Magical Love Story

A magical love story

Once upon a time, as almost every good story starts, at the time when the Yellow Dwarf was born and the medieval times began, there was a charming house in the middle of a magical forest called Organdi. Which was part of the humble kingdom of Petrichor. People there, did not needed much and loved simplicity. Its citizens were mostly peasants, bakers, merchants and artists. The legend says that Petrichor was not always like it was then. Formerly, flowers used to give their beauty all over the village, abundance was real for everyone, and birds were able to sing an understandable song. But one day, things changed. They came to knowledge that the King felt so deeply in love with the Queen that he got all the village’s people

She was an avid writer that painted with words what many weren’t able to do with images. Empty sheets were for her like a canvas waiting to be guided by her imagination.

He walked directly to her and with a sweet touch and great sense of humor, introduced himself. After flirting and laughing, he, finally, told her she had something that belonged to him. Nervously she tried to apologize. But, without letting her finish, he, also, said that maybe that wasn’t the only thing she had that belonged to him and she gave a hint of a smile. Then, he invited her to take a ride with him and let him try his best to give her a real and magical reason to smile. For a moment silence took over yet without thinking it twice, she said yes. So, each one of them took their horse and went directly in the direction the Yellow Dwarf was falling. Of course, it was fun… and of course they didn’t know, if that something magical they were after was just simply love.
