New tore down all of the curtains from its rod, quickly fashioning it into a makeshift rope. As he secured it to the window ledge, his mind raced with thoughts of freedom and rebellion.

New: "To hell with the engagement. I'm taking control of my own destiny."

With a leap of faith, New propelled himself out of the window. As New landed on the ground, a wave of relief washed over him, but his moment of triumph was short-lived. Before he could fully comprehend his surroundings, the flicker of a fire torch illuminated the night, revealing the encroaching figures of guards closing in around him.

New's eyes widened in shock as he realized he had fallen into a trap, his heart pounding with a mixture of fear and frustration.

New: "What is this? What's going on?"

Amidst the chaos, King Sebastian emerged from the shadows, his expression unreadable as he surveyed the scene before him.

In the forest:

As the clock struck midnight, Tay stole away into the depths of the forest, his heart racing with anticipation as he prepared to meet his beloved Princess Anya. In the shelter of the trees, they made plans to elope to a distant land where they could be free from the constraints of duty and obligation.

But their fleeting moment of happiness was shattered when the sound of approaching footsteps broke through the silence of the night. Panic seized them as the guards from Princess Anya's kingdom emerged from the shadows, their expressions stern and unyielding.

Despite their desperate attempts to flee, Tay and Anya found themselves outnumbered and outmatched by the determined guards. With a heavy heart, Tay watched helplessly as Anya was swiftly captured, her cries of protest echoing through the night air.

Tay's blood ran cold as his father, King Alexander, materialized from the darkness, his eyes ablaze with fury as he confronted his son.
