Starest
Magic Eight Ball
I'm looking for a partner to play with in a High Fantasy Adventure!
In Naverday, a mysterious visitor has gained the King's attention. The visitor came bearing gifts. For the King himself, a golden idol of one of the gods above. For the beautiful queen a dress made of the finest silk in all the land. And for the darling princess, a ring from the far off eastern lands of Alacarin.
All the smaller gifts like the wine and food were all checked for every known poison. The major gifts too were examined for any curses or spells. However, due to the nature of the curse upon the ring, it went completely unnoticed. But the princess soon discovers the sinister nature of the ring that night when she is unable to remove it from her finger.
Now a dangerous curse upon the princess has caused her to flee the Capital city in search of help with only you to accompany her.
The curse in reference causes the cursed to slowly grow in size. Simple, right?
So I had this idea after watching a mix of low budget fantasy movies, shows, and reading a handful of books. It's very simple, but that's the point! Simple stories have the most potential for adjustments and adaptations. There's so much room for action, comedy, mystery, and romance all in one place! Sound pulpy? That's because it is.
This story fits in the darker mold of the political intrigue or the more light-hearted mold of adventure. Or any genre really, I'm happy to hear your suggestions if you have any. Otherwise, it will be fairly light-hearted.
Now I'm looking for someone to play the Princess's companion on her journey in search of help. Are you my most trusted adviser, utterly loyal to my family and I? Maybe you're my childhood friend, not the most skilled diplomat but just as caring? Or maybe you're a Han Solo-esque scoundrel hired by the king to escort me until help is found? It's totally up to you!
Let me know what you think or if you've got any ideas in mind.
Thanks for reading!
