Prophecy Avenging

The prophecy stated that a great darkness was on the horizon and the fate of the world hung in the balance. It was said that a chosen one would rise up and defeat the darkness, bringing peace and prosperity to the land. The people of the kingdom of Ilaria had heard this a thousand times, but they never truly believed in it. After all, the kingdom had been at peace for decades, governed by a wise and just king. Even the royal court dismissed the prophecy as a mere legend.
But as it often happens with prophecies, they have a funny way of coming true when least expected.
It all began with a young girl named Ariana, who had been orphaned at a young age and raised by her aunt and uncle in a small village on the outskirts of the kingdom. She had always been an outsider, with her unruly red hair and piercing green eyes. But what set her apart the most was her gift - she had the ability to see and talk to spirits.
At first, Ariana was terrified of her gift. But her aunt, a wise woman with knowledge of the old ways, taught her how to control and use her abilities for good. In secret, Ariana would venture into the nearby forest and communicate with the spirits, learning about the past and the present. It was during one of these visits that she learned of the prophecy.
Ariana was skeptical, but the spirits were adamant that it was true. They spoke of a great darkness that would be unleashed upon the kingdom by a powerful sorceress seeking revenge. Only the chosen one could stop her and bring peace back to the land.
Meanwhile, in the royal court, a different kind of darkness was brewing. The king's trusted advisor, Lord Balthazar, had been plotting behind his back for years, waiting for the perfect opportunity to strike. With the prophecy in mind, Balthazar saw a chance to seize power and rule over the kingdom.
He had always been envious of the king's power and popularity, and he would stop at nothing to claim it for himself. Balthazar had been dabbling in dark magic and had made a pact with a demonic entity that promised him unlimited power in exchange for his loyalty. The sorceress mentioned in the prophecy was none other than Balthazar's ally, and it was her who would help him overthrow the king.
As the days passed, Ariana's village was the first to feel the effects of the great darkness. Crops withered, animals went mad, and people fell ill. The villagers were desperate for help, but the king's soldiers were too busy dealing with the growing unrest in the kingdom's capital to offer assistance.
Fearing for her people, Ariana decided to take matters into her own hands. She traveled to the capital and sought an audience with the king, hoping to convince him of the prophecy's truth. But as an orphan with no status or influence, she was turned away and dismissed as a mad girl.
Undeterred, Ariana turned to the only person who might believe her - the king's daughter, Princess Isabelle. The princess was known for her kind heart and her love for adventure, and she immediately took an interest in Ariana's story. Together, they snuck out of the castle and ventured into the forest to seek answers from the spirits.
Meanwhile, Balthazar's plans were coming to fruition. With the sorceress' help, he had raised an army of the undead, ready to march on the capital and claim the throne. But he had one last obstacle in his path - the king's eldest son, Prince Adrian.
Adrian had always been a skilled warrior, but he was also known for his hot temper and impulsive actions. He refused to believe Balthazar's claims that the king was corrupt and needed to be overthrown. In a fit of anger, he challenged Balthazar to a duel, unaware of the dark magic that the advisor had at his disposal.
As Adrian fought Balthazar, Isabelle and Ariana were deep in the forest, communicating with the spirits. They were shocked to find out that the chosen one mentioned in the prophecy was not one person, but three - a warrior, a mage, and a seer.
Isabelle knew that her brother was the warrior, and Ariana was the seer. But they were still missing the mage, and they had no idea where to find them. It was then that one of the forest spirits revealed that the mage was none other than Balthazar's illegitimate daughter, who had been cast out and abandoned by him.
The three women quickly made their way back to the castle, where they found Adrian gravely injured from the dark magic used by Balthazar. Together, they rushed to find the mage and bring her back to the castle to help save the kingdom.
As Balthazar's forces approached the castle, the three women joined forces and used their skills to defeat the sorceress and her army of the undead. In the end, it was Ariana's connection with the spirits that allowed her to see through the sorceress' illusions and discover her weak spot, while Isabelle's quick thinking and sharp archery skills helped defeat the undead, and the mage's powerful magic shielded them from harm.
With the sorceress defeated, Balthazar's true intentions were revealed to the kingdom, and he was overthrown and arrested. The king, who had finally realized the truth behind the prophecy, apologized to Ariana and welcomed her into the royal family. Together, the three women used their unique abilities to bring peace and prosperity back to the kingdom, fulfilling the prophecy and avenging the darkness that threatened their home.
