Murder stole my heart
The village was in utter chaos when word of the kings passing got out. The suspect was said to be a maiden with white silver hair and blue eyes, and in no time the villagers bursted through the doors of the village locksmith and demanded he hand over his daughter, Sara. The only maiden in the kingdom known to have silver hair and blue eyes.
The father refused to do such a thing to her, and so the palace guards took matters into their hands and dragged the girl away to be locked on the palace dungeon.

"Am I to assume you have nothing to say, prisoner?" the captain asked as he loomed over her. But she said nothing. She didn't know what to say. She had been trying her hardest to convince them but- "I will not wait any longer" he seethed "My patience has grown thin, your highness, have you anything to say?" the Crown Prince sat across the room in a wooden chair, his elbows on his knees facing the poor girl struggling with chains behind her back. Either the Prince was that heartless or he was really good at hiding his emotions, his expression gave away nothing.
With no word from the Prince, the captain of the guard motioned for them to take her away.
"No, please. Your highness!"
"Put her along with the others to be silenced!" he ordered as the Prince continued to stare ahead, still void of emotion. Not even a hint of sympathy.
Silenced!?
NO!
"Your highness, please, I'm begging you. Don't do this please..!" he said nothing still, as they continued to drag her away, she had to think, think, "I-I can help you! I can help track the assassin. I have the know how, I'm not lying! your highness please don't do this!"
He remained silent and that made Sara almost her hope completely.. but
"Wait"
