Swallowing Woods, Clearing of the Mist

Prologue

Prologue

Jun 09, 2021

There was a large clearing with branches growing above it all almost like a roof. Not one ounce of the sky or the stars could be seen, and nothing could be seen from above. 

It was the perfect hiding spot for an outcast. There was not just one person who was living in the clearing, a whole civilization. Living out of the reach and out of the rule of any kingdom. 

There was a small hut, made out of branches, mud, and leaves, with a small hole for a window, with light shining through it. Inside, there was a baby girl, wrapped in silk blankets that for sure did not belong there. Almost like the baby came here on her own, knowing that they would be a person that would hide from their destiny, until they found out who they really are.

This is the world, nothing is usually as it seems. In this world, everything is different. Everything is out of harmony. Everything is going wrong, but no one knows. No one besides the King of Kingdom Cete Grandia Caligo (Kingdom of Mist Whales). I have been sent there by my father (the king of the Kingdom, Kingdom Serpentis (Kingdom of Serpents)). 

I am starting to have my suspicions on what is keeping the king from letting his kingdom know what is happening. The majority of them are absurd, but that is why I have to think of all of the different possibilities so that I can make a good plan of action based on each of the different ones. 

The first suspicion that I have (which would most likely be the most common possibility) would be that the kingdom's government is corrupt. That possibility is low, but very high at the same time, because if the King wants people to think (not that that the citizens of his kingdom are) that something is up, he would want them to think of the most obvious possibility because he would not like his possibility to be obvious, but then again, there are many people that can be just as clever as him (like me) and can out think him (like I am possibly going to be able to do). 

The second possibility is that he is under some sort of spell (which has not (that I am aware of) happened in centuries), but still can be possible. The first time that a monarch was under mind control or a mind curse was three thousand years ago, and in this same kingdom, the mind control spell or curse was cast by a member of the royal household. I have studied everything about Kingdom Cete Grandia Caligo, and I have found out that there was an older sister to the current crown princess Felicia May Maniliron. The name of the older sister is not in any of the books or papers that I have read, but in only one of the sources that I was provided with, it was stated that both of the sisters have strong magic in their blood. 

The thing is, chaos is predicted to happen, and nobody is prepared, or believes this prediction.

If something like that is going to happen, then I am worried. Not just for his kingdom, but for mine, and the others across the world.
