When she got attacked and the magic shot to the sky, it did a whole lot more, the whole realm felt it.
Outside a small house at the outskirt of a small village, Astrid's aunt takes care of her garden and suddenly felt the a strong force and a powerful magic shot up into the sky.
"What was that? It came from deep in the forest... Astrid". As she said the last word, seeming to realize something was wrong, she ran at top speed into the forest.
She hoped this day would never have to come, she thought she shielded her from herself. As she ran with all her strength, she met some birds flying straight at her and slowed down.
They kept on chirping, seeming to explain something to her, but she couldn't understand them, then she caught sight of one as it flew close to her face and flapped its wings so hard. She recognized that bird, Astrid blue bird, she even named it Sebastian.
She looked at the bird and said, "take me to her". The birds seemed to understand her and they flew in the direction they came and she ran after them. "Hold on Astrid, I'm on my way".

In a palace, the doors to the throne room flung open and the an elderly man who sat on a throne simply raised his head to look at whom barged in.
"Your majesty, she has appeared".
The two elves who entered the throne room half knelt while bowing down and spoke to the elven king.
"Queen Isadora is still alive, that magic, there is no doubt its her's" the second elf said.
"Rise" was all the king said and they did.
"Father, we must act, we must take revenge for brother" the elven prince spoke from the side.
"Your highness" they quickly bow, "we didn't realize you were here".
"Its okay. Father, if the Fairy Queen is still out there, then there is a chance to find the Lost kingdom... "
He was cut short by a wave of his father's hand.
"Location?" he asked. The Elven king wasn't a person of many words.
"The magic came from a forest in the human kingdom your majesty" the first elf informed the king.
"Send troops".
"But your majesty, we would be invading the human kingdom. The human king should be aware by now and having his aids scout for her" the second elf counselled.
"They should watch from afar and hide themselves. Send a few elves to watch out in the forest and stay hidden. Do not confront the human soldiers, our business is with the Half breed fairy queen. Let's see who gets her first".
"Yes your majesty".
"Right away".
And they let the throne room after bowing to them.

In the human kingdom, at the castle, guards are seen running up and down...
The throne room, door opens after which the king enters, following behind him was his trusted adviser.
"Leave everyone" the king shouted and all the ministers and servants there hurries away and locked the doors behind them.
"Your majesty, finally".
"Yes, after eighteen long years, she shows up".
"Fate is in your hands your majesty" the adviser praised the king.
"Gerald, after eighteen years of searching, she shows up in my territory. This time I would have her and not let her escape. If I killed the half breed fairy, i'll be the strongest human king ever. My name would reign for generations to come".
"Yes your majesty, but not before she tell us where her child is. If you have the hybrid princess in your grasp and under your control, no race would be able to stand against you".
"Yes, yes, very clever Gerald".
"I live only to serve you your grace" he said sweet mouthing the king.
"Have the troops sent there immediately, and capture her, they should search the whole forest, cut it down if need be and find her at all cost".
"As you wish your majesty" Gerald said and left the throne room to carry out the king's orders.

Far away, and deep at sea, stood the magnificent kingdom of the merfolks.
In one of the rooms in the palace of the mer queen...
"Your highness, that rumble, that magic. There is no doubt..."
'Yes, it is her's. What has happened?".
"I do not know princess".
"Hurry, let us meet with the queen".
They rushed out of the room, swimming fast to meet the queen in the throne room.
"Mother".
"Your majesty" the princess's maid bowed to greet her.
"What happened mother? That magic... ".
"No doubt about it. She shouldn't have broken out. There's no escape from the impenetrable prison". The queen said to her daughter.
"Unless... " she was cut short by her daughter.
"Let's hurry and check mother. If it happens, then Alacia would be in peril".
"You're right, but..." She thinks for a moment, "Never mind, summon the guards, let's hurry".
They all rushed out of the throne room.
