Chapter 1
Queen Alexia was running down the dark narrow halls of Telmar's castle, her home. Her husband,
King Hagan, was gone to war and would come back soon to find his newborn daughter Alexa. It has
been a month since Queen Alexia gave birth to her loving daughter Alexa. She loved her daughter
dearly, but she had to continue her mission. Before Alexa was born she hid Telmar's diamond in a
small chest in the garden of the castle. It had been Queen Alexia's favorite place of the entire castle
because of all the beautiful flowers. She had left a note to her loyal maid, Karida, to give to her
daughter when she turned 17. In the note she wrote clues as to where to find the chest key and
where to find the chest containing the diamond. It also contained her destiny and Telmar's secret.
She had faith in her daughter and knew that Alexa would make her proud. Queen Alexia had to hide
the diamond because of her blasted sister Ophira. Her selfish sister came to Telmar to steal the
diamond and use it's powers to take over Telmar and probably the world. Queen Alexia had to run
to the tower before her sister found her.
'Now that Ophira knows I hid the diamond, she will do anything to get it.' Thought the Queen.
She finally made it to the top of the tower when she saw her sister already there, waiting for her.
"Where's the diamond?" asked Ophira as she glared at her sister.
"It doesn't belong to you!" Alexia cried "I'll never tell you where I put it!"
Ophira grinned and started to walk up to her.
"Well then, since you wont tell me, I'll have to kill you!" said Ophira as she pulled out a dagger.
"You used up the rest of my patience, I'll find that diamond without you!"
"No! Please sister, think of the baby!" screamed Alexia.
"Don't worry I'll take care of the brat, after all, she thinks you died at birth." Said Ophira as she
stabs her sister in the chest.

A year has past since the murder of Queen Alexia. Ophira made sure that the news of Alexia's death
was of giving birth. As of the servants and maids, she threatened to kill them if they said anything
about the murder. And that's how Ophira got away with murder. Since then King Hagan eventually
married Ophira for, as Ophira said, it was Alexia's last wish. King Hagan and Queen Ophira had a
child of their own and named her Sarama.
Princess Alexa was now 1 years old and had a new baby sister, everything seemed to be well. Yet as
Sarama grew older, Alexa found out that her sister was a little arrogant, conceited, spoiled brat.
Ophira kept her promise to Alexia and 'Took care of that brat'. Queen Ophira would beat Princess
Alexa until she was near death itself. All her childhood Alexa lived in fear and was beaten by her
wicked stepmother. Alexa once tried to tell her father about what Ophira was doing to her, yet her
father would not listen to her. As soon as Ophira found out that Alexa tried to tell her father she
beat Alexa even worse. Alexa always tried to hide from everyone else, she would explore the
castle's secret passages, and eventually knew the castle so well she could explore in it with her eyes
closed. Her favorite places in the castle would be the library and the garden. She loved to be in the
library because of all the books that educated her on Telmar and it's surrounding countries. She felt
safe in the library because it had many large bookshelves and a various amount of rows. Alexa liked
to think of it as a maze, she would find a few interesting books that she hadn't read yet and go to
her reading chair. Around the middle of the library in a corner is where she discovered her reading
chair. She never knew what a reading chair was doing there, nor who would be silly enough to place
it there, but it was still her favorite place in the library.
The garden was, to Alexa, the most beautiful place in the world. Of course it was a little naïve of
her to say this seeing as she never traveled anywhere out of Telmar. Yet Alexa still considered this
the most beautiful place in the world.
Alexa was now 17, and was just in one of the castles hallways looking at the paintings on the wall.
She had heard from her father a few days ago that they were expecting visitors. He called them
'Narnia's Barbarians'; they were to come to Telmar to discuss an alliance of some sort. She didn't
know very much about Narnia or these barbarians. The only thing she ever read about Narnia was
about where it was situated and a little about it's creatures. 'I wonder if Karida knows anything
about these barbarians?' wondered Alexa. 'Perhaps I shall go ask her now, I'm sure she's not too
busy, and it's not like I have anything important going on.' She thought. 'Although I never have
anything exciting and new happening really, seeing as I'm a princess. In the books I read the princess
always has a prince charming and some sort of adventure. Why does my life have to be so formal
and dull all the time?' she wondered. Alexa went to go check her chambers for Karida. If anyone
would know anything about these barbarians it would be Karida. She knew everything about other
countries and it's people. Alexa opened the door and looked around her room, her neatly made bed,
and the light of the sun shinning into her room because the curtains were opened. She heard a noise
come from her bathroom and decided to check it out. Inside, Karida was folding some fresh towels
before she looked up to see Alexa standing in the doorway with that same look on her face. Alexa
usually carried a neutral look, one that is mysterious and seemed as though she was deep in
thought.
"Good day Miss, what brings you here? You're usually off wandering the castle until supper." Said Karida
"I had a question for you, I was just wondering if you knew anything about these Narnian's? And
why are they such barbarians?" Alexa asked
"I suppose you heard about the visitors" Alexa nodded "Well they are from a land called Narnia
which is situated East of Telmar. Unlike most royals they have four monarchs that rule the land.
The High King Peter, King Edmund, Queen Susan and Queen Lucy. They were given the name
'barbarian' because of some of there strange habits." Replied Karida.
"There are no princes or princess'?" asked Alexa a little disappointed.
"I'm afraid no." said Karida
"So I suppose Telmar will be greeting more old Kings and Queens." Said Alexa. Karida laughed at
this remark.
"Depends on what you consider old Alexa, I believe one Queen is your age. Let me see here.." said
Karida while trying to remember their ages. "Ah yes, the High King would be 21 which would
mean Queen Susan would be 20, King Edmund 18 and Queen Lucy would be 17, or is that 16. Oh
well I can never remember but I am certain it is around there." Said Karida
"Well I suppose that is not that bad. Thank you for your help Karida." Said Alexa as she smiled.
"Anytime miss." replied Karida as she watched Alexa exit the chamber. 'The time is coming when
the note shall be passed on to Alexa. She doesn't know about her mother yet, it has been so hard to
keep this promise but I must stay loyal to Queen Alexia even if she's gone. I hope Alexa is ready for
her journey, let's hope she can stop Queen Ophira before it is too late.' Thought Karida.
