  The couple lived a long pleasant live after the power of wind release from the princess. Until, trouble came again. It seemed, their lives were born with responsibility, until the things were done.   It’s a casual summer day, when the prince and the princess went on their journey, to explore, to light up the world. Their journey never end, not when the world was so wide.   They sat under the starry night, watched the stars lit upon the sky and enjoyed their moment together. They’ve been through so many difficulties. Their love was now beyond words, eternal as stars, eternal as moon.   The soothing wind brushed through the night, leaving the sound of whisper and their unspoken love.   Suddenly, a dark shade flew over the couple, shading all the light, until darkness fell upon them both.   The prince stood up without any hesitation, sword out, ready to fight. He hold no ordinary sword, it was an enchanting sword, only its true mas...

      For few seasons past, the princess still lay unconscious on the island, but there were different about her. To the prince astonishment, her body sometime grew transparent, sometime as light as the wind. And there would always be wind howling beside her.   The prince knew, there were some sort of power in side her, waiting to come out, so he wait patiently every day and every night. He knew the princess can battle on her own, cause she was the creator.   One day, when the prince sent the stars into the sky, the wind surrounded the island. It flew through the land, circled the prince and the princess, and flew around the land. The prince took all his strength to stay on the land, and to carry the princess as well. He knew, the time had come, and only when he protected the princess will she passed the test.   When the wind started to lessen, the ocean raised a water wall, created a boundary between the outside world and the couple. To...

  Although the princess and the prince beheld the greatest power of fire and water, they seldom used it. They knew that all power came with a price.   Once, the couple flew through the air, and breathed in the soothing air of the night. It was one of their beloved memories among all, cause the funny thing was, even the prince was so noble and powerful on land, he couldn’t control the trick of flying. It was always a joke between him and the princess when they needed to fly up in the sky. Yet, they both enjoyed the air brushing through them, greeting them, and whisper the secrets of the world.   They flew beside the birds and all those magical flying creatures. It was only once in a while, when they wanted to visit the sun and the moon during the time they lit up in the sky will the prince and the princess flew through the endless sky. In their usual lives, they were always exhausted after a long day of travel, sometime, after the battle with evil creatures. Si...

  Years past, they’d traveled throughout the world. And they had grown to know each other so well that they could communicate even without words, with a single glimpse, they knew. Of course, from the moment they knew the truth in the shadow, they had known they belonged together. But their bound grew tighter while they traveled the world, while every day they lived together.   The journey had blown the princess’s mind. In her life, she had never left her continent, nor had she imagined a world without flowers and warmth. Together, she and the prince brought sunlight and shadow to the world.   During the day, she spread the radiant sun all over the place she arrived, and left precious gifts that decorated the world. Where she stepped, spring and summer followed, flourish and vitality remained.   During the night, the prince and the princess bestrewed both moonlight and starlight onto the sky, lit up the darkness. Where they arrived, stars and moon fol...

  A tale always hides a tale; a secret always hides a secret.   It’s said that when the great princess cries, rain drops; when she sobs, winds blow.   There will always be a moonless night, no stars, no light, only endless darkness.   Wind blows furiously, rain drop heavily. All animals hide, all trees bow. They hide from the anger of the Mother Earth. While humanity might think all of this a natural phenomenon, there is a tale lies behind.   A tale of broken heart, a tale of sorrow, a tale of amend.   And here, was where the story began.   Once upon a time, a princess and a prince lived happily on the land.   Once upon a time, there was a beautiful princess. Her hair was as dark as the night, her skin as smooth as the water, and the most special of all, was that she had eyes with different colors. One of her eyes was as bright as the sun, while the other silver as the moon. They shone so brightly that you coul...

Rain   A tale always gets a tale; a secret always gets a secret.   It’s said that when the princess cries, rain drops; when she sobs, winds blow. It’s a moonless night, no stars, no light, only endless darkness.   Wind blows furiously, rain drop heavily.   All animals hide, all trees bow. They hide from the anger of the Mother Earth. While humanity might think all of this a natural phenomenon, there is a tale lies behind.   A tale of broken heart, a tale of sorrow.

Dream A dream. A girl. Flying...   Soundly at night. In her dream, she is flying, with breathtaking wings that flies behind her back.   She is a fairy.   And she is flying high in the sky, embracing the darkness.   She becomes the master of the dark.   Then, a star appears. Shining brightly at her, calling her, softly, gently.   And to her amazement...   The star is transparent. Like a glass, like a mirror, reflecting all the light beside.   She looks through the star, there, she sees another world.    A world with innumerable fairies just like her. Flowers blooming beautifully around, a sky with endless blue, and a lake full of magical creatures.   She tries to fly into the world, and magically, she passes like nothing is stopping her.   There, the girl plays happily with her new friends. She stays for day and night, singing, playing, and finally, she knows where she belongs. ...

Memory        Hundreds years ago, there was a man, a hidden man.       He was always alone, no one knew who he was.      And his only company--a mask and a rose. A beautiful white mask, as pure as his spirit, a blossom rose, as red as blood.       The only reason people knew him were because all the unknown music. Every day, every single day. His music played underneath the opera house, an opera house which said to be haunted.       It was said that many people died in the opera house long time ago, when it was still the fanciest opera house in the entire country.

Gift Desperation cries in the corner, alone. So sad, so desperate. “For you, a gift.” A simple, delicate gift. Desperation opens it with a shacking hand. A candle. He laughs. Because for the first time in his life, He sees hope.

Promise “I can’t let go.” “I know.” “Will we…still meet?” “Yes.” “You’ll come back?” “I promise.”   In those night, those disturbing night. The sky was full of the sense of death. Screaming. Dying. The Death covered the night sky, whispering, calling those who struggled to live. The Death came to the Earth, softly, gently, washed away their pain.   On the other side of the city, a figure that fought, fought for survival. Most important…fought for a promise. Once again, the night returns to peace. “You’re back.” Yet this time, Only memory and a bouquet.
