You jerked awake at the sudden bump of the carriage, it was morning now. Youโd been traveling day and night, going to start your new life in the kingdom, away from the countryside of your home, to the liveliness of festivals and big life
You neared the village, seeing the royal castle seated upon the hill looking over the big town. It was bustling, banners being hung, stands being prepared, seems like a festival would be happening soon-
The carriage bumped and jerked a bit as it went through crowds of people walking through the dirt roads, the horses neighed and finally you came to a stop, the coachman walking to the door and opening it.
โHere you are Madamโ he said, holding out a hand to help you out โIโll retrieve your baggage here in a moment.โ
