Karri walked through her kingdom of peace and hope. The cheery civilians were ready to settle down after a gracious victory against Gonoro, their most troublesome rival. Karri grabbed a daisy, picking the petals off one by one calmly. The chatterbox citizens went silent and a blonde-haired girl sprinted across the rainbow path.
"TRENT IS HERE!! HIDE!! KARRI WHAT DO WE DO?" Kai, the blonde, shivered. Trent. The prince of Gonoro. Well, the king since the warriors killed the last king. Trent's brown hair bounced as he strutted through the rainbow pavement, guards behind him.
"I'll talk to him over tea! I'm going to tell the chef about the upcoming party! If you like, you can come, Kai!" Karri smiled as she walked towards the rival.
"Pretty pink kingdom; Would be a shame if it was painted red." Trent threatened.
"Dear Trent, may we talk over tea? I feel a peaceful outcome would happen if such a thing occurred," Karri peacefully proposed.
"I- uh- Sure... whatever." The criminal man agreed.
"Excellent! Meet at the closest table near the river. It will have rose quartz statuettes nearby! I need you there in around 20 minutes. All will be prepared by then," The sugary sweet queen informed as she walked away, heading to her room in the highest tower in the castle. She rummaged through her wardrobe to pick out a picnic dress. Karri found the prettiest dress for such a formal tea "party".
A short flowy lace pink dress with puffed-out sleeves. The silky lace was white, coordinating with the rest of the dress. She grabbed a fully white corset and tightened it. Now all she needed was accessories. Pink bows tied with faux strawberry earrings. A white lace choker with gold accents and pearls with a fake pink rose in the center. White lace stockings and black loafers. her outfit was complete.
Karri walked with her perfect medium-cut hair breezing by with every step she took. She sat down at her white set-up for picnics. Karri was the only one there for about 5 minutes. Trent arrived and sat down, ready to get this over with.
"So Trent, what was your entrance to Sacred Square for?" Karri investigated. Trent was surprised at her bluntness, then responded shortly.
"I- uh- well- I want revenge. You and your people k-killed my father! I demand war!" Trent screamed in Karri's face, spilling his tea slightly as he slammed his hand on the table.
"I-I'm sorry Trent, but we just came out of war. I'm afraid not," Karri sipped her tea with a small scowl at the cruel man in her face. Her eyes opened wide filled with anger as Trent poured his hot tea all over her.
"YOU BRAT! IF YOU ARE SUCH AN EXCELLENT PLACE THEN YOU WILL HAVE THE FUNDS TO GO TO WAR WITH GONORO! BE A LEADER AND FIGHT ME!" Hateful speech dripped off his tongue as Karri's face went red with a distaste for how he treated her.
"I will go to war with you. You embarrassed me as a ruler and now I want you gone. No one dumps boiling tea on me. I will not be treated with such disrespect. This is war. Now leave!" Karri's voice got louder and filled with more anger as her words flowed throughout her sentences.

"People of Sacred Square! You might have heard but we are going to war with Gonoro again. Anyone is allowed to fight for us. James is my right-hand man in this war. If you have questions, go to either of us. Three guards need to watch over the Sacred Stone! I will hand-pick the person with the loyalty to watch over it. If you get picked, a guard will blindfold you and take you to the Stone Room," Karri declares to the villagers. "Any questions?"
"Why are we at war?"
"Trent yelled in my face for revenge, when I denied he burnt my- face with boiling tea," the crowd went quiet after that. Karri disbanded the meeting and the day went forward.

Kai was walking through the flowering field filled with an assortment of pastel flowers from the finest of red to the most ravishing lilac. A taller man named Max towered beside her.
"Isn't Karri's reason for war rather foolish?" Max asked the archer next to him. Kai's blonde hair and bright blue eyes laid on his brunette hair and enriching blue eyes.
"Yes, but her emotions get out of whack sometimes. She is an odd character. But she is my best friend. I love her. Not that way. You get what I'm saying," Kai defended Karri.
"We have to leave. An ominous presence lurks around the kingdom. It's not safe. We can't stay in one place," the defensive girl claimed. The aura around the field gave off dark vibes. Something was up...
