Aurora woke with a foggy memory. She sat up and winced, holding a hand to her forehead. "Ow, my forehead. What was that?"

The door opened, and in came Aggie, looking worried. "Aurora! You're awake!" she exclaimed, the worried look fading to one of relief. Aurora nodded. "Yeah. But how? I touched the-"

What had happened before she'd fallen hit her then and there. She blinked. "I didn't touch the spindle," she said.

"I'll say," Aggie replied. "It's only been a few days since your brother found you in the tower."

Aurora frowned. "Wait, if it's only been a few days, that means that..."

Her eyes widened in horror.

"I broke tradition."

Aggie furrowed her eyebrows and bit her lip. "Yes, that does seem to be the problem." she turned to the door. "Should I call your brother in?"

"Please do, yes," Aurora said. "I need a Beauty's opinion on this."

Aggie bowed and left. Aurora stood up and began pacing the room. This was not good.

A moment later, her brother Charles opened the door. She turned to face him, only to be embraced.

"You're awake," he said. Aurora nodded. "Yeah. Isn't it tragic?"

"Not for me," Charles said, stepping back. "I don't have to die before my sister awakes."

He laughed. "And I get to torment her future husband."

Aurora couldn't help the laugh that escaped her lips. "We'll see," she said, sitting back down. Charles sat next to her.

"So what happened down there?" he asked. Aurora turned to look at him. "Well, I remember seeing the spindle, and even though I knew what it was, my thoughts kept telling me I didn't. Then..." she faced forward, "Then I reached out towards it, and a woman appeared."

"A woman?" Charles asked. Aurora nodded.

"She kept telling me not to touch the spindle," the princess continued. "Then she reached her hands out and that's all I remember."

Charles frowned thoughtfully. "Did you recognize her?"

"That's the strange part," Aurora said. She looked at her brother once more.

"I think it was mother."
