by themoonprincesswhowasarabbit

King Apollo and Queen Serenity have much to thank the Gods for. They have a healthy daughter, a wonderful marriage and a peaceful kingdom. But an emerging threat appears in the form of an old face from the past, bringing an ancient prophecy into light.

1. Prologue

The morning the light first shone

The Twenty Four made our world home

With mortal love that pledged its power

And Immortal strength that began the hour.

Two lovers, one heart as man and wife

Chose death to bring Jorden to life.

Their friends to us pledged their lives

And became Kings to let our new world rise.

Twenty-four lands were theirs to rule,

Their law to love and let it rule.

The Immortals thus were Unalone

And lived in the seedling countries sown.

The world thee sees through thy eyes

Was made to shelter thee

But to make it last it asks our Crowns a fee.

All 24 kings must find wives

Else all forfeit their own lives.

A lifetime each to find one love,

One love for life and two lives for love.

To keep the bond two soul-mates left

At least 48 Royals must commit the theft

Of a heart that beats for the rogue alone

And hands itself to him-for his own.
