Prelude



Vallen opened her eyes, she felt dizzy and sick to her stomach. She took a deep breath and yelped in pain. She saw a figure rush to her side, "Here drink this," the figure said as he held a cup to her lips. Vallen took a sip, small at first but after she tasted it she greedily drank the rest of it.

"That was good, thank you." She thanked him. Then she tried to sit up but it immediately made her even dizzier and hurt her chest terribly.

"Hey, take it easy!" the figure said as he gently pushed her back down.

"Where am I? And who are you?" She asked after things had stopped spinning a bit.

"You're in the city of Valia, and I am the one that found you wounded and injured on the woods 3 days ago. I am Gabriel, heir to the throne of Linswa."

"Wait a minute if you're a prince shouldn't you be in a castle, and if you're also the heir to a throne, shouldn't you also be in Linswa?"

"I'll explain later, right now you should get some rest." Vallen wanted to know more, but didn't have the strength to argue with him. So she rolled over and went to sleep.
