I tried not to blush in the thought of this day, I had been waiting for this day for so very long. My prince was coming. We had an arranged marriage from many many years ago to join our families, he was a high ranking lord of the kingdom so I was excited, of course, I knew marrying for love wasn't an option I'm a princess it's my duty to marry whomever it will be best for me to marry, for the sake of the kingdom, for politics and my people and if it protects and helps them with the war we looked over then, of course, I was more than happy to do so. I knew war loomed over us, there was unrest in the south. There has always been unrest in the south to an extent they were dark, monstrous, unhappy people but as I watched the world I love to develop I couldn't help but notice this thick, black, evil to the south growing ever more dangerous and ever more of a concern. I knew the war was to come but I had faith in the armies that protected the castle, in the lord's and ladies who guided our decisions as of course, I would have utter faith in my husband once he arrives this afternoon.
I hurried down to the main hall of the castle where the throne sat, empty for many years now since my father passed, my mother passed away long ago bringing me into this world. I had remarried but no child had come of it. My stepmother returned to her home leaving the throne to only be loomed over by advisors and lords till today, At my wedding I was to take one of the two seats there and my husband the other.
