I arrived in Comyr that morning. It was cold and the drizzle fell around my hood. I had never been to a human city before and I was excited to meet this supposedly handsome prince of theirs.
Myself and my three guards headed straight for the palace. We had been invited by the king himself. The only stipulation on my visit was that I couldn't tell anyone I was the crown princess of Myth Drannor, the ancient elven haven. No one was to know out of fear for my life. Too many people believe the elves of Myth Drannor's blood possessed the power to heal any and all ailments, even death. Only the king and queen knew the truth.
The palace was like none other that I had ever seen. It was made from gold and silver and some elven material's. Getting excited I took off on my own. I was rounding the corner to the garden's when I saw two gentlemen practicing the sword.
I stood and watched. The broader one swing the sword with such precision that I didn't know how the smaller man kept up. He pinned the smaller man up against the castle walls. "I have bested you again, Lord Merlyn" he said, his voice sounding like church bells ringing. "Ah your highness you know I can't defeat you in the matter of brawn but in the matter of the mind I will always best you" he said laughing.
I blushed. I couldn't believe I was spying on the prince himself. I turned and started walking away when someone grabbed my arm.
"Fair maiden, why are you running off so fast" said a voice. I turned around and was face to face with the prince himself. I blushed a crimson red and he laughed. "You must be Princess Felicity from the Elven lands" he said and bowed. 'He knows my name' I thought to myself. "Yes your highness I am. What is your fair name" I said talking way to fast. "My name is Oliver my lady. May I show you around"? I shook my head yes because I could not find my voice.
Oliver took me by the arm and we headed towards the palace doors. I heard Lord Merlyn yell "when's the wedding" and then start to laugh. "Don't mind Tommy, he is harmless" Oliver said and we headed inside.
