About the kingdom: There was a Myth about the kindgom that someday it would come. And this the myth is a long story youll ever read.
The exit is sealed. This trembling loosens the sarcophagus, and as Ico shifts inside it, it falls over, freeing him. He passes out and dreams of a long spiral staircase in a tall room. Outside the windows are dark storm clouds, and at the top of the room a cage hangs, holding a pitch black figure of a small girl sitting. As their eyes meet, Ico is consumed by shadows emerging from the wall behind him.
Ico wakes up later and eventually makes his way to the room he dreamt of. As he ascends the stairs, he sees the same cage, except now there is a pale girl, clad in black, inside it.
Ico frees the girl and discovers she can open the magic doors he cannot. When they finally arrive at the open main gate, they set off happily for it. As they close in, however, the gate begins to close. Ico rushes for the door, hand in hand with the girl because well, the girl has lost her memory. As they near it, the girl stumbles and falls. In a cloud of darkness, a huge figure appears. The dark figure is the queen of the castle and reveals herself as the girl's mother. She tells her daughter: "Yorda, why can't you understand? You will not fifill the prophecey in the outside world." Her appearance makes it clear that she controls the shadow monsters in the castle. The queen then disappears. The doors stay shut, so the 2 seeks another way out of the castle.
Ico and Yorda manage to open the gate and reach the bridge to leave the castle. The queen reappears and retracts the bridge, separating Ico and Yorda. Ico, determined to save Yorda from the castle, jumps the gap back toward the castle. He doesn't jump far enough but Yorda catches his hand. As she tries to help him onto the ledge, a dark shadow creeps over the landscape, petrifying Yorda. Yorda has to let go of Ico's hand, plunging him downwards towards the sea.
Ico awakens on a cage suspended from chains underneath the retracted bridge, far below the castle. Ico makes his way in pouring rain through the belly of the castle, all the way back to the northern part of the castle. He finds the very cave where the prisioners lived. The magic sword is in the same place, so Ico can now enter the hall with the sarcophagi. He finds Yorda, now turned to stone. Shadowy ghosts appear, and they mischievously dance around him without trying to harm him. Each time Ico defeats one of them, one of the sarcophagus's magic symbols start glowing. When all the spirits are vanquished a stairway that leads out of the hall appears. The stairway leads the boy into a large, seemingly abandoned throne room.
The room and the throne appear empty, but when Ico decides to leave, the queen's voice calls him. When Ico turns back to see where the voice came from, the queen is sitting on her throne. Angry, Ico demands to know what the queen has done to Yorda. The queen replies that it is too late anyway and reveals her plans. The queen is aging and she wants to grant herself another life by seizing Yorda's body. Ico, desperate to undo what has been done, runs at her with his sword drawn. He is knocked back, and one of his horns snaps off on impact with the wall. A battle follows, the magic sword shielding Ico from the queen's magic attacks. Finally Ico manages to reach the queen and plunge the sword into her heart. With her final breath, the queen tells Ico that Yorda will never leave the castle. In a magic blast the queen disappears and the castle begins to crumble. Ico is hurled by the blast all the way across the hall and is knocked unconscious.
The sarcophagi start to glow and bolts of magic energy break the curse that petrified Yorda. Yorda however is no longer pale, but dark like the shadows that had tried to kidnap her. She quickly understands what has happened and seeing that the castle is crumbling around her she decides to rescue Ico as he rescued her. She brings Ico to the boat in the cave where the warriors first landed. She chooses not to join him. Ico's boat is then shown floating away from the crumbling castle. Before the whole castle collapses into the ocean, the strange door guardians are shown glowing intensely.
Later Ico awakens, finding his boat washed upon a beach. He travels along the coast until he finds Yorda inexplicably washed up on the shore. No longer black and shadow-like, Yorda is dressed in white like when they first met, yet her face and body have more color than her original extremely pale skin. As Ico approaches her, her fingers curl and she slowly opens her eyes, whispering something.
Yet the day of the Myth had never happend. Yet they also hope it doesnt happen but they know, who are they you ask? The shadow-demons.
(Disclammer: This myth is acully a game called Ico for those who dont know i twisted it a bit. Just a bit.)
Rules: You are not allowed to fly, and use powers in this kingdom. Though you may use weapons.
When fighting with the queen: Only a typical sword can defeat the queen.
More Information: Search for on Youtube, Ico and look at the one with 1:36:35 around that... and the continued one to really see how it all looks.

Reigne let out a dramatic bored yawn before scratching the back of his head, "No problem Peanut, I'm sure I'll find my way out, no problem! Dragons are famous for their deep caves and treasure hoards, not many people can get out of those. This is probably the same case, more or less."
Reigne stretched his long leathery wings, "Come on, we're comming for you Rio!"

As soon as Reigene and Abella got passed the bridge, they went through the laser wall which feels nothing. Abella got controlled, she rawred. "Who are you?!! Oh whatever you are." She froze his body and pulled him to the prisioner's rooms. She quickly puted him in a stone that was glowing which is the sarcophagus. Reigene's hands were solid and ice. Like hands in a huge cube.

'She wasn't kidding about her mind, was she?' Reigne thought. His hands felt cold, which was actually very strange for him. He didn't like being in the prisioner's rooms, and he decided he rather not be in one.
He glared at Abella and stuck out his tounge, "Once a twerp, always a twerp!" Reigne snorted before letting out a laugh. He held his arms and inhauled sharply, before breathing out fire, catching a piece of furtiture a flame. That would warm things up a little, wouldn't it?

Abella left pulling the far away lever up not caring what Reigene would say cause sooner or later, she would drain his power and keep it. The door closed, and she continued to walk looking up at Rio and left in darkness.

Reigne started walking around the castle, all the while repeating the same phrase. "RIO!" he would shout at the top of his lungs before waiting, trying to hear if someone would call out his name in answer.
Reigne finally stopped and let out a sigh, still listening to the darkness. He was getting tired, and he wanted desperatly to sleep. "I can't," he told himself shaking his head. "If I fall asleep, who knows what will happen to me, right?"

Reigne looked up, the large cage hanging overhead. What was a cage doing hanging from the ceiling? It was odd to him, and he decided to check it out, eventually.
Reigne collapsed into a sitting position, leaning against a wall. He let his head fall back, sweat dripping off his face. This castle was driving him mad, and it was getting to him, just a little. He closed his eyes, breathing deeply. 'Rose, Faris, Ayana. If I die, I'm sorry' he thought.

Rio looked up holding the cage bars, she wonder whats going on, she for some reason spotted a boy, she just blinked once, and something weird happen, Rio wasnt sure of herself. This white light, no lighting, was going everywhere, everywhere looked white, and began to glow, she suddenly just healed everywhere for no reason, and including that boy, "Weird," she thought,

Reigne's eyes snapped open, just as he had started drifting asleep. He rushed under the cage and shouted, "RIO!" he screamed at the top of his lungs. A deep growl arose in his throat and his eyes turned to the color of blood with his fury. "Who did this to you?" he demanded. "Tell me where they went so I can tear them limb from limb!"

Rio a bit scared, got farther from Reigene, as backing away, she looked at the boy again. "Who are you?" Rio said, in a soft voice.
