Finn sat sadly on the steps to the throne.
Dead bodies were being moved and injured people were being attended to.
Guards like Finn's father were talking with the king.
Finn just sadly sat down thinking of his failure.
"I couldn't save Amanda," he said to himself. "And Luowski is dead! I never actually truly wanted him dead!"
"Finn!" yelled a voice.
Finn looked up and saw his best friend, Dillard Cole, running towards him.
He wasn't a knight, he was a farmer, but still great friends with Finn.
Finn had given him several sword fighting lessons however, and he was pretty good.
His family had just recently been traveling and must've gotten back just tonight.
"Hey Dill," Finn sighed.
"I've heard about what happened," said Dillard. "Finn it wasn't you're fault!"
"I feel like it is," said Finn. "And I want to make this right."
"And you may," said Wayne stepping up.
"What do you mean your highness?" asked Finn.
"I've already had the mages send message via magic-radio to all the other kingdoms," said Wayne. "We must bring the bravest knights together to go on a quest."
Finn suddenly jumped to his feet.
"A quest!?" he gasped.
"Indeed child," said Wayne. "We must bring everyone together to decide who will go."
Finn nodded.
"I suggest you go home child," said Wayne. "Don't worry about Amanda. I'm sure…my daughter…will be fine."
Finn nodded uneasily and walked over with Dillard to his parents.
They all walked out of the castle to wait for the next day to come.
Soon enough, tomorrow came.
By late morning, every kingdom had arrived at the high kingdom.
The kings and queens with their bravest knights, old or young, arrived with them.
Finn was amazed at how many people there were.
Human or elf, it amazed him.
Soon enough, Wayne called for order as he sat on his throne.
"My fellow kings, queens, and brave knights," he said. "We have all been brought here because we face a terrible crisis."
He sighed heavily.
"As you may know, and if not," he said. "Maleficent, the dark witch, has returned to Disney."
Everyone gasped loudly and some screamed.
"And not only that, she has recruited the Queens of Darkness to help her," said Wayne. "And she has also kidnapped my daughter, Amanda."
"From what she said," said Wanda. "She intends to use her for a ritual involving some great evil."
"Well we are not going to let that happen!" yelled Wayne. "Which is why I have brought all of you here, so that we may chose brave knights to embark on a quest!"
Everyone cheered at the word quest.
"And when there is a quest," said Wanda. "We must bring forth our oracle to give us our guidance and direction."
Wayne nodded and motioned two guards to do something.
They nodded and disappeared out of the room.
They returned a few minutes later both holding onto a figure wrapped in white straps like a mummy and had a see-through veil covering her from her head like a hooded cloak.
This was the kingdom's oracle, Mattie the Weaver.
Each oracle told their knowledge in different ways.
Mattie would weave together a map and the quest, and they would be given out.
She was also blind and only saw through mind reading.
Mattie was sat down on the ground and given different fabric and weaving tools.
Wayne then positioned himself near her so she would only read his mind of what the quest was about.
She would then start weaving the quest.
And as soon as Wayne was near her, she snapped to attention and began to work.
"A great force evil threatens Disney again," said Mattie. "Only by the power of five can this darkness be condemned."
She wove her thoughts as she spoke with amazing speed.
"One from each kingdom alone must rise," she said. "No more than five, or shall face a great demise."
Everyone just watched her work.
"Maleficent has found a strength, but it can be undone," said Mattie. "A Sword a Truth, made from dragon, but there is only one."
She continued to weave.
"Located in Holly Kingdom, near Fantasmic Cliff," said Mattie. "Used by one hero can send evil into the abyss."
She was almost finished."
"You must hurry now, three days left," said Mattie. "Before the full moon rises, and the demon resurrects."
She finished weaving and then sat silently, not saying a single word.
Oracles never spoke unless they were being used for certain occasions, like this.
She was then guided out and Wayne picked up what she wove.
It was a map, leading to first the cliff where the sword was located, and then to Maleficent's lair.
"Well you heard her," said Wayne. "One from each kingdom must travel to get this sword in three days to stop Maleficent."
Everyone looked at each other.
"So," said Wayne. "Who will come?"
So I forgot to mention that Dillard was in this story. He was meant to be in the first chapter, but I forgot him. He will have a big part in the story. And we just got Mattie's cameo. Also I forgot to mention this story will seem a lot like the movie, Your Highness. So stay tuned!
See you next update! Review please dearies!
