In the quaint kingdom of Raine, young Princess Priscilla was everything a princess should be, regal and well mannered, though a deep sorrow still rang in her heart- elegant and poised, but broken. from a family cracked into shards, she grew to fear ever falling for love, thinking that by someday, it would never last, not even with every coin thrown into the wishing well. Though as she is set by her father, the king, to choose and marry a suitor, she is thrown into a troubling fire of reluctance.
Enter Aidan, the earnest peasant boy who set foot into the squirehouse. With a rebellious horse and being known for very little standing in status, he is often estranged by the sons of nobles of the so called humble squirehouse, though managing to get by with the help of two fellow knights, one being his master, one being the stable knight. With only his grandfather's music box and aspiring dreams, he can only hope for the best.
As the two try to get through the challenges of their standing, fate makes things turn for the unknown as they cross paths. What realizations would they soon discover together? What indelible changes will they make in each other's hearts? As secrets are shared and promises between them, so will price and sacrifice be demanded when their friendship turns into perhaps something more. Will the melody of the ballad continue to play? Or will it be drowned out by silence and fear?
Fun fact😅 this is based off an anime oneshot I once read by @pochaccaur called "The Diamond Butterfly", I got inspired tp write this from it. I encourage you to go check out their original work to see where this came from :) happy reading!
