The Journey of Eternity
Little Story - Golden Light
In the middle of the era, the success of the knights was at the top and power became the goal of all people. It is said that a sweet princess from the wealthy kingdom of Lianburg was born with the King of the Lion Country, King Edward Panthera. The baby girl was born in the middle of the day when the sun was shining so hot by carrying a different destiny with her blonde hair.
“This baby will be named as Elly which means the Golden light. No, she's my daughter, everyone's daughter. She is our favorite daughter all.” Said the king by carrying the baby in his arms when he was just born.
As a special first daughter, she carried a different birth. The king himself crowned his birth marked as a festival of fertility and prosperity. All the citizens rejoiced every time that day came, many wonderful things were organized by the king as a birthday celebration of his daughter.
When he was 5 years old he started doing amazing things that no child his age did. She speaks fluently like a wise queen, doing many adult activities. He was a polite and friendly boy to anyone he met, including the soldiers he spent time with outside.
He made friends with anyone, no matter the other royal queens and his sons and daughters or even the poor, almost anyone he could recognize. The children who played with him were always subject to the words he uttered.
His presence was always considered a blessing that came to them, even though that belief never once became real. Not only all that, he was considered a gifted child capable of doing everything.

The sun rising from the eastern end shines on the side of the world. With its glare, it woke up the figure of a beautiful little girl from the bed. Stretching her body slightly, the girl got up from her bed and walked out of the room. He found two women in black and white dresses, the servants who helped him.
“Good morning, Miss Ely. How did you sleep last night?” greet one of the women.
“Good morning, I think I had a wonderful dream last night.” Follow the girl cheerfully.
“Good. Miss, can you come here for a second? There's something we want to get to, right.” The woman waved her hand.
Without a doubt, the girl walked up to them and stopped by putting a beautiful smile on her face. By finding the two women carrying a pair of beautiful white dresses and thrusting at her.
“Happy birthday, Princess. We can only give this with our savings money both, do you want to receive it?” there was doubt on the faces of both of them.
Suddenly the girl gently grabbed the dress and looked at it with an astonished face. He seemed happy with what was within his grasp.
“No, this is mine. I'm glad I could have it. Thank you.” A happy sweet smile was scratched at the girl's aunt.
He gladly went out and took up the shirt to meet a crowned man who stood gallantly looking at the cold wind and everyone outside was bothered to prepare something. The man turned around and instantly rubbed the girl's tiny body in his arms and pinched her sweet lips.
“Daddy, I told you to stop doing this!” ely grumbled by puffing her cheeks that were flushed after being pinched and trying on furniture.
“What? That's impossible, you're my darling.” Sahut the father until finally he defeated and lowered the girl.
“Oh, yes. Dad last night dreamed something very clear. Maybe it's a prophecy, do you want to hear it?” he continued by gently patting his daughter's hair.
“What is it?” the girl was curious.
“In the dream, father saw someone who-“ the king's sentence was interrupted by a knight who came with a bad look.
By giving a little special code of the knights, the king nodded and followed where the knight took him.
“What's up? Is there a problem?” Ely curiously pulls his father's shirt away without saying goodbye and stops him.
When all the necessities were ready, happy people came and started the show waiting for the king to come. After a long wait, from the entrance of the queen with a look that is not too pleasant. People started to get anxious, but all of that was erased with the opening that the queen was about to lead and everyone grew even more happy after the main character came off the screen.
With a wide smile, a girl of hope waved her hand to everyone who warmly welcomed her. The event was held with wisdom and sincere prayer. After all those parts were done, the festive feast began. Everyone was invited to enter the castle hall and inside there were plenty of delicious food lined up.
Everyone seemed happy, including the princess who danced with the invited pageants who came to the hall. But some royal members including the servants seemed to be gossiping about something at the end of the room. Without everyone realizing it, there was actually someone important who was not present in this event.
When starting to move in the middle of the day, everyone rests and prepares for the evening activities at the fertility ceremony. The calm ended when someone from the royal family reported that the ceremony would be canceled and the residents had to leave for evacuation.
The king stood before them all and said the bad thing that had happened. The armies of distant kingdoms came and attacked with great force. After hearing the news, many young men reached out to stay, while the rest of the citizens went along with the royal family who could not afford to fight, including Miss Ely. He was taken away from there and will return the next day.
On the battlefield, the valiant king of the enemy side led with a majestic crown on his head. A step the royal troops came and blocked their steps.
At the beginning of the battle, it seemed like this kingdom had already suffered a crushing defeat and the king began to be cornered. Until a coincidence that had to be paid handsomely by king Edward finally managed to drive the opponent from the land. By sacrificing a lot of blood for the sake of his troops, the king ended up severely injured.
For weeks he could only lie in his bed and feel all the pain he was suffering. The residents feel very sad about the current situation. Until one day, the king asked everyone who cared for him out of the room and let him just be with his beloved daughter who waited for him for a while.
“Come, Princess. Don't put on a look like that. Dad, will be sad.” Said the king by pinching one of his daughter's cheeks.
“What a disgusting creature will laugh cheerfully when his father is as terminally ill as he is today.” The girl replied with a heavy voice.
“Did you eat, I heard you don't have an appetite. How would it be if the news said that this beautiful princess was not cared for and her body was very thin? Well? Eat, yes?” the smile of the king who tried to comfort did not scratch the smile on the lips of the girl.
“Alright, it looks like my daughter is very sad just because of this. Actually there's something I want to say. Dad used to say to tell me something a dream might be a prophecy, right? Do you still want to hear it?”
“I'll listen until dad is completely healed.” Sahut the girl with not the slightest change in the look of her face.
“Alright then. Listen, yeah…
In the dream, I heard the news that there was a child who happily killed anyone he hated. He befriends a beautiful monster. The monster obeyed everything he asked easily, until many people knew the truth of him.
People began to feel fear and worry about the death that might be waiting for them. They began to accuse the boy of the evidence that had already occurred. But no one really saw him kill anyone.
One day, I met him. Somehow, but in that dream I always spent time with him. Crazy things start to happen in the dream, the father starts to fall in love when he sees his tears that hatch suddenly. Those tears hugged me warmly and wiped away the existence of the monster that was inside him.
While in his arms, I realized my true form. With both of my hands looking petite, I saw a long blond hair that was unraveling on my shoulders. Until finally I woke up and remembered all those events clearly, even I still remember them until now.
“I think that's how it ends, Ely. Do you want to fulfill my father's last request?”
“What do you mean, I will fulfill all of your requests when you are healed. So don't talk weird!”
“You're a little girl, but your heart is very pure. Heal the child from his pain and remove the existence of evil monsters that rule over him. This is my father's last request. Besides, I'd probably really appreciate you two if you were really in love with her. Take good care of yourself, Ely. Father very... father loves you very much..” the heavy breath of the man ushered in his two eyes that began to close.
With tears streaming down, Ely shook his father's body. She hugged her father tightly by continuing to cry hysterically.
