Snippet #1639302

Finally by keeping her head down and a low profile, Princess Elehna made her way to the Castle grounds where she made her way to a small back exit which only her and Rivera knew about. It was only a small hole in the large hedge which surrounded the Castle grounds, but it was big enough for her to squeeze through. Once out, a grin appeared across her face as she stretched contently. She loved the idea of being free to do what she liked.

Little did she know that back in the Castle, the guard who had been sent to check on her by her Father had sent an alert within the Castle that Princess Elehna had already gone missing. Guards had been sent to search the entire Castle and the grounds, to then proceed to searching the entire Kingdom. Such chaos... and for what? So the Princess could go for a walk and maybe train her archery.

Princess Elehna made her way near the edge of the forest of Morlay, still keeping her head low and her eyes alert. She was smart enough to realise that these were dark times... A disaster could strike at any moment. For a Princess to be out and about at such times was dangerous... But she grew tired of not being trusted. Elehna did believe she could look after herself for a few hours.

The edge of the forest of Morlay was the outline of the Kingdom. Not far away was Lyncon: The Kingdom of Dark Elves. She had always been intrigued as to why her Father had kept Elehna away from them and had turned down the marriage between her and King Raziel. The Princess had only met him three of four times and he seemed like a great man. Though, her Father had always said he was good a deception and that Elehna was naive enough to think he was charming. Somehow, she could believe her Fathers words.

The upcoming war still continued to play on her mind. Why didn't her Father tell her who was attacking and when? Was it because he didn't know? Or was he sheltering her like her usually did? It annoyed her, but these thing couldn't be helped. She'd soon find out.

Princess Elehna soon found her favorite spot near the forest. It was perfect for seeing Morlay's Castle and Lyncon's Castle... They were two beautiful buildings. The young redheaded female set down her hood and grabbed her bow. She always used the oldest Oak tree within the Kingdom for her archery practice. It was big enough to bounce off any of her arrows and it never seemed to get damaged. Besides, it was a beautiful stop to train.

The moon light lit up her milky pale face, making her eyes intensify in colour. Elehna tilted her head to aim at the large oak tree, before letting go of the arrow. She'd repeat this process over and over again. For all she knew, no one knew she had left the Castle and she had all night... If only this were true.
