The Realm of the frozen was among the many miracles of the FROZEN forest, And amongst the reasons why the FROZEN forest was known for its name...as frozen, was not only because of the endless winter with heavily falling snow, but it was also due to a knowledge known to only a few. The knowledge about the frozen Realm, located directly in its center, where time was frozen. An Area stagnant over time, totally different from the real world.
Apart from the enormous presence of the Thorn of TUTUS located in the south of the forest, while the wilderness of all wolves, used the north as their territory, the frozen Realm was like a time capsule where time was trapped at the slowest movements.
A day spent in this world reflects in the outside world as a century passage of time, and the reason was that, it was the chosen Realm of purity since the beginning of time, and it was heavily spell-bounded, with no single breach into it, until now.
It was the first Realm Satharus discovered of its existence, after he was banished from the Kingdom years ago. But due to the lack of knowledge of the spell, he could neither penetrate nor enter it, until the blooming of the Thorn of TUTUS.
The powerful TUTUS flowers have many secrets to them. To a folly-indulgent individual, with an inability to resist the gratification of whims and desires, it was simply the deadliest of all weapons. But to a wise and intellectual individual, with the noble traits to utilize knowledge with experience through common sense and insight, the TUTUS held the world's greatest secret to everything in existence...One could even attain and hold the world at its fingertip.
The example of Renderez Doez, who planned to use its knowledge for his selfish gain of power, led to his destruction in the process and nearly doomed an entire world to an irrecoverable stage. That was simply the least power within the TUTUS tree and its tremendous creation. Its destruction and benefits were far greater, but only to the wise. With the use of wisdom, the world simply comes to an individual within the reach of immense power, once it learns to seek and preserve the utilized knowledge of the TUTUS to its advantage.
Before Satharus left for the Dragonbreath Kingdom with the urgency to alert and prepared the kingdom for the intrusion of the Mogs, after hearing the news from Arabella and the kids, he placed them in the frozen Realm a few meters into the FROZEN forest, where a time-spell was casted, which Arabella didn't know of. The periodic time movement in that Realm was hidden from her by Satharus. He left her there to protect her from any impending harm in his absence, when he realized she was with child...King Rene's heir.
Therefore, Arabella and the kids spent a few weeks there waiting for Satharus's return.
Upon their endless wait which bears no good results of Satharus coming soon from his mission, Arabella gathered the kids to move towards the Sanander's home...That was their destination from the beginning.
Upon coming out of the Realm, Arabella realized a difference in everything, when they came out of the FROZEN forest, and trekked for days toward the Dragonbreath Kingdom. A whole different world was spread before them in its magical structure, much different from the world they had ever known and lived in all these years. But she had no idea they came out, long after their entire generation was no longer in existence, a whole different generation...Thousand years into the future. The time of civilization...
Arabella was amazed when she saw the tallest of grand buildings almost touching the sky, its heights, and great structure, with their sparkles, and the age of cars where a four-wheel metal could move on its own, without the attachment to a horse, totally different from the only means of transportation they knew, which were Carriages.
To her, it was the most spectacular sight she had ever seen, after the sight of the TUTUS tree. Arabella thought they had just appeared in an heavenlike realm, or maybe she was currently dreaming...One of the habits she developed ever since she discovered her pregnancy was dreaming, she mostly dreamt dreadful dreams occasionally. Sometimes, it is about the chaos the Mogs brought to their Kingdom, and other time, happy dreams about her time together with Rene, and with the Sananders. Those were amongst her happiest times.
A loud horn from a car jolted Arabella into her senses and brought her out of her frantic thoughts. She heard the silent whispers from the kids around her who were also overwhelmed with bewilderment, with their childish wonderous thoughts as kids, at the beautiful sight before them.
The mere whisper of the child before her... Seeta, made Arabella realize the unfortunate aspects of where they currently were. The strange clothing of the few humans they saw before them, left them further confused, about their current situation.
"Where is this place...my Queen?" Seeta's tiny voice rang into Arabella's thoughts.
