  Your name is Katrina and you are the Elf Princess. You are 17, slender, have long dark brown hair that reaches your waist, and blue eyes. You are in your bedroom which has sapphire blue walls, multiple windows, a high wooden ceiling from the tree which your living quarters are in, and an ivory colored carpet. Your room is sectioned off from everyone else being that you ARE the princess. You live with your family in the biggest oak tree in the forest which is in the center.
  
  You go over to one of the windows facing the river that runs in your father's kingdom. Examining the current and the ways that the wind is blowing, you start to feel at peace. All of a sudden there is a hand on your shoulder, you spin around ready to strike but it is only your father, the King.
  
  "Katrina, it is time," he says. You nod your head understanding that he is speaking of the coming of age ceremony in which you are to look at all the suitors and pick one. You have dreaded this night for a long time but you follow him anyway.
  
  Your crimson dress flows around you like a curtain of blood as you walk to the gathering place where the celebration is being held. You walk and are greatful for the elegant red flats being as comfortable as they are.
  
  As you get there, you look into the room and see a lot of elvish people looking back. You acknowledge them and they go back to what they were doing. You look around the room spotting the food. Your father grabs you by the elbow and leads you to the front of the room where the thrones are and gives you a choice: you can either go dance with the suitors or you can eat your fill and wait for someone to come to you.
  
  [Author's Note: You are an Elf Princess who loses your kingdom to the Dark Order. Will you get your kingdom back or will you die trying? It is all up to you (and a little bit me).]
  
  > Dancing
  You nod at your father who turns to sit down on his throne made of roots. You head out to the dance floor and pick the closest suitor. You look up into the face of the dancing partner that you picked and smile politely. He smiles back. Then he speaks to you, "You look beautiful Princess Katrina." You laugh.
  
  "Oh please, not as beautiful as my mother does tonight," you say acknowledging your mother who is sitting beside your father and wearing a deep green that made her throne look like a living tree.
  
  "No," he says agreeing, "you have your own beauty that makes you even more beautiful than your mother."
  
  "Thank you, but I couldn't say that I can agree with that," you say in reply. You nod as the song ends not even catching the gentleman's name. You shrug it off. You look for another partner and you spot a handsome gentleman standing off from the rest of the celebration but you also notice your best friend William watching you.
  
  > Mysterious gentleman
  You start to make your way to the mysterious gentleman by the window. You weave through dancing people and eventually make it over to where the stranger is standing. He gives you a side glance with a raised eyebrow.
  
  "Good evening! Are you enjoying yourself?" You ask the gentleman.
  
  "I guess, and you Princess?" He asks in return.
  
  "I am. Since you know who I am, you should tell me your name," you inquire.
  
  He smirks but answers you, "My name is Ash."
  
  "Nice name. What brings you here?" you question him wondering if it was the food or something else.
  
  "To be honest, it was the anticipation of meeting the princess because I wanted to see if the rumors were true."
  
  "What rumors?"
  
  "The rumors saying that you are the most beautiful girl in all of Eden." He says with a smirk.
  
  "And..." you push.
  
  "They are mostly true," He says.
  
  "Mostly?" You question raising your eyebrows.
  
  "Yep, there is only one woman more beautiful, and that is my mother. Although since she isn't with us anymore I guess that makes the rumors true." He replies.
  
  "I'm sorry to hear that," you say sympathetically. He just shrugs as he goes over to the food table.
  
  > Follow
  You follow Ash with a sort of curiosity so you go sit by Ash who glances at you but turns back to his food.
  
  "Do you want to go on a walk? I want to know more about you." You say to him spontaneously.
  
  "Sure, but after I am done eating." He replied to you and you nod in agreement. You sit there eating and thinking about what you would want to know about him, all of a sudden you get nervous because you think that maybe he doesn't want you to pester him
  
  > go on a walk with him
  When he is done with his plate of food you ask, "do you still want to go for a walk?" He looks over to you with a look of surprise as if he wasn't expecting you to still be there. But you give him an expectant look. He shrugs his shoulders as if he couldn't care less but he follows you out the door into the hallway anyway. He walks quietly next you glancing one way and then another. You look at his face trying to read it but you get nothing. You try to think of something to ask him.
  
  Finally you come up with a question to ask him, "How did your mother die?" Admittedly it isn't a good question and it is probably a sensitive topic. You turn a corner to go outside towards the river. You don't think he is going to answer you, but when your reach the river he replies.
  
  "She was murdered when I was a little boy. My father was never around so I ended up raising myself pretty much." You quietly think about his answer. All of a sudden your best friend William comes out from behind a tree and stands in between you and Ash. You look up at William with a questioning glance.
  
  "What are you doing, what is going on?" You ask William.
  
  "What are you doing with him?" He asks you.
  
  "I was just talking with him." You state.
  
  "I was just talking with him. Yeah right!" He says slightly loud.
  
  "Dude! What is up with you?" You say right back,
  
  "You don't know him. You know know who he is or what he has done or anything. You shouldn't be around him." He says grabbing your arms kinda hard.
  
  "Ow! Let go of me. You are not the boss of me! I am my own person, you don't need to be telling me what to do!" You say with anger in your voice. William lets go of your arms. You look around for Ash but he seems to have disappeared. All of a sudden there are screams coming from the gathering place.
  
  > stay Where You Are
  You decide to stay where you are. All of a sudden you are surrounded by people in dark clothing with bows and arrows ready to shoot. You try to think of something but aren't fast enough and they shoot an arrow into William's heart. As you go to catch him before he falls an arrow suddenly protrudes from the center of your chest and you fall on top of William dead.
