Chapter 1 - The Princess and the warrior of the hidden moon.

Story Summary

Princess Elara lives in a beautiful kingdom called Selvaria. Everyone says there's only one moon in the sky, but she dreams of another—a hidden moon that only appears during special eclipses.

One night, during a rare eclipse, a mysterious warrior named Kaelen comes to her. He tells her the hidden moon is real, and that she is the key to saving both their worlds.

Together, they must travel to the moon realm called Nyx, fight a dark enemy, and unlock Elara's hidden powers.

Chapter 1: The Moon Mark

Elara stood on top of the tall Moonspire tower. The sky was dark. The eclipse was starting.

Her back felt warm. The mark on her skin—shaped like a moon—was glowing again.

She had always felt different.

"Elara!" called her maid. "You must come to the feast!"

"I will," Elara said softly, but she didn't move.

Suddenly, a strange wind blew. A light flashed.

From the shadows, a man appeared. He wore black armor that sparkled like stars.

"I have come for you," he said

Who are you?" Elara asked.

"My name is Kaelen," he said. "You are needed. The hidden moon is calling you."

Chapter 2: The Warrior of Nyx

They sat by the glowing fire inside the tower.

Kaelen spoke softly. "There are two moons. One you know—Lux. The other is Nyx, the hidden moon. Long ago, both were part of the sky. But something went wrong."

Elara listened carefully.

"Nyx is fading," Kaelen said. "If it dies, so will your world. But there is hope. A child born during the eclipse can fix it. That child is you."

"But I'm just a princess," Elara said.

"You are more," Kaelen replied. "You have power from both moons. You can save us all."

Elara looked out the window. The eclipse was almost full.

"I'll go with you," she said.

Chapter 3: The Veil Opens

Kaelen brought Elara to the bottom of the tower. There, an old stone door stood, covered in glowing marks.

He cut his hand with a small knife. Drops of silver blood fell on the stone.

The door began to shine.

"This is the way to Nyx," Kaelen said. "Once you go, there's no turning back."

Elara took a deep breath and stepped forward.

A soft mist wrapped around her. The air felt heavy.

She closed her eyes.

When she opened them, the world had changed.

She was standing in Nyx.

The sky was dark but full of stars. Trees had silver leaves. Rivers flowed through the air.

"It's beautiful," Elara said.

Kaelen nodded. "This is where your true journey begins."

Chapter 4: City of Ghosts

Elara followed Kaelen through the quiet world of Nyx. The sky was dark, but filled with stars that moved like fireflies. Silver plants grew from the ground, and strange glowing animals watched them from the trees.

"Is anyone else here?" Elara asked.

"Not many," Kaelen said. "Most left... or were lost when the moon was sealed away."

They walked until they reached a stone bridge. On the other side was a broken city. Tall towers had fallen. Houses were covered in vines. Everything looked frozen, like time had stopped.

"This was Lumeris," Kaelen said. "The capital of Nyx."

Elara stepped onto the bridge. Her feet made soft sounds on the stone. As they entered the city, she felt a strange chill in the air.

Then she saw them.

Ghostly shapes—like shadows of people—were moving slowly through the streets. Some looked like warriors. Others looked like families. They didn't speak, just walked in silence.

"Who are they?" she whispered.

"Memories," Kaelen said. "When Nyx was broken, the city didn't die completely. These are echoes of the past. They can't hurt us."

Elara stopped in front of a statue. It was of a woman with a sword and a crown. The face looked familiar.

"That's Queen Ilyana," Kaelen said. "Your great-grandmother. She was Moonborn, like you."

"My family came from Nyx?" Elara asked.

Kaelen nodded. "Part of your blood is from this realm. That's why you have the mark. That's why you can use both kinds of magic."

Elara looked down at her hands. They glowed faintly—half silver, half gold.

Suddenly, a loud boom echoed in the distance.

Kaelen grabbed his sword. "We're not alone."

From the shadows, a creature stepped forward. It had black wings, red eyes, and a body made of smoke.

"A shadowbeast," Kaelen said. "Vareth is watching us."

The creature growled and ran at them.

Elara felt fear rise inside her—but also something else. Power.

She raised her hand.

A burst of silver light flew out. It hit the beast and pushed it back.

"You're learning fast," Kaelen said.

Elara looked at her hand in surprise. "I didn't even think."

Kaelen smiled. "That's the power of Nyx. It answers when your heart is clear."

They stood in the broken city, heartbeats slowing, moonlight shining down.

And far above, hidden behind clouds, the second moon watched in silence.
