Myria Goodwin was the heir to the throne of
Mistlemary, that was before she went missing on the day of her coronation.
The queen has since become overcome with grief and sorrow at the loss of her daughter and is described as a ghost with her floating black lace dress and her heavy velvet coat that trails behind. But the very next day the queen died from a broken heart. The king carried on with his royal duties as if nothing had ever happened.
Rumour had it that her sister, Lola, had insisted she steps in place of her disappeared sister.
Lola was the perfect daughter. Her long flaxen blonde hair, glowed magically in the sunlight, with perfect posture and a face like an angel. She got everything she wanted handed to her on a silver platter. She acted more like the heir to the throne, than her older and rebellious sister, who had preferred to spend her time climbing trees, and galloping along windy, rolling hills on her black stallion, Raven. In contrast, her sister would delicately sip a cup of tea and nibble on biscuits.
Let's start at the beginning. It was a cold, dreary morning in Mistlemary, as the town was preparing for their new queen's coronation. Myria's silky black hair somehow still shone with a metallic sheen throughout, and her dress was cut from the finest velvet with red and gold trim around the soft edges. Lola's dress was made out of delicate, floaty pink silk, with a butterfly and lace decorated bodice.
When her mother was alive she was proud, and boastful about her daughter, Myria, because Myria was her favorite child, whereas the king's favorite was Lola.
When the coronation began the heavy, draping curtains were to reveal Myria sitting on her mother's throne, but when they did, Myria had disappeared without a single trace of any evidence!
The kingdom's faces were all shocked, with horror and unrecognizable fear for their beloved princess! The queen was sobbing so loud it made her frail figure shake and shudder. The king had a ghastly look of absolute shock on his line-etched face. But worst of all was,
Lola, a very sly and happy grin had spread across her face like the Cheshire cat. But it quickly flickered away before anyone could pick it up.
The crowd started screaming and crying with grief over their special princess!
