Dungeon.

She was shocked to the core by this revelation. She tried to explain to them that she had been in her room the whole night but another shocking thing was revealed to her.The murder weapon had been found in her room and all leads pointed to her. She tried to explain to them that she was innocent but nobody gave her a listening ear,she had clearly been framed. She tried to wonder who would have done this and the only person who came to her mind was Princess Alyssa,she was doomed. She had not really meant to challenge her,she only wanted to see the king. Mel became very bitter and now she felt even more alone,no one would defend her now. She cried herself to sleep that night, praying that something will save her. In her sleep,Florah appeared to her,and next to her was her mother. Mel's tears began flowing uncontrollably and her mom tried every way to soothe her daughters pain. She had been watching her from up above and it hurt her that she could do nothing to help her child.

"Mom....mom please take me with you, I can't take this pain anymore mother. Why do they all treat me like this,what did I do to deserve all this?Mom.....please take me....take me please...p..l..."said Mel crying out her pain.

"My dear child, I am with you, I have always been with you dear. Whatever goes wrong in your life,just hold on... because sooner or later, you'll become something more.... something more than just a maid...so don't give up...I love you" and slowly she began to fade away. Mel called out to her mother but Florah had held her so tightly until her mother disappeared into nothing. When Mel opened her eyes,she noticed how dark the dungeon now was. She did not sleep even a wink from that time,she had to look for ways to save herself because no one was coming for her. Her mother's words lingered in her mind and that's where she was drawing her willpower from,her pillar of hope. Since Mel was alone,she tried to try her concealment technique but it wasn't working. She tried all the other magics she had learnt but still it was not working...what was happening? She tried again and again till she passed out.... something had happened. When she woke up the next day,she was really hungry. She tried to call out to anyone to give her food but there was no response,there she steeled herself and began her training. The dungeon was so dark,so she first started off by lighting it with her icy blue fire. It shone so bright that it covered half of the dungeon if not all. She noticed how huge this dungeon was,even her light could not light the whole place.
