Chapter 2: 1
She opened her eyes with a gasp escaping her lips. Touching her throat as she get up on her bed looking around. She once again was in her room in Kroudel's mansion. Still in her nightgown she get up from her bed. It was middle of the night. She lit a candle that was near her bed and she came closer to a big mirror in her chambers.
She looked at her blond locks and piercing golden eyes. She touched one of her cheeks and she pinchet it a bit. It hurted. The person in the mirror, it was really her... Ellaise Kroudel... She was alive. Somehow she was alive, still in the mansion... She still couldn't believe it at all. One moment ago she was being executed and now...
Maybe it was just a dream, a terrible nightmare but it felt too real... And dreams come from people thoughts and she would never in her whole life would thought that... that...
She shook her head aggresively, lightly slapped herself in the cheek. 'Get it toghether Ellaise! this isn't a dream. This is reality, damn reality. You have died, they finally killed you and... and Veran... is a damn traitor! Listen now! You have to live, you have to survive no matter what and get revenge on those bastards.' She made up her mind, anger waking up in her heart. 'Better fury than grief' she thought. She had to act if she wanted to survive, there was no time for tears, no time to mourn her own death. If she really wanted to live Ellaise had to act quickly and wisely but first...
She grabbed the candle and walked towards her desk in her study. Allaise opened the drawer and took a pen, and sheets of paper. She didn't knew yet what the exact day it was but she started writting every detail she remebered, every event that led to her end. Every person that might have taken a part in this. But she didn't written it in Common or Finterian the official language of Finteria Kingdom, but in Kervesian. Veran teached her that. She remembered the long nights that he was teaching her this complicated script. Their own "code" so no one could spy on theirs messages that they left to eachother. She grittted her teath. Ellaise almost broke the pen. It was the safest way to write this that she knew but...
But he still could read this. The last person that she would wanted to read this.
She knew what will happen if she would act exactly as she did in the past, but even that, that she woke up in the middle of the night could activate the butterfly effect without even mentioning that she wanted to change the outcome. Maybe some bigger events like Fiona's apearance in the mansion and rebellion will happen the same way but smaller ones? Day to day life? It will be a total enigma if she changes even one single thing and she had no idea if it would be positive or negative change.
She didn't want to depart from this world even earlier that she already did. She wrote everything down and hid in the drawer she finally felt how tired she was.
"Sigh" Ellaise looked throught the window. She should at least try to get some sleep before morning. She blowed up the candle and slowly she get back to bed. She tucked herself in soft sheets. Ellaise closed her eyes hoping for even one moment of sleep.

"Aghhh!" Ellaise get up immediately after she heard the maid's scream. She breath heavily and touched her chest. Her heart was beating rapidly. After a second Ellaise heard a knock and a frighten, pale maid come inside. Her hands were shaking as she brought her tray with breakfast. The tea was almost completely spilled.
"I'm sorry, my Lady" she said as her hands were still shaking. "I will bring my Lady, another one... but could my Lady tell her... "guard" to move back to knight's wing?" Enora looked back at the door that she came throught.
Ellaise blinked a couple of times. She couldn't remember anything similar to this situation. everything started to change already. So soon, too soon. She looked again at the pale maid and she got up.
Ellaise knew what she would see right behind the door and she would rather stay in bed. She didn't wanted to look at him so soon, but she had to. She couldn't let anyone notice especialy him that she lost the trust in him and started to be afraid of him.
When she opened the door jus as she thought she saw a gigantic wolfish creature laying agaist the wall, near the entrance to her chambers. Big black head moved up and big beastly eyes looked at her gold ones.
'What are you doing here you dirty traitor?' she thought as she gulped affraid of the beast before her. Maybe the first time in her entire life.
