Story Notes

A bonus story from The Lark’s Pearl, The Lark Prince offers readers a glimpse into Elias’s journey of self-discovery, magic, love, and the healing of a father-son relationship. For the full experience, be sure to read The Lark’s Pearl as well, as this tale may contain spoilers from the main story. If you have not yet read The Lark's Pearl, fear not. You can definitely start with The Lark Prince and then go into the main book.

FEEDBACK APPRECIATE: Several scenes are (in fact) copy&paste from Pearl, edited to be from Elias' POV. If there are repeat scenes, please comment where/when.

This story will be available for a very short time and is my entry in the Fantasy Worlds: Beyond Imagination writing contest here on Inkitt.

I would love to know what you think. Your feedback is appreciated as this story is intended to be included in a special edition hardback of my novella The Lark's Pearl. Details on that soon!

Summary

The Lark Prince is a magical short story that delves into the heart of Prince Elias of Evæqesta as he uncovers a secret connection to his late mother and gains the unexpected ability to transform into a Lark, the sweetest bird in the kingdom. As Elias embraces his newfound powers, he discovers not only the joys and challenges of living in two worlds—one of royalty and duty, and the other of freedom and love—but also a deeper bond with his father, forged through the shared magic that links them to his mother’s memory. When he meets a young maiden with luscious, curly hair the deep red of an Ariabella flower, Elias’s heart is captivated. Unsure whether to reveal his true identity, he begins to leave a single pearl at their secret meeting place every day for a year, until the pull of love becomes too strong to ignore. A bonus story from The Lark’s Pearl, The Lark Prince offers readers a glimpse into Elias’s journey of self-discovery, magic, love, and the healing of a father-son relationship. For the full experience, be sure to read The Lark’s Pearl first, as this tale may contain spoilers from the main story.
