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!

Entering the Imperial City 3
A week after returning to the imperial capital, Princess Qamari and Bai Lan settled down in the pharmacy. One with exceptional medical skills and the other with enough knowledge to recognize the different herbs, the two quickly garnered a little bit of reputation.
"Princess, it's so peaceful and serene here. I wish life would go on like this forever."
But she knew such a wish was futile. The number of mutated beasts outside the City Gates grew by the day, raising unrest in the merchants' hearts.
"Bai Lan, you said every dark magic wielder will become two times stronger under the influence of the Dark Moon. What happens after the Dark Moon disappears?" Princess Qamari fiddled with a handful of herbs, her eyes peeking out of the dome-shaped shop with a thoughtful expression on her face.
For the past few days, her left eye had been constantly twitching, filling her heart with a faint inkling of the inevitable about to descend.
