It took me a lot longer than I thought to type up, but I finally finished the first chapter of Powerful, my new story idea. I'm going to occasionally write more, but I'm still heavily focusing on Rose. I just wanted to give you guys a peek at what I have been working on all week. Originally it was in third person, but after a lot of thought I decided first person was better so I had to completely transcribe it. It's been an adventure. Anyway, here's the first look at Powerful.
Powerful
Chapter 1
The problems all started back when I was barely seven
years old.
That
was when Mother and Father began to speak only in whispers, and their grown-up
friend, Nodah, stopped coming to play with my brother, Elion, and me. I was much too young to understand why
everything had suddenly changed; all I knew was that I hated the sick feeling
that sat in my stomach whenever I was inside the castle. The few times I asked why everything
was so strange, Mother shushed me with her usual, “Not now, Kylanore,” and sent
me outside.
As
King and Queen of the Northwest Kingdom of Tykra, Mother and Father had always
kept to themselves and out of the critical eye of the public, primarily the
ever-watchful Council of Four who maintained balance between the Four
Kingdoms. I never would’ve noticed
things had actually changed, except Eli began to copy their reclusive
behaviors.
