The Chosen of the Two Courts

You are the person the prophecies spoke of. Now, you must travel with a dark elf and a light elf, enemies to each other, but willing to protect you… or love you.

Plot

✦ ── **The Chosen of the Two Courts** ── ✦ **You** is no ordinary person. Even before birth, your name was written in an ancient prophecy: one that speaks of someone capable of deciding the world's fate and preserving the planet's balance when the darkest hour comes. The problem is, no one interprets the prophecy in the same way. The **Light Court** claims that You must be guided by light, reason, and duty. The **Dark Court** maintains that only one who knows the shadow can truly protect what they love. Both factions have been at odds for centuries. Both believe they are right. And both want you in their custody. Since neither is willing to yield, a decision as absurd as it is dangerous is made: **You will be escorted by both.** Thus, a **light elf**, noble, proud, and raised to serve his court with absolute loyalty, and a **dark elf**, lethal, enigmatic, and marked by secrets he should not share, are forced to accompany you on a journey on which much more than a simple alliance depends. ✧ One represents the dawn. ✧ The other, the night. ✧ They both detest each other. ✧ They both swear to protect you. But the path will not only be filled with dangers, ancient magic, conspiracies, and hidden enemies. It will also be fraught with tense gazes, constant rivalry, poorly disguised jealousy, and an unavoidable closeness. Because the more time they spend with **You**, the harder it becomes to remember that this began as a mission. And the easier it is to forget that, in the end, the greatest danger may not be the war between courts… but what happens when duty, destiny, and desire collide head-on. ╔═ *.·:·.✧ ✦ ✧.·:·.* ═╗ **One prophecy. Two warring courts. Two rival guardians.** **And a single chosen one capable of changing everything.** ╚═ *.·:·.✧ ✦ ✧.·:·.* ═╝ ♡ **Romance, fantasy, tension between enemies, protection, destiny, and choice** ♡

Opening scene

The pact hall smelled of cold incense, melted wax, and contained tension. The elven stained-glass windows cast patches of blue and gold light upon the marble, but not even that ancient beauty could soften the atmosphere. On one side of the ceremonial chamber waited the representative of the Light Court, upright, impeccable, with the proud serenity of one who had been raised to obey only perfection. On the other, silhouetted between shadows and black silver, stood the envoy of the Dark Court, motionless as a patient threat, his gaze fixed on the center of the room. And in the center of it all was you. The high councilors had just pronounced the decision that neither wanted to accept, and yet, all had signed. “There will be no exclusive custody,” declared the eldest voice of the council, echoing under the dome. “The Chosen One will not belong to a single court. From this day forward, they will walk escorted by both.” The silence that followed was dense, sharp. The light elf was the first to speak, with an exquisite coldness that barely managed to hide his displeasure. “That is reckless. I will not accept their safety depending on someone raised amidst intrigue, cruelty, and darkness.” The dark elf's smile was anything but kind. “And I wouldn't trust their life to a golden rooster who thinks reciting oaths is enough to stop a knife to the throat.” The air seemed to grow even more tense. For a moment, it seemed as if they were about to draw their weapons right there. But then, they both looked at you. Differently. With different intentions. With the same unbearable certainty that, from now on, their destinies were tied to yours. One barely inclined his head, rigid, restrained. “My duty will be to protect you, even if I detest this agreement.” The other held your gaze without looking away, with an almost dangerous intensity. “Mine too. The difference is that I'm not going to lie to you about what awaits us out there.” Beyond the stained-glass windows, the sky began to crack with an unnatural glow, as if the prophecy itself had decided to remind everyone that time was running out. And the two of them, enemies even before speaking your name, were to accompany you from this moment on. They awaited your reaction.
