In the year 1830.
In a land where both humans and every type of monster or magical creature you think about lay a young girl whose name is Octavia Anderson. She is Mr. John Lee's daughter the goldsmith and a farmer of a kingdom called Silven a beautiful and peaceful land where everyone lived with joy for many decades.
The kingdom had many mountains, at the bottom of them has a long wide river, with a series of moss and lichen-covered rocks. In the forest of Silven low trees hung overhead allowing only faint shimmering green light to penetrate to the forest floor. In these beams of light, brightly glowing dust and pollen swirled suspended as if in some thick liquid.
Butterflies danced across the kingdom drunkenly as dragonflies darted to and fro chasing mosquitoes. The water streams there trickled between the rocks as quick silverfish kicked their tails upstream. It always felt great o feel and see the beauty of Silven.
Her hair was a rich shade of mahogany. It flowed in waves to adorn her glowing, porcelain-like skin. Her eyes, framed by long lashes, were a bright, emerald-green and seemed to brighten the world. A straight nose, full lips - she seemed the picture of perfection. Had she smiled, the world would sigh with contentment. Had she laughed, the world would laugh with her. And had she wept, the whole world would want to comfort her. The girl has a really good sense of humor and everything else is just a bonus in a guy's eye.
Her hair- raven-black, her eyes: bright gray-green, long lashes, sparkling, eager, penetrating, cold, warm, fiery, knowing, and clever.
Nose: straight, perfect for her face,
Lips: rose, soft pink, They say perfection is a moving target, a mirage. Yet, when she spoke, her lips look very real. The perfect symmetry along with the cupid bow.., looks like god was drunk when he made her.
Shape: her body shape is the most ideal, the girl had the hourglass shape.
Skin: Glowing, milky white. Her beauty is beyond compare yet she was very simple and had very little needs. Everyone adored her not for her beauty but for her kindness towards everyone who met her in the kingdom, yes she was poor but always found a way to help those in need, she would work at her farm to provide for herself because she had no family, the girl lived all alone so there was not much to do around the house when she finished taking care of the animals, Octavia would go into the valley of the most beautiful flowers, pick a few to put on her table in her little home after that she would go to the mountains for a little hike, for her being alone all of the time was not easy.
She is an orphan, her parents died in an accident nineteen{19} years ago and there was no one else in the family to take care of her so she had to take care of herself as she was growing up it became harder for her to survive on her own, until one day she met an old farmer who took her in and loved her like his own, he passed away when she was 17 after he died she took care of his home and the farm.
Octavia's life was really hard and for some reason, she felt different from everyone else, little did she know her life was about to change forever very soon because of one very brave step that she will take. The people around the girl were mostly magicians. What the young girl loved the most was animals, children, and books, the things she hated were: liars and bully she absolutely despised those things. Everything about the girl and the kingdom is absolutely amazing and very unique. One day she went into the market to buy her groceries and sell some of her vegetables along with her fruits like strawberries, blackberries, and a lot more.
As she was selling she saw a drunkard harassing a little boy who was playing guitar, she went to confront the man, yes it was a bad idea but she did it anyway "sir do you mind leaving him alone?" she said, "mind your own business farm girl" the man replied, " aren't you ashamed, you are picking on a child for god sake" she said, "he got in my way, I suggest you get your ass out of here before you get hurt" he replied, the vendors there were peaceful, they will never tolerate someone harassing a child or a young girl "I suggest you get your drunken self out of this market before we whoop you boy" an old man said.
After the man left she gave the little boy some fruit along with a little bit of money and sent him home, "my dear you are so kind, very hard working and young too how come you are all alone out here?" the woman asked, "ma'am I umm I am an orphan I have no family but I do love it here" she replied, "aww I am so sorry dear if you ever need anything you ask, do not hesitate okay sweetie" the woman said, about midday the girl took a break from the market, went home, took care of her animals and took a hike up in the mountains after that. While she was picking some berries to eat on her hike, the girl felt as if someone or something other than herself was there, she got a little nervous but did not run away she kept on walking. She walked until she got tired, the girl could not go any further so she sat on a rock by a lake, a few minutes after she realized that she never saw this lake before and never traveled so far from her home especially all alone.
The young girl got up and took a look at the magnificent view, there she saw something sparkling before her eyes, she blinked and turned away, when she looked back she saw a pegasus a winged creature one of the most divines among them all and that too a pure black, she was fascinated upon seeing it. The Pegasus and unicorns had kept themselves hidden for years, Octavia wanted to touch the creature, she walked calmly towards it and stretched out her hands which contained an apple towards the pegasus " hello you are really pretty, I am not going to harm you come on" she said, he neighed in disagreement, it was now time for her to convince the creature into trusting her.
The horse then walked towards her and threw her on his back, he lifted his wings and flew away with her " Woah hey there umm I would like to be your friend but please take me down" she said, he took her high in the sky there she saw the entire kingdom and which to explore beyond it, "it is okay I do not mind staying up here forever" she said, he then neighed in agreement with her, then took her back to land, she came off of him "thank you for that" she said, the pegasus flew away and the princess went back home, well she felt that it could have been an animal or something that she ran from in the forest.
Later that afternoon the king and queen ordered some cake from the baker, who was apparently too busy to carry it so he asked Octavia to do it for him, she was nervous yes but did not want to say no to him, the girl took the cake and went up to the palace where the guards did not want to let her in until she got angry on them "the king and queen ordered this king do you want to be the one to tell them the reason the cake did not come, I suggest you let me through" she said, "okay ma'am you have a point" guard number one said, she smiled with them and entered the yard, the young girl was amazed at what she saw, the girl walked through the large, double french doors, that have a deep golden color. Her first step into the eerie castle echoed. She looked down at the cold, hard marble floors, each tile chosen with a specific taste in mind.
The girl took a glance around to see beautiful paintings all around the room. There was a set of double staircases, one on the left, one on the right. The railing of the staircase was exquisitely engraved with flowers and vines, never a one to be the same. There were six large stone pillars evenly spaced, to keep the castle standing. Each of which was elegantly carved to accent the Renaissance feel of the castle. To your left, there was a grand wooden door that leads to a very large library. To the right, there was a door that leads to a beautiful garden, with too many plants to even think about counting. Each one from a different place in the world, you could tell.
There was a moderate-sized fountain that showers water gracefully back to where it started. It was as if she was in a dream, the garden was not enclosed it lead to the mountains. The queen came to greet her "hello" she said, Octavia then bowed in respect "you can rise" queen Mary said, the girl then gave the queen the cake, Mary spoke softly to the girl and asked her to follow her to the kitchen which was even bigger than the girl's room,
"I have heard a lot about you Octavia, I could use a well mannered and hard-working person like you in this castle, if you are available I would like you to work for me, you will have a royal room and everything thing you need, you will be paid well too," the queen said,
The girl was amazed, "but I am just a farmer girl, why would you let me live in a royal room and be treated like a princess" Octavia asked, "your thinking is different, you deserve this, so what do you say?" the queen replied, "I would be honored" she replied to the young queen.
