Flames in history

Merlina Wakes up from being unconscious and finds herself in a cave filled with bones and torches.she tries to get up and sees that her hands are tied. Merlina tries to find something to untie her hands and sees a sharp rock she goes to pick it up and the guy that carried her pulls her back. She then starts to yell and the guy says….

Kilgharrah: Your up? I see. There's no need to scream because I am not gonna hurt you. I'm just here to protect you.

Merlina: Protect me? From what? Why is everyone trying to protect me?Everyone is always hiding something from me, it is not fair.

Kilgharrah: I understand..But somethings are not meant to be told… I know you are still confused. I can explain a little but please do not try to run or scream. I just want help.

Merlina thinks for a second and nods her head to agree.

Kilgharrah: I'll start by explaining how magic was a thing….. Long time ago worlds were separated into powerful kingdoms...one kingdom was called Quaria kingdom filled with fairy magic people would go there to pray and give themselves to Adrean gods then there was Varean Kingdom filled with the magic of the sea. Pirates and traders would pray to the gods of Varean for a good sail or trade, Ekodor Kingdom filled with forest magic and Terid magic filled with fire magic. These kingdoms were separated but together. One day a baby with unique abilities was born.he was a sweet boy he didnt cry when he was born which mad his mother curious and confused but she still loved him ..but his father didnt care for the boy.One day the child was in the fields with his mother and his father came home drunk,His mother told the child to stay here and keep farming. His mother went to help her husband and the child heard his mother scream from his house,The child ran to the house and bust the door open and saw his dad choking his mother.The child runs to get his dad off his mother and he gets kick to the ground and the dad starts to go towards the child and the mother picks up a knife and tries to stab the dad. the dad grabs the knife and stabs his wife. The child looks in shock .The child feels a darkness in him . the boy then starts to see black dark magic around him and strikes the dad with magic making his body twisted and breaking his legs.After the dad was flipped around ,the boy loses consciousness and wakes up with guards around him. He gets dragged and put into a cage. The 4 kingdoms held a trial for the boy and the child tries to explain what happened but they don't believe him so they send him to get executed. the child sits in a ceil till one of the guards came to get him to send him to his death the guard looks at the boy and the kid puts a spell on him having him do whatever the kid said .the child acts as if the guard still is under the king's powers the child walks to the stand while the 4 kings watches him and the child looks up and his eyes turn black and he says something to put the whole kingdom under control. The child's name was Melvin but nowadays they call him the dark king.

Merlina looks in shoook as she heard that name cause her uncle has mention that name "dark King" she realizes her mother has work for the dark

Merlina: Where is he now?

Kilgharrah:...no one knows except you only you can tell if he's getting closer we don't know what his attention is. He killed all 4 kings and that's why we are separated now.

Merlina: Why did you want to talk to be and no one else?

Kilgharrah: You are very unique more than you think.When i first felt your presence you were in trouble I wanted to help you but I also was caught with fear…..Melrina I don't know your history but you have dark and light blood in you ….it usually means someone in your family has or had dark blood…

Merlina looks in shock not sure what to say but thinks what does he mean by felt your presence.

Kilgharrah: merlina it's okay to be confused you will learn over time.

Merlina:What do you mean by feel my presence?

Kilgharrah:...please don't be scared but the prophecy says Those Who are mixed with dark and light shall be connected with a protector of fire, a dragon.

Merlina: So….your a dragon? you don't look like a dragon?

Kilgharrah:well I didn't want to scare you and plus magic and dragons are forbidden in Camelot

Merlina looks at Kilgharrah still in disbelief because it's doesn't sound real she just wants to leave now.

Merlina: Uhhh well I just want to go home and sleep before I get in trouble so if you don't mind I'm going to go.

Kilgharrah: please come back when you have time I don't mean no harm and I'm sure your still curious.

The sun starts to set and Merlina runs through the forest feeling confused and worried she hears the noises in her head telling her shes a demon and its her fault her mom left , As she running she feels the flames from her body and sees the deer from her dream across her. she goes towards it and the flames over come her she looks at her body contolling the flames and feels a gust of wind in the sky a dragon covering her with her wings so she doesnt spread the flames,She starts to hear kilgharrah voice in her head telling her its okay and to come down.
