Not your princess
She was sleeping on a soft bed that was not her own. The soft light of day was streaming through a window and she thought she heard some birds when she started to wake up. Aridis finally opens her eyes and sits up. Her shoes had been taken off and set down on a thick bear skin rug and the room was being warmed by a fire. She gets up and begins to search the room. Even with the slight chill from winter the room was very comfortable for one of her bloodlines.

Aridis goes over everything she can see and frowns. This is not her grandfather's palace. This was not her parents home.

She has been kidnapped. Then it comes back to her and she is very angry. But she calms herself. Her brother and sisters will be here to save her as soon as they can.
