Dorothy Poetry Competition

Ancient Secret

In a world divided by ancient power and shadowed by the rule of four kings, 17-year-old Dorothy is thrust into a destiny she neither understands nor desires. Born in a quiet village and raised in the safety of an orphanage, her life changes forever when a mysterious old man tells her of the Celestial Eye, a legendary power said to hold the key to unimaginable strength—and a curse that could unmake her very soul. Unknowingly bound to the celestial forces through the old man’s love and an unsealed eye that glimpses fragments of the future, Dorothy embarks on a perilous journey to uncover the truth about her origins and the powers surging within her. Alongside her steadfast mentor Kael, the mysterious hunter Arden, and her childhood friend Mark—whose vast knowledge is as intriguing as it is suspicious—Dorothy must navigate trials of self-discovery, confront her deepest fears, and uncover secrets buried in the ruins of history. But as she delves deeper into the mysteries of the Celestial Eye, Dorothy learns that her world is far more fragile than she ever imagined. Elves whisper of a dying queen, shapeshifters lurk with centuries-old grudges, and a shadowy demon—an entity with a hunger for celestial power—looms closer than anyone suspects. The threads of fate begin to unravel when Dorothy discovers a past written in blood, a future painted in fire, and a prophecy that could either save her world or destroy it. Faced with ancient curses, relentless enemies, and an enigmatic villain hidden among her closest allies, Dorothy must decide if she’s willing to embrace the celestial power within her—or let it consume her entirely. In this tale of trials, betrayal, and the resilience of the human spirit, The Ancient Secret takes readers on a journey where the brightest lights cast the darkest shadows, and even the kindest faces may hide the deepest secrets. Will Dorothy rise to become a savior, or will the celestial forces claim her as their own?

His bitterness deepens when Lucia boldly declares she would rather kiss a monkey than ever fall in love with him.
