} We drove off in my carriage to the kingdom of the Dark knights

} We drove off in my carriage to the kingdom of the Dark knights. I can tell you now that it wasn't exactly a pleasant ride. there were lots and lots holes in the road. We drove from my Chateau,  trough the city. There I asked my driver to stop at the flower shop. As we arrived, I stepped out of my carriage and walked into the shop.

There I was greeted by the lovely madam who runs the shop. I asked her if I could buy my last bouquet of roses at her shop. She said that it was no problem and asked why this would be my last bouquet. I said that today I will move to another kingdom for my marriage. She congratulated me, but I could see in her eyes that she was upset that I would leave the country. Of course I told her that my friend would still buy flowers at her shop and that my family would too. She said she was honored to have my family visit her shop. I said too her that it was no big deal and that they really liked her flowers. But sadly the time went too fast and I had to continue my journey.

As we drove trough the rest of the city, I realized how much I would miss my family and Lola. This was the city I grew up in. It had the nicest people that I have ever known. There were no thieves nor beggars. Everyone treated each other with respect and love.

I don't think the kingdom of lord Kim is the same as mine. I heard from the servants that there are a lot of thieves and beggars. Because of the soil of his land people don't get enough money from farming, so almost everything has to be imported, which makes everything the more expensive.

We drove out of the city and continued our way through the woods. When I was small i was always a little afraid of the woods. But now I'm older, I can see the beauty of it. It's the home of many cute little animals. Beautiful birds singing on trees, small rabbits hopping trough the grass. I loved to come to the woods. Normally I would spent hours just laying in the grass, staring up at the tree branches. I guess I will have to leave that behind after I marry that stupid guy.

Peony
How much longer is the ride?

} I asked the driver

Driver
We are only halfway your highness. We just passed the border of our country.

} We only just passed the border? I'm in for a long ride then. I asked my head maid if she can pass me my embroidery things, so I don't have to feel bored. I started making peonies on my canvas. I used blush pink and some grass green to make it more alive. As I was almost finished with my canvas, it started raining. Not normal rain but heavy rain. Like when it touches your skin, it hurts really bad.

Driver
Your highness we need to make a stop to shelter from the rain. Not far from here is an inn. The horses can also take a break from walking.
