Prologue
I am cold... I am hungry... I am thirsty... However, I cannot satisfy any of these desires...
Plunged into darkness, I am completely alone. There is no soul living near me, no more than there is vegetation. There are no floors under my feet, no more than there are skies above my head. It is only me and the darkness that envelops me...
Since I stopped crying about my fate and screaming loudly, the silence of my prison has been with me. I don’t know how long I’ve been there. Enough that my sadness turns into bitterness and my heart fills with anger and hatred for all those who betrayed me. For all those whom I will avenge when I finally find my freedom. And I will find it again, I am certain!
Outside this place, there is still someone who seeks me and who will deliver me, because he really cares about me...
I don’t know if I should laugh or cry. I had the potential to become the most powerful of mages, controlling all forms of magic, fell so low. I was pushed out of the game before realizing that I was not the queen, but the pawn. And now I can only wait for my only ally to fly to my rescue. Wait with my broken heart and my memories all more painful. But what more could I have done to escape my doom?
Looking back, my life would have been much better and longer if magic had never been part of it. Alas, the whole earth was defiled. And if for seventeen years I had been able to live as a mere human, the world to which I belonged did not take long to remind me of the most horrible manners...
