Floral Blades/DiariesTHIS IS GOING THROUGH MAJOR RENOVATION

Floral BladesFloral Blades takes place before Floral Diaries.Summarized Storyline minus some backstories and a lot of lore:
Azalea is the guard of Prince Rowan from the kingdom of Mokaria. They had known each other since they were kids and Azalea later realized she had hidden feelings for him. Their kingdom was invaded and Prince Rowan went missing. Azalea left to the woods in search for Prince Rowan and stumbled upon Princess Jamesia and her guard, Aspen, from their enemy kingdom, Lunaria. The kingdom of Lunaria was also invaded. The three decide to team up and leave to find help and this is where the journey starts. Azalea finds out that Prince Rowan and Princess Jamesia were secretly meeting up behind Azalea and Aspen’s back and had fallen in love. Azalea struggles to move on with her feelings and thoughts of how things might have been different if she had told Prince Rowan earlier. As the three bond together, Aspen grows feelings for Azalea.The three later stumble upon a small village, Rivale, where they meet Ivy and Aviden. The two join their group and help them out. There is a lot of unsolved mystery with Ivy and Aviden that doesn’t get solved in Floral Blades. The group eventually arrive at the base of the people who invaded the two kingdoms and save Prince Rowan.The story ends with both kingdoms being restored and chasing out the invaders. Azalea has moved on and begins a relationship with Aspen and Prince Rowan and Princess Jamesia get engaged with brings peace between both kingdoms. Ivy and Aviden part ways with the royals and leave back to their village which leads to the beginning of Floral Diaries.I did not include all of the current lore because I have gotten bored of writing Floral Blades and I don’t care about spoilers (because I'm not changing the lore right now). The lore is written on my google docs but I don't have any motivation to write on Rowan, Jamesia, and Aspen's character arcs.Relevant Floral Blades Characters:
- Azalea (protagonist)
- Aspen
- Rowan
- Jamesia
- Ivy & Aviden (side characters in Floral Blades, Protagonists in Floral Diaries)Floral Blades is under hiatus and I have no interest in writing about Azalea, Aster, Jamesia, and Rowan. I am however going to continue writing about Ivy and Aviden who make an appearance in both Floral Blades and Floral Diaries.

Azalea is a very reserved protective person who serves as Prince Dimitri’s guard. Under her focused and stoic self lies someone who is awkward and disorganized.Azalea grew up as a thief in the town which bothered her grandmother a lot. On one occasion, she found herself messing with a group of bandits and was about to be killed. Prince Dimitri and his mentor stepped in and saved her. It gave way to him and Azalea becoming good friends. As a way of trying to change Azalea’s thievery ways, Dimitri’s mentor offered her the opportunity to train as a guard. Years later, Azalea became Dimitri’s personal bodyguard as a way of returning the favour he once showed her. It also took years for her to realize her feelings for him, but it was too late. She had already been helping him meet up with Jamesia prior to the invasion.Design notes:
pink symbolizes her loyalty to Orchadia, childhood scar on backNOTE:
Azalea was the first character I made in Floral Blades/Diaries. I like her design but as a character I lost interest in writing/drawing her. maybe i will re-write her.

Prince Rowan was kidnapped by some bandits in the forest. He was thrown in the back of a carriage and found Princess Jamesia of the Lunaria kingdom, Orchadia’s enemy. The two were the same age so they got along quickly. Eventually, the two kingdom’s went out to search for them and found them in a cave and arrested all the bandits. Ever since then, Rowan and Jamesia had secret meetings together. When they turned 19, they decided to start dating in secret with Azalea’s help.Just before Rowan had his coronation at the age of 21, Rowan was knocked out and kidnapped by his uncle. He felt very hurt and betrayed since he put more trust in his uncle than his parents.
