In a small corner of his father's kingdom. Rarely visited and gone wild in the neglect. A cabin of a local wild that the prince stopped in only to escape the oncoming storm.
Fate plays strange hands.
There, he found the answer. The way to save the princess in the tower.
True love's kiss.
He wondered at the simplicity of it all.
