I am Zeddik a monster banished to roam the world endlessly. I didn't start out as a Monster, Yeah! That's right, I wasn't always an ugly looking Monster.
Let me take you to the very beginning.
Many many years ago, I was a handsome Prince of Crystal kingdom. I was loved by the people. Fathers wanted their sons to be like me. Mother's wanted their daughters to marry me. I was a role model to all the kids. I was highly respected, this was because I lived a decent life, I was hardworking and very loyal to the king and also I was very generous to the people.
My life was a bed or roses. Being a Prince comes with so many benefits. I got whatever I wanted, had the finest horses. I didn't have to do chores or manual labor because there were servants for all that.
Once a year, the Crystal kingdom usually hosts an event where Royalties from different kingdoms are invited to come and celebrate and merry together. Each kingdom usually comes with a unique type of entertainment. This year was no different, Crystal kingdom was booming with music and celebrations as they welcomed their guests.
Each Kingdom displayed what they had in stock, some of them presented comedy, some presented unique dance steps, some presented short drama. The next day each kingdom bid farewell and commenced on their journey back home. There was a King who arrived when all the others have left. He apologized for being late.
"Great king of Crystal Kingdom, I'm very sorry for arriving late. My wife knowing that our kingdom is very far from yours still had the guts to spend the whole day doing Make ups and beautifying herself. Looking at her now, she looks totally the same to me."
"Oh C'mon your wife looks really pretty. You are most welcome King Fortin."
"I hope I'll still be allowed to present what I prepared for you because this young vocalist would have my head if I don't let her sing before the mighty king."
"Of course, I'd be delighted to see what the young lad can do."
They all went into the king's palace, got seated and listened to the girl sing. As she sang, her voice penetrated through out the entire kingdom. They had no idea that King Fortin had an ulterior motive. The girl had a sort of magic, everybody who heard her voice was enchanted and put under a spell. A spell that made them become slaves to King Fortin.
Fortunately for me I wasn't in the kingdom when all these was happening. I escorted a friend of mine from one of the kingdoms. On my return I noticed that something was totally off. People were carrying all their treasures towards the Palace. I ran to the Palace and I was shocked to see King Fortin sitting on my Father's throne and my father sat at his foot.
"What have you done!!"
I screamed as I drew my sword and ran towards King Fortin. Just then, the young girl started singing again and this time instead of turning me into a slave like everybody else, it turned me into a red ugly Monster with four hands.
"hahahahah"
King Fortin laughed out loud in an evil tone.
"Now get out of here. No one will ever accept you in their home Therefore you shall roam the world endlessly."
