Writing on the second instalment is progressing nicely and I can already say its going to be bigger and better than the first one. These characters have been taking me on my own little journey lately, trying to place them all after the events of the first book is both a challenge and interesting. I don't believe they are done with me just yet. It evolves on a daily basis. <br />
<br />
I'm not going to give anything away just yet, what I will give you is the title: <br />

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 36pt;">"Okay we can do this,
but if anything happens because of your so-called taste for adventure, I will
never see the forest again, my dad will give me yet another speech and so will
yours," Asalis warned.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">"My dad is basically
the Kings right hand man,”bragged Merk, “so if anything I should have every
right to be in the castle. Now come on, let’s go before we miss everything,"
Merk said running past the bustling market which came alive each morning with
the smell of fresh bread and colours of fruit and vegetables fresh from the fields.
The stall keepers watched carefully as the children ran past the carts as they
were very familiar with the two mischief makers. They had also become used to
the outlandish stories of the pair’s tricks as they travelled through the city.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">"Over there!"
Merk said, pointing at a sewage entrance at the back of the castle, out of
sight from everyone. Its potent stench was almost unbearable, even at a
distance.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">"Are you serious?
We’re not getting into the castle by going in there, no one goes in there for a very good reason," protested
Asalis.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">"Asalis are you coming
or not? I am not going to waste time waiting for you."<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">Asalis hesitated and looked
at Merk’s eager expression and his eyes waiting for an answer.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">"I will stand watch
and make sure that no one follows you but I am most certainly not going in
there," Asalis said folding his arms and standing his ground.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">"Very well, your loss
then," Merk said, disappearing into the darkness of the tunnel.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Merk made his way through the many twists and
turns of the sewage pipes, occasionally upsetting the small creatures that
lived there. He finally found what he was looking for, a small passage leading
to a back door that was used by the maintenance elves of the city. Merk always
used this door to get into the castle, sometimes to listen in on conversations,
but most of the time just to snatch something from the kitchen where all the
glorious meals were prepared for the King, Queen and guests alike, a secret he
had never told Asalis about. Leaving the pair of shoes that he’d worn through
the sewer, he carefully made his way into the kitchen, bringing only a trace of
the smell that pervaded the sewer. He made his way through a small door into
the empty kitchen. He found it very strange that on this morning the kitchen
was empty given that all the Kings and Queens had arrived at the Kingdom. Who
was waiting on them? Where was all the good food? He crept past the servant
quarters where he could hear a woman talking about the meeting and what it
might entail as they had been told to remain in their rooms until further
notice. The very fact that there was such a secretive meeting had awoken
suspicion amongst all the elves as such a thing had never happened before,
meaning the meeting must be something of great importance. </span>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09772953095164413248noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-363800696948888052.post-78146970044664935512013-05-17T01:54:00.000-07:002013-05-17T01:59:22.971-07:00The Kingdom<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 36pt;">"Night had fallen over the Mangor
Mountains, bringing with it a strange silence that filled the castle and homes
of the Kingdom of Aldour. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 36pt;">Queen Luna
stood on the castle balcony, carved into the mountains over many years,
listening and watching for any sign that would indicate that evil might remain
where it was meant to be—far from her kingdom. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 36pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 36pt;">The hallways and rooms within the castle were
filled with the bright light of the moon, providing a sense of hope, a glimmer
of serenity in these troubled times. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 36pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 36pt;">The
Kingdom had always been one of peace, ruled only to provide </span><span style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 36pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 36pt;">freedom to the people, sharing all that the
Kingdom of Aldour had to offer. A Queen of nature Luna was, one in control of
many elves and forest creatures, blessed by nature with the gift of eternal
life. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 36pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 36pt;">During her time as Queen she had
witnessed many things, things good and bad, situations that would present
themselves at the most unfortunate of times but always knowing that he who
ruled at her side would never rule with an iron fist but with an open hand to
promote peace. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 36pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 36pt;">Deep in thought, her mind
still focusing on the forest and mountains that lay beyond, an owl shrieked a
warning, </span><span style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 36pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 36pt;">and Luna knew that change was
coming to the Kingdom."</span></div>

<span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">When I started with this Novella I was excited and could not stop thinking about where to go with it or what to do. At first I was not sure and doubted the plans I had for the book. A few days later the magical world of<span class="apple-converted-space"><b> </b></span><b><i>Aldour</i></b><span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>came to life in my head and I knew it was the way to go. At first I thought I will only do one of these as I most probably can complete it all at once but after I wrote the first and had the chance to expand on it, I am excited to see what happens next! This book will form part off a series based on three children as they try and discover more about the seven stones and how to save their world. This book is all about what the title says, A Journey, and will take you through the different paths covered with darkness, evil and a sense of hope. If you like some magic, betrayal, mystery and your good at discovering things, this book is for you. I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed writing it. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
