Troll princess

King Gurland

Farima turned to the other side of the room. Her eyes were really heavy and she couldn’t wait to fall asleep. She was thinking about Dromansa and life had been tough for him. She was sure the poor man was fed up of King Gurland. Suddenly, she saw a light appear in her room. Her eyes looking up to see Andreas and Cyra standing before her. She couldn’t help but feel really lucky. They were here to help her.

“Cyra, thank goodness you are here.” Farima said happily. Cyra could see the dry blood on her arm.

“Who did this to you?” Cyra asked.

“It was King Gurland. He did this to me as punishment. He found out I usually visited you.” She said. Cyra felt really sad.

“That man is evil, why couldn’t you just disappear?” Andreas asked really calmly.

“He used witch magic on my powers. I can only use them if he lets me.” She said.

“Oh I see, he has forgotten that the chosen ones are your friends.” Andreas said while putting his hand up in the air. He shoot a spell at Farima. “Use your powers!” He commanded. She nodded and waved her hand in the air. Her powers were back because she was able to lift a cup that laid in her room.

“Thank you so much prince Andreas.” She said happily. While standing to her feet, her arm did hurt but she wasn’t going to let that keep her here. “We must leave before King Gurland gets back” She said in a whisper. Andreas nodded and casted a spell that made all of them disappear. They all appeared In cyras bedroom. Farima immediately sat on the floor when she got there.

“So what do we do now?” Farima asked.

“Cyra here is planning on leaving the mystic world. Her grandmother is sick.” Andreas said. Cyra facepalmed herself.

“Why are you planning on leaving?. I assure you your grandmother will be alright, you can even cast a spell that will heal her from here.” Farima said.

“Farima, it’s not that I do not want to help the mystic world. But my grandmother is in pain and there’s no one with her.” Cyra said.

“Trust me, the destruction you’ll cause if you do not attain the gems will be more burdening than your grandmother health. The book of the gems says it all. ‘The chosen one shall not invade the human world without help!’” Farima quoted.

“What does the help their mean?” Cyra asked.

“The gems. If you return now your form will create chaos in the human world. You can not become a human again until you’ve gotten the 8 gems.” She said.

“But that is not supposed to be so, I should be free to go out when I wish.” Cyra said.

“That is what you think, you do not know the power you own. You think you are not strong?. Hmm, Princess you are stronger than all the creatures in the mystic world and like I said one sneeze from you can set lighting unto a city,” Andreas said. “You have to understand all this, you are a special creature and a chosen one for that matter.” He added.

“You have to stay Cyra, we have like only 2 months to find the gems. We need your help to defeat King Gurland and as well save the kingdom of the trolls. This is a fight for all of us, we have to work together to ensure our happiness.” Farima said.

“You are right, I was simply being selfish. We’ll find the gem together, now we have to execute our first plan. We have two gems now, now we have to find the gem of the trolls. Right Andreas?” Cyra asked and he nodded.

“The gem of the troll is guided by a troll, a troll that has existed for centuries. Many believe that he is dead but I feel he is alive. And the myth says that he stands on top a tree. The other chosen ones could not get that gem because they did not understand this tale. But I feel like I do” Andreas said. He immediately made a map with his magical powers. The ladies stared at it with kin eyes wanting to know what it was.

“This is the tree of the seven gates. There’s no way we can get there. It doesn’t allow any magic around it, it’s very strong.” Farima said.

“Of course it does, we have the magic of the other two gems with us. We can get there.” Andreas said.

“I’m sorry but I can’t be part of this mission. My arm still hurts badly and I doubt if I would be able to climb the tree.”She said. Andreas didn’t utter a word and simply nodded. He understood why she was scared to climb that tree. The tree of the seven gates disliked ogres allot and would not fail to end her in sight.

“Don’t worry, I wasn’t even planning for you to accompany us. It is without a doubt that the tree of the seven gates will destroy you.”He said. She chuckled.

“You trolls have gated we ogres for years now. But I hope we can change that after we have saved the trolls and mystic world.” She said.

“So when do we leave for the tree?” Cyra asked.

“We will leave tomorrow morning, we need to start getting the gems together.” Andreas said.

“After getting the gems together, then what?” Cyra asked. She has been dying to know the reason why they were to getter all 8 gems. It wasn’t understandable.

“There’s a hole in the the heart of the mystic worlds. Long long ago there was a Great War where all the creatures fought. It wasn’t something funny, it was really massive and lives were lost. That was when the King of the trolls, your great, great, great, great grandfather decided that they all should take their gems keep them hidden. That was the only way to stop the Great War, and his reason behind this was in other to make sure that the fight for power was decreased. But unluckily got for your great, great, great, great grandfather. It began to lead to the destruction of the mystic world and him. Whenever a gem is found, the king loses his strength. That is why you have to find the eight gem, it is the most powerful of all gems and it can save your fathers life Cyra.” Farima said. Andreas listened to her intently. He was shocked that she knew all the stories from the past. Indeed the ogres were smart but that of Farima was good.

“What does the eight gem do?” Cyra asked. Farima looked at her calmly and sighed.

“It is the gem of the rat, they were the strongest after the trolls. They were banished for their evil acts. Their gem is the gem of the light, the power of the mystic world basically lies in it. But the gem isn’t spoken that much about because it a suicide mission trying to retrieve it from the King Ray.” Farima said.

