The Cursed Twin
The story started a thousand years ago, there was a mighty empire name "Sapientia". The empire was blessed with a pair of twins named Elysian Lilianna Sapientia and Pandora Persephone Sapientia. The two of them thought their bonds as a sister would go against any odds, however, they were separated at a young age to be trained by different masters so that they can master the magic better. Pandora was trained by a fox tribe since she was so tricky and quite Witty while Elysian were trained by a cat tribe since she is far more curious and laid back. Elysian who finished her studies earlier returned to the empire first and was made an Empress as their father died due to illness. She was a wonderful empress who lead with pride and spread kindness everywhere she went yet most of her people hate her and visited the God Of Calamity, a curse was set on her and the kind empress turn into someone evil, heartless and ruled by an iron fist. Her peoples suffer the curse together with no way to end it. Hundreds of years later, Pandora has returned to her homeland. She was devastated and shocked at how much Sapient Empire change.
Thankfully for her, some of the old people there tell her about how Elysian was cursed by the God Of Calamity because of her people who have hatred for the girl. Rage arises from inside her, how could people be so heartless and cursed a girl that was so kind? With bravery and determination, Pandora gathers a troupe. She led the rebellion against her sister. The only hope she have was to save her from the curse. Days turn weeks and weeks turn to months, Pandora finally arrives at the castle. She met her sister again after all those years they were apart.
"Elysian, how could you do this our people!? Why did you take the curse?!" She asked her in pure rage. Elysian let out a laugh that echoes through the hallway. She gets down from the throne and walked to Pandora.
"Pandora, my beloved sister. Can you see that I'm myself, ?!" She says sweetly before turning to a loud tone and attacking Pandora. Pandora knows she has no choice but to kill her. A couple of moments later, Elysian was already on her knees.
"Forgive me my sunflower, I'm returning too late. The one who should take this curse was me not you. If there is a chance we were born again, I still wanna be your sister and protect you from all this hatred." She says holding Elysian's face. Tears make their way down her face. Elysian eyes turn back to her normal eyes.
"Please...kill me" Elysian begged. Obeying her sister's request. She used her sword and slashed at Elysian's neck, blood coming out of it as Elysian take her last breath. Pandora hugged her sister's body and let out a piercing cry. Not long after, the knight comes in and saw the two sisters together.
"Pandora has died. She disguised as me and ruled as a tyrant. My beloved Sapientians! We have won the wars and from today onward there would be no empires or empires or emperors ruling this place. Freedom should always win." Pandora lied to them. The people's cheers echo through the castle wall and beyond.
10 nights after that, Sapientia Empire has been rebuilt with no rulers to rule over it. Everything has gone back to how it was. Pandora takes a seat next to Elysian's grave as she looks at the night sky.
"I hope you're happy there, Ely. You are now known as Lady Of Peace while I'm known for being Lady Of Chaos. I met your master too, she is quite hard to follow, isn't she?." Pandora speak and laughed to her own. She talks there for hours as if she talking with Elysian.
Pandora takes the identity of Elysian and keeps being one of the people of Sapientia who protected her homeland. On her last day, she created two schools at the remains of what was once the Empire now an island. Pandora Night Academy, The Allies of Chaos and Elysian Dawn Academy, The Protector of Mankind. The Empire is now known as the Isle Of Sapient.
"Lilith, please protect and watch over the students of Pandora as you, Belian protect and watch over students of Elysian...Hello there...Elysian."
"This was the story of Pandora and Elysian the founder of Pandora Night College and Elysian Dawn Academy. The next time we meet, I'll tell you guys a story about how Pandora Night College and Elysian Dawn Academy got their dormitory and sponsors." Xylia says as she closes the book in her, her ebony black eyes looking at the pairs in front of her. A cat with fiery blue ears looked at her impatiently.
"Eh?! That's all? Ore-Sama want to hear more about!" The cat say in dissatisfaction.
"Grim, Didn't you say that story telling is for kids?" A boy with blonde hair and pinkish highlights teased the so called "Grimm"
"SHUT UP"Grim yelled in embarrassment. A laugh escapes Xylia's mouth as she disappeared back to her dormitory.
"What a great pair of friends."
