Twelve Years Before the 100 Land

The cries of a newborn filled the room.

"Ai strisis." (My little sister) I said to my mother.

"Sha, em bilaik yu sis." (Yes, she is your sister.) My mother said weakly.

"Nomon, chit bilaik em tag in?" (Mother, what is her name?) I asked curiously.

"Step of, yu haiplana don tel osir op gon kamp raun hir." (Move aside, your queen has told us to come here. *Translation/words may be wrong*) A strange voice said.

"Beja, ai yongon bilaik fou yeron, no teik em op!" (Please, my child is only 4 don't take him away!" *Translation/words may be wrong*) My father begged.

"Check the children for night blood." A second voice said in a strange language I've never heard before. Then 2 Azgeda men walked into our room and pulled out their blades. My mother begged them to stop as they pricked my finger. I resisted or at least tried to. He grabbed me and held on tightly. Red blood oozed out. He then let go.

It was a different story for my sister. I saw black start dripping onto the floor as she screamed her tears.

"Natblinda, teik dishon." (Nightblood, take this one) The other man said.

My mom was too tired at this point that she couldn't resist. My father, a stubborn man, wasn't going to let them leave without a fight. He pulled out his sword and attacked one of the guards outside the door. I heard a body dropped and I immediately ran to my mother.

Then my father ran in trying to attack the men inside. Even while holding a baby, they were able to overpower my father. A blade went straight into my father.

"NONTU!" (FATHER!) I screamed.

"Ste... y-yuj." (Be s-strong.) My father said weakly as they kicked his corpse down.

"Teik emo, frag em op." (Take them, kill her.) Commanded the man who killed my father. The one holding my sister took me by the hand and made me hold her as the second man dragged out my father's body. Then the first man dragged my mother outside.

"Yu gonplei ste odon, Natrona." (Your fight is over, traitor.) Then I heard the blade squish into my mother. "Let's go." Said the second man. They put us in a cart and took us to the palace.

Our village wasn't very far from the castle, my father would always take me after he returned hunting.

Once we arrived we went to a room inside the castle. The man pointed at my sister as he spoke to the other man, "Gon fleimkepa-de." (For the flame keeper.) The man nodded and took her. A third man walked in. The first man kneeled to him. "Gyon op, Talis." (Get up, Talis.) Said the man. "Gon ai haiplana." (For my queen.) The first man said pointing at me. "Chit bilaik yu tag in?" (What is your name? *Translation/words may be wrong*) The other man said to me. "Aksel kom Azgeda." (Axel from the Ice nation) I told him. "Aksel, hm." He replied. "Yumi na bants, leida Talis." (We will leave, bye Talis.)

He took me to a bigger room. There I saw a woman sitting on a tall seat. Next, to her, I saw 3 boys and a girl. They all were different ages. The man had me sit down as he spoke with the queen.
