AN: I've tweaked the geography of the Enchanted Kingdom a bit. Mostly because the game has some weird nonsensical geography.
It started with a simple accident.
A simple accident that, had circumstances been different, would have had no consequences of any note whatsoever.
Klibkem the goblin was working on the roof of the palace. Some tiles had broken loose and needed fixing. Nothing particularly serious. But with the eighteenth birthday of Princess Kalus and her coronation a mere two days away, everyone was working hard to ensure that the Royal Palace was in peak condition.
Far below, Queen Theena was deep in thought. The vision that the Mystic had shown her was...disturbing to say the least. Trolls at the Palace walls themselves, the Goblin Guard fighting desperately to protect the palace as Kalin the capital city of the Enchanted Kingdom fought for it's very survival and Kalus nowhere to be seen.
Theena shook her head. She had known in her heart for a while that she was not going to crown Kalus. The girl lacked the charm a queen needed, the ability to make others feel at ease around her. Not like her beloved Kameo. Kameo could make people smile without effort. People liked her. She was the better choice. The gods had clearly forseen this when they had sent Kameo to the Royal Family all those years ago.
No, Kameo would make a fine queen.
Far above, on the palace roof, Klibkem swore. The simple rooftop repair job that he was supposed to be doing was in fact something far more complicated. He was going to need more tools and more help. He turned and suddenly his hammer slipped off and began to fall. He swore once more. Just how much worse was his day going to get today?
Theena continued walking. History would judge her to be right, of that she was sure. She would not allow her lesser daughter to destroy the Enchanted Kingdom. She would not allow the legacy of her beloved Solon fall.
It is a curious fact that despite the fact that the Enchanted Kingdom floated, objects still experienced gravity in exactly the same way. They accelerated towards the ground at a rate of nine point eight metres per second per second. And much like it would do so in any other part of the world, it meant that Klibkem's hammer had gained an exceptional amount of kinetic energy by the time it reached the ground. Or rather, in this case, Queen Theena's head.
The effect of the impact was almost instantaneous.
Queen Theena was instantly killed. And the Enchanted Kingdom would never be the same again.
Meanwhile, high above and completely oblivious to what his mistake had just caused, Klibkem swore, cursing away at the gods about his misfortune.
