Hey everyone this is my first story so I hope you guys enjoy it.
The morning brought cold chills over Moonhaven, a sure sign that winter is on its way. The queen walked along the corridors of the palace looking up at the ceiling to see marvellous painting that decorate it. Her sparkling dress of emerald green leaves and silky white petals shift as she turns to face a doorway blocked by a large coiled fern. As she walks up to it the two guarding leafmen in snow white armour bow and speak in unison.
"Good morning, your majesty".

I smile at the two and keep walking. The fern uncoils as I walk towards the entrance. Inside I am greeted by luminous ray of light peering through the cracks in the ceiling. I reach the centre of the chamber where I spot a small sapling sprouting from the soil. I crouch beside it, touching its stem with my hand.
"Well little guy, it doesn't seem like winter has treated you very well." I chuckle as I give the plant life with my power, making the frost recede.
I hear foot steps behind me and a familiar, serious voice calling my name. Smiling I stand up and hide behind a purple tulip. When he reaches the centre of the room, where I was I bring down a vine to wrap around him. Unsurprisingly the handsome man struggles for a while, and then stops realising that it's only me.
"You look so cute in the winter uniform, Ronin." I smile coming out of my hiding place.
"Good morning Queen Tara, you wished to see me?" He straightens his helmet as the vines uncurl off him.
"Yes, as you know the bogans have been enclosing in on our boarders ever since the summer solstice."
"The bogans have become more powerful with new unknown weapons at their disposal." He adds with concern. "Your majesty, I fear if we don't figure out the source-"
"So serious, do not worry Ronin we will figure this out." I interrupt. I can't bear to see him so upset. "You said a scouting team managed to obtain some of their arrows?" He nods.

The queen and I enter a room, in the middle is a table with the black shining boggan arrows. She and I with a few other leafmen guards surround it. I could see one of the guards is in high discomfort, trying not to scratch or fiddle with his uniform. I stare at him coldly until he stops and stand still like a rock. I know the winter uniform I highly uncomfortably but it is compulsory to wear it, fighting would be harder if we did not have armour that blended within our environment.
I hate winter. It kills the plants that we are trying so hard to protect and regrow, which just makes it easier for the baggans to invade. I snap out of it and face Tara.
She holds the arrow ever so careful, her dark beautiful hair waving at every slight motion that she turns her head. She then looks up at me, eyes shining like a thousand stars dancing.
What are you thinking Ronin, snap out of it. I say to myself. She is the queen, you're her general it will never work out.
"Is this ice?"She asks with the sweetest of voices.
"It appears so my queen and we think the boggans may have somehow infused it with rot, that's all we have gathered." The cadet who was anxious earlier answered.
"Ice you say, well I think it's time we have a visit from a good friend of mine." Tara's face lightens up as she says. She then puts down the arrow and left the room with me tailing behind her.
Friend? Which friend?
