@ShwiggityShwah We can actually work on it in our future posts (present-time) since I plan to skip writing about the two weeks in the dessert and just focus on the present. Might include a bit of flashbacks here and there, but that's it.

Let's Go Save the Princess!

Location: Carriage | Heading to Gardenia Outskirts | Mood: Cranky

---

The first rays of morning light came seeping down the mountainsides, quietly sneaking through the woman's curtains whilst she slept in the comforts of her bed. The room lit aglow with warm light, painting a picturesque scene that almost seemed ethereal. It was a perfect sunrise. The sleeping beauty remained in deep slumber, her peaceful face hinting of a happy dream.

Unfortunately, the morning's tranquility wouldn't last for very long.

The sunlight slowly crept to her bed and filtered through her thin eyelids, jolting the woman awake. But it wasn't the light that awoke her — it was the weird sensation that engulfed her entire body. The hairs on her body stood on end, sending a light shiver down her spine.

"Ack..!"

A blinding ball of light engulfed her for a brief moment, and she fell off the bed with a painful thud.

"O-ow..."

Every trace of the woman had vanished into thin air. In her place, a naked child lay on the floor, rubbing her head as she released a sigh of vexation. She blinked several times, in an attempt to help her eyes adjust to the sunlight that was directed right at her defenseless figure. She furrowed her brows as she stared at the window with heavy eyes, seemingly angry at the sun. She has regarded it with distaste ever since she fell victim to a wretched hex.

The transformation always made her body feel all weird and prickly. It never failed to wake her up every single morning, much to her bitter annoyance. The girl allowed herself a few moments to sulk, before pulling herself up to get ready for the day. She was only beginning to remember the job she has been assigned to, and it caused her to groan internally. Was there no way for her to refuse a princess' request? It had been a long while since was last hired — thanks to a certain witch — and she has grown accustomed to her dull, stagnant life. It conveniently fit her laid-back nature. Children didn't have to work!

To make matters more complicated, she was entirely sure that the sheltered princess was unaware of her current.. predicament.

After a few groans and incoherent mutters, the young girl forced herself to bathe and get dressed. The importance she placed on her appearance was evident no matter what form she took. As per usual, she was dressed in fine silks, embroidered with floral patterns and dragons. Her golden skirt complemented the warm undertones of her fair skin, and she wore her hair up in small buns. Once she was satisfied with the way she looked, she puffed up her chest and smiled proudly at her reflection in the mirror.

Before prancing out the door, she grabbed a vase that looked to be ordinary furniture with low value. However, nothing could be further from the truth. The vase was actually a summoning relic, which she used for all of her summoning rituals.

With a lack of eagerness, the girl hopped into the carriage and headed for the outskirts of Gardenia, where she would meet the others and introduce herself as Alicia Clemens; the summoner.

After the battle...

---

Octavia unclenched her fists as she moved towards the throne, picking up her sword as she eased a step further along the path. She took off her torn robes and used her teeth to remove her glove, tossing them to the side as she continued to walk through the battlefield. Her eyes darted around the room, eventually homing in on Gwen, who was carefully examining the spoils of the battle. After some careful consideration, Gwen handed the magic bow to Octavia, leaving her with a puzzled look on her face. She opened her mouth to speak, but closed them and nodded a small thanks.

Octavia's avoidance of magic was understandable given her circumstances, but after today's events, she realized that it might've been worth considering. Still, that would require some careful rumination; there were potential dangers to consider. The last thing Octavia wanted was to make things go from extremely bad to extremely disastrous. Magic was a fickle thing, especially for her.

To her frustration, she hasn't felt much like herself in the past week. There was a distant look in her unfocused eyes; her mind seemed to be elsewhere despite the task before her. An odd feeling of lightheadedness swept over her, and she had to squeeze her eyes shut for a moment. Shaking her head, she willed her legs to move forward, heading over towards the nearest pillar.

Octavia plopped herself down on the ground, leaning her back against the structure. As she sat there to rest, her eyes began to feel heavier and heavier. There was a strong desire to shut them and doze off, but she managed to keep them open. A blanket of tiredness wrapped itself around her body, but the events of their arduous journey replayed in her mind, demanding her to stay awake.

For the first time in a week, she felt like she could finally rest. The journey back home was another thing, but the travel would feel less taxing knowing they were headed back home. Her body begged to sleep on a soft mattress, and a warm bath would do wonders for her aching muscles. With that in mind, Octavia released a long, much-needed sigh. Her eye throbbed for a brief moment, but she ignored it. Perhaps she'd find some answers to her predicament when she got back home. After all, her mother's journal remained untouched in her storage box.