But Arabella had no answer for the girl's curiosity, and neither does she know exactly where they were. It used to be the home she stay with the Sanander's when she married Rene Doez.
Arabella suddenly became confused as the rest of the kids. She wondered how an entire world could completely change in simply a few weeks they were away, and the once loving people living within the Sanander's home, no longer existed. An entire Kingdom, blooming with the liveliness of people suddenly changed into the strangest of all creation she had ever seen. And a hidden fear, as well as the insecurities of their situation overtook them, as Arabella imagined where in the world they just appeared into, a whole different world where they no longer feel a sense of belonging.
The clothing Arabella and the kids had on, were simply what she made with the few pieces of cloth Satharus gave her before he left. they were mere stockings and tunics for the kids, while she wore a long gown with sleeveless tunics and wimples to cover her long auburn hair. Sheepskin cloaks and woolen hats and mittens were worn in winter for protection from the cold and rain, which Arabella and the kids wore to protect themselves from the winter in the FROZEN forest. As well as leather boots which were covered with wooden patens to keep their feet dry and warm.
However, the weather they met when they arrived at the Dragonbreath Kingdom was a sunny afternoon, and people were under the hot sun. In the markets where she, Rene, and Zach used to roam, as they play hide and seek with her giggles filling the air, mingled with the chaos of trades, was no longer what it used to be. It was replaced by the tallest building, with pretty decorated trees, shaped in a garden within the building in amazing structures, with a huge stagnant fresh water, where women were gathered, half-naked under a hot sun. Arabella wondered where the decency of these women was, to walk around simply in their underwear.
Arabella noticed how they strangely stared at them, with humor lurking in their eyes. Some stared at them with a sort of ridicule for their appearance.
The only aspect of their formal world which looked the same was the FROZEN forest they spent weeks in. And yet, everything had simply disappeared, replaced with these strange creations and creatures respectively.
So Arabella decided to take an endless road across the mountains to seek shelter and food for their worn-out tired selves.
Their endless trek towards seeking a permanent place of stay led them searching for a few days on foot, until they came across a small village somewhere beyond the mountains, in the opposite direction they took after they later decided to follow their footsteps back to where Satharus left them. But the door to the Realm only opens upon a spell Satharus used, which Arabella couldn't make out.
Even the place where Seeta nearly died after being poked by a tree seemed strange. There was no more tree, it was like it never existed.
Upon arrival at the village which was quite populated with few peasants and farmers, Arabella and the kids went to seek shelter under a huge tree, which seemed familiar to Seeta, and she called Arabella's attention to it. Even Maridine, the other kid amongst them, also recognized that huge tree. It was a known area within their formal kingdom, where they used to run around, but it was once a huge garden, very wide with different colors of flowers blooming beautifully. But now, it was replaced with mere peasant houses, all in the wake of the intrusion of the Mogs, maybe.
"This is our Kingdom, my Queen. Our Kingdom also looks strange." Maridine voiced out to Arabella, to which Seeta nodded strongly, and Arabella began to notice the similarities within the area. The last thing she remembered about that spot, was where Rene used to bring her for their romantic picnic, and she used to sit under this tree as she watch Rene run around with Seeta and Maridine in the huge garden, as they all giggled from contented excitement.
Before Arabella could recover from the shock of what she just found out, a lady approached them.
"You must be new here...Are you looking to rent a home, you better come along, I have a spare room in my place, at low pay." The lady added.
Arabella followed the lady's gaze to where she pointed. Then she remembered it was where one of her servants, who attended to her when she became Queen, lived. They followed behind the lady who seems happy to have guests in her home. Arabella pleaded with the lady to them stay, and work for her as rent, which the lady agreed to. She gladly put Arabella to work immediately.
Time went by and Arabella stayed happily with the three kids, as they began to adapt to their new life in the village which was once their kingdom. Until it was finally time for Arabella's baby to be born into the world.
The time of Queen Rosaline's hard labor in the past, coincided with Arabella's labor in the future. They both bear the pains of extreme labor at the same time until they both gave birth to Rene Deoz and Zach Sanander's heirs respectively.
