow them. Caspian got his foot free and Destrier rode of.
"Caspian" I breathed as I dropped beside him "Are you alright are you hurt." he grunted
"Just my head" he laid there.
"Brother we must make haste I suspect they will catch up with us soon" He nodded and sat up. I was about to stand and help him when we heard a creak a hatched.
"They've seen us" one of them said another figure ran out and I took out my sword and putting myself in front of my brother. The figure who turned out to be a dwarf stopped mid pace I looked to his line of sight as he spotted a horn.
"Take care of them" the dwarf ran off and another one took its place however this one didn't stop and attacked me
"The horn" I yelled Caspian grabbed it.
"No" he blew the horn and the dwarf knocked him out. Then turned to me
"Don't even try it" I warned
"Nikabrik leave her alone" a badger came out.
"It's alright your safe" he held us paws up. I analysed him before looking at the dwarf.
"You stay away" I stood up and sheathed my sword.
"What is your name child" the badger asked me
"I am Katerina Princess of Telmar and you?"
"I am Trufflehunter your highness this is Nikabrik. Come we but get him inside" I nodded and helped take my brother inside.

Mother World
Three people find themselves in a strange place filled with dangerous creatures and monsters that prowl during the night. Will they adapt or die trying?Rule #1: Beware of the black water. Rule #2: Don't act like a cliche horror movie character. Rule #3: Being strong is a plus---------------------------This story was inspired by a dream I was in and I just had to turn it into a written story. This is basically my very first attempt at creating a story beyond ten pages and I'm writing it for fun so please be gentle~ Mother World will contain some sci-fi, elements of fantasy, supernatural powers and of course some romance. When it comes to the romance it'll be gradual. The romance may or may not contain sex scenes as I'm not sure if ya'll would want my half baked attempts at tickling your fancy. The horror tag is there because I am a really big fan of horror games. I'll try not to be too excessively gory, however... there will be blood... I like to treat my characters like those in game of thrones. Screw plot armor! As for the tragedy tag...ya'll will just have find that out for yourselves won't ya! :)Also beyond chapter 4.5, I'll try and consistantly keep them at 1000+ words.

The Fall of The Gods
Synopsis: In the year 1966, an army of Orishas led by Sango stormed Amadioha’s palace and razed it the ground, starting a decades-long war between two of Nigeria’s most powerful divine orders. Blinded by the rage of battle, the gods did not detect the rise of a third power, far greater and deadlier than anything they could have imagined. When gods, on both the Yoruba and Igbo sides, begin falling mysteriously to their death, Sango seeks the help of Odion, a Lagos teenager destined to rise from his dark past to become a hero. But can a human hero save the gods from a doomed fate? The Fall of the Gods is an action-packed YA fantasy based on the mythical bond that ties human life with the realm of the divine. It demonstrates the power of stories to change our lives. It also reminds us that Sango and Amadioha are not relics of the past and that, sometimes, what it means to be a hero in today’s world is knowing how to find inspiration in the stories of the gods. PLEASE NOTE: Weekly chapters will be released every friday along with interludes once in a while about Nigerian mythology. I'm a young 17 year old writer and I am new to the site so I will appreciate your comments and reviews. Thank you very much.