Maybe it was finally time to read it.

"I'm not saying I'm perfect, but if you asked me to provide you with a list of my flaws, I'd give you a blank piece of paper."

Like most people would say, Alice is an incredibly beautiful woman with raven hair and fair skin. Standing at 5'8ft, she is considered fairly tall for a woman. In terms of clothing, she's always dressed in the finest silks, but she prefers to wear jewelry to a bare minimum, going for an elegant and effortless style. She walks and talks with her head held high, radiating confidence wherever she goes. You can tell from a glance that she doesn't just look the part, she feels it in her bones.

People are naturally drawn to her because of her oozing confidence and charisma. Her curvaceous body has driven many impressive suitors to meet her, but she hasn't shown signs of interest in marriage. Alice's youthful beauty has been the talk of many women in town - more so out of envy rather than admiration.

But it all changed after a certain..err..incident..where she tried to seduce a witch's husband. She didn't know he was married!

Out of rage and spite, the witch put a powerful hex on Alice, trapping her in a child's body. From the moment the sun rises until it sets, Alice is forced to live her life as a flimsy child. As if that weren't cruel enough; the hex also worked as a magic suppressor, witholding most of her magical power and leaving it dormant.

Alice's appearance during the day is that of a small, delicate child, with twig-like arms and legs. Her 4'10 frame often appears taller than it is, due to her tendency to hold herself up in a relatively superior manner amongst others. She doesn't do it in a purposefully condescending manner, it's just the way she is.

The hex basically works to revert Alice back to her former (younger) self, so most of her features still remain the same. She has chocolate brown eyes, a narrow facial structure, and colorful tattoos around her ankles. Being a child doesn't stop Alice from keeping up with the lastest fashion trends.

"Don't bite off more than you can chew. Nobody looks attractive spitting it back out."

People are often taken aback by Alicia's true personality. They see a responsible, hard-working woman with a strong sense of duty. Her gentle eyes and soft smile gives others the impression that she is caring and sympathetic.

But they couldn't be further from the truth.

Alice is lackadaisical. She likes to take long naps during the day, and she cant be bothered with trivial things such as chores; she won't clean and cook to save her life. Her extremely laid-back nature can be quite problematic to those around her. But when it comes to having fun, nothing is really off the table for Alice. She has always been the flow with the wind kind of girl -- wherever that may take her. It hardly makes a difference to her as long as she has the essentials: food and sleep.

The woman can be pretty smug for the most part. She knows she's good at what she does (when she decides to do it) and she never undermines herself or others. Alice is hardly ever critical and enjoys lavishing others with praises. Much truth can also be said regarding the opposite; she enjoys the lavish praises of others, maybe even a bit too much.

Alice is completely capable of handling situations, but she'd rather leave others up to the task. She also likes to tease and make witty remarks, all in the name of good fun. Alice hardly ever displays emotions of sadness and anger, so it's hard to tell what's really underneath her carefree and cordial exterior.

{Class}

Summoner; the ability to summon familiars, mythological beasts, and other magical beings.

{Strengths}

Before the whole ordeal with the witch and her malevolent spell, Alice was well known in Stigma as a young and talented summoner. She could summon magical beings of varying kinds, from fairies who would do her chores for her, to powerful beasts who can rip their enemies to shreds. The limit to her magical prowess isn't known, but she was powerful enough to be well-revered by other mages and sorcerers in Stigma.

{Weaknesses}

When Alice reverts back to her ten-year old body, so do her powers. At the age of ten, Alice was only able to summon low-born magical creatures (maximum of three at a time) like fairies who would cook and sweep the floor, and magical birds who would deliver packages, letters, or simply keep watch.

Alice's magic is, unfortunately, suppressed even in her real form, only allowing her to summon three animal spirits at a time. There is a recovery period of about 3-4 hours, depending on the magical output. However, her magical abilities are the least of concerns, because Alice would rather relax and do nothing to help. She is lazy, after all, and she would most likely choose a nap over saving your ass.

What were you doing when the princess was kidnapped?

While Alice is very fond of dressing up for festivals, she did not have the desire to attend this one — at least not in the form of a child. She was peacefully tucked in bed, sleeping, oblivious to what was happening outside the comforts of her own bedroom.
