Beginning:
…The sound of something heavy falling onto the windowsill… A large shadow covered the room… And when you sharply turned your head towards the window, expecting something terrible, you saw...
A gray Pegasus, standing right on your windowsill… It gently swayed its beautiful, bluish-gray wings and waved its silvery, wavy tail… It was so beautiful that you were stunned. It was very similar to those ordinary horses, graceful creatures that you always liked, but there was something in it that greatly distinguished it from them and made its appearance even more extraordinary… And on the Pegasus sat a rider – a young man, something in his face attracted you… But then he left the saddle, jumped to the floor, and approached you. You took a closer look at him. He looked to be about twenty years old, but gray hair was already clearly visible in his ashen hair. An unremarkable face, it seemed, could easily get lost in the general gray mass of city faces – sharp-nosed, very pale and thin, sunken cheeks, wrinkles etched on his forehead from gloom and heavy thoughts, large bruises under his eyes… But his eyes… They were also gray, but… So bright, burning, alive… Shining… You wanted to drown in these eyes, or at least look into them forever. Your guest was dressed in a light gray silk cloak, matching everything else… Another detail caught your attention – there was a feather behind the man’s ear… A writer’s feather. It glowed, as if phosphorescent, and slowly changed its color – all the colors of the rainbow, all the shades… “Good night to you…” the guest began. And you gasped – the voice of the Pegasus rider was incredibly pleasant… Quiet, but noticeably strong and beautiful… - “You weren’t expecting guests tonight, I know. But it happened. You see, someone told me something very pleasant… That there is a very interesting person living in your city, with whom I should talk… As you can imagine, that person is you. I came to take you with me tonight. And I want to listen to your words all this beautiful night… You write, don’t you? Believe me, I would really like to listen to you. And also tell you about something you could never imagine… I will tell you about the beautiful… I will tell you about the truth… How I found you is not important. But know that as soon as I saw you, I knew it was you…” A dreamy half-smile appeared on his face. – “Of course, I’m not going to force you to come with me… If you don’t want to, you don’t have to, although I will be very sorry…” And you immediately assured your guest that you would gladly go with him tonight. Together, you mounted his winged horse and flew away. And everything was as he promised – you spent the night in some park, where the Pegasus brought you, and you read poems to each other, talked about the beautiful, about the truth, philosophized, and dreamed… When dawn began to fall on the city, the Pegasus brought you back to your room. As a farewell, your guest gave you a book with blank pages… He said: “Now write down everything you would like to say to me, or tell me… Because we will probably not see each other again.” And they merged with the bluish morning sky, barely flying out the window. You fell asleep in a deep and peaceful sleep… And when you woke up, you thought that such dreams should be written down… You rummaged through your things for a long time, looking for paper or a notebook, but then you found a book with blank pages under your pillow… And the certainty that it was a dream vanished in an instant. ;)
Continuation:
... Regina, Queen of the Fifth Royamsko-Sorsellier Kingdom…
…For a moment, it was as if a fire broke out in the room, everything was engulfed in flames, and you even thought it burned your face… But it faded as quickly as it flared up. A woman stood before you. Mature, with large, beautiful facial features and dark skin. Probably a noble lady. Dark hair is gathered in a high hairstyle. Dark hazel eyes shimmer under heavy eyelids. She is dressed in a scarlet Spanish dress with a high collar. A luxurious diadem crowns her head. This was the great Queen. “Greetings…” Her head bowed in a slight bow. “My name is Regina Le’Fort. Believe it or not… But I am the queen of the Fifth Royamsko-Sorsellier Kingdom. You have finally come…” She looked you up and down. “It took me a long time to bring you here. You always try to get lost in the crowd. But you didn’t succeed, you are too different… Yes, with your power. You have willpower. Not everyone has that. You know, if everyone had such strength… Then either there would be peace in the whole world… Or the Third World War. I don’t wish either of those things on your world, honestly. But you, undoubtedly, deserve a reward… You came here with a specific purpose. To save a creature from the trap of fate… I will do this for a person like you. So… He was also different. He was a man who challenged everything that surrounded him. And most importantly – people. If he had been a little stronger… Like you… Then he would have achieved what he wanted. But he didn’t have enough strength. And he only achieved that the world rejected him… He is cursed. But today, thanks to YOUR strength, I will lift the curse…” A rustle. You catch a glimpse of something like a black bird out of the corner of your eye, which instantly turns into a man. He approaches you… He has black hair, gathered in a tight ponytail, a pointed beard… He has a cane in his hands. Unusual amber eyes intently gaze into your face… And he knelt before you, clasping your hands in his. Regina called to him: “Come on. Freedom is already waiting for you in the Fifth Royamsko-Sorsellier Kingdom…” The Queen Regina looked at you. – “I hope you will join us too… When you make your final choice.” The Queen and the former exile, hand in hand, walked away… And the flame engulfed everything again. Then the heat was replaced by coolness… You managed to open your eyes with difficulty. The clock says – 05:34… You don’t yet see that there is an unexpected object on your desk – it is a small scepter, classic, with a cross, red with gold, inlaid with rubies and garnets… On it is engraved, for some reason in French: “Le calme. La patience. La force.”