“I’m going to retrieve it. I’m not letting my father die after I succeed. He has to watch his kingdom flourish.” She said. Farima smiled. She was sure princess Cyra would make a very good Queen in the future.

Andreas on the other hand simply stared at the women. He didn’t utter a world and disappeared.

“Why is he always like that?, he doesn’t ever say goodbye before disappearing!” Cyra said angrily.

“Prince Andreas has never been a type to smile often. I’ve know him since I was a child. He does not know his mother, people believe he was adopted while some believe he was made the chosen one by mistake. He is actually heartless when it comes to the feeling of love, he has no friends nor people to Talk with. I’ve never know Andreas as a happy person.” She said. Cyra felt a bit bad for the poor Demon troll.

“Wow. He is really annoying though, his blue eyes are something else.” Cyra said. Farima chuckled.

“Do not tell me you me you have begun to fall for the demon troll.” Farima said. Cyra chuckled nervously.

“Of course not, he is simply really annoying.” She said.

“Okay, if you say so.” Farima said. “Thanks for accepting me princess Cyra, I’ll never let you down and I appreciate allot.” Farima said. Cyra simply smiled happily and then held her arm.

“You are my friend now Farima,” Cyra said. “And friends do not thank each other because it’s our job to have each other back” Cyra said. Farima nodded happily.

“I need to return and scare King Gurland, I want to show him that he is powerless in front of me!” Farima said. Cyra chuckled.

“Be careful though, bye bye.” Cyra hugged Farima before she disappeared. Immediately Farima disappeared, the thought of her father graced her mind and she immediately disappeared and appeared in his room where she found him already sleeping. She was sure he was tried from the journey and thought she was asleep as well. She smiled at his figure which laid on the bed. Her father was indeed a calm creature. She loved him a lot.

Appearing in front of King Gurland, Farima smiled dangerously at the terrified king. Dromanda could not help but laugh at the kings face. Though he laughed silently so as to not get into any trouble.

“Why do you look scared father?.” She asked.

“How did you get your powers back, it is the chosen one doing isn’t it?” King Gurland asked uncertainly.

“Oh shut up, I’m stronger than those chosen ones. I got my self free, you cannot harm me father. And here is a taste of your own medicine!” She shoot a spell at him. King Gurland immediately collided with the floor. No guard in the room dared to stand before Farima.

“How dare you!” He wanted to throw a fire spell at her but was stopped by Dromanda held king Gurland arm up in the air with his powers. King Gurland was indeed fascinated with Dromandas new attitude. He simply stared at him calmly and got up.

“And how dare a servant stop his king!” King Gurland shouted at the top of his voice.

“Your Highness she is your daughter!” Dromanda said. He was scared of what would happen to him next.

“Dromanda, do not get yourself involved in this.” Farima said pleadingly to Dromanda who calmly moved back. But before he could disappear, king Gurland immediately casted a spell that sent the pope ogre falling to the ground. Indeed that angered Farima and she immediately casted her own spell that sent king Gurland flying across the room.

“It’s a mad house here!” One guard said to the other as he tried to maintain straight face. King Gurland was indeed shocked as to how strong farimas powers had become, he couldn’t understand how a child could disgrace him so miserably in front his servants.

“Get out from my palace you two and never return!” King Gurland yelled loudly. Farima took calm steps towards him and stared at him with a smirk.

“This is only and example of how you shall continue falling dad. Like I’ve always said to you, I can never forgive you for killing my mother. You shall pay with your life king Gurland!” She warned him. He stared at her and erupted into laughter.

“We shall see who shall win this game princess Farima. I can see the chosen ones have made you think you are stronger. I want to send a message to them through you,” King Gurland said. “Tell then that I have my army ready and I swear I’ll not rest until there is no longer a single troll in the mystic world” King Gurland said. She stared at him calmly and then casted a spell that made both her and Dromanda disappeared.

“Where are we?” Dromanda asked when he found himself in a house other than that which he knew.

“This is a house I’ve been making for years. It is ours now father, make yourself at home.” Farima said.

“You know you grew up to be as beautiful as your mother.” He said.

“How did king Gurland marry my mother when she was to be your Queen?” Farima asked.

“King Gurland seized most of my possessions, he wanted to take my powers but found out they were too strong for him to take. When he saw my wife Melan, your mother. He wanted her for himself and so he married her along with his 60 other wives which He eventually killed when they all had girls.” Dromanda said. Farima listened intensively.

“King Gurland doesn’t know you are not his daughter. Because I and Melan made you when she was still his captivity. So he thinks you are his child.” He said.

“Why did he not kill me when he got to know that I wasn’t a man ogre but a woman ogre?” She asked.

“He was about to burn you which he did. The moment he turned around to walk away you began crying again. That was when he knew that you were not an ordinary baby and decided to keep you.” He said.

“King Gurland is a wicked man and I promise to ruin him father. I’ll destroy him”

She said sternly.

“But be careful Farima. King Gurland is strong and trust me, he’ll destroy whoever stops his plan. He doesn’t mind if you are his child or not.” Dromanda warned. Farima nodded calmly. She knew what she had to do, she was going to destroy king Gurland no matter what. He deserved to die and he shall taste it soon.

Dromanda stared at his daughter calmly, he knew all she wanted was vengeance. Not just her but him as Well. He could not wait for the day where he could sit on his throne and watch King Gurland die. He craved for peace and peace he shall get. He knew just what to do to get that.
