When betrayal, identity, and destiny collide, a misunderstood fire prince must choose between hatred and the only love that ever raised him. A powerful fantasy about acceptance, redemption, and unconditional motherhood that will stay with you long after the final line.

Introduction

The forest had never known silence—until the night magic stole two unborn souls and left a goddess empty-armed beneath her sacred tree…

Some stories begin with birth.
This one begins with the theft of destiny.

Long before flames learned to forgive and water learned to doubt, a witch whispered forbidden words into the dark—and the Forest Goddess, Flora, would spend eternity proving that a mother’s love is stronger than fate itself.

Setting Description

The Emerald Forest shimmered with whispering leaves, glowing roots, and rivers that sang beneath moonlight. Warm mist clung to ancient bark. Fireflies pulsed like living stars. Beneath the great Divine Tree, destiny itself was believed to breathe.

The Story – Motherly Love of the Forest Goddess

“Abracadabra… Abracadabra…”

The witch Razak whispered into the wind, her black cloak shuddering as she exhaled forbidden breath into two glowing eggs—one crimson as molten fire, the other jade-green as flowing springs.

The forest trembled.

From the roots of the Divine Tree, Flora, Goddess of the Forest, felt it.

“My child…” she whispered.

When she reached the clearing, the eggs were already gone.

Days later, beneath cascading vines, two eggs fell into her trembling hands. She held the green one first.

Crack.

A burst of mist—and a laughing infant formed of living water blinked up at her.

Flora gasped. “Onine… my little river.”

Then she lifted the red egg.

Crack.

Flame curled into the shape of a crying boy, heat rippling from his skin.

“Fire…” Flora whispered in fear, then gathered him into her arms anyway. “You will be called Palamon.”

Childhood of Fire & Flow

“Watch, brother!” Onine giggled, pressing her palms to the soil.

Water shimmered from her hands. Wilted leaves lifted. Flowers bloomed.

Palamon beamed. “My turn!”

He touched a twig.

WHOOSH.

Flames roared.

Onine cried. “Stop! You’ll burn the forest!”

Palamon drew back, eyes burning hotter than his fire. “I only wanted to help…”

Flora knelt, touching his heated cheek without fear.
“Power is not evil, my son. Only how we use it decides who we become.”

The Day the Forest Rejected Him

At the Coming of Age Ceremony, children gathered before the Divine Tree.

Onine stepped forward. Light embraced her.

Cheers echoed.

Then Palamon approached.

Whispers sliced the air.

“He’s dangerous.”
“He’ll burn us all.”
“He doesn’t belong.”

The tree remained silent.

That night, Palamon whispered to Flora, voice shaking.
“Mother… am I truly yours?”

She closed her eyes. “You were not born of my body… but you were born of my heart.”

His world shattered.

The Witch’s False Embrace

Razak found him in the shadows.

“You are not the monster they claim,” she purred. “Come where your fire is welcomed.”

For the first time, Palamon was praised, not feared.

But when he led his sister to meet his “friends,” the forest turned into a battlefield.

Spirits screamed. Creatures attacked.

Onine shouted, “You betrayed us!”

“I didn’t know!” Palamon cried as fire raged uncontrollably.

Believing him lost, Flora wept beneath the Divine Tree.

The Truth Revealed

That night, the Forest Spirit pulled Palamon into a dream.

He saw it all—Razak’s spell, the stolen souls, Flora’s grief, her hands trembling as she raised two чужzn children as her own.

He collapsed to his knees.

“I was never abandoned,” he breathed. “I was chosen.”

Redemption of the Fire Prince

Razak dragged Onine toward her dark altar.

“Your power will feed me forever,” she laughed.

Flames erupted behind her.

“Let her go,” Palamon said, standing tall.

For the first time, his fire did not destroy—
it protected.

Together, fire created light.
Water gave it life.

Razak fell into her own shadows.

Onine rushed into Palamon’s arms.
“I never hated you… I feared losing you.”

Flora wrapped them both in vines of living green.

“My children,” she whispered. “You were always enough.”
