Hello again, viewers. This story is a request from a fellow writer. Penname: alicependragon. Quite very persistent to ask me to do this, and I accepted. This is quite AU. So, enjoy! Bye, my viewers! -Traveler.
Once upon a time, long ago, in Camelot, a prosperous kingdom, there lived a king named Arthur with his little daughter, Alice. When Alice was a baby, her father, the king had to take her with him to Troy, a Turkish place because Queen Helen of Sparta was stolen by the Prince of Troy, Paris.
Alice loved the idea of going to the war, and fighting to bring the Queen of Sparta back to her husband because she always loved the idea of becoming a knight of the round table just like her foster father, Sir Lionel.
Her father, King Arthur, sensing what Alice wants to become, he tried hard to stop her from her dream saying, "My dear daughter, Alice, I can't lose you. Your dream of knighthood must be stopped immediately.".
But the little girl was persistent, replying, "Oh, come on, Father. I'm no chicken. I will fight in the Trojan war and I'll become a knight.". Despite his daughter's assuring words, the king felt as if he would lose her sooner then he expects, so he reluctantly allowed her to continue her dream.
After the Trojan war ended, King Arthur had a meeting with his Knights of the Round table before a little hand grabs his hand and trudges it. He looks to the blue eyes of his little girl and he said, "What's the matter, my dear little Alice?".
Alice said innocently, "Daddy, I really want to go back home back to Camelot. When will we go back to the kingdom?". The young king looked thoughtfully at his little girl, replying, "Don't worry, my dear little Alice. We'll return back home sooner than you think, I promise you.".
They went up on the boats and sailed away from the destroyed Troy and into Ismarus where the Cicones lives. The king sent his daughter to bring back supplies. She said to her foster sister Kayley, "Now, look at this! What's going on? We've sailed into Ismarus where the Cicones live.".
Kayley replied, "Aw, come on, little sister. There's no reason to be upset. Your father just wanted to search for food.". They meet an old woman whose name is Aurora and Aurora is truly amazed of how brave King Arthur's daughter is. She said to Alice, "Dear child, in all my life, I never saw a young girl so brave and heroic like yourself, and this impresses me greatly. Here, take this jar of wine. You'll find it useful.".
Alice looked at the old woman and nodded gratefully, taking the jar, "Thank you, my dear lady.". When Alice returned back, her father shook his head disapprovingly, and he said to Alice, "Dear daughter, what did I say to you about strangers?".
She replied back, "Oh, come on, Father. She's really good, and she gave me this jar of wine. She said that we'll find it useful.". King Arthur sighed in despair, but he said with worry in his voice, "Yes, but my dear daughter, I told you not to speak to strangers because you won't know what they'll do to you. People these days are neither good or bad. It's the bad people I am worried about. They're dangerous.".
Alice nodded, replying, "I'll be careful, Daddy. Don't worry so much.". Arthur sighed, hugging her gently, said to his little girl, "I don't want to lose you. my dear daughter for I love you that much.".
