Prologue: A Princess of Darkness
A soft breeze blows across the sandy beaches of Noir Lune, the world of Darkness. It's a cool night, the moon shining foreboding across the ocean waves, a young girl runs across the beach letting out a playful scream and a laugh. A small tiger chases after laughing along with her. Even though there is little light during this time of night, the young girl can see perfectly, her eyes used to the darkness since birth.
She gets to the edge of the sand and lets the ocean water run over her bare feet, she turns and laughs as the small tiger jumps into the water splashing her. She walks away from the water and sits on the sand; she lays back and stares at the stars. The small tiger comes and lays down next to her, a few moments later she lets out a quiet sigh.
"Ralane, I keep having this horrible dream that something bad is coming...It makes me afraid." The small tiger nuzzles the girl, and responds quietly, "Sometimes Astra, we all have bad dreams, if you think that it is going to happen maybe you should try telling your mom about it."
The young girl called Astra nodded gently, "I think you may be right Ralane, I will tell her later."
They both lay there for a while longer and then as the night grew darker, they both got up and walked back to the castle they had come from. As they reached the castle doors Astra stopped and looked at Ralane, "I know that no matter what you will always be here to help me through it. That's what friends are for." She reaches down and hugs Jade and then they both walk into the castle.
Little did they know their journey was only beginning...
