"The ill-gotten crown will fall from a kin, Born as one soul but as two skins.
The throne will be gained by lies, one child cursed to be demised.
The eye sees not the deed, But by eighteenth winter's end ascend will the seed.
Tainted crown upon brow will rest, be it life or be it death?
The story behind the prophecy is that when a man by the name of Drakul(Dra-cool) attacks and kills the reining queen of the land of Isstania(East-on-ne-a) and becomes the reining King. The late queen had been a magic user, as were many of her subjects, Drakul had these subjects killed to ensure that the only magic left was under his control. The queen's adviser and well-known prophet escaped though, but not before foretelling the new King's fate through the above prophecy. He was never found after he escaped.
After claiming his throne, Drakul took the late queen's daughter(Sky) as his wife, letting her live only because he was captivated by her beauty. Many years later Sky became pregnant with Drakul's first born. It later became known that she was to have twins, Drakul's adviser's realized then what "Born as one soul but as two skins" meant and was that one or both of his children would be the death of him. My novel is the following of one of the two twins.
The times setting is NOT on Earth as I'm sure you guessed, and it's a world of magic and the laws and rules are different then our own. With the back story behind the prophecy known, I wanted to know what people thought of it. What they see and think when they read it.
FYI, the names are skill being worked on <.<;
Please check back after you comment to see what I said. =D
I can give more info on the story also.
