And So I Was Born…

Thursday, December 14th, 2006

With the death of the 5th Child left unknown to the King, the Queen concieved a 7th Child and lovingly named her Nakashima Hitori. The Queen fears that if the King were to find out about Hitori’s real Destiny, the King would give orders to kill this innocent child. Thus, the Queen kept this secret to herself and allowed her daughter to live.

She did not fool the Warlock, however, as when they recieve the prophecy, the Warlock always refers to Hitori as “Nanako” which means “7th Child”. Fortunately for Mother and Child, the King has little knowledge of the Warlocks’ Sutras and requires other people to translate it for him.

And so the 7th Child lives on to this very day.

She is the 4th daughter of the Nakashima Clan. Her Mother, Yumi-dono, loves her daughter despite what the Prophecy warns:

A 7th Child will be born and will bring disaster to this Land. What was accepted into the Household will one destroy it. Her life will be filled with sorrow and lifeless endeavors…

Most importantly…

The people who will love her will only be hurt…
No one can love her…
And she can love no one…

Such is the Prophecy of the Warlock, of which the Child knows well…

But hope glimmers within her, as she refuses to allow herself to be controlled by Destiny. A Prophecy has never been broken, but the 7th Child wishes to prove that Warlock wrong…

Even it it means sacrificing her own life…

I am a warrior…

This is a journey of a Princess who was forced to become a Warrior in the harsh reality of the Gaea. The Princess is still in training to become a proper Queen of her land. She must prove to her Father, the King, that she is worthy of the crown. Being the 7th child, the last to be born, there is much to prove… For as all Princesses, the King often thinks of them as frail and always needing protection.

This young Princess has 3 older Princess as her Sisters, and 2 older Princes as her brothers. She is the 7th child because her mother, the Queen, had lost the 5th child even before birth.

Now, in the Land of Celestia, a King is not to have more than 6 Children… Because the Warlock had prophesized that the 7th Child will bring forth destruction to the Royal Family. Not wanting to kill the 7th child, the Queen hid the fact the the 5th Child had perished from the King.

Now the 7th Child has a heavy burden to carry. Because the Queen has told this young Child of the Prophecy when she was very young, the Princess fully believes that she should never have been born in the first place. What’s more, what will happen if the King were to find out that she will be the one who will destroy his Kingdom?

Who would want to destroy the very people who loved and raised her from the very beginning?
