Slayers: The Meaning of Life

Part 3: Amelia

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

N: The confused teenager wanders aimlessly around, now even less certain as to the point of her life. Her ramblings take her to the well know kingdom of Saillune.

me: Maybe I should ask the princess, Amelia, what she thinks the meaning of life is. She is a princess, after all. And it's the business of royalty to know these types of things.

N: So she marches herself up the steps to the royal palace and knocks on the door. A stuffy-looking butler answers.

SLB: Can I help you, Miss?

me: I need to see the princess. it's very important.

SLB: Do you have an appointment?

me: ...No. ^^;

SLB: Then I'm afraid Princess Amelia cannot be bothered.

N: Just then, the princess herself wanders into the hall. She's heard the sound of the door opening and comes running in hopes that Zelgadiss has come back to her.

Amelia: DID ZEL COME BA-- oh...I guess not. *sighs* Who are you?

me: I'm the author of the fanfic. Maybe if you answer my question, I'll have Zel come back later.

Amelia: *squeals* What's your question?

me: What is the meaning of life?

Amelia: Oh, that's easy. The meaning of life is love and justice. Without the honesty of the populace, there is no reason to go on! You should always strive to uphold the law. Never tire of doing what is right! The path to salvation lies within...

N: and Amelia launches of into a speech about the tributes of justice in one's life.

*several hours later*

me: *yawn* I'm getting nowhere with this. -_-
Amelia *still preaching* ...and there is not enough rectitude in the world! All is not good and fair....

me: *looks at watch* Well, I've got to be going...

N: The thoroughly bored girl wanders out of the palace, a glazed look on her face, as the princess keeps babbling on. She wanders out of town and runs into a certain stoney loner...

AN: next up, Zelgadiss!!!
