Arriving at the castle, I began to wonder what the king was like. Thinking about how things worked in the Middle Ages (I think that's where I am)I began to worry. What if they thought I was the devil or something like that?
I was led into a great room. At the far end there sat King Andrew, as I had started to think of him.
"Leave us now!" he bellowed, and I began to think he might be drunk. The peasants backed out of the doors respectfully. I know I wasn't supposed to notice, but right before he left the youth sent me a fleeting glance. When he saw that I saw he blushed and hurried out more quickly.
"Well, now lady. I suppose we both know why you're here." he said softly, as if something was troubling him.
" Well, Ki, milord, I actually do not know why I am here." I said carefully. His eyebrows went up and he suddenly had a look of deep caution.
" You must know of the prophesy..." he said, his voice trailing off into the distance when he realized I didn't.
" Very well, very well. We shall have to go from the beginning." he said with a troubled look. So he began:
" Long ago there lived a Prophetess. Prophetess Danae was without doubt the most accurate prophetess anyone had ever seen. Every prophesy she made later became real. From wars to marriages to births to people...it all came true. In her last breath, with clouded eyes, she made one last prophesy:
As end of Maeth draws ever near,
A fair haired maiden will appear,
With her she carries a pendant of mine,
She'll be in pain when she crosses the line.
Eyes brown as earth,
And nails of green,
This maiden will become queen,
When terror dwells upon the land,
It will be her job to command...
She then died, the prophesy unfinished. Ever since then, more then a hundred years ago, we have always waited for the end of Mae. We knew that some day the prophesy would come true. The people all waited to see her pendant, and were all curious as to what the maiden would look like, but in truth, royalty such as I worry more about the terror that is to rule the land. As well as the fact that the prophesy is unfinished." he finished at last. By now he looked weary, as if he'd just run a marathon after not sleeping for a week. I now noticed the dark circles under his eyes, and the knots in his hair. He must be really worried. Wait...whoa...So what if I had blond hair and brown eyes...and green nails( stupid me, decided to put on green nail polish)...and...and...the pendant. Putting my hand in my pocket I drew it out.
"If this is the pendant you are looking for, then I think I am the one you have been waiting for." I said, raising it for him to look at. He gasped and leaned forward.
" It has come back." his eyes darkened, " when it has come back I know there is no stopping the terror, whatever it maybe". For me all of this information was coming as a shock. These people had been waiting for me for a century, and they expected me to save them from some terror. Suddenly it all hit me full force. Josh, the dream, the river, the people gathered around me, and now this. Everything went black, and before the ground disappeared, I felt completely calm.

As per usual, please review! Okay, I know this one is a bit shorter, but I'm having a bit of a writers block. Wish me luck.
