The verdict

I had my tutorial with Jo today and she loved my idea! I'm so happy because it means I can do something that I really feel passionate about. Here's the first few pages...

Once upon a time there was the Kingdom of Adtovia. It was a beautiful place full of creativity and invention.People travelled for miles to seek refuge within it’s walls as it was one of only a few sources of light in a World of darkness and evil. It was ruled by the King and his

beautiful Queen. On the night of the crescent moon the Queen had a baby. A girl, who they called Princess Amelia.

The people of Adtovia were overjoyed, however far away in the shadows the dark creatures were plotting. They had heard a prophecy that said a child would be born under the crescent moon and bring new light to their World of dark.

In the dead of night they crept over the walls of Adtovia and stole the sleeping princess.

They brought her back to shadows and

enslaved her in a tower guarded by a monstrous three- headed dragon. Forced to work during the night and hidden away by day, she was never to see the light of sun.

And so the Princess grew up not knowing who she really was. She had only one friend, a fairy called Elvina, who would tell her all about the beautiful world outside her prison. In the tower in which she lived there was only one crack of light.

“One day” she said as she touched the crack in the wall “I’ll see the World for myself”
