In the North Eastern portion of the Kingdom of Jhai was a rather large town. It was known to be quite a progressive settlement however; they had begun to show their distaste on the way that the Lord Leon was implementing his authority. Thus, as the sun had risen signifying a new day. No one can be seen along the streets. Silence reign over it and no life can be seen roaming around. Although, it was clear that the people should be out of bed doing their menial tasks for everyday living. Another intriguing fact would be the aroma of death adhered tightly to the air as if it was afraid of something greatly. What had transpired here? Did the night swallow them all? On the other hand, did they simply abandon the village they had called their home? Questions kept piling up, it seemed that no answers would be said. Nevertheless, a creaking sound can be heard that emitted from one of the houses.
It had originated from an old door being opened. Slowly, an appearance of a girl clad in a ornately white dress had been shown. It seemed that she was out of place in such a desolate town. The color of her hair and her appearance that was both white paled her surroundings greatly. It also meant she was one of the feared Elites under the command of the Lord Leon. Her scent of roses flooded the area she had stood. However, she was the proof that life existed in that place. Soon enough, she had stepped out from the said house and was at the center of the street. Her left golden eye gazed at the sky that radiated the light of the sun. The harsh wind that carried the scent of death surrounded her. It was delightful sensation to her. How she loved the fact of waking in day bombarded with such a lovely scent. It had brought a smile upon her lovely face.
"Such a lovely day. I wonder how are my dolls... Hmm, I shall visit them."
Words filled with much a lovely tone as she stretched her limbs to loosen them up. She gazed at her clothes as she dusted them and made sure that it had remained entirely clean. After so, she ran her dainty fingers along her ankle-length soft white tresses. It was her gesture of showing boredom towards such a silent town. Looking around the seemingly ghost town, it seemed that the villagers were not going to wake and do their chores. In response, she shrugged and simply went to the Town Square. Her steps were light as a feather as she walked with such cheer. A smile remained upon her cherry pink lips that contrasted her pale complexion. Soon enough, she had arrived at the said location and what could be seen was a terrifying scene.
Before her, the entire population of the said town was all hanged in various positions. Some were skinned, dismembered and brutally killed. No one was an exception. A macabre setting was fitted to suit the taste of the demented Elite. The blood that came from them filled the entire ground. Since the known Elite did not like being dirtied, she floated above them. The scent of decaying corpses overflowed her nostrils however, instead of vomiting. She simply chuckled like a child glad to see her toys. The carrion birds flew over her and some were already feasting upon the corpses. She did not bother the ravenous birds that desired the taste of the dead.
Licking her lips in delight, her twisted intent was reflected upon her eye as she praised herself for a job well done. It was by the order of the Lord Leon she had slaughtered everyone in this town. They were starting to rebel against his Lordship. It would never be allowed at all costs and she had no problems committing such brutal ways of punishment. In her case, she loved every moment of it. The screams and horrors that the people made from their own voices were the most beautiful music she had ever made. It was a grueling yet entertaining night for her. She even remembered that they had thought of her as a little girl that can do no harm. She may be small for her age nevertheless, the young Elite was the cruelest among everyone else.
Upon her hand, there lay a bloom of white rose that was similar to the one on her right eye. She dropped it on the ground to let everyone know who had done such a grotesque deed. With that, she left the town and returned to the Capital to report about the mission that was assigned to her finished. The winds hastened her travel in just a few hours that would take so many days. However, during her journey, she had the pleasure of feeling the winds against her skin. It was welcomed sensation, which she had done everything to gain mastery of her ability.
After a few moments, she had arrived at the palace and entered the throne room without any sign of respect. The young elite had no need for doing such annoying pleasantries. In truth, she was quite famished and needed to eat some breakfast. Nevertheless, she was in here doing her duty. It was annoying to some point knowing that she was still bounded to something when she did not want it at all. However, she did stand before Lord Leon with much grace and elegance that would be expected from her. Actually, no one can tell from her current appearance that she had come from a bloody scene and was the cause of it. All would think she was simply an Elite of kind and gentle manners. How wrong they were to think otherwise. After all, they should have known better.
"Your majesty, I, Treli have arrived from the town of Heawa. I have "evacuated" the citizens as you have ordered. If, you have anything else to ask of. Do wait until I received some food from the kitchen. Till then, I will see you later."
"Let me sleep... For when I sleep..." "I will finally see you in my dreams..."
