The sky was gloomy, as the clouds slowly turned to dark with its shade burned ash. The breeze wended mercilessly, among the thick, old trees surrounding the academy.
Its as if the Gods connived, brewed up something dangerous in the clouds, or simply yet, they are to make this world will regret.
Just like how we've been boiled up from our crimes and mistakes with a punishable plague that swarms the world on its end.
The world was once painted as a beautiful paradise,
but now it's tainted with greed and power in which we don't recognize.
a nature that is constantly crumbling,
where the apocalypse has come rumbling. . .

Life is unpredictable.
Just a moment before, she was still one of the hospital room quarters, however, she got blackout from a huge headache then, fell into the darkness.
Heavy drops of rain poured her little figure that made her stir in awake. She found herself lying in cold on some rocks.
She heard the skies grumbling, as cold breeze past through her, sending her shivers through her body. She blinked then, began to take a glimpse on her new surroundings while she was still lying on the forest floor.
Where am I?
She was flabbergasted when she found herself bathed with dried blood, and found out she had broken some ribs, dislocated one of her wrist and. . .worse, her stomach has a gaping hole. . how come she. .miraculously still alive?
Seeing her injuries, she never felt any pain from them. What the hell is going on?
Did the owner fell from such a high cliff?
She tilted her head up and saw a silhoette of a mountain, yet barely seen due to fogged and uncondition weather. Thinking in deep thought. as she looked at her surroundings and she could tell that maybe. . .she was dumped in the wilderness. .under the cliff?
Suddenly, a sharp pain jolted on her head, sending foreign memories flooded into her mind. They were screamings, wailings and swords-clanking. All of them doesn't belong to her. She came to realize she was living in a different body. She found out that this new her had a similar name, one of her own, Aria.
What interests her more was that she found out Aria was a princess, which would be the future queen of the kingdom, Achathia. She has two siblings. Leah, the youngest sister and Alex as the second brother. After all, she was the eldest one.
Evyionne, was considered as sweet, honorable child while Alex was notoriously known as the pampered one. Arrogant, unreasonable, and haughty, almost everyone in the palace never believed he was a heir.
Her father, Edward and the founder of Kingdom of Erynthi, Harvey. They both had great relationships and they even swore an oath to the heavenes as brothers. King Harvey has two sons, which is Aeron and Corvan. When Edward took a liking to the First Prince, he coerced the Harvey to have the First Prince and his daughter betrothed.
As the crisis started the kingdom went into chaos, and has sacrificed thousands of soldiers to defend the kingdom. After many years had passed, the king grew old and died, passing the throne to the chosen ones.
This is where Queen Aria stepped in - the sweet, noble her changed into cold blooded one. She was known as the fearless, vicious, unscrupulous, and a bloodthirsty killer, beheading those who will harm her kingdom.
However, the more she search through her fragments of memories, the more she feels how familiar her story she had made in her current life. It didn't fully told her before how the current owner died, as if the remaining memories she has the past few years has lost some of its missing piece. She only know that she was in a different body.
Just like how she read in novels, the memories will regained back when she gets stronger.
According to the memories told her, she had been dead for a few years, made her body stiff and unable to move. This body would be still an empty shell if she hadn't come sooner.
Suddenly, something shifted on her legs, it was like a snake crawling both of her thighs. It felt awfully sticky and slowly moving. This movement made her hitched her breath. But with her impatient mind she has right now, causing her to hyperventilate.
This is not good.
What could it be?
A snake? Oh God don't let it be a snake!
