A Royal Affair
Intro- I am going to miss you so much.
The Kingdom of Eldoria was once a beautiful place until a man named King Arthur ascended to the throne. Ever since then, the Kingdom was no longer a peaceful harmonious place. Arthur stole from the people and derived them of their living necessities. He caused so much death and there was nothing anyone in the Kingdom could do to stop him. The Kingdom was different for the King's ministers or those directly under the king, their family thrived while the rest of us had to suffer to get a single meal a day
Bella

I say as I run down the stairs
Brittany

Bella

Bella smiles faintly but happily
Brittany

Bella
Oh yes, the little princess's nanny. It's not much, all you have to do is take good care of her.
Brittany

She says as she leads her mum to get some rest.
Brittany's mum goes to her room to check on her.
