Okay, even though I love you people, steal this and I kill you.

I don't have a title for this story yet, but who knows, this might turn into my first novel.
Give it a bit, and you might see it on the shelves of a bookstore.
*dreaming*
8D
Oh btw, this most likely is a chapter or two into the story.
xD


"Mother!" Kaylaniah yelled, almost out of breath from the run to the entrance of the Shaylanir Cavern, a place she was forbidden to enter without her mother's permission. Her mother was the Latira, the High Priestess, of the Naviralii, an order that worshiped Medor, the Dragon Slayer God. She stumbled to the entrance and knelt before her mother, giving her the respect that all acolytes must give their High Priestess, mother or not.
"Yes, Valynai Kaylaniah?" The Latira asked in a subdued tone, knowing that it would irritate her, just as the scalding she delivered by the use of her rank, Valynai. To call the High Priestess mother in front of those lower than her was not allowed, and Niah should've remembered that.
"Uhh.. Can.. Can I come this time, Latira?" She stuttered, nervous of her mothers answer, and the rebuke she had just received.
"I guess so, if you believe you are ready." The Latira clapped her hands together, took a deep breath, then pointed back to Niah's room. "Run and change. We shall wait for you here, but be warned, if you are not back by the time the sun hits the horizon, we will enter without you. And you know that without me present, you cannot enter."
"Yes Latira!" Niah bounded up gleefully, almost forgetting to bow before running off to her room to change into her ceremonial gown.
They watched her run back to her room, happiness evident in every step. "Latira, are you sure this is wise?" A young priestess asked, concerned for the young girl.
"Of course, Sania. Of course." The Latira said with a nasty grin on her face.
