Set in no particular time period, it parallels the journey of a young barbarian (Nomad), a young magician (Liam), and a mystical minotaur (Hoof), as they search for self...] ____________________________________________________________________________ WARRIOR REALM Chapter-9/The Goblin Queen While the Ogre, Nomad, and Liam were on their journey (chap-8), the Maiden Joy decided to prolong the imposter Prince's ascension to Kinghood by going back to the Castle to declare the King was still alive. She wandered through the City's front gates, escorted up to the Royal Castle by Centurion Guards who knew Prince Vincent would be happy to see his fair maiden once again. However, the reunion was a hollow one, with both the Prince and the Maiden pretending to have missed one another. The Maiden declared aloud in front of the Royal Court that she personally saw the King still alive before she escaped the Ogre's sleeping clutches. The Prince and the Queen gave uneasy gestures as the Queen ordered servants to retire the Maiden to her room to freshen and pamper after her ordeal. "My Queen..., with word that the King still lives, should we not engage another search of the Forest...?" asked the head Guard, eagerly. "Nay..." answered the Queen, already knowing the truth. "...the Maiden Joy had been through a lot over the past several days..., I propose that instead of searching aimlessly for my husband in vain..., that we honor her return with a wedding! Tomorrow my step son the Prince will wed the Maiden Joy! Let the joyous word be spread throughout the city, for tomorrow is the grand wedding! It is what my husband would have wanted...!" said her majesty. Preparations for the wedding started immediately. Around the clock and into the wee hours before the dawn, the chefs, maids, and designers, cooked, cleaned, and decorated every square inch of the Royal Palace. By midmorning the Maiden Joy was donned in her rippling white wedding dress, --her parents crying joyously at her beauty. "You look so beautiful, Joy..., just as we've always pictured you...!" said her mother with happy tears. I'm just glad it's to a Royal..." said the father, "...there's no way WE could have afforded a wedding of this magnitude!" "Mother...father..., you don't understand...!" said the Maiden Joy. "We know you're nervous, sweetheart..., but you will learn to fit in with the Royal family...!" advised her mother. "It's not that...!" said the Maiden, ripping off her vale. "You don't understand what's going on here...!" she said, as her parents gathered closer. "Prince Vincent..., isn't Prince Vincent...!" she whispered, just as the private door burst open... "I see you are ready..., good..." said the Queen, waltzing into the Maiden's dressing room. The Maiden's guests and servants bowed to her Royal Highness as she approached in her long formal gown. "The guests are arriving, my dear...! We should be moving along shortly...!" "But..." started the Maiden, trying to find time to linger longer..., "...what about your Royal guests from the cities of Xanidu and Symonia...? Would not their presents take 3 days journey to get here...?" "I'm sure our Royal friends will forgive us, dear..." smiled the Queen, "...you would not want to keep the Prince waiting after he's missed you so much, now would you...?" "Well..., it's just..." thought the Maiden, trying not to sound suspicious. "...I know how long you've waited to marry off Prince Vincent..., I would not want to be the cause to rush the wedding ahead of schedule...!" "Nonsense...!" said the Queen, defiantly. "YOU are slated to be the next Queen of Newtonian..., AFTER I'm gone of course...! You cannot be expected to put your lives on hold when life is so precious! Once you are married, people will expect you to bare a son...in homage to our King!" "A son...?" asked the Maiden, wondering if it would look like the Ogre...? "Of course..., do you not want to bare children with the new King of Newtonian...?" asked the Queen. "Yes, of course I do...!" said the maiden, respectfully. "...but should we not search for the King...? I mean..., he IS still alive..., I saw him myself...!" "How could you be sure what you saw girl...? You were running for your life, were you not? My husband would not want to see his only son's wedding postponed indefinitely, searching for him in vain! He would want us all to go on with our lives..., for you two to marry and have his grandchildren! Would you not want to fulfill your King's wish...?" "Why yes, of course your Highness..., I just thought, it would be nice for Vincent if his father were here to witness it!" said the maiden, giving it one more shot. "Vincent and I have talked the matter over, dear Joy..., and he agrees that the wedding should go on as scheduled!" said the Queen, ending the discussion. "Now dear..., shall I go cue the musicians and tell them that we are