"In here you'll call me 'your Highness'"

Perhaps they were right putting love into books.

Perhaps it could not live anywhere else."

Trigger Warning: Mentions blood

I woke up to the soft rise and falls of riding in a carriage.

"Welcome back, amor." A voice said.

I blinked my eyes a few times and realized I was lying on the soft cushions of the carriage with my head in Quackity's lap.

I immediately jolted up but was met with an incredibly painful stabbing sensation in my chest. Quackity gently grabbed me and lowered me back down.

"Calm down, no need to freak out. Not yet at least." He comforted. Kind of.

"What happened?" I groaned in pain. I looked down at myself and realized I was still in my dress. Except now it was covered in dried blood and torn in several places.

My memory was slowly coming back but everything was still a bit fuzzy and not to mention I had a terrible headache.

"You took a pretty bad crossbow shot to the chest after you jumped in front of the L'manburg kid."

Oh. Now I remembered. I was instantly filled with rage as I remembered Technoblade shooting at him without a look of remorse.

I could easily put two-and-two together to figure out Dream had put him up to it but that didn't excuse the fact that Techno tried to kill an innocent boy just for money.

Tommy is my friend and I would never let him come in harm's way. Even if it meant ending whatever I had with Techno.

"You should relax. We still have a while to go." Quackity said while looking out the window.

"Where are we going exactly?"

He hesitated.

"Just get some sleep. You look like you need it." He said giving me a half-smile.

"How am I supposed to sleep when I've been shot in the chest, don't know where I am, practically don't know who you are, and can barely move?" I complained.

"All will be answered in due time."

I whined and tried moving away from him but was met with the same awful chest pain. He once again laid me down against him.

"You need to stop moving so much. Doctor's orders." He lectured.

"I don't see a doctor," I mumbled closing my eyes.

It was nighttime by the time I woke up again.

"It appears we have arrived," Quackity said looking out of the window.

Excuse me, what?

From the angle where I lay, I could see an enormous blackstone castle so tall the top was not visible through all the fog. The heavy snowfall added to the dark beauty of the land. It was by far the biggest structure I had ever seen all I could do was stare up at it in awe.

"Welcome to the Galadrielic Empire, sweetheart," Quackity said looking out at the castle with me.

"What- Why are we here?!" I asked looking confused.

"Long story but Dream wants you here now." He explained.

My brain was moving a million miles a minute and I was starting to sweat. Of course, I knew I was going somewhere against my will but I never would have guessed we'd go this far north.
