"Waves of the ocean bend at her will,
with the might of a thousand storms,
Wielding her trident with a flawless skill,
the limits of magic she refused to conform."
Thea's PoV:
I brushed my long teal hair. I then put on my favorite dark blue dress. It had short sleeves and wavy ends on the bottom of the dress. I was soo excited! Today was my 14th birthday and I was going to be given our royal family heirloom! The royal magical wand of the Butterflys! I could barely even think! I ran downstairs to meet my mom and dad in the throne room. My mother, Queen Artemis, held her wand beside her, like always. It was a bow and arrow shaped wand, with leafy vines adorned on it. She had light green hair, like grandma. My father, King Johnathan, had teal hair just like me. I walked into the throne room. My cousins and relatives all stared at me. I was a little nervous, I didn't know what to expect from using this wand. I hope it looks cool when I get it. I always was afraid that my wand wouldn't look the way that I wanted to be honest. I also was afraid that I wouldn't live up to the 24 queens before me. I was determined though, because I have a wand now, how hard can it be being a queen with a magical wand?
I walked up to my mother and father and curtsied. I spoke,"Hey, Mom. I'm uh...ready for my wand." My mother smiled at me and spoke,"Here you go dearest, but a word before you take it. This wand has great power, and such power must be protected and used wisely...lest bad things will happen. Do you understand, Thea?" I replied,"I very much do Mother." My mother then handed me the wand and suddenly it changed from a bow and arrow to a long blue-green trident. My eyes widened. I could feel the life force of the ocean swirling inside of me. The wand was a little longer than my arm. My cheekmarks, which were shaped like raindrops, glowed faintly as I held my wand. My mother then spoke,"Let it be known to all, that my daughter, Princess Thea Butterfly, has successfully obtained the royal wand!" The crowd cheered. Everyone then danced and a great feast was brought out. I had snuck out of the castle for a little bit to experiment with my wand.
I had an urge to go to the sea. So I walked to the seashore and held my wand firmly in my grasp. I then felt a vibration from my wand. I was confused, and tried to figure out why it was vibrating so. I then realized as I walked away from the sea, it would stop vibrating. Suddenly, words materialized in my head and I spoke them out loud,"Waves of the seas coming onto the shore, let no obstacle hinder you. Rise and fall freely with the tides, under the light of the moon!" Suddenly, the waves became a bit bigger and the water came up farther up the shore than before. My bare feet were completely submerged in water, even though I was well up on the shore. I looked at my wand in awe. Did...did I JUST make a spell?! How did I do that?! I was shocked, but also really excited! I had to go tell Mom! I then ran back to the castle with my wand in my hand.
My mother was talking to some people. I rushed into the ballroom. I then spoke,"Mother! You won't believe what just happened!" My mother then looked at me concerned,"What happened?! Are you alright, Thea?" I then spoked excitedly," I am more than ok! I am great! I just made a spell, Mom!" My mother then looked at me and smiled. She then spoke,"That soon? *sniff* You are growing up so fast, sweetie. I am so proud of you." She then gave me a big hug and spoke again,"You are going to make a wonderful queen one day, my little Thea." I smiled and spoke,"Thank you so much, Mom. I was so worried I was gonna not have an easy time adapting to using this wand. But then that happened, so I guess I was overreacting a bit, haha." My mother then chuckled and spoke,"I disagree. Preparation is a good quality for a queen to have. It aids you in taking care of the kingdom. I should know. I am the Queen after all." I smiled and then looked over at the food banquet before us. I spoke,"Did the chefs make any Heaven Pies?" My mother smiled and spoke,"Of course! Matthew just made a new batch, just for you." I giggled and spoke excitedly,"Ok,thanks Mom!" I then walked to the banquet table and grabbed about 4 of the Heaven pies.
I then snuck out of the ballroom again and went to my room for a bit. I grabbed the book of Spells, that my mother had given to me and started to skim through it. I had found Mom's chapter. I saw all the cool spells my great grandmas had made, so I figured I would attempt to do some magic with my wand. I saw a spell by my grandma, Queen Asteria which was named the 'Boost Self-Esteem Spell'. I saw the movements to do the spell and tried to do all of the moves correctly. I then said the magic words,"Sadness Begone! Ward off Agony! Let happiness and sunshine, to be delivered on to me!" My trident then glowed brightly and I then felt a rush of happiness course through me. I smiled brightly. "Wow! I can't believe that actually worked! That felt great!" I then heard an unfamiliar voice come from my book,"Well, of course it worked. You do have the wand, you know." I then gasped and spoke," Huh?! Who was that?" The book's pages then suddenly started to turn by itself and I then saw a blue skinned creature come from out of the book. I then backed away slowly and held my trident up. He then chuckled and spoke,"Haha, Thea, it's alright. I'm not here to hurt you." I then lowered my trident and spoke,"Who are you?" The little man then spoke,"I am Glossaryck, my princess. It is my sworn duty to help you in your journey in becoming a Queen of Mewni." I looked at him and then replied,"So...do you live in there?" Glossaryck then spoke,"Well, yes but actually no. I am a 'magical being' so I technically live inside the world of magic inside the book." I then spoke,"Wow, that is super cool! So, are you gonna be with me...like...forever?" Glossaryck then laughed and spoke,"Of course not! Only until you pass the book onto your 14 year old child." I then spoke," So...basically, forever." Glossaryck then spoke cheerfully,"Oh, don't look so glum, seashell. It's not as annoying as you may think. I bet that we are gonna have a lot of great times together. I like you. I think you are honestly, gonna be one of my favorites, seashell." I then spoke, incredulously,"Huh? What? I'm flattered but, you literally just met me Glossaryck. You don't even know me." Glossaryck then chuckled,"True, but I can sense things. Part of being a magical creature and all. Basically, I have an intuition that tells me things that I agree with and things that I don't. It tells me that you are someone I agree with. Let me tell you, some of your great great grandmothers drove me crazy!" I giggled and spoke,"I would love to talk more Glossy, but I'm getting a bit tired. That spell I did today kind of...made me tired. Why does that happen, actually?" Glossaryck explained,"You have magic inside of you. Specifically, as you may have noticed, your magic is tied to the sea. That means that you will probably be able to conjure your most powerful spells near the sea. However, when you use a lot of your magical power, it can drain you. So, your magic needs to recover." I then spoke,"How long will it take?" Glossaryck shurgged and spoke,"Depends. It could be days,weeks,...months." My eyes widened. He then continued,"There really is no way of telling to be honest. But getting some rest right now is a good idea." I yawned and spoke,"Alright. Good night, Glossy." Glossaryck then spoke,"Good night, Thea." I then put on my pink pajama dress and hopped into bed. I thought about all of the things that happened to me today and sighed happily. I then looked at my trident wand and closed my eyes. I then drifted off to sleep.
