Fandom: Odin Sphere
Pair: Mercedes and Ingway
Prompt: I want to go home. "well I want to go to the moon, but here we are."
Ingway was the son of the beautiful princess of Valentine. His twin sister, Velvet, and him were considered to be illegitimate due to her fraternizing with the enemy, King Odin. Yet, the people treated them as if they were legitimate. Their grandfather would rather have nothing to do with the children and ignored them.
The kingdom of Valentine was prosperous and friendly with the fairy kingdom. Ingway was always enamored in magic. He studied magic in Valentine and was interested in the fey's magical abilities. The prince took to the fairy kingdom and found himself involved in a deal of trouble.
He traveled through the forest and saw not many creatures. It was inhabited by frogs, but that wasn't anything he wanted to learn from. It wasn't long until he found himself among a young girl and an older man arguing.
"…Let me take care of it." He could tell the young girl fidget as if she felt uncomfortable in his presence.
Her blonde hair was carefully braided with a flower crown laying on top of her head. The White flowers framed her head and gave her an ethereal look. But her wings. Oh her wings! They were the most beautiful things Ingway had seen. They seemed to sparkle and follow her emotions.
"But Melvin…I- "
"There is no need to worry yourself Mercedes."
"But if there are people who wish to kill mother- "
"I will take care of everything." The way this Melvin spoke seemed to be filled with malice.
The girl seemed to notice this as well as she backed up from him.
"Melvin there's no way that it's true…." He sighed heavily as he stared at her.
"You will make a terrible queen after Elfaria has died. I'd thought to just use you as a figure-head, but it looks like you see more than you should." Ingway should have left these fey royals to themselves, but something about this situation screamed that he shouldn't.
"Stop!" The Valentinian stood in front of Mercedes and seemed to shock Melvin as he hit them both with a blast.
When Ingway opened his eyes all he saw was darkness. Bleak darkness. The blonde male heard a screech and looked toward the girl. She was frantically looking around.
"Where-where am I?" The girl cried and Ingway sighed.
He knew exactly where they were. This was Queen Odette's territory. The kingdom of darkness known as Hel. They said Odette was ruthless and let no one into her kingdom and she didn't let anyone out.
"If I'm not mistaken, your highness, Hel." Ingway stared at her and she stared with her large red eyes at Ingway. They glistened with fear and Ingway felt something claw at his own heart.
