Oh, hi.  Welcome to the kingdom of music! What kind? Well, every kind! Who am I? Well, I'm the princess of this kingdom. But you already know me, Neci Mose. Yes, they officially changed my name and I am part of the family! So, happy to be loved! Oh, Howlin said I can't bite his neck until we're married; which sucks and might be forever!  Also, the people, or i should say ex pirates, now live happily in my kingdom.  

Though I often wonder about that spooky Denzel girl, being under this possible curse and The Fee Family with their amnesia. It worries me greatly and has me curious. I asked Laban if he can help The Guardian, but Laban even said his knowledge of such a curse is limited and is possibly part of the dark arts or dark magic; which is forbidden in this kingdom 'cause of how dangerous some of them are. Laban even told me before of a story where he actually tried to study one of them, so he could use it to protect the kingdom. 

Instead it almost burned him to death 'cause he had no way of controlling it. He said he was young and stupid at the time, and just wanted to do what he could to help the kingdom. That explains why he always serious and most times quiet, but the thing that makes me most curious is why he seems to drip blood outta his empty right eye and he also never seems to eat or sleep. I decided to try and ask him and Laban told me that that's the place where he shot himself after committing suicide, and I was shocked but more curious than ever, and asked why did he kill himself. 

Laban sadly and slowly looked away from me and said,"It was long ago, your highness. Before I was a mage knight and... before I was dead, but that part shouldn't shock you since you, yourself, is a type of undead.,"and I nodded, figuring he has a point but asked him to continue then he said,"I was just a simple man; I ate, slept, and worked at my job; just like anyone else with my wife, Shannon, and... the children. Suddenly, one night, some thug tried to break into my house and kidnap my wife, but I tried to stop him, and I thought I was about to win but suddenly, after I got his gun and tried to fire at him... "then he started to cry real tears in his other eye and cried more blood outta his empty eye then said,", ...but... I murdered my wife! The bastard used my wife as a shield! And outta rage I tried to chase him, and fired at him madly. I did kill him, but I realized then that... my children might be dead, and.... *he fell to his knees after removing his mask and covered his face, crying,"...I-I murdered them!", then Father heard us and he was about to come to us, but I told him to wait. 

I asked,"So, how are you alive, Laban?"then he said calming down a lil but still crying said,"I guess, it's 'cause of what Warrick did when I met the girls or when I met that woman scientist, but I was resurrected to help people. I must say, Your Highness, though I'm sure I've met and helped many people, I oddly can't remember most of it. I only remember being here all this time.",then I went into thought and Father came to us, and said,"I know you're memory is poor, Sir Laban, but you have us to care for you and help you; even if you are undead." then, and this surprised me, his serious and cold heart must've melted cause he actually smiled at Father then, with staff in hand, hugged him and thanked him. 

Hmm. I may now be a proper princess, but my curious detective instincts still flow through my blood; though Scarecrow really solved most of them and not me. So, who is this Phantom Knight of Magic I call Laban Bell? Is what he says true or is it another false memory? From what I heard after I went to visit Scarecrow, or Yorick as he seems to be called now, he was just drinking and drinking his sorrows in beer. He almost didn't seem to recognize me until I spoke, and he was all drunk and telling me to fuck off, and saying I caused him enough trouble. 

At first I didn't know what he was talking about, until I remembered how I was and told him I've changed and became a princess, but he said drunkenly,"Well, whoopy  fucking do for you. *hic* You all high and mighty how and get to boss people about, huh? *hic* Alsooooo..... You know what fucking hell I went through?", then I said,"No, Yorrick.",then he drunkenly explained everything after I was captured and chased by the plain face demon, and after he got his memory and realized how much he wished he was Scarecrow again with no memory or even a past.
