Chapter 2 - prologue : A Tale As Old As Time

In the world of Elysium, where magic flows through the veins of its inhabitants and power is a delicate dance, a prophecy whispers of an forbidden love that will shake the very foundation of the kingdom. It is a tale as old as time, woven into the fabric of destiny and entangled within the hearts of two souls, destined for both greatness and despair.

High up in the towers of the royal palace, a figure cloaked in shadows awaits her moment. Alina, the ancient seeress, known for her ability to glimpse into the future, gazes into the pool of reflection before her. The waters ripple and swirl, revealing glimpses of what is to come.

Whispers of a great transmigration reach her ears, a soul torn from one world and thrust into another. Alina's eyes widen in realization, for she knows that this is the one she has been waiting for. The one who will rewrite the very fabric of Elysium.

Her wrinkled hands tremble as she lifts a necklace, shimmering with a radiant blue gem, from the wooden table beside her. Clutching it tightly, she mutters an incantation, infusing the pendant with ancient magic. This necklace, a powerful artifact of transmigration, will act as the conduit to transport the essence of a soul across realms.

Alina's mind races, her eyes scanning the future within the pool. The vision becomes clear, showing a young woman, with emerald green eyes and raven-black hair, fated to be intertwined with the enigmatic General Kael. Her heart aches for the trials and tribulations they will face, for their love holds both promise and peril.

With a heavy sigh, Alina acknowledges the weight of her responsibility. She cannot change the prophecy, nor the path that has already been set in motion. The necklace glows brighter, crackling with untamed power as it hovers above the pool of reflection. Alina's voice is filled with both determination and sorrow as she sets in motion a course of events that will change the lives of many.

"May the fates guide you, dear Emma," she whispers, her words carrying the weight of centuries. "In this forbidden love, the fate of Elysium will be decided, and the echoes of your reflection will ripple throughout eternity."

With a flick of her wrist, Alina releases the necklace, watching as it vanishes into the waters below. Emma's journey is about to begin, a journey that will test the boundaries of love, loyalty, and destiny.

As the ripples fade, Alina can only hope that Emma will find the strength to navigate the treacherous path ahead, for the fate of a kingdom rests on her shoulders and the love that blooms in forbidden reflections.
