Once upon a time, in the kingdom of Brashire, a princess fell in love with a peasant. Typical story. King Andrew, of course, wanted his daughter to fall in love with a prince. Well, he didn't care if she fell in love with a prince- She was going to marry a prince.
The village of Eclesair was defined by the massive castle rising up in the middle. The castle was huge, built partially of gold and gems as well as painted stones. The peasants were poor, and worked hard all day long for enough money to buy scarcely enough food to feed their family. The king's family were rich, and threw food away daily. The only hope for a peasant was to be hired by the king.
To keep good public relations, the king talked to citizens regularly. Or rather, once a month he stood around in town and let his guards do the talking. However, he did let his daughter, Serena, wonder around the town, to get an idea of how lucky she was and how she wasn't to associate with the peasants.
However, she didn't quite understand that message.
The King noticed that she was starting to spend her time every month with one young man in particular, Darien. When first questioned, Serena denied loving the young man, but a couple of days later, Darien came to ask the King for Serena's hand in marriage.
The King sent him to the dungeons for a day.
Unfortunately, the day after Darien was freed, the princess disappeared for a few hours. She claimed that she was simply in the sewing room, and she had lost track of the time.
Two days later, both Serena and Darien were missing.
Darien knew plenty of shortcuts through the woods, and the couple were soon out of the kingdom, and in foreign territory- the territory of Shoshire, under King Simon and Prince Diamond's rule. They planned on acting as a normal peasant couple from Brashire, who had gotten sick of King Philip's overbearing rule, and that they had come to find a better life.
Sadly, Prince Diamond had visited King Philip two weeks ago. He dined with the Princess. He, also, had a habit of standing around in the town center monthly.
Darien and Serena had bought a small hut with a bracelet Serena had taken with her, and were quite happy, until one day. Diamond recognized Serena under her veil.
Darien was killed, and Serena was taken prisoner.
The king's knights are out searching for Serena, with orders to kill Darien, when they are found by a ghost. Darien's ghost. His presence can only be around for a few seconds at a time, but the knights have to find Serena, or else she will be killed and Brashire will have no nobility, making it a lot easier for Shoshire to take over the empire, or Diamond will make Serena his wife, meaning that he has easy access to Brashire.
Will you join in on the action?
