- Powerful magic user ( gifted from an early age )
- Kind of raised to know she's going to be super strong and super important to the future of her kingdom
- Saves a "king" at the age of 14 ( not sure i want king per say but like ruler of some sort.)
- He takes her under his wing bc she's like really powerful and also everyone loves her, very good girl, people are fond of her. maybe her parents are like high people in the court and it's totally fine for the ruler to take an interest in her u know? very uhhh like people dote on her and encourage her and want her to be strong and powerful like she gets all the benefits of books and teachings and stuff.
- tentative idea that there's going to be a "purity" thing there like she's supposed to focus on her power and nothing else.
- kind of want the king to have not so great intentions maybe. like as she grows up and gets pretty he's like ah yes my powerful magic user i will keep her for my own and she can squash all my enemies and bear me beautiful children but she has no idea of this part she thinks it's more nice mentor
- then there could be a concentrated effort to isolate her maybe? she gets so busy with her education, with getting stronger.
- childhood bff > lover? maybe.
- or it's just a nice girl in the ~ palace ~ and it's the first time anyone's paid attention to her outside of her powers ( beyond creepy king IS THAT TOO MUCH IDK I LIKE THE VIBES OF IT and it would be interesting later )
- parents ... die. or uhhh maybe the parents died earlier on but she's kept in the court bc she's powerful and there's a ~ mystery ~ about them. maybe her parents die the same time she saves the king who knows that can be later's concern
- she's sweet and kind and maybe a little cocky like she wants to protect people and everyone deserves her attention but she's also like YEAH I'M GONNA BE THE BEST vibes??
- anyway so the secret friendship/romance continues. maybe she's isolated but the love interest is like ... they bring her stuff. fetch her things. work in the library. WORK IN THE LIBRARY.
- and eventually the king hears word of it???
- and has to act. starts announcing their engagement and shit. powerful marriage alliance. and she's like ?? bc she owes him a lot maybe? conflicted.
- but she eventually decides she's going to run away with the girl
- only at the engagement party she gets trapped in something and then the king announces there's been a ... fuck what's the word. spy or mutiny or betrayal or something.
- and he brings out a bunch of people to kill. they're hooded. and he tells her to silence them w magic. it's a big noisy affair so she misses things.
- maybe he wants her to kill them but she's trying to get out and get to the girl.
- would it be weird if they're all hooded and idk there's an execution and she's not paying attention until she notices one of the corpses is wearing a bracelet THE BRACELET SHE GAVE HER LOVER MAYBE
- and then she realises she's dead.
- and then she has a full breakdown and it's like looming power, rolling waves of it. she tries to stab herself with the king's dagger but it doesn't work. and then she just flips. and the next thing anyone knows is where the castle once stood is a barren wasteland. and there's a monster living in it
- BUT SOMETHING HAPPENS when she loses it.
- anyway the king naturally gets away
- ANYWAY I WANT A 'POWER OF INTENT' KIND OF VIBE. she's pretty bc she's loved, then she's monstrous bc people are scared of her but i haven't worked those deets out yet.
ANYWAY i am also making a seer ... potentially in this same universe don't @ me. but the seer is a twink i'm very sorry. and the seer can only ever see other people's futures. but never anything to do with himself. also he has amnesia. possibly another victim of the king who knows. and at some point he gives og girl a message like love will change u and later she thinks about it when she's monster formed but really it's bc she'll find the girl again in another life and get back to herself. maybe he gets taken along by the king after.
