Another boring day at the palace, and Nene can't do it anymore 'I swear another boring day I'm gonna go back in the forest' she scuffed. "Princess" someone knocked "huh" she cleared her voice "yes?" Nene opened the door. "The king is looking for you, please get to his room soon," Nene thanked the maid and sighed "I wonder what it is" she said disinterested. Nene ran to her vanity and fixed her hair and makeup. "Uh,father?" She knocked "come in," a deep voice was heard

"What do you think about marriage?" Oh what a question "what" she said like they just told her that she was now a widow after his husband left for war. "We have to make peace with this kingdom that wants to start a war, you are now old enough for marriage," her father told her, "But,fath-" "Nothing Nene, ignore it. You will get married,no matter what," he raised his voice "yes, father. I'll be heading to my room" she was at the verge of tears. 'I thought I was prepared for this news,but I ...maybe I'm not' she frowned

She went in to her room thinking about her next class and cry, of course "hmm ballroom..." Nene hates her ballroom class,it's boring...and very strict. Nene ignored the past news her best and went to her class in her lightly colored high heels and a long dress,only a little longer than other days. On her way to the ballroom where her classes were taken,she passed a dimly lit hall "Your highness!" She heard coming from a room nearby. She went near the wall and put her ear up to it,"your highness, we can raise up the perhilia flower tax! So many countries have invested in it, they will find a way to declare war!" A deep voice declared. Nene ignored it...perhilia flowers, how dumb. They were just trying to evade war with her marriage, what a waste. 


The sound of her heels everytime she took as step, it was all too deafening, she slowly danced with a great posture, better than usual. A soft smile a dainty expression, her complexions better highlighted with her shimmering make-up under the warmly lit room, it was already night, she could see it in the big, big window. The moon was particularly shimmery that night. Nene came back from her classes and went out to her backyard, well the royal backyard, covered in splendidly colored flowers. She sat near an unfunctioning fountain. Her dress shined beautifully under the moonlight,for no one to see.

No one ,but the serene moon who hears all her problems each night. She looked at the section of the garden with purple flowers,reminding her of him,who cares, she's going.

She ran back to her room and changed to something better,not very comfy but definitely better. And she just went out,not even snuck. Once she was out she remembered how the village functions at night,it felt comfortable to be with "her people". Just once once living without a worry at night dancing and eating. After the nice sight she entered the forest,remembering her first time ,she followed her same trail. She walked and started regretting her decision."I am totally walking back,"


"Wait...is that skully?"