ready...?" she added, turning away. "Oh DEAR...!" gasped the Maiden, purposely ripped the seam in her wedding gown as she stood from her chair. Her parents and the servants all gasped aloud as the rip could be heard throughout the room. The Queen watched non-amused as the Maiden began to undress, handing the fabulously flowing gown to the servants to rush to the town's tailor. "I shall...inform Vincent that we will be just a tad bit longer...!" said the Queen coldly, before walking briskly out the door. The servants fussed over the Maiden's hair and makeup as her parents scolded her for ripping such an elegant gown and angering the Queen. The delay only lasted an hour before the music started in the Grand Ball room. Trumpets sound majestically outside the Castle walls, signaling to all of Newtonian the start of the celebrations. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ "What is that sound...?" asked Nomad, still a mile or so from the city. "oh no..." whispered the Ogre under breathe, "...that is the sound of my wedding...! Joy must have gone back to the Castle to keep the Prince from being crowned King while I was gone! Hurry..., we must stop the wedding before she marries him...!!" yelled the Ogre, running forth. "Stop a wedding...?" asked Liam, running behind. "...how are we supposed to do that...?" "We CRASH it..., then kill the Goblin Queen in the process!" yelled the Ogre, already ahead. "But won't that..., make up the most hated people in Newtonian...??" he asked, realizing the odds against them. "We must do it, or Joy will be at the hands of that monster forever...!!" Back at the royal Castle, the guests all wait with baited breaths as the Prince was escorted down the aisle by his Royal step-mother the Queen. They all looked on proudly, most having known the Prince since his birth. They watched as he elegantly guided his step mother to her throne. "Mother..." he whispered so along she could hear. "...I am so hungry..., I hunger for the taste of human flesh...!" "Soon, my son..., soon we will feast, and the peasants of this hateful city will bow at our feet...!!" smiled the Queen, kissing his cheek before sitting down at the head of the Royal Hall. Prince Vincent took his place at the foot of aisle, awaiting his lovely bride. The maiden Joy awaited nervously outside the Ball Room doors, under heavy guard for her protection (incase the Ogre were to attack). She fought the urge to run away just as the Palace doors opened. The guests all gasped at her beautiful white gown as she begin her course down the aisle. At the foot of the aisle stood the imposter, smiling broadly as he took in her beauty for the first time. He reached out his hand to her as she approached, walking her the rest of the way as they stood before the Queen, and the royal Clergyman. "It is my honor to perform this ceremony in the absence of our beloved King! Let us bow our heads and pray to the gods that he is found quickly and safe, so that he may rule of this great City for many more years to come!" Everyone bowed their heads and made silent prayers to their gods for the safety of their beloved King, while the Maiden Joy prayed for a quick return of the Ogre and his companions to save her from this nightmare. "Before we begin this ceremony, is there anyone within this room that knows why these two should not be joined together in matrimony...?" Everyone looked around questionably as a silence befell the room. "...let them speak now, or forever hold their peace...!" "I object...!" said the Maiden, getting an unforgiving gasp from the room. "But..., WHY my child...?" asked the clergyman, shocked by the Maiden's interruption. "I...I just feel it isn't right to hold a marriage ceremony while our King is still missing!" declared the Maiden, much to the Queen's chagrin. "I THOUGHT we discussed this already, child...?" said the Queen in a controlled tone from her throne. "We did, your majesty..., it's just..., I would really prefer to wait...!" "Wait for what...?" asked Prince Vincent, "...is it not likely that my father is already dead..., eaten by the Ogre...?" he asked, absent minded of the squeamish shrills coming from his guests. "No...! The Ogre is not evil...!" declared the Maiden, much to the disagreement of the Royal Clergy. "Did you just say that the Ogre is not evil...?" asked the Queen, sounding astonished by the statement. "He isn't...!" said the Maiden in defiance. "She is obviously under the spell of the Ogre..., seize her and throw her in the dungeon!" ordered the Queen. But before any of the Royal Guards could descend, there was a ruckus outside the Palace doors, catching the attention of everyone in the room. Then all of a sudden, the doors came crashing open as several of the Palace Guards were blown backwards into the crowd. Screams filled the Great Hall as all eyes focused on the doorway... "Leave the