The princesses bare feet hit the damp ground as She sprint across the woods. Her dress clinched tightly in her hand & pulled up so she won't trip. She stops in her tracks wiping her dried tears away. Her breathing slowing down as she try's to pull herself together.

The princess, despite her efforts, is slow to notice that despite being sure of why she was running, she now found herself in a dense forest. The sound of water could be heard along with the wind, so fierce it seemed to be talking directly to her. Along with that, animal sounds were present at the time.
Hearing the strange noises and finally being able to catch her breath she took off again. Not getting to far she trip over a tree root that had been sticking up from the ground causing her to tumble and fall her body rolling down a steep slope. Before she could go any further she stopped herself, hissing at the feeling of small cuts across her face and knees.

The blood and the open wound were like an invitation, a request from the beasts of the forest to come to a wounded creature. In a matter of minutes howls were heard, resounding along with the growls of wolves, signaling their arrival.

The princess pulled her dress just above her knee seeing it covered in blood. With the pounding sensation coming from it she figured it would be hard to stand so she didn't bother to try. She could hear the sound of wolves howling in the distance and eventually getting close enough where she could see them. She watched in horror as the wolves move closer ready to pounce at any second.

The wolves continued to advance, as if her fear and horror drew them, moths to the fire. The chorus of their growls continues until they suddenly stopped. They all stop, static. A roar erupted from the forest, shrill and furious as thunder. What was once an audience of fangs and snarls turns into a small group of whimpering and the wolves flee towards the forest again

Soon as the loud roar came from beyond the forest the wolves to return from where they came. The princess looked around still scared for her life. Her back hit a tree as she pulled her legs closer to her chest burying her head in her arms.

But As quickly as it came, the roar disappeared, leaving no trace of who, or what, might have done it. Another noise however can be heard. Thunder, this time a real one. Black clouds formed in the sky, along with some lightning. Within seconds, a heavy rain began to rise, its drops of water punished the land and everything under it.

The rain quickly begins soaking the princess. She hesitates to get up from where She sat underneath the tree, but held herself up using it for balance. She shivered as the temperatures begin dropping rather quickly making her regret ever running away. She slowly but surely limp over to the next tree but only then realizing she had no where to go. She looked down at her dirt and blood covered dress and sighed in frustration sitting down next to the tree again thinking there was nowhere left for her to go, she began sobbing quietly hugging herself to keep warm.

Water dripped on her face because of the leaves on the tree, retaining part of the rain, which continued to fall calmer this time. A few seconds pass, before a strange metallic crackle can be heard. At the mouth of a cave, as strange golden glow appears

She looked squinting her eyes trying to get a better look, debating whether or not she should get up and see what it was. But seeing how she needed to get out of the rain she got up and limped towards it.

The cave turns out to be a huge cavern, drastic enough to be considered a castle room, and the small glow soon turns out to be not a glow per se, but a gold coin. Looking further ahead, she notice another, and another, all heading towards the heart of the cave and the mountain. The princesses mouth slightly opened in awe as She continued to walk forward using the walls for balance. She debated whether or not She should pick up the gold coins but quickly shook off the thought as her curiosity got the best of her.
