Eightwoon Kingdom: The Rightful Heir

This is it.

This is the day where the Eightwoon's are waiting for. The coronation day, the choosing of the rightful heir of the throne.

Who is it?

---

All are gathered in the cathedral, the Eightwoon's, the Eightwan's and even the Visitland's are there. All celebrating for the rightful heir has come. No one else knew about this heir but only the Queen herself, not even the heir knows about he/she is going to be the rightful heir.

All are busy doing their duties, today is a special day. It is time, that they will face the real world, with no one to guide them but themselves only. Can they go forth and reach their dreams?

3, 2, 1.

The sound of trumpets are heard, all rose up to their seats upon the entrance of the Queen. Queen Nitalione, her last day, her last reign. She went up at the front and smiled at everyone.

"I will make my last speech" the Queen announced. "Well, after all those years, I'm finally here, choosing the rightful heir for the throne, to make Eightwoon better and to handle it truthfully. I put my trust on this heir, please, don't let me down." The Queen said,

"I will leave Eightwoon, and be on my way, relaxing and enjoying my last days until my death. I will cherish every moment here in Eightwoon. I also hope that when I come and visit, it will be the same Eightwoon or much, improved." The Queen added,

"Also, remember this; Eightwoon may falter but we will never fall, this kingdom knows no end! Long live, Eightwoon! Godspeed to all" and the Queen closed her speech.

"May I call on, the rightful heir of Eightwoon Kingdom..."

It was suspense. Everyone was anticipating this moment, who will be the heir? Their world suddenly slowed down, some are nervous and some are excited, but suddenly, some group of people came in the cathedral, exactly when the Queen called the heir,

"Gavrielous"

GAVRIELOUS

Halaaaa. Sino kaya? Sino kaya?

Halos kainin ko na yung mga daliri ko sa kaba sa kung sinuman ang magiging tagapagma--- "Gavrielous"

The what? ANO?! Ako?!

Bakit ako?!

Napatayo na lang ako bigla habang tumutunog ang mga trumpeta, hala ako?!

Hindi ko expect ito. Palakad na ako sa harap at nakangiti si Queen Nitalione sa akin, heck, akala ko si Jezelsone talaga eh. Napatingin ako sa harap at nakita ang mga mukha nila.

Gulat yung iba, masaya rin yung iba, pero majority yung gulat. Mismo nga ako nagulat din eh. Pero isa itong napakalaking responsibilidad. Hindi na ito one week reigning, panghabang buhay na ito hanggang sa makahanap ako ng mga tagapagmana.

Kakayanin ko ito.

"I hereby declare, King Gavrielous of Eightwoon Kingdom! The rightful heir of the throne!" sabi ng Reyna at linagay ang korona sa aking ulo. Nagsitayuan silang lahat at pinalakpakan ako.

Ang gwapo ko talaga.

Moving on, may naaninag ako na mga tao sa bandang pintuan ng cathedral, nako, kailangan ko pa mag-english. Ito lang yung ayaw ko, nako.

"Who is there?" tanong ko at tumuro sa likod, halos lahat naman lumingon, naaninag ko isang maliit na babae at isang matangkad na lalaki. "Welcome to Eightwoon, how can we help you?" tanong ko sa kanila nang makalapit ako.

"I know her" biglang sabat ni King Robertius at lumapit na rin, "Queen Noreenilie?" biglang sagot ni King Robertius at tumango yung babae, hala, reyna pala ito?

Then this must be a King! Oh my.

"I present you, King Gavrielous, the mighty Queen of Naynwan Kingdom, Queen Noreenilie" pagiintroduce sa akin, "and this is the King of Nayntwoon Kingdom, King Arnulfione" pagintroduce naman ni Queen Noreenilie sa kasama niya.

"Welcome, how can we help you?" tanong ko sa kanila, "We need help, we are being ambushed by some foreigners" the Queen pleaded me, hahanapin ko sana si Queen Nitalione kaso bigla kong naalala.

Heck, Hari na pala ako.

Ako ang gagawa ng mga desisyon rito, nako. "We need reinforcements, we need help, we'll pay anything that we can" sabi ni King Arnulfione. "We'll help" sagot ko.

So this is a start. Ang aga naman, pakikipaglaban nanaman ang gagawin namin. Hinati ko na lang yung mga heirs pati dun sa Eightwan, hinati na lang ni King Robertius at by pairs silang ipinadala sa Naynwan at Nayntwoon.

Aalis na rin sana ako kaso my tumapik sa likuran ko, pagkalingon ko nakangiting namamaalam ang naibigay ni Queen Nitalione. "My Queen, I thank you so much for giving me this opportunity, I will do my best to make Eightwoon better" ngiti ko, "I have always believed in you, Gavrielous, now that you are King, show to others what I believed in you, don't let me down, King Gav, don't you dare" sabi niya.

"I won't let you down" ngiti ko at kumaripas na ng takbo palabas, ito ang tunay na laban. Wala sa loob ng palasyo, kundi sa labas, nakikipagtulungan sa ibang mga kaharian, we want peace and order at gagawin naming ang lahat, makamit lamang ito.

"FIGHT!" sigaw ko at lumaban na kami.

This is the story of Eightwoon. We may not know what happened at the end, but we know that they stick together and work as a real kingdom, the kingdom that knows no end. That is Eightwoon, and forever it will live.

Long live, Eightwoon!