Maiden alone...!!" yelled the Ogre, appearing in the Palace doorway. Wedding guests ran in every direction, trampling over each other to escape. "The Ogre...!" yelled the Queen, pointing. "...kill him!!!" "No...!!" screamed the Maiden as Guards readied their arrows. "...he's NOT the Ogre...!!" she declared too late, as arrows flew quickly in his direction. But the fast moving Ogre quickly jumped out of the way, picking up a bench (which acted as a shield and stopped most of the speeding arrows) and hurling it towards his assailants. "See..., he attacks! He means to eat us all! Kill him!!" ordered the Queen. From the side entrance, Liam appeared, concentrating as he began to conjure a spell... The Queen sensed magic being used against her, and quickly countered the spell with one of her own, rendering his useless. Prince Vincent grabbed a sword from one of the fallen Guards, and charged the Ogre with a battle cry of anger and frustration. The Ogre (already missing an arm) moved quickly, dodging the Prince's best efforts as he swung the sword wildly and uneducated. "The true Prince Vincent was taught the skill of sword fighting by the age of 5...!" teased the Ogre, leaping up to swing from one of the low hanging chandeliers. "I AM the true Prince Vincent...!" growled the Prince. "Doubt it...!" said the Ogre, landing on his feet. "...if you were, I doubt I'd be able to do THIS...!" With that, the Ogre kicked Prince Vincent across the room, causing him to land on the Maiden Joy's parents. While Prince Vincent was disposed, the Ogre charged the Queen... "You will find me NOT quite so easily dismissed, creature...!" she said, turning her magics towards him. The Ogre felt an invisible chokehold grip his throat, cutting off his oxygen supply as his body was frozen still in stasis. "My...Queen...!" gasped the Royal Clergyman, taken aback by the Queen's seemingly newfound powers. At that precise moment while the room was still in uproar, Liam attempted another spell, causing the chains from the overhead chandelier to magically soar across the room and wrap around the Queen, holding her bound. "Do you truly believe these chains will hold me, little Magician...??" asked the Queen, already generating a spell to dissolve them. "Now Nomad..., while she's distracted...!" yelled Liam. From out of the back of the Hall came Nomad, branding his warrior's sword as he rushed towards the Queen to behead her. "Clever...!" said the Queen, her eyes growing pitch black as her body began to change form. The spectators that were left watched in absolute horror as their Queen quickly morphed into a hideous Goblin. Nomad swung his sword, but missed as the Goblin Queen crouched down like a frog, then leaped straight up to the ceiling. "What manner of creature is she...??!" asked Nomad, looking up as she began to walk the ceiling upside down. "She's a Goblin Queen...!" said the Ogre, falling free from the Queen's spell as he fell to his hand and knees gasping for breath. The Goblin Queen jumped back down to the floor of the Hall, catching Nomad by surprise as she swatted him away like an insect with the back of her hand. Nomad slammed into the wall, bringing down some of the decorations. Before anyone could even react, she leaped to her next destination, kicking Liam back into a crowd of onlookers. The Ogre (nearly just as fast) sprinted towards her, only to be cut down by one of her enchanted spells. "She's unstoppable...!" yelled Nomad, climbing from up under the debris on top of him. The Goblin Queen saw the Maiden Joy trying to help her parents reach the exit, and leaped over towards her. "Joy..., NOOOO...!!" screamed the Ogre as the Goblin Queen landed behind her, grabbing her by the head as she prepared to snap her neck. Liam (whom had been lying on the ground pretending to be unconscious) grabbed the Goblin Queen's ankle, turning her temporarily into a stature. "Now, Nomad...!!" he yelled eagerly, knowing time was of the essence. Nomad knew he wouldn't be able to reach them before the Queen broke free from Liam's spell. He jumped towards the Ogre, holding his sword back away from their bodies. The Ogre grabbed Nomad in midair, then spun him around to gain momentum before letting him go in the Goblin Queen's direction. The Queen had just broken free from Liam's spell as she turned. Her pitch black eyes widened with fear as Nomad rose his trusty sword, then sliced through the Goblin Queen's neck. Her head fell off sideways, purple blood gushing upward from between her shoulders as her body slowly fell off to the side, dying. "Mother...!!!" screamed Prince Vincent, regaining consciousness. Nomad ran his sword through the Queen's torso, splitting her chest in two. Then he reached down and ripped her still beating black heart from her body. The heart continued to pump in his hand, until he squeezed his fist together, crushing it