The last thing I remember is someone, a woman, taking me to a little cottage in the woods and leaving me there. She did give me many baskets full of supplies I would need to survive for about three months which was nice of her. I can't remember who that woman is or why she left me there, all I know is that she left me. I live in that little cottage now and I love it there. I'm all alone so I don't have to listen to anyone else but I also have to do everything myself, whether it's a small job like getting wood for the fire or a big job like fixing the roof of the cottage, I have to do it all by myself. I figure out how to do the tasks, most of the time. Sometimes I try what seems like 100 different solutions to problems that pop up but then, they always fail. I don't really mind that they fail and that I can't fix them, but they do get annoying sometimes.

Now for the real story, my name is Danielle, but I call myself Dani. I'm 18 years old and have been living the cottage I've been taking about for as long as I can remember. I don't know if I has born there or if I was put there. Either way I'm sort of glad I ended up there. Luckily my cottage is close to a village where I steal anything I need; whether it's small things like food and clothing or big things, like wood planks and straw bunches, I get it all from the village. Somehow I've never gotten caught and I guess it's just because I'm good, but sometimes I think the owners let me, out of pity or something. Anyways, this story is about how I found out I was a princess and my struggles and adventures I had trying to claim my throne.
