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.

Notorious Bandits (2)

(Third Person POV)

The bandits started to form two groups right after. They waited out until the designated time of the change of shifts had come. Like the informant said, at eight o'clock sharp the two men guarding the entrance left their posts.

"Such diligent b*astards." The boss swore with a low voice.

But after the two mercenary guards left, no one came to change their guard post. What the informant had said was only one had a stomachache, so there should be one other to replace the guard post.

"This is odd." The boss said with the feeling of uneasiness.

"What are we waiting for boss?" One of bandits asked.

"Yeah, it looks like the other one is not coming." Another one of the bandits said.

The boss still had second thoughts. He noticed something out of the ordinary and had an itchy feeling about it.

"This is our chance boss." One of the bandits whispered to him. "Like you said, lady luck is on our side tonight."
