Queer Fantasy starring an Egg
I donโt know how I got this idea but I doubt itโs something I dreamt up. Maybe I think about May Marigold a bit too much.
It hit me this morning.
One of those โchosen oneโ tropes.
See, thereโs this kingdom thatโs really big on prophecies. One day, they got one that says their realm is doomed unless some girl born sometime somewhere rises up and saves them from the big evil. Frantic, the palace rounds up every girl that fits the conditions and starts training them like crazy.
Years passed, and the blind wizard responsible for the prophecy thinks that the day has come to dump his burden on their potential savior. Basically, every girl stands a chance, because prophecies are vague. Thatโs how they work. But the wizard says they have to pick a leader. So, by the power vested in him, he mutters an incantation, and the magical swirly thing examines each girl in the room, but in the end it runs out into the stables and knocks a servant girl unconscious.
It turns out the servant girl doesnโt know sheโs a girl. Her egg cracked too fast for her to put two and two together. But the kingdomโs fate canโt wait, and sheโs way behind on lessons.
Can a klutz save the world? What dramas await the chosen heroes?
Oh wow, this sounds like a good YA. ๐
