The World Out There

Hi, My name is Lily, not exactly your typical average girl. For one thing, I live in the forest with my single mom. I've never been allowed to go out of the forest for reasons unknown to me. From a very tender age, I'd been taught all sort of stuff, Etiquette, Politics, Geography, The art of the sword. Yup! You heard me right. The Art of the Sword. I have a tutor, Sir William, a young man in his early thirties. We had a pretty comfortable life, but sometimes I do wonder, what's outside the Forest? And why am I forbidden from going out there?
