Μy dεar,

Ι remember the stories you would tell me, the lessons you've learned from your past, your decades of the ruling. I never forgot the words I had taken for granted when I was younger. Your words echoed in mind head as if in the castle walls. Your words that had rung from daylight to daybreak, "Don't trust people until you learn what they did to stay alive." Well, you were right. Afterall, you were right. You learned from the past. Even after everything you did before you became king, you didn't continue to make the same mistakes; instead, you learned from it and proceeded to teach your granddaughter, me, everything you learned. A lesson on how to use a strategic mind. The Art of War. Fighting is not always used to cause suffering but as a gift to provide good rulership. That there is no use for a dictated rule, like King Athen. That's why I will be called your daughter from this day forward.

I will never expect my father. His head is filled with his ego rather than the right way of wisdom. King Athen lacked the needed knowledge as a ruler over the land. I will be different when my time comes. I must say, "I thank you, Father. Whose always there for me." And I know I write these letters quite often. My only friends are those I trust, which is actually quite a little bit. Yes, they find it weird because they can't meet you. "You can't meet someone returned to dust in the grave." But writing this letter helps me know what you would say back with your wise words to help me in great trials. I am supposed to be a princess, but you always said I acted more like my mother, your daughter, a true fighter for who she indeed was.

I was forced to agree on an arranged endogamous marriage to Prince Hawksley, and yes...I still hate his guts. I shall put what you taught me as your daughter to good use. I will fix the mess my "King" has made to this kingdom, this land. His rulership. I will follow along with what you've wanted to correct for our perishing people. Although, I have to go against something you had taught. Afterall, you've also told me to do what I know is right because I have a sense of justice...well, "Don't forgive me for what I had done in the past, but instead my Father. Forgive for what I shall do." I love you, Father.
