Across the kingdom, in a heavily guarded palace, a maiden of 17 sat in her room un-tangling her long brown hair, brown as dirt, but her eyes were as green as the rolling pastures. Her father ,the king, had requested her presence. She didnt want to show up looking a mess. She brushed off her blue gown, and twisted her hair into her favorite braid, then set off for his royal chambers. Upon arriving she noticed the doctor leaving the room. Worried, she knocked on the door and entered before he could reply. She ran to his side and held his hand. Her father was a kind man. Taking care of his people as a king should.He looked into her eyes and managed a weak smile. "My dear sweet analiese... i know i say this alot, but you look so much like your mother..." The king paused to cough before turning back to her." She would have been proud of the girl youve become." Analiese smiled. Her mother died when she was two. It was her mother who named her and given her her nickname " leisel" which the king still used. "My little liesel. All grown up. Its time for you to take the next step" the king coughed again. Analiese covered her father more "you need to rest. Save your breath" Her father looked into her eyes. "Ive not much breath to save. You are kind and gentle and loving. I know you will care for the people as i have. You will become queen at the end of the month. But there are rumors of dark forces lurking. The dark wizard ganendorf is starting up his masses for an attack. You must never give into his demands." He coughed and blood came up. The king gripped ana's hands tightly. "Stay safe liese, one day you will meet a man unlike any other. Love him with your everything. I love you liese" she started to cry. " i love you too" she wrapped her arms around his neck and cried like an infant. She heard his last breath and felt his heart finally stop. She called for a maid, and as the maid came in, analiese went rushing out. She went to her room and packed a small bag of clothes. She changed and then snuck out of the castle using a servants entrance. From there she ran, and didnt look back.
