Foreboding Storm
In the seven realms of the Asirian Universe, continents and kingdoms fall under the jurisdiction of empires that control realms. Although realms have the power to interfere in the political, military, and economic policies of kingdoms and continents under their rule, national treasures, or treasures significant to specific kingdoms that are highly known and priceless cannot be wrested away by realms as it would result in the combined retaliation and wrath of all remaining realms. However, they could be exchanged in the form of dowry or betrothal gift between kingdom to kingdom, kingdom to realm, and or realm to realm. Jinn Kingdom, a small kingdom within the Iris Realm, weakest among the seven realms, faces destruction when the existence of a national treasure within the country is made known to the entire Asirian Universe. In order to avoid disaster while at the same time gain benefit, the ministers of the Isles of Eve decide to form marriage alliance with a powerful empire, using the national treasure as dowry. Amidst the struggle for survival in the Jinn Kingdom of the Eastern Desert in the Southeast Zenom Continent of the Isles of Eve, appear two cousins, Princesses Nari and Qamari, who because of the "golden bird" treasure in their Jinn Kingdom, known for its myth to bring prosperity and wealth, become prospective brides to the two outstanding princes of the Amayan Empire, Crown Prince Lail and his cousin Prince Noore. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Awards- WPC#229 - 1st Place Gold Tier ------------------------------------------------------------------ Follow me on my socials!

Realization
The beast burst out of the black lake with a splash that sent the clinging waves crashing back to their seabed.
Stretching its wet wings to their full length, it roared with a tremendous roar that pierced through the roiling mist, blasting the hazy fog apart.
Instantly, the tranquil black forest was revealed in its primitive glory as the mist cleared. Dense ancient trees stood tall as they obscured the sky, blocking the sun.
Wild beasts, small and large, dangerous and meek, froze in their spots as they looked around in confusion, the thunderous roar and unnatural disappearance of the mist, unnerving them.
The next moment, the forest boiled as the beasts panickily ran away in fear, wreaking havoc in their wake.
Black trees and vegetations were carelessly stamped into the damp ground, their leaves and branches blanketing the vibrating ground.
