The Goddess Factor

Rather than waiting for all the cast to do a photo story,I'm just going to go ahead, and write a few chapters just to get the story out of my head,and introduce the characters gradually.


THE DREAMING PT.1
She fell asleep as soon as her head hit the pillow;exhausted from a long day of study,and learning about the world that she was suddenly thrust into.So much had happened during the time she was in Sidhe Court;the world she knew no longer existed,and the world ,she now lived in was filled with new wonders,and new dangers.Trying to learn it all would take several lifetimes to learn;as it was she had so much to catch up on ,in order to fit in.Yet something,inside her,kept telling her,that there was something wrong;something she couldn't put her finger on.
She looked forward to the letters from her uncle;who often wrote long detailed missives telling her of his travels,and places he had been.Many times she wished she could join him in his travels but knew that it wasn't safe.Thre was so much she wanted to ask him, but like the wind he was here ,and gone,but at least she had her constant companion, Sir Edward Bear to keep her safe.
The dreams began pleasantly enough, she was back in her own time, with her parents;surrounded ,and protected by their love.Her parents, how she missed them; her tall gallant father,and her beautiful mother.Though their union was not frowned upon, it certainly wasn't welcomed.At least not by the Sidhe court,where her mother's people lived.Her mother,was a Bardic Mage;and next in line for the throne;she was known as the Lady of the Stars.Many elven courtier had tried to win her love,and her hand,but she would have none,for she knew they only wanted her for the throne,and to gain access to her power.It wasn't until she met Amergin; a human bard;that she lost her heart.They married shortly after,and barely a year passed before Heather was born.
Never was a child so loved by her parents,than Heather was; for although the Sidhe were long lived,there hasn't been a child born to them in over two hundred years.Heather,although being half elf, was very much welcomed indeed.
Then came the War,and Heather's world came crashing down.Although,she was half elven, she was raised in the human world.Her father was called to battle,to rally the troops against the invading hordes,her mother not wanting to leave his side;joined the battle at his side.The battle was going well, then suddenly the tide was turned.The Dark Queen taking an interest in the War; decided to amuse herself;and sent her agents to take Amergin,and Aldebaran prisoner.She had long since desired Amergin ,but to her fury,he turned down her offer to become a king and rule at her side.The fact that he married Aldebaran,and sired a child,did not escape her,and she made plans to take the child,and corrupt her to the ways of the Unseelie,to punish Amergin.
It would have worked,it should have worked but for one little factor that the Dark Queen didn't count on;Amergin's twin brother Llewelyn.Getting wind of the Dark Queen's plan,he smuggled Heather out of her grandsire's court,and called upon the Seelie Court to protect the child,until he could rescue her parents.It was the last time she saw the Outside world.
Moaning in her sleep, she clutched the bear closer,as a feeling of urgency gave rise to panic. Something was coming, good or bad,she didn't know, but it was coming for her....
