The sun, as warm as ever

The waterfalls, close enough to hear the relaxing sounds of water

The wind, gentle in its journey

The wildlife and the trees sounded busy, yet remained calm in its actions

Combined, these elements resulted in an unmatched harmony. Intuition would say that no man lived in this paradise island

And in a way, that was the case

A carefully crafted wooden door opened, allowing the sunlight to sneak into the room belonging to the only exception of that rule:


You


Upon feeling the light warm up your face, you groaned in annoyance, not getting to enjoy more of that sleep you were so fond of

"It is time, Y/N"

You heard a female voice announce. Once your eyes adjusted to the place, you spotted a redheaded young woman standing at your door

You knew her as Artemis

"Good morning to you too" was all you could say before reluctantly sitting on your bed, getting your body ready for the day

The woman rolled her eyes with a smile, showing that you two had known each other for a while

Artemis: Come on, the queen is waiting for you

You: Alright alright, I'm coming

You stood up and walked towards her, still stretching a little. Artemis' smile only grew wider when she realized just how sleepy you still were

Artemis: In your sleeping clothes?

You looked down to confirm what she said, sighed and then snapped your fingers and in the blink of an eye, you were already wearing the outfit that the residents made for you

You: Happy now?

Artemis: Much better

She chuckled before she began to walk away, getting to the task at hand with you following suit

Once you got out of your small house, you were met with the wonders of nature combined with a Greek structure. Such harmony was what made Paradise Island so remarkable for those who knew it existed

You breathed the fresh, welcoming air of the place and found yourself smiling in no time

You: I'll never get tired of this place...

Paradise Island or Themyscira was very much your home, coming only second to the house of mystery, your actual home

While you spent the first seven years of your life in places like the tower of fate and the house of mystery, you spent the rest of it (until now, at least) in this place

It was prophesied that you would bear a great destiny, nobody knew what it was exactly, but if you were to become something great, you had to be the best version of yourself

As a magic-user yourself, you were trained by the likes of Zatanna, Dr. Fate and Constantine himself, your father

Your body, on the other hand, was being sculpted by the mighty Amazons that inhabited this very place

At first, their leader, queen Hippolyta rejected the idea of a man in Themyscira, but once Dr. Fate himself told her about the legacy that you would live to uphold, she found herself making an exception out of you
