The Beginning

Main title

Once upon a time, there was a small kingdom nestled in a rich and green countryside. And in this kingdom, was a small town. A town of a thousand people, a thousand houses, a thousand shops, and even a thousand cats and dogs roaming the streets. This particular kingdom of a thousand proportions had a name, and it was Golden Crown.

Golden Crown had had a long, interesting history of events throughout its time, since many of the most fearful and yet exciting things appeared at its gates. From trolls to ogres to giants to mad witches, almost every one of them has reared its ugly face to the town and the townspeople, wreaking havoc and sending them scattering and fleeing into their houses or the nearest refuge. And thus, Golden Crown also had a thousand tales graphically written into its record, many titled for the fearsome monster attacks received by the town. So it was only surprising to many from faraway lands that a town so vivaciously come upon by such terrible monstrosities was still standing despite all that it had been forced to go through. Yet, hardly did it come to the curious outsiders that both the town and the entire kingdom wore a veil of protection around itself from the evil wrought. And that veil was the symbol of the kingdom. The ruler and son of a great king, the kingdom was being protected by the Prince Mythos.

With his sword, and the knight who refused to leave his side for even a moment, the prince fought off every single monster that came within a mile of his kingdom and slew them all with such skill and bravery, the love for his people being what fueled him in the battle as he defended his kingdom from any that threatened his people.

The prince, so well-loved and well-treated by the townspeople, came to be known as Mythos the Chivalrous. At oftentimes, he went by the name of Golden Heart. A kind-hearted soul, Prince Mythos was never found in solitude, as long as his knight stayed at his side to protect him from any danger. His time as a prince, however, was shortening, and he was now ready to fully accept his duties as the ruler and soon-to-be-made king of all Golden Crown, which meant he also needed a princess for his queen. The townspeople, concerned only for the prince's happiness, wished dearly for the one princess that would bring joy and love to his eyes, and hoped for both to rule in harmony and peace as they should.

This, however, was only the least of their troubles. In fact, they were about to begin, as something evil approaches across the horizon that none were aware of. And soon, not even the most gruesome ogre could unleash a greater terror than what they all were about to face.

And thus, began the story of Golden Crown, the prince, his knight, a princess, and a girl who dared to dream.
