Welcome to Gaia! ::

A tragic yet inspiring tale of the most influential Queen of Bellris since Antari centers around the seven daughters of Grevillia and her lover Ither.

Long ago, once the Kingdom of Darkness had officially became the Queendom of Bellris and enacted the law that no man, lest he be the last of the line, was to sit upon the throne of Bellris, the way of life they were trying to establish was threatened. Queen Trezia bore three sons; Midir the Vile, Harlow the Wicked, and Wrathe the Abomination. Midir was beautiful of face but horrifying of personality, Harlow was the second born and it was said that he was both horrid of mind and of body; that every step he took would cause putrid water to rise from the driest of ground, and Wrathe the Abomination- the third born to Trezia would grow to be a giant of nine feet high with a withered arm and two conjoined lifeless heads on either side of his own and muscles larger then most men. Trezia had tried for a daughter dozens of times after she bore her three sons but any time she tried to have more children they would either be born still or go missing soon after the birth...with only a splatter of blood in their cribs as to any indication that they had actually once been their. Scared that the kingdom would pass to one of her sons, Trezia would look to her niece, Grevillia, a woman who had never married nor planned to but had had seven daughters by her lover. Trezia would go to her niece and beg of her to allow her to adopt her daughters, even one would do, she would tell Grevillia, but no matter how desperate Trezia became Grevillia refused...perhaps because she knew of how monstrous Trezia's children where...or maybe because she knew the law better then her aunt.

The time for asking would soon be stopped when one night the three brothers would come to Grevillia's mansion while she was away and start to kill the household...The only one their at the time despite the staff, was Grevillia's youngest daughter Atropa, barely 15 at the time, who offered herself to Midir in exchange that he would leave the rest of the house alone. Midir would accept and he would take her back to the capital, his younger brothers Harlow and Wrathe would follow behind him. When Grevillia and her older daughters returned from town to find the mansion covered in blood and the youngest missing they planned revenge...While back at the castle Midir would assassinate Trezia and attempt to kill his two younger brothers as well...this would lead to an entire year where the throne of Bellris would be vacant as the three brothers would fight amongst themselves for the crown.

While they fought the sisters Alessalie, Donna, Dynova, Camellia, Renuka and Napaysha would plan and ready themselves...Napaysha however was the smartest of them and she would devise a plan using the old construction papers detailing the castles secret passages and traps on the ground; what Napaysha planned would be as follows.

Her eldest sisters Alessalie and Donna would stand guard at the front gate with spears at the ready, Dynova would be ready with a sword above them, ready to jump down...Camellia would be stationed in the courtyard near the fountain where Renuka would be hiding in the bushes across from her with a whip at the ready while Napaysha herself would enter the castle to find Atropa. The plan worked almost perfectly... While Harlow was walking around the castle he would see Camellia standing outside and he would walk out to the fountain only to be restrained by the whip and drowned by Renuka...Wrathe hearing the commotion would walk out the only exit he could...the front door and Alessalie and Donna would incapasiate him, sending him to the ground when Dynova would send a sword though the center head...Napaysha during this time would find Atropa locked away in the dungeons. She would help her out and they would be walking toward the front gate when they would be ambushed by Midir. A fight would occur and it would take all seven of the sisters to take him down, the finishing blow would come from both Atropa and Napaysha, as Atropa could manage to stab him in the throat just as Napaysha decapitated him...

With the heirs dead Grevillia would become the Queen of Bellris, Alessalie was supposed to become the Queen after her death but instead the sisters spoke with each other and upon Napaysha's 18th birthday, each one in order abdicated the throne and pledged themselves to Napaysha's rule, they all would say to their sister "We will guard your line and birth no children so that your wisdom may continue on though the line for generations to come"...with this Grevillia would step down and retire with her lover to the country. Napaysha would become the most influential queen of Bellris since Antari, her rule would lead to peace and growth and she would be succeeded by her only daughter Reslin, who would add to her legacy.

Napaysha I would be the last one to be alive as her sisters would all die one by one in service to Napaysha and on the death of each of her sisters she would name a light in the sky after them...and when her own daughter came of age Napaysha would vanish...some say she would join her sisters in the stars, others would say she would join her gypsy lover Tyba, and her son Eremurus on the road... but whatever truly happened, Napaysha's departure would lead to "Napaysha's Law", an unspoken law where each Queen would retire when their own daughters would come of age....
