Chapter 3: Fanelia

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

The bright beam shot down and left Krystel and Aria beneath the night sky. Yet it was clearly a different sky, for shining above them was not one, but two moons. But as Krystel peered at the 'second moon', she could see that it was no moon, but the Earth, the very planet she had been on seconds ago.

'Ahh, you have noticed the two moons' said Aria, as she saw the growing puzzlement on Krystel's face.

'But, but that's the Earth' muttered Krystel, her eyes wide with fear and amazement.

'Yes, but the people here call it the Mystic Moon. They do not know about the people living on your planet' Aria told her.

'But where are we now?' asked Krystel. And Aria, with a soft smile on her face, simply replied 'Gaea.'

Krystel and Aria were in a clearing, surrounded by tall, dark trees, like soldiers in the night. To their left was a dirt path, leading into the forest. A blanket of stars glittered above them, and over the tips of the trees, Krystel could see great, snow-capped mountains in the distance.

'Come, Krystel, we must go quickly' said Aria, 'we are awaited in Fanelia'.

'Fanelia? Where's that?' asked Krystel, 'And who's awaiting us?'

'You'll see soon enough' Aria replied, with what looked to Krystel to be a mischievous smile upon her face, if angels could be mischievous!!! And with that, they set off along the path.

As Krystel walked along, she began to see that not only great elms and oaks grew in the dense forest, but many trees she could not identify. They were tall and slim, with their leaves hanging in ropes, just like weeping willows. But what made these trees different, was that dotted on every rope of leaves, were many huge flowers, like stars of many colours, their petals shimmering in the moonlight that filtered through from above. Aria went over to a most beautiful tree, with flowers the colour of snow, picked a flower, and put it in Krystel's hair.

'Now everyone will know you are special' said Aria.

'But why?' Krystel was quite taken aback from the gesture.

'Because only the most special may wear them' replied Aria, 'I'll explain later' she added, seeing puzzlement once again take over Krystel's pretty features. And with that, they set off again.

They had only been walking for 5 minutes, when the forest suddenly stopped, and Aria and Krystel were at the side of a wide concrete pathway, leading up to the mountains. It seemed to be coming from a 'small village', but as they walked towards it, Krystel could see it was actually a very large town, with a great white castle at one end. It was so beautiful, with the rows of terracotta-roofed houses of white, and the great ivory castle at the head of the town. Moonlight reflected of its smooth surfaces, giving it a silvery, magical glow.

'We're here' Aria informed Krystel. They walked down the smooth, grey road, and eventually came to the castle. Awaiting them at the entrance were two people.

A man and a woman, standing arm in arm. The woman had shoulder-length, honey blonde hair, and wore a dress of emerald green. It was long, and made of silk, sleeveless, and had no decoration. Not that it needed it. The woman's golden hair was intertwined with emeralds and green silk ribbons. She wore elbow-length, white silk gloves, with a single emerald ring on her right fourth finger. The man had ebony hair, and was wearing a blue silk waistcoat over a white silk shirt, with puffs at the sleeves. He had tight white trousers with black knees high boots. They were both around 35, as far as Krystel could see. As her and Aria got closer, Krystel could see the faces of the two. The woman had emerald eyes, deep green and glittering, and full red lips. She was incredibly beautiful. The man's eyes were ruby red, like pools of liquid fire, and he was handsome beyond measure. Suddenly the man spoke.

'Aria, welcome back. So this must be Krystel. I am King Van, and this is Queen Hitomi. Welcome to Fanelia.'
