Soooo… not dead! Yay!
I know that my main story at the moment is The Seventh Stone, and I am writing chapter 8 at the moment.
This is just a little oneshot thing I came up with today in my English lesson. We were told to write about an inspirational figure, and me being me, I put my hand up and asked if they could be fictional. Around halfway through, I was like "this looks like a fanfiction…hmm… I'll post it when I get home."
So that's exactly what I'm doing.
Shout out to Sarah, my little ginger friend! Do not leave you bag in the library again (even if it is a Hufflepuff one. Girl has taste.)
SPOILERS (DUH)
DISCLAIMER I DO NOT OWN THRONE OF GLASS. IF I DID GAVRIEL WOULD NOT HAVE DIED.
STORY OF THE POST: Tricksters and Gods by sakurademonalchemist. It's a really good Loki-is-Harry story that should be read and appreciated by the masses.
So, on with the story!
INSPIRATIONAL PERSON
At 8 years old, she witnessed her parents' murder, and saw her country fall to Ardalan.
At 12, she gained the title of Ardalan's Assassin.
At 17, betrayal sent her to the Salt Mines of Endovier.
At 18, she won the title of King's Champion (the person who would keep his opponents "silent as the grave.")
At 19, she killed both the King of Ardalan and the Queen of the Valg.
She is Queen Aelin Ashryver Whitethorn Galathynius.
She is Celaena Sardothien.
When a king sent an assassin after her the day that she woke between her parents' slaughtered bodies, Aelin became Celaena, and she trained to become an assassin herself, under the tutelage of the King of Assassins, Arobynn Hamael.
Celaena had the strength to go on.
At age 12, she killed a man for the first time, and took the first step to becoming to most feared assassin to ever be seen on the continent.
She had the determination to see her homeland once again.
When she was sixteen, she "set fire to the Pirate Lord's hall, freed his slaves, and looked damn good while doing it."
Aelin had the strength to keep going, and the morals to do what was right.
At 17, Ardalan's Assassin was caught, and sentenced to 9 lifetimes of labor in the Salt Mines of Endovier.
Her name was Celaena Sardothien – and she would not be afraid.
A year in the mines leeched the colour from her skin and the flesh from her bones. Yet when she was brought before the Crown Prince of Ardalan, she would not kneel before him.
She bowed to no-one.
There was a competition to become the King's Assassin. Fresh out of a death camp, Celaena won.
Strength.
Celaena couldn't kill the king's targets – not for him – so she warned them. Told them to hide.
Honor.
At 19, she revealed herself as Aelin, alive and well, as she shattered his glass castle and killed him.
A woman with the virtues of a queen.
On Midsummer's Day, the King of Ardalan fell.
And Aelin went home.
