Chapter 0 Banished Queen

It was a dark stormy night as a woman with long black hair as dark as midnight and ruby red eyes glared up at the window, awaiting her ill fate. She has been locked in the isolation tower as she wonder of her fate.

"Queen, Lilith, the king is here to see you."

The queen's face twisted from pitiful to hopeful as she heard the door open

. A man with red hair and amethyst jewels for eyes stood in the doorway obviously wearing the king's clothes as to who will imitate the king but the king himself.

"My king, I know you couldn't send me away, I just-." her eyes widened at a stack of papers in his hands. That can only be one thing. Divorce Decree. "This has to be a mistake. I didn't know I would be a figure head for a rebellion. my king have mercy! Derrick, how can you do this, do you not cherish our love for so many years?!"

The Lilith knew all her luxurish items, dignity and attention will fade from her grasp, as she try to grab his hand. She watched as a girl with long periwinkle hair and green eyes snicker, she adorned a white priestess outfit, her name was "Fantasia Abelle" the priestess and childhood friend of King Derrick.

"What...love? Fantasia, strip the queen of her powers, I released the seal on you." said King Derrick as he snatched his hand from the woman he once love. She gasped as she fell onto the floor.

"Wait, Derrick for the sake of the baby-". Lilith stopped as she noticed the expression Derrick's face won't change.

Fantasia nods and pressed her thumb against the Lilith's forehead removing the magical symbol shaped like a peony that the queen wore. The Lilith's eyes went blank as a release of magical energy releases from her back into Derrick. Lilith fell onto the floor and Fantasia's smile turned a bit sinister as she watched Lilith convulsed from the reaction of the ritual. Fantasia walked over to Derrick and out of spite told him. "Lilith, might need a royal doctor, heck she might not live, might as well execute her. She once claimed she was pregnant, it might not be yours." said Fantasia as she smiled sadisticly.

"Alrighty we'll give her a full check up in the morning, then straight to the isolation palace."

"Fantasia, prepare an annoucement, all maidens between the age of 15-18, rich or poor, power or no power to come to the royal ball. I will select a new, responsible queen. To make it faster, send the piece of the power I had for Lilith to search for a compatible Bride" Derrick sighed as he slicked his red hair back and his purple eyes shot daggers at the former queen who is still convulsing on the floor as a doctor rushed in and attends to her.

"Don't disappoint me, Fantasia."

Fantasia grit her teeth and kicked the doctor away. "Stop treating her!" Fantasia rage could not be contained as she thought to herself while biting her lips hard that she drew blood. "I should have been queen from the start!" Fantasia stormed out the room and as she did the storm rages.

Meanwhile in the Kingdom of Lustita, at the Duke Ferdinand mansion, a girl with eyes that is bearing of silver glint and long silver hair like the duke's own was humming away in her attic loft bedroom as she brush her long hair.

As she walked to her bed and prepare for her slumber, a marking on her forehead appeared a mark of a Peony.

A new bride has been found.
