The Thorn Ladies

"Mom, Can you tell us a story?" "Of course, your grandmother used to tell me this story that's why your mother believes in fairies, The title is 'The Thorn Ladies'... Once upon a time, In the kingdom of Oceania, A princess is born with a power to control the water, his father kept this to the people of Oceania because he thought that her daughter Sereia must be cursed of something so he imprisoned Sereia to her room for 18 years until Sereia's father killed by an assassin that cause a chaos to the whole kingdom, since Sereia was the only heir to the throne she's the one whose gonna take the crown and lead the people that his father had left her. Before her coronation day, a Royal Maid spread some rumor that she is very ugly and cruel that's why his father imprisoned her for 18 years because of this, Sereia advanced the coronation day and put the most gorgeous dress. Everyone was surprised when she enter the door, She has a light skin with a very dark hair and a pointed nose, her eyes were shining when reflected to the sunlight. Her gorgeous face and dress make everyone embarrassed to what they said to her earlier. " As your new queen of Oceania, I promised that I'll improve this kingdom that my dear father had left me, As your queen you can rely on me and trust me-" " But how can we trust you when we never see in the past 18 years, ladies and gentlemen do you really want a person to rule our kingdom that we never even know?" The Duke said " Are you really gonna make a hypothetical suspicion to your new queen, Your my father trusted person but you couldn't trust his daughter whose his flesh and blood. Did my father do something wrong that you make that suspicion of me?" she said innocently said, The Duke felt embarrassed because of this. After the Coronation she planned the things that needed to be fix in her kingdom. She never blame her father why he imprisoned her because the curse power is came from her ancestors and it might killed anyone if she use her power but for the last 18 years she practiced everyday so she cannot hurt anyone, She promised to her mother that she will be a great queen. As she promised, she improved the Kingdom's Protection and the knights strength, she also change some law. She worked day and night until the people of Oceania trusted her. "Lila, get your self here, you bastard child!" "Wait Auntie, I'm just finishing the laundry " "You bastard! how could you this slow?!" Then she hit Lila. This is Delilah Briar but everyone calls her Lila, she came from a noble family but her father died because someone assasinated him,since she was young, the wealth is inherited to her evil Aunt Visha. Visha hated Delilah because of her father. Her father is the youngest child but the wealth is inherited to him instead of the eldest which is Visha, and now she put her anger to the innocent Delilah and made her life miserable. She's waiting to her 18th birthday so she can leave the miserable mansion, for the last 10 years of her life, she plan of what are she gonna do when she left and get her freedom. She's planning to be a Soldier or a Warrior so in this way she can kill the person who killed her beloved father but when she think about that, there's no woman that ever been a Warrior and a Soldier so she think of a solution that might help her to break the law of the society but this plan still bothering her because she didn't know if this made-up plan can possibly make her a Soldier or a Warrior. She didn't get enough education since her Aunt Visha stop her from having it so Delilah always go to the library to get a book and read it every night, she make sure to bring back to the book in the same condition. The librarian Mara see her everyday and they became close, and she is the only person that Delilah ever been closed too but the fate plays on her, when she was 12 years old Mara told her that she was forced by her parents to marry a 32 years old man even though she is only 21 years old at that time, The day that Mara left is the second most traumatic moments of her life, she can even recall all the things she says ' Lila I know life has been tough on you and me but remember every hardship will paid off. Delilah with or without me I want you to enjoy your life and chose the path that you think is good for you and don't be like me, society and my family hold my neck like a begging cat who live to be they're souvenir unlike you who have an opportunity to stand up and be whatever you want to be that's why I want you to be yourself even though the world declined ' Those words were her motivation and strength everyday, that's the reason why she endure all the pain that her Aunt Visha had caused to her mentally and physically. When she turn 18 years old, she left the mansion and change her Identity, she cut her hair like a man, since she has been doing exercises about fighting everyday, she gained muscle and endurance so this can help her fooling the general. she goes to an identity of a man namely Arnold Ruther, she also left her cruel kingdom so her Aunt Visha can't haunt her anymore. She walk and walk until she goes to a kingdom named Oceania. The general agree to let Delilah or should I say Arnold to train with the well-experienced and entitled Warrior. Her first day was tough because the higher rank insulted him for being a beginner but this doesn't bother Delilah since she got used to be insulted everyday. She worked hard even at night, she still training herself and become stronger in a short period of time. " Celestinia those book of yours doesn't gonna go anywhere so I suggested that you go marry a wealthy man" Her father said jokingly "Father these book are not useless this books make your daughter a scholar so be proud" She said "But Celestinia you have a very pretty face, don't waste by just reading a book" Her brother said "Atleast I'm smart unlike you, you are dumb but strong, your always fooled by other but your smart at making tactics to your group so I cannot blame a person like you to be useless to this society " She said and her brother just make faces at her and they all laugh. This is Celestinia Terrestrial a noble girl from the Terrestrial Family and this is Her Brother Marcus Terrestrial, Celestinia was a bright genius girl, she finished school at the age of 15 and she is the first girl to be a scholar in the Nothern Kingdom. She dedicated her life to discover things that still weren't found by the human-being but for now she thought of teaching the childrens first. Her life is almost perfect, everyone knows her, she is gorgeous and smart unlike Sereia and Delilah.