in his mighty grip. Prince Vincent and the Ogre screamed, then fell to the floor simultaneously. The Maiden Joy ran over to the Ogre, kneeling by his side. "Vincent...!" she cried, hovering over him, tears falling from her eyes. "Vincent..., come back to me...!" Nomad, Liam, the Royal Guard, the Maiden Joy's parents, the Clergyman, and several spectators watched sadly as they realized what had happened. At Nomad's feet, the Goblin Queen's carcass began to dissolve and disintegrate into purple slime. A few seconds later the Ogre's body began to do the same. Someone pulled the Maiden away before the body finished deteriorating. She turned and buried her face in the man's chest, sobbing uncontrollably. When the man wrapped his arms about her, something felt strangely familiar as she popped her head up and stared into his face. "Vincent...!!" she glee, staring into the face of her beloved. Prince Vincent bent forward and kissed her, confirming his identity... ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Days later... ...the body of the King was pulled down from its hiding place in the tree house, perfectly preserved in the Palmaletto Leaves. He was given a King's sendoff, with Royals from the neighboring cities coming to pay respects. The next day, Prince Vincent and the Maiden Joy were wed, becoming husband and wife and heirs to the kingdom. Another ceremony quickly followed, where the Royal Court crowned Vincent --King, and Joy their new --Queen. The trumpets rejoice loudly as all cheered in celebration, a celebration which lasted 7 days. King Vincent and his new Queen retired to their honeymoon, making passionate love as if it were their first time. King Vincent started by eating his new bride out, pressing his face between her legs as he licked and sucked on her womanly spot. Queen Joy moaned erotically as she tossed her head from side to side, her plump breasts and erect nipples pointing skyward as she ran her fingers through the King's full black hair. After making her cum several times, he licked his way up her body and inserted his thick 8 inch cock, but could barely feel her walls. "What happened...?" he asked, looking down to see his cock swimming in her largely stretched vagina. "The Ogre happened...!" said the Queen. "...I TOLD you not to fuck me with that monster 15 inch green cock, but you just HAD to have some, didn't you? Now my cunt's all stretched out of shape on my Honeymoon!" cried her Royal Majesty. "Don't cry, sweetheart..., I have an idea...!" said the King, changing positions. "This will have to do until your cunt can repair itself and shrink back to normal...!" said Vincent, getting into 69. Queen Joy took the King's plump cock into her mouth and began sucking, just as King Vincent began licking her clitoris, and fisting her vagina. The Queen humped up on his thrusting hand as it disappeared in her gash. She sucked his thick fat cock until it started to throb and pulse. The first spurts shot directly down her throat, painting her tongue and esophagus. She pulled the spurting cock from her mouth, then jacked the rest of his load across her face. King Vincent Groaned aloud as she quickly took his cock head back into her mouth and cleaned it. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ After being offered the right to stay in Newtonian as their newest residents, Nomad, Liam, and Hoof had to decline, knowing they had a journey to complete of their own. As a token of his everlasting friendship and appreciation, King Vincent and his new bride gave the trio parting gifts. Hoof got a brand new set of weapons, including a state of the art bow and arrow, a new impenetrable shield, a battle axe, and a Centurion Helmet, ranking him as one of the Royal Guards. Liam was given a special purple horse named Violet, and the Queen's Book of Magics which King Vincent had found hidden within some of his step-mother's personal items. And Nomad was given one of the City's most sacred treasures; one of their majestic Unicorns. "The Ogre nearly wiped them out after eating most of them..." explained King Vincent, telling Nomad how special they were. "The Unicorn is said to hold unique powers! Ride them with good spirits, my friends..., you will find they may come in handy during your travels!" "Unique powers, eh...?" asked Nomad, staring at the white Unicorn eagerly. "Thank you, my King...!" offered Nomad, shaking Vincent's hand. "...your generosity goes without saying...!" "Until we meet again, Barbarian...!" smiled Vincent, hugging his new friends. "...if ever you need the aid of me or my Centurions..., all you need is call..., we will hear...!" "Thank you...!" said Nomad, mounting his new steed. With a mighty spike of his heels in the Unicorn's ribs, the trio sped off into the great unknown, leaving the people of Newtonian to celebrate the new Royals. Written by NPhillydogg@aol.com
