"Royal Guards are here! Seek shelter at once! Seek shelter at onc-"
BANG!
"No!"
"Rena, run!"
"RUN RENA!"
I woke up from the nightmare that interrupts my sleep almost every day. Sweat drops are forming on my forehead as I catch my breath.
Why must I dream something that is impossible to happen?
Why do I always dream that I'll be chased down by the royal guards when I don't even show up in front of the palace?
How could a peasant like me, be protected by every single person around me?
Lastly, why would they bother to set foot upon a village located in the forsaken realm when they despise us from the bottom of their hearts?
Sighs.
Well, a dream is only a dream.
Royal guards on a hunt for a silly girl like me? Huh.
Such a fantasy.
