Chapter 1: 1: Crown Princess

"Xiaodan! Xiaodan! Wait up!"

Mo Xiaodan魔小丹 - given name meaning Little Dawn turned back to look at her friend. "Qin Xiu秦秀 - given name meaning Elegant, come on!"

The two girls dashed around Wuye Palace午夜宫 - name meaning Midnight. When they stopped at a balcony, Mo Xiaodan sighed.

"Xiu Xiu, isn't it beautiful?"

The red moon was beginning to set over the Demon Realm. Nighttime was approaching and demons started heading inside for supper.

Qin Xiu agreed, "It is. I always love our sunsets."

"I wonder what sunsets look like in the Mortal Realm and the Heaven Realm. Do you think things are different there?" Mo Xiaodan pondered.

"Xiaodan, don't think about that. Demons can't enter the Heaven Realm without invitation... and we're strictly reminded to not go off to the Mortal Realm unaccounted for."

"But do you think their sunsets are prettier than ours?"

Qin Xiu sighed and shook her head. "I don't know. I think ours is good enough for me."

"Yes, but don't you remember what was taught in class? Apparently, the Heaven Realm's celestial white sun never sets. And the Mortal Realm's sun is a bright, shining gold color, whereas ours is a fiery red. Xiu Xiu, don't you think it's weird how the different realms can have different suns?"

"Perhaps. But I'm not so curious like you, Xiaodan."

"Xiu Xiu is right," a third voice chimed in.

The two girls turned around and bowed.

"Lord Qin."

"Father."

Qin Xiu walked over to her father's side. Qin Wu秦武 - given name meaning Martial/Militant looked at Mo Xiaodan.

"Crown Princess," he addressed. "For you to hold such fantasies about visiting the Mortal Realm is not good. The humans hate us demons. If you're not careful, they will not hesitate to kill you."

Mo Xiaodan shuddered.

"Especially you. If they find out you're a Mogui魔鬼 - name meaning Evil Spirit... Mogui are, according to Chinese tradition, a breed of fairy-folk who possess great powers, which they often use to inflict harm on humans (also notice the character for mo is the same as in Mo Xiaodan),your fate is sealed."

"Why? What's wrong with being a Mogui?"

"You're of fair blood. Your blood is the purest of all demons. How else do you think your family can remain as the Royal Family for so many generations. Your power is the strongest of all demons." Qin Wu added, "If it were Xiu Xiu, she's a Copper Snake like me. Yes, still a demon but not one that will attract such attention."

"Oh. Xiaodan understands."

"Good. Now, I came to find you two because His Majesty requested to speak with Crown Princess."

"I'll go find my Royal Father now then."

Mo Xiaodan waved goodbye to Qin Xiu and Qin Wu and headed back inside Wuye Palace. She made her way over to the throne room and entered. Her father, Mo Leiming魔雷鸣 - given name meaning Thunder, the Demon King of the Demon Realm sat regally on his throne, reading through a report. She walked forward and called out.

"Royal Father!"

Mo Leiming looked up from the bamboo scroll. A weary smile broke out on his face.

"Xiaodan, good you're here."

"What did you want to speak with me about, Royal Father?"

"How have you studies been going?"

"Good, Royal Father. Tutor He is teaching about the Three Realms right now."

"And what have you learned?"

"That the Heaven Realm despises us, and the Mortal Realm kills us."

"Good, now you now the dangers of going to the other realms."

"But Royal Father, Tutor He also taught about the differences between the Three Realms. The different suns are so interesting. Do you think the Demon Realm could ever see a golden sun like the Mortal Realm does?"

"No. Xiaodan you must remember this. Our family's power originates in the Red Sun. The Demon Realm depends on the sun, and we own the sun. Therefore, our family has ruled for generations."

"Ahh."

"Do you understand?"

"I- I think so."

"You are my only beloved daughter. You are also the Crown Princess of the Demon Realm. Someday, this world will be yours and you must remember to always protect our sun."

Mo Xiaodan saluted towards her father and said, "Xiaodan will remember Royal Father's words."

"Hao nǚhai好女孩 - meaning Good Girl."

"I'll leave first then, Royal Father."

He nodded in agreement, and she excused herself. Mo Xiaodan returned to her bedroom and sat down at the table. Two maids came in and poured some hot tea.

"Dianxia殿下 - meaning Your Highness," they began. "The entire Demon Realm is getting ready for your eighteenth birthday. Aren't you excited? That's when His Majesty will turn the Demon Realm over to you."

"My birthday isn't for another four months. Why are the demons starting to celebrate now?"

"It's such a joyous and momentous occasion for the Demon Realm. Why wouldn't they celebrate early?" one of the maids, Su Mengmeng苏蒙蒙 - given name meaning Misty asked.

I'm not ready to rule, Mo Xiaodan thought. How can I take care of the demons when I haven't even come into my full power yet? I still can't wield the Red Sun's power.

"Eh, I don't know. I don't even feel prepared."

"Dianxia, don't worry. Hasn't Young Lady Qin been studying to become your advisor? Just like Lord Qin is to His Majesty?" the other maid, Shu Weiji舒慰藉 - given name meaning Solace considered.

"Yes, but Qin Xiu can only do so much."

"There's still four months. Dianxia, His Majesty wouldn't crown you if he didn't think you were ready."

But Royal Father knows I can't wield the Red Sun's power. Why is he going through with this?

Just then, there was a knock on her door. The maids bowed and retreated behind her.

"Who is it?"

"Xiaodan, come with me," Mo Leiming answered.

She got up and went to the door. Opening it, her eyes widened when she saw her father dressed in more modest clothing.

"Where are we going, Royal Father?"

"To Sunlight Pavilion."

Mo Xiaodan turned her head. "Don't wait up for me."

Su Mengmeng and Shu Weiji nodded.

Mo Xiaodan followed her father outside. They headed west to the farthest edge of Wuye Palace. There, stood a red marble pavilion. The two sat down on white marble stools at the white marble table.

"What is it, Royal Father?"

"There is a reason why you haven't been able to wield the Red Sun's power. It's because the ability has to be transferred."

"What do you mean?"

"Tonight, I'm going to teach you how to wield the Red Sun's power."
