I wake up from my slumber, I get out of bed and open the curtains 'It's still dark outside.' I thought watching the sun slowly rise from the mountains, I look around my room still trying to wake myself up. I spot a key on my table "Why is that there." I whisper to myself even though no one would hear me, I slowly walk up to the table and grab it 'Oh, that's why.' remembering the note from Lord Asmodeus. I walk over to my cupboard and unlock it, taking the two books apart and grabbing the note 'I have to go, he's been waiting long enough for me to arrive.' I figured. I go towards my wardrobe and open it revealing gorgeous dresses and accessories, I grab a short navy dress, a few golden bracelets and heels changing into it as quick as I can, brushing my hair and doing light makeup trying not to look messy then open the door "Hello princess. Where do you think you're going?" The Captain says with a grin 'Oh shit.' I thought "Uhm, just going for a walk in the garden." I said avoiding eye contact "At 6 in the morning? I don't think so, get back in your room." He spoke in a dull tone, I nod and shut the door behind me. I check every 20 minutes to see if he's disappeared yet and of course he hadn't, I had enough of waiting I already spent too long I grab a few blankets from my closet and tie them making a rope, I throw the long tied cloth down my balcony and slide down trying to hold my skirt down as I go. I fall onto the ground with a argh sound following behind 'That hurt, I don't know if that was worth it.' I thought while rubbing my backside.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

I walk through the forest making my way to the village holding the note in my hand, I stare at the beautiful views of the trees, mountains and water as I finally make it. I go to the nearest person I ask them where his palace is showing them the address, unfortunately they didn't know so I walk to the next person I see "Oh, I remember this place. It's in the next city over." The bystander spoke softly "Thank you for your help." I walk off as people start pointing towards me and waving 'I guess they know who I am now, I should have took my hood with me.' I said to myself trying to hide my face with my hand and walking to a man on a carriage "Hello, could you get me to Lightgrove please? I need to get there soon, of course I'll pay you." I say still hiding my face with my hand "Alright, I was going that way anyways." He nods while speaking, I hand him a few slivers and get on praying for a quick and not so bumpy ride. After he delivers some of his stock to different places around the village and crossing them off on a piece of paper he finally sits down and speaks "Next stop Lightgrove." 'That took quite a while.' I thought to myself while nodding to him.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

I find myself being poked by the man as the sun hits my tired eyes, I rub the sleep out of the corners of them and stretch my limbs as the man speaks "We arrived at Lightgrove miss, you should get off so I can continue working." I look around just realising that I fell asleep the whole time "Thank you sir." I smile while giving him another sliver, as I get off the carriage the man goes almost instantly so I make my way through the unique village, it was so lively and everywhere had colour compared to this my village seemed boring looking. I continue through the crowded area trying to get closer to the palace "Hey, are you lost?" I turn around as I hear someone behind me, I stare into their hazel eyes taking a minute to answer 'I think so, I'm trying to get to the palace." I smile nervously he smiles and leads the way 'What if he's a creep.' I stop in my steps after that thought pops it my head, he turns back when he couldn't hear my footsteps "Aren't you coming?" he spoke while having a confused expression "I'm sorry but i have to go." I quickly run past him and make my way to the nearest crowd and ask for directions instead.
