"Riley get up now, we have to get down to the grand banquet!" My father, the King, shouted. "Coming!" I shouted back to him. I quickly brushed my hair, and swam downstairs in a flash. I quickly fixed my crown, then we all swam downstairs to the banquet hall. It was my father's birthday, and the neighboring kingdoms were having a celebratory banquet breakfast for him. As we arrived at the closed doors to the banquet hall, all of our guards straightened up. They fixed their spears and their hats as well. My mother and father linked arms, and one guard opened the doors for them. One of the butlers inside announced their arrival as they swam inside the banquet hall. I fixed my hair and crown, then swam inside. The butler also announced my arrival, when I swam inside. We spent the day celebrating my father, and I put on my best smile throughout this whole thing. Of course my parents presented some suitors for my hand in marriage, but I declined all of them. I'm only 16, and I don't need any of that yet.
