Ignoring me Sage picked me up and carried me through the crowd. When we arrived in front of the gates leading to a castle he let me down and held my hand to it.
"State your name to it so that I can verify that you are allowed beyond the gate." He stared at me from the corner of his eyes, waiting for me.
"Aurora?"
With a flash of light, the gate seemed to have scanned my hand and once confirming the acceptance of Sage's presence the gate opened up and kept my handprint.
"Let's go my future Queen." Sage's gentle smile and soft voice seemed to make me drowsy, as I tried to fight off the sleep a light kiss on my forehead from Sage and I was out.
I awoke in a strange room, laying in a bed that was twice the size of my twin size bed. The bedroom was decorated in ash gray cloths and black drapes.

"Milady may I please enter?"
Getting up in walked towards the door and there stood a man with puppies like ears and a fluffy white tail behind him.
"Milady you should still be in bed!" he frantically tried to guide me to the bed, "Heaven knows what his Majesty would do to me if he knew that you opened the door for such a lowly being like me!" After finally getting me into the bed he called in three girls, who seemed to be maids of some sort.
"Milady this here is Rose, Spring, and Sun. They are nymph type creatures. They will surely help you get used to everything in time for your coronation soon."
"What do you mean?" My face tightened into a puzzled look.
"Why Milady, the coronation to crown your new title."
"Title?"
"Yes Milady, the title of Queen."
