The door.

She is the white eyed demon. -Aliki Aetos. (Chapter XXII)

XXIV

(Seventeen weeks and six days later.)

Zelda woke up with a terrible feeling in her gut. She knew today was the last day of their training and the day the Queen would pick her precedent.

She had worked hard to be general. She didn't want the throne, it was way too much responsibility.

She'd seen the stress lines become more prominent on Melantha's face as the attacks from Obscurum kept getting worse.

They were inching closer and closer to Auguruim and even though Melantha refused to admit it, she was terrified.

It was why she'd used intense training when the training should have lasted for a year or more.

"Rise and shine white eyes." She heard someone tease outside her door.

"It'll take you forever before you ever wake up before me!" Zelda yelled back.

She fixed her last button of her shirt and pulled open her door.
