The Forgotten Princess

Alicia Rosalyn Von Heist is the youngest daughter of King Edward of Alvannia. She is an illegitimate child born from a maid in the castle her father has fancied. After her mother died when she was young her father took her home and ‘adopted’ her. Because of her low birth and illegitimacy she was neglected by her father the king and bullied by her stepmother the queen and her step-siblings. When she was 16 years old a war broke out with the neighboring country of Grandcrest. The war lasted for two long years and the two countries have made a truce at the end. The Grandcest empire demanded a princess to be married to the young king. It is said that the king of Grandcrest specifically asked for the hand of Alicia. Alicia was 18 years old when she was sent to Grandcrest as the fiancee of the young king who was said to be a cold blooded evil tyrant, King Regaleon of the Grandcrest empire.

The Sister’s Scheme (1)

It has been some hours since the engagement party has started. Regaleon and I have been talking with guests since the announcement.

"Leon, let's rest for a while." I said to him. "I am a little tired."

"Alright." Regaleon said with a smile. "Would you like to get some fresh air in the garden near by?"

"Mm-hmm." I nodded. "Some fresh air sounds good."

Surrounded by so many people can be a bit tiring and suffocating as well. A breath of fresh air maybe is what I need.

Regaleon led me by my hand towards the exit. Once outside I inhale the fresh air around. The night was bright with a full moon shining.

Regaleon's attendants came to give us our cloaks. Regaleon put his on and helped me put mine. I smiled at him as thanks to his small gesture.

"Let's sit down there." Regaleon led me to a small gazebo. Inside are some chairs and a table.

Regaleon, being a gentleman, pulled a chair out and helped me seat down. And he sat down on a chair beside me.

"Still tired?" Regaleon asked.
