A few weeks passed by until it finally Elise's birthday came. In the past, Elise would be greeted by her father and grandmother when she woke up. The whole kingdom of Myreen would celebrate this wonderful day by spending it in festivities.
Of course, it was not fun for everyone.
There were others who gossiped on that day and didn't think it was a proper day to celebrate.
It was also the same day where Elise overheard that her mother died on the same exact day. King Alexander tried to not let Elise know about it until she was of proper age and could understand what death truly meant.
After Elise realized that her birthday was the same day as her mother died, she realized how much love her father and grandmother had for her. King Alexander could have spent the entire day grieving his late wife, but the man instead threw a celebration for Elise.
This was something that made Elise become grateful for her birthdays and she treated it more respectfully.
