On the endless plains, countless large and small boulders either lie scattered or are pieced together into island-like shapes, lifted by gentle updrafts, slowly rotating, forming a patchwork of aerial terraces.
The air is filled with small, glowing plankton, resembling jellyfish and butterflies, swarming together to chase and feed on the air currents.
The roots of the bellflowers spread out in the wind, their soft leaves colliding yet making a crisp bell-like sound, creating an ethereal melody that flows with the wind.
Cloud whales, formed from fog and wind, swim through the skies, occasionally emitting a low hum akin to a deep horn....
This is the Wind Plain, located north of the Life Court. It is said that all the miraculous splendor here was created by an uncontrolled spell experiment of an ancient wizard, but beneath the seemingly tranquil and beautiful wonders lies a perilous storm. When the energy tides of the Wind Plain are stirred, no wizard dares to set foot here. Orıginal content can be found at 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡⁂𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢⁂𝘯𝘦𝘵
At this moment, on a massive floating island pieced together by spells, a group of wizards stands silently, their gazes mostly directed toward the same direction, as if awaiting something.
The majority of them are clad in white wizard robes, with a striking emblem on their chests resembling two intertwined tender leaves. Each emits a strong, pure life aura.
Selena stands quietly on the back of a four-legged flying dragon.
She is dressed in an exceptionally luxurious court attire, her golden locks cascading to her waist, her whole appearance meticulously groomed, highlighting her milky alabaster skin that glows with a radiant sheen. Her noble and dignified aura is akin to that of a legendary goddess, radiating a halo that forbids direct gaze.
Selena keeps her eyes fixed on the distant horizon, her beautiful lake-green eyes holding a hint of distraction, as if contemplating something.
A figure silently lands beside her, drawing the attention of many Life Court wizards below, but upon discerning the figure’s appearance, those wary gazes naturally withdraw.
This is the only wizard present not dressed in Life Court attire.
He wears a black robe, his pale face reminiscent of a cold moon, with a straight nose and sharply defined features, his lips often pressed into a straight line.
He is very young, his pupils exhibiting a rare, fiery color scattered within ashes, a colorful ring symbol embroidered on his chest, his figure slender, with dark magic runes revealed on the back of his hand.
The young wizard stands alongside Selena, squinting his eyes towards the same direction.
The four-legged flying dragon beneath them emits a dissatisfied and restless murmur, but quiets immediately under the young wizard’s calm gaze.
Selena seems not to mind the young wizard’s almost presumptuous behavior, her gaze landing on him, instead softening slightly.
"What is Princess thinking about?"
The young wizard speaks softly.
A trace of confusion flickers in Selena’s eyes, then she smiles wryly and says, "I don’t even know what I’m thinking..."
She gently lifts the hem of her skirt, stepping forward slowly, and softly says: "
My other brothers have sought to visit the Destiny Pendulum countless times, but I never went even once.
That venerable sage, the prophet... ultimately chose me.
You know, Fuming Ge, even now, I can’t believe this is all really happening...."
