This is a rare sight. Everything inside this room is sophisticated. Makes me feel like I'm in some kind of palace.

The last thing I remember is falling from the bridge. Nope. I didn't try to take my life. I was convincing a high schooler not to jump. I was on my way from the University when I saw a girl in uniform standing on the edge of the rails.

She tried to sit down but she seemed to crack her spine.

Ouch! Is there anyone who can help me here? Was I rushed into an expensive-looking hospital? No way! I WON'T EVEN AFFORD TO PAY MY TUITION FEE THIS SEMESTER. I AM ON A STUDENT LOAN!

The door opened revealing an old woman on a maid get-up. "My lady. It seems that you are already up. I'd be calling the doctor", she said seemingly disappointed to see her with eyes open.

"Wait, I actually can't get up properly. Can you please help me?".

Her eyes widened as if I said something weird. Be it so that she's a nurse in maid clothing, it's her task to help a patient. Am I correct?

"My lady, please tell me if I am not giving you more pain", the old maid assisted her to sit down.

"Thank you".

I have some unusual feelings. It's already winter in my place but why does it feel so warm?

She starred to her side where the window was and saw that the sun is shining brightly. There are also birds chirping. "Why is it already spring? Did I sleep for too long?!", she panicked. Her adrenaline rush caused her to stand and run toward the glass window. She couldn't believe the unfamiliar place that surrounds the building.

She ran downstairs and saw that it doesn't look like a hospital. The corridor was designed with medieval decors and the place was carpeted. The maids and butlers were just mortified to see her running around the hall with her blue nightdress. She finally reached the main door and explored around. She reached the backyard.

"You're already awake, Elie. Did you have a good night's sleep?", his gentle voice caught the frantic lady's. This is one pretty-looking lad who's around 20.

Who is this pretty guy? Are we filming in the middle of somewhere?

She looked around for a camera, drone, or crew. There were none.

"Greetings to the future hope of Ardania. Forgive us, your highness. Lady Eleanor seems to hit her head during the fall", the old lady was able to catch up with some younger maids. The pretty lad removed his cape and placed it around the confused lady. "Don't go showing your body to everyone. You're only allowed to show it to the one you will marry", the blonde prince smiled.

Bath Area

Is this some kind of joke?

The doctor, wearing long robes and cloaks, confirmed that she might have lost some of her memories because of her fall. They didn't tell much but the fact that she was found at the foot of the cliff. It was actually a miracle that she survived.

She stared at her reflection in the mirror.

Wah~ this pretty lady took care of her skin.

But... Wait!!!

Is that actually me if I am wearing a blonde wig?! And also... Wow! These are pretty big blue orbs.

"Lady, we already arrange your carriage back to the main mansion. Your father said you'll be able to manage it on your own so we're just going to pack your things", the maid said with an uninterested tone.

Now, I thought maids were all so vibrant and obedient. What's with these people?

After the bath, the older maid dressed her up. "Lady Eleanor. I will be accompanying you back at the mansion. I will accept any punishment you have for me", Mari, the old maid who's already 57 bowed very low.

"Wah! Woah!!! I never wore something like this before. Is this a real clock watch? Why are you giving it to me? It seems like there's some real gold here. It's heavy", the girl exclaimed. Mari was startled.

"Lady... We need to get started", Mari shoved off the thought that the girl was actually acting weird. "What's your name?", she asked.

"I am called Mari", the old lady felt a little warm. She took care of the girl since she was a baby. In her 14 years of existence, this is the first time she asked for her name.

Carriage

"Woah! This is a real carriage. I only saw one when I watched a live Cinderella. The one with the mouse turned to horses", Eleanor chuckled. The old woman is worried already that she really went crazy.

"Do you know about that story?", Eleanor asked. "I'm afraid I haven't. Forgive me of my ignorance. If you wish, I will read of it", Mari shook her head politely. The girl flinched. She's been spurting nonsense. There's no way that an alternate world like this would know it. "No need to apologize", Eleanor waved her hands. "Was it something that you read in the royal library?", Mari saw how stiff Eleanor was. "Yes! Yes!", nodded.

Eh?! Royal library?!

Anyways, this is a hundred percent a dream so I'd just get along with it. I had these before, long dreams.

Eleanor narrated the story to Mari who just listened in silence smiling from time to time whenever there was an absurd turn out of events. Maybe it was actually a blessing in disguise for Eleanor to fall on that cliff. This way, she lost her memory and turned out to be a different person.

Varian's Mansion

All the maids and butlers are lined up in front of the main door. Eleanor was hesitant to head down. She said she'll go along with the dream she is having but it's way too realistic to believe that it is real.

"Welcome back, Lady Eleanor", they all greeted. Eleanor went down the carriage with a butler assisting her. She breathed in. "Yes. I'm back!", Eleanor bowed as well. She slapped herself. Mari and the rest were startled.

A lady doesn't bow to their subject. What did I just do with the history lessons I had?!

She raised her head and stood properly. "Oh. That fall was still painful to me so I just needed to exercise", she nervously laughed.

"You're back", Eleanor felt a terrifying aura and looked up. She saw an intimidating man walking down the stairs. "Duke, we already prepared your carriage", the butler bowed.

He looks so mad and so handsome.

"How can the Emperor call me at such a time like this? My daughter just came home. Ellie, I'd be talking to you this night. Forgive me for leaving so early", his expression softens,s and patted the girl's head.

The blonde went inside the other carriage and waved goodbye to Eleanor.

"Who was that?", Eleanor whispered to Mari.

"That is your father. Duke Charles Freid Silverstone- Varian", Mari answered.
