Black Princess

Twenty years passed since Leda stolen the royal swan, but more than that. She took away from me the most valuable thing: my mother.

During all my life I traveled all the world looking for her.

But now that journey is coming to an end.

- Guard, is your guest comfortable?
- Yes, just as you wish, queen.

- It’s good to see a sister of blood.

- I head you saw a strange thing in Sentinel recently. 
- A ship, coming from west, from nowhere, with no one inside.

- I traveled enough in my life to know that the world is more than Tamriel.
- That’s all I know.
- The last time I saw something like that was the day when it happened. I was a child. I never forgot that surfacing ship.

- A surfacing ship? 
- That ship belongs to my family. A long time ago, when we weren’t vampires yet, we were common sailors, browsing beyond the known by the people of Tamriel. Far away from here, almost in the other side of the world, we reached a war zone. That place looked like another world to us. Bad things happened and becoming vampires was our only way to survive, and it affected the ship. We learned forbidden magics from a woman that was desperate to leave that place, so she became part of family. At that time, my mother was pregnant of me. My parents had the chance to go away, but with power they were able to end that war. After that, they were declared the king and the queen of Sauferia, but Leda didn’t like that, she was jealous. When I was grown enough to cast magic, she used me to make things for her, in exchange she was teaching me more magic. Twenty years ago we all knew who she really was. After killing my mother, she defeated thirty guards, stolen the swan and ran away. That swan eggs have a special magic that can bring someone back from death and keep someone immortal. She knew it, then went to the beach and made the ship surface from sea bottom. 
- That’s a sad history. You never told me it. 
- Now I know I can trust you. Thank you for telling me that.

Your time to pay your debts is coming, Leda. You can’t run away anymore.

The sacred temple will be restored to its glory and my mother will be in peace. It’s not fair to bring her back to life after all these years.
