Chapter 2 - Voyage
I couldn't bear saying goodbye to my mother.
As I was getting married to a Prince, I was forced to live in his country.
Therefore, this was most likely going to be the last time that I saw my mother.
I packed my things and immediately set off for Windmont.
Thalia Lynn
I'm sorry that I didn't get to spend my 18th birthday with you, Mother...
My mother was the best mother ever.
Even after falling into disfavour because of me, she still loved me with all of her heart.
She still fed me, dressed me and played with me everyday.
She embraced my talent of affection with animals as a gift, not a curse.
The journey to Windmont wasn't going to be easy.
It took a month and a half to arrive there by horse, and you had to sail across the Nylian sea.
It's a treacherous path but I guess that I have two choices.
Die on the road or somehow survive once I arrive at the palace.
The journey was indeed treacherous.
The footmen didn't even get me a bedroom to sleep in when they stopped by the inn.
I fell asleep in the carriage, cold and dirty.
However, I was lucky that they gave me enough to eat.
Soon, in the middle of the night, I finally arrived at the palace of the Crown Prince.
Nanny Marie
We weren't expecting you this late...
A woman said, walking down the stairs.
Driver
My apologies but this carriage is needed back sooner or later.
The driver then turned around and balling up my fist, I punched him right in the nose, sending him flying to the floor.
Thalia Lynn
That was for everything... jerk.
I then turned towards the lady and curtsied.
Thalia Lynn
I am Princess Thalia Lynn, the fifteenth princess of the Kingdom of Terrace.
Thalia Lynn
I'll be in your care from now on.
She smiled and took a look at the man on the ground who had just been punched with a right hook.
Nanny Marie
Normally, I'd tell a lady off for punching a man but that man's attitude quite deserved it.
Nanny Marie
I'm Nanny Marie, the Crown Prince's old nanny.
Nanny Marie
He hired me back to make sure that you are the most comfortable living in the palace.
Nanny Marie
Well, that was before...
She smiled sweetly and gestured towards the door.
Nanny Marie
Nothing. Come on in, Princess.
I walked up the stairs while the other driver quickly hurried to unload the carriage.
Least he get a right hook too.
Nanny Marie
So, this is the great palace of Windmont, constructed by our kind many centuries ago.
Nanny Marie
This is now your home.
I was happy back when I was with my mother. I had a home in her arms.
Can I truly treat this as my home?
