PROLOGUE

SHE PULLED THE WINDOW HANDLE TOWARDS HER AND the curtains shifted out of their place. She shoved them into their original corners and forced them to behave. Crystalria's night sky still had a skeptical feeling to it. Nothing really made sense, she still had this fear that he was going to come back. To destroy the orb once and for all.

It wasn't the orb's fault. Surely, it wasn't. It never lied. But nor did he. As close as he was to her, she had to agree with the orb.

Now she questioned it. Was it the right decision? Or was it complete and utter trash she made that choice? But, in all honesty, it was too late in her eyes. It was either him destroyed or the fate of Equestria and Crystalria. Obvious as it was, she had to defend her countries.

Yet the guilt that she betrayed her dearest friend messed up her mind. Something she never wanted to experience and hoped it would come to an end. It had been going on for eighteen years and many incidents of him coming back quivered her sanity.

He ruled over the Crystal Empire, forced the citizens all into slavery. If that wasn't bad enough, then she didn't know how mortifying his current plan was.

Sun. Moon. Day. Night. Crystal. Shadow. Harmony and... Disharmony.

They all weaved into one.

She gazed back at the box that lay neatly on her bed. Eyeing it, she ambled towards the brown, carved golden flourished, case. With a click, her eyes glowed with all colors; red, orange, yellow, white, blue, purple, heliotrope and pink.

The Elements of Harmony.

But all eight of them remained powerless. What could activate their magic?

Eight wielders. How old would they be? Would they be experienced? If not, who could train them?

Two Generals. That's it.

Author's Note

hey guys! um, so, the Wattpad version of this book is the first drafted version, this one is edited and whatnot XD but this version won't be formatted like BNC (because Tumblr is being a bitch right now XD) I advise you to take it easy on me as I personally don't think I'm an excellent writer and I actually haven't done this in a while. the first twelve (or so) chapters were written all the way at the beginning of 2018 and I have improved a lot since then so yeah!

i'll put some warnings at the beginning of this story just in case.

this story includes the following:
profanity, a whole lot of drama, a (straight) main romance (but it isn't limited to that), mature themes, and sex references.

if you are sensitive to any of these topics or have a bad history with them for whatever reason, read with caution.

but i hope you enjoy the prologue and i'll try to update this book once a month! (maybe idk?)
