ONE MONTH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't believe I've been here for ONE MONTH and not a SINGLE opportunity to escape with. These Dark Riders are much better at this than I can bring myself to believe. Everywhere I go there are guards. I can't get any privacy. Nothing.
Curse them. True their land is beautiful. No one in England would believe that the Dark Riders have headquarters in the caves of a waterfall. It may be nice to waking up to the sound of water rushing, but Spanish is much harder to learn then I thought. Luckily Sophia is here. Otherwise I would have lost my mind long ago.
At least they let me visit the nearby fort every week, though guards come with me of course. The peasants seem to know that the Dark Riders live at the waterfall, though none of them are foolish enough to wander in. The nobles seem to just overlook the facts, so much like Prince John. The performers are better here than back at Nottingham. That may be because I'm too used to the jugglers back home.
Oh Father, it's been a month. Are you looking for me? No one here haven't told me anything about you. They seem to want for me to forget about England. Fat chance. I would give anything to be back. Today more than ever. I just met their king. I thought he would be like Philip was, young and bold. Instead, I faced a middle-aged man with two previous wives. According to what Sophia told me, his first wife was a born Dark Rider. She died giving birth to her first child, who later died from an illness. The second wife was her sister, who was killed because she was sleeping with another man. Both those women were fighters, like me. They were both skilled at swords, but no unmarried woman was left that could be a suitable wife. So they found me. They think I will make a good queen after all the training I've been though.
I confess that I stayed this long not because I couldn't find a way to leave but because maybe, deep down, I wanted to know what the King was like. But now I know I'm leaving. One way or another. Father, I'm coming home.
