Aaricia and the Noland Army, Richard Shekari [classic books for 11 year olds TXT] 📗

all stood in horror as the Queen transformed into a new being.
“Nowhere to run, big sister!” she said, “Nowhere to hide!” she charged ahead flying into the air, raising the sword to strike Aaricia when a great lightning struck her, emitting an enormous spark. The only thing that descended was the sword, accompanied by flakes of ashes. The sword landed with one third of it buried in the ground still in flames.
Aaricia left the men and walked towards the sword, crying, she fetched the ashes, wetting the floor with her tears, the ashes absorbed her tears. She then stood up to pick the word.
“Please don’t!” said Zack, “I need you!”
“Don’t do it, my lady!” cried Karazan, “The kingdom isn’t worth your life!”
She turned to them but ignored their warnings. Aaricia walked without emotions to the burning sword, and as soon as she touched it, the fire quenched and the blade turned blue and glowed, and so did she.
Light shone upon the men and the gryphons almost blinding them, they turned their eyes away, and the sword dimmed its light.
Roses and flowers grew beneath the men’s feet and in all the surroundings.
Aaricia’s smile was frozen by the sight of her grandfather. A relieved Karazan, an excited Zack and peeing Simo, the gryphons, the guards, noblemen and the Noland army bowed before her and embraced the presence and essence of a new dawn of peace.
