"What is she like?" I asked Kunzite, my head general, as we headed down the corridor.
"What do you not know? You've been engaged since you were five and she a toddler," he replied with a hint of laughter. "My dear prince, are you worried about your meeting with the princess of the moon?"
I stopped walking and turned to him, "I haven't seen her since then. In fact, the only memory I have is of the nurse taking her away to be changed." I pinched my nose in a show and Kunzite could not hold back his laughter.
"Well, I would refrain from mentioning that at this meeting." Kunzite gestured for us to continue walking. "When I met her this morning she was just as everyone says, 'one look and you'll fall in love,' my dear prince."
I scoffed, "No one is that beautiful. Everyone has different tastes."
Kunzite smiled, "Aye, but you've not seen much of the moon people. Those Lunarians are like gods and goddesses and she is the most beautiful of all."
I shook my head, noticing we were nearing the grand hall where my future bride was awaiting my presence. "I need adjectives. Describe her in ways I can understand."
"Gentle, soft-spoken, elegant…" Kunzite's words seemed to trail off in Endymion's mind as he gazed at Princess Serenity. When she noticed him enter, she turned her head and smiled brightly.
"Tranquil," Endymion added without a second thought.
