Flashback

"Before nightfall on your sixteenth birthday you will discover what you are. The spell will then be broken and you will be able to leave this palace. Until then you must stay here and when you are free you will find your soul mate but only if your heart and mind are open to love."

Flashback Over

Those were the last words that I heard from that old witch. She claimed to be helping me when she killed my parents and imprisoned me here, in this palace. She used to come every day and would never hurt me. She taught me everything I needed to know up until I was at the age of ten. These were the last words she said to me. I haven't seen her since. I have been in here for six years all alone. Today is my sixteenth birthday and I hope she was telling the truth.
