1833
It was a sunny afternoon and the market was as busy as usual, princess Cressida being her normal self left the royal court without her mother's permission . A fight broke out and the market became chaotic.
"Princess Cressida we shouldn't be here" nelly her personal maid said."Nelly you really are no fun, let's just watch the fight for a while. I really think the tall lad is going to win". "Princess Cressida we have to leave before we get caught".
"The market men started making bets on the young lads."Everyone look, lord Alexander is here" a scrawny little boy said. Most people left the scene when they saw the lord and his men.
"Robert clean this mess up" lord Alexander said.The lord spotted Cressida among the crowd and made his way towards her."Oh no!! lord Alexander is here, Nelly what should we do?".
"Princess Cressida!"Alexander called out. Cressida tried to play her cards as usual "lord Alexander I didn't expect to see you here,how have u been? It's been a while since we've last seen each other".
"Princess Cressida you shouldn't be here, I really don't know how you keep slipping past the guards". " You've always been a rock that wouldn't even bug,well can you please keep this from mother because I can't take anymore nagging from her and can you quit whining and telling me what I should or should not do" Cressida said.
"There's nothing to keep because she sent me here to fetch you,the Queen needs your attention urgently". "what does mother have to say this time around? Nelly come along, let's go before she gets really angry ".
When Cressida and Nelly got to the palace, everywhere was oddly quite. There was no maid around the corner. "Nelly why is everywhere so quiet,this feels odd. Nelly get me some desert".
Cressida went to her mother's chamber, " Mother you sent for me" .The Queen kept on looking through the window. "Cressida where have you been,I thought I told you not to go out without any guard. The kingdom is not safe because not everyone is happy with your father".
I'm sorry mother,I didn't mean to make you get mad at me. Cressida fiddled with her fingers and the Queen kept staring outside. "Things are about to change Cressida and I want you to stay strong for me.
