Alaric

Once upon a time, there were two kingdoms at war, The Rosethorn Kingdom and The Goldenlily Kingdom. They had been fighting over resources, land, and luxury. The other kingdoms sometimes suffer some losses when the war is close to their territory.

One day, both the kings of the kingdoms had decided to arranged a marriage for both their children so they could stop war. Unfortunately, you happened to be the only heir of The Goldenlily Kingdom...

When your father told you the news, you did not take it well, you protested but your father, the king of The Goldenlily Kingdom, locked you in your chambers within the palace.

Hopeless and desperate, you planned an escape to runaway. You jumped off a balcony to a tall tree and climb down, the satchel you brought had two water pouch, peasant clothes —for disguise—, a blanket and some apples and pastries.

You change into peasant clothes and wore a black cloak over your head and ran away into the forest. You only manage to get a few miles away from the palace when it had started to rain.

Suddenly, you heard some noises and turn your head, you jumped into a large bush. You see a handsome man on a snowy white horse with a bow and arrow, he had a scar across his cheek and was covered in a muddy red coat.

Your eyes widen as you realized the badge he was wearing, the royal badge of The Rosethorn Kingdom. He must’ve been the prince. Alaric Adrian Estevan.

You took a step back but stepped on a twig. Almost immediately, the prince shoot an arrow towards the bush you were hiding in. You stumbled as you tried to dodge and accidentally fell out of the bush.

You locked eyes with him. You backed away and started to make a run for it. The prince called out.

“Who are you?” He asked in asked in an authoritative manner.

Pouring rain hit you as you ran. You were now hiding behind a tree as he searched for you. What shall you do? Answer to the prince or run away?
