Meant to be

A princess with no talent for nobility, had to survive a scarce life of challenges ever since her father went missing. Everything began on her 16th birthday. Her brother went to war whilst celebrating her birthday, and during that she realised her father was missing. Ever since then, she had to take responsibility as queen of their empire. Later on, she had heard rumours of the war her brother was in never existed. Since it had been years since it started. She had gone out to venture the battlefield. During that, she happens to meet a particular person.
"You..." Amonea stared intently
"Uhm.. could you please not do that?" He quiled quietly. His body was scratch up and beaten. She could see bruses on his body.
"Sorry. Your name?" She asked whilst smiling brightly.
"Oh! Uhm.. River." He cruves a smiles on each edge, as if trying to come out as 'friendly'
"I'm Amonea. Pleased to meet you." She held her hand out, but she then realised his hands were full so she casually shakes it off.
"Well then I'll be on my way, Amonea." He bowed and walked away. Something about him is familiar to Amonea, but she can't quite put her mind into it.
