In a secluded de, hidden deep within the Spirit World, a tiny fairy flitted through the air, her delicate wings shimmering in the warm, dappled light. Her name was Lina, one of the younger fairies, not particrly powerful yet but filled with curiosity about the world around her. Today, she had gathered with her friends, all clustered together on the soft, mossy ground under a canopy of trees that glowed with a faint, ethereal light. They whispered and chattered, their small voices buzzing like the hum of bees, eager to hear the story—the story of their world''s new queen.
Lina''s eyes sparkled as she looked up at Elder Sna, an ancient fairy with soft, silver wings and a gentle, knowing smile. Sna was wise and kind, one of the oldest fairies left since the days of Queen Elysia. To the younger fairies, she was more than just an elder; she was a storyteller, a keeper of memories. They knew that if anyone could exin the recent changes, it would be her.
The elder fairy began, her voice soft but clear, carrying through the quiet clearing with a gentle resonance. "Many of you know that our beloved Queen Elysia has passed. She was our light, our strength, and she protected us from all harm." Her voice softened, and a shadow of sorrow passed over her expression.
"But the Spirit World couldn''t remain without a queen," Sna continued, "Without her protection, our world was exposed to threats from beyond our borders. The humans… well, we weren''t sure if they might try to take advantage of our vulnerability."
Liora shivered, her small frame trembling at the thought. "Would they really have hurt us?" she whispered.
"Perhaps," Sna answered, her voice kind, "But we were blessed to have the Saint Maris. She maye from the human world, but her heart has always been kind. Maris gave us her protection, creating a powerful barrier around the Spirit World. She warned the humans that we were under her watchful care, and with her strength behind us, we were able to rebuild in peace, free from the threat of invasion."
Lina''s heart fluttered with gratitude.
"But even with Saint Maris''s protection, we still needed a queen," Sna went on, "It couldn''t just be anyone. Elysia had left behind a legacy of kindness and wisdom, a legacy that wouldn''t be easy to carry forward. And so, the strongest fairies of the Spirit World gathered to decide who should be the new queen—a decision that took many days and many long discussions. Among our people, there are nine fairies who hold the greatest power, enough power to protect the entire Spirit World."
"Nine Kingdom ss fairies," Lina murmured. She knew a few of their names.
Sna nodded, a gentle pride in her gaze. "Each of the Kingdom ss fairies is a symbol of strength, wisdom, and courage. But one of them, a fairy who had served Queen Elysia as her personal maid, was special. She wasn''t only powerful; she was trusted. She knew Elysia''s heart better than anyone else, having spent her life by the queen''s side, loyal and unwavering."
"The maid?" Lina whispered, "The one who was always close to the queen?"
"Yes," Sna replied with a fond smile. "In the end, all of the Kingdom ss fairies agreed. They chose her to be our new queen. She was humble, loyal, and had served Elysia with the utmost devotion. Now, she would serve the Spirit World with that same dedication."
The younger fairies let out soft breaths of awe. It was almost unimaginable—a maid bing queen. But to them, it made perfect sense. Who better to carry on the queen''s legacy than the one who had known her best?
"And so," Sna concluded, "our new queen rose to lead. She has vowed to continue Queen Elysia''s mission. She will protect us, help our world grow stronger, and give us a future filled with peace and joy."
Lina felt warmth blossom in her heart, a budding hope.
Yet, while the Spirit World was on the rise, another world—a world of me and life—was headed in the opposite direction. The Phoenix Realm, once and of fire and renewal, had been struck by tragedy.
After a devastating battle, more than half the phoenix poption perished, their mes extinguished forever. The remaining phoenixes, instead ofing together to rebuild, chose to scatter. The unity that had once defined them was lost as they decided to live independently.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
The nature of phoenixes was gentle and kind. Many chose to be guardians of human cities, offering protection. The strongest of them became protectors of entire kingdoms.
Some phoenixes preferred solitude, taking refuge in the wildnds far from human eyes, while others roamed the skies, flying from one horizon to the next, exploring the world with unrestrained freedom.
In their feathers and blood was a power that many greedy humans coveted. Phoenix feathers and blood were rumored to bring great power or even immortality.
However, the phoenix natural ability to turn evil into good protected them from greedy humas. Find more chapters on empire
Saint Maris herself reached out to the remaining phoenixes, crafting a binding agreement that neither side—human nor phoenix—would harm the other. Under her protection, the phoenixes could live in peace, free from the fears of hunters or exploitation.
Yet, while the Phoenix World endured, even if scattered, there was one realm that had beenpletely and utterly destroyed: the Dragon Realm. Every dragon, from the mightiest elders to the youngest hatchlings, had been in, leaving their world an empty wastnd. The skies, once filled with their roaring voices and sweeping wings, were silent. And thest dragon of all, Bing—the Ancient Ice Dragon—was only survivor of a once-great lineage.
Maris''s heart burned with hatred over the fate of the dragons, and this was the source of her deepest resentment toward Nyx. Not only dragon but tragedy at spirit and phoenix world is also done by Nyx, and millions of human died because of her.
All of this was enough for Maris to hate Nyx but she also knew that she couldn''t kill or fight Nyx.
