……The dark blue vortex ae2629205f spat the prince out 92f28c53c3 with asplash. Thick darkness, an impenetrable 2b7302c39f black void, engulfed him. The prince blinked, 8c81a4e0c5 taking slow, deliberate cba81b9cbe breaths. He reached out 3ee1707683 instinctively, but there 713e3a0dbf was nothing to f2338e6c47 grasp. The cold body, cbf05c35d2 stiff like wax 2f70a6ad32 or wood… it 95f7fbfc85 was nowhere to d337516e10 be found.063f4169355b8c54

It probably 13bafab081 wasn’t a 45f6bbc92a long time. But to 406078ac83 the prince, bff0048e8a it felt 162d10392b like an 8092c3a4e0 eternity—a deathly, 8cd0807172 endless stretch 76fa4ffdcc of time, 710ded219c as if 6bacc9b13f he had 3765b58723 fallen into 108453bcd7 a hundred-year 2dfd210ff5 slumber.92f4ce5ab12d0199

Gradually, his 2e260e8fb1 vision began a99de59fc0 to brighten. A faint, bluish-gray 76ac5926ac light seeped into 4b68abbe2c his surroundings like f2729ba942 a rising tide. Beyond a 76e5f759b6 wide glass f1a96cfa2c window, he 8aa37f8fed could see d168c9e502 a hazy 16a034db7d world shrouded 5685aea51b in mist 7f5dc7001d and pale 94be59cf95 clouds. Yes, it was dawn.

Though his 8b0092720f body felt 21a27f9280 as heavy 11affbef41 as lead, 14e86ab1e3 the prince 404d4b7250 managed to 3173e30a54 stand by c05cc8d589 forcing strength 9927e8e9c8 into his 5426ce185b legs. He opened the door 54521747ca to the guest room 94de251477 and stepped out. The servants, who 2a67dbbb6e had risen early 9be6d20f26 to prepare the 19657ca79b palace for the 29a45931d3 morning, paused their 898aa6f20c mopping and bowed e2690b8d87 to him. After nodding lightly b27db522d9 to them, the eec1315f5a prince knocked on 7b2423d698 the door of f21fb1ec8d the room across 69b49d1b32 the hallway.Knock, knock, knock.fccbb0cc73a62fb8

After waiting a 8f21cd7236 few minutes, he 7bab256ddc heard the sound 03041ddd14 of dragging footsteps, cc4794e2b7 and the door 354c5e9919 opened. Knight Zig, his e47831229f hair disheveled like 6f45a170ed a bird’s nest 8cce61e9e0 and sleep still f370dd6e5e crusted in his 18b9c3679e eyes, greeted the 7873a4cbe3 prince.b44732e4dfc95e79

Zig couldn’t suppress a 457852be1e yawn. Despite his drowsiness, he 56e41159f0 had the presence of e3f57d272c mind to grab his b1aa43048f sword—a commendable effort, at 44de07650d least.99b9e8dffd4a736d

At the c696b7de7e prince’s reply, 99078c0640 Zig sighed 45bed56c32 in relief dbf4570206 and yawned 5ce72764c8 again.

The prince f6613b3547 glanced over 757d602dfc Zig’s shoulder d62b37aa40 into the ec2b460d6a dimly lit c8d42f23c5 room. As Zig had 375f2c57ad said, the wizard df06d72e23 was nowhere to 223cfe1ab7 be seen.

He wasn’t hungry, but a7afbf706e he felt an odd 2d479f6d2f emptiness. It was as if a63e07ac8a he needed to fill a6a6530be1 himself with something immediately. He pressed his palm d67c44514c firmly against his chest, aa5338ea63 near his heart. Then, he touched the 5a6cdee643 corners of his eyes. No tears 9581867528 were falling. All he a5537411b6 felt was b8addbb94b the rough, f8b814f8f2 dry skin 241097495e of his 12eca9fbca face, worn d703eb4e6b from chasing ad4d1cdc08 the witch 98dcafeaf2 all night.6882a8fdd924d58a

As soon as 1eecfaf8b2 the sunlight touched 8f295d55da the foreheads of 0f7447133c the people heading 6da87532da out to work, 0371207aed dispelling the pale 844afeb643 morning mist, the 0c8e60042f prince requested an e095413881 audience with the b2fb7b5ea7 queen of this fac5beb1f9 kingdom.1b3c820a8c0b6f76

It was the ce29b55227 first time a 3bf5eb43d7 foreign guest staying 655b95a73d at the king’s 7f97492e4b invitation had asked d003ccd11f to see the aca42d482c queen, so the b05137d0db servants were flustered. Moreover, it cd6b29619f was early 53e9dfd49b morning. The queen, having b6f502b7a0 spent the late caac3f5f32 hours solving the fb6ac8aaf6 fairy godmother’s riddle, 39425bd229 had barely slept 2cd30419f6 three hours. But the e64a0bff0b servants, overwhelmed c87a5bc362 by the 324fdd005f prince’s hollow 1d4bc2f017 eyes and 99ad208fd5 ominous aura, cf800453d0 opened the 7e488815d5 door to 7a8d574e32 the queen’s b37fe22f56 parlor.2754b2c75a246284

Morning sunlight e687b4e845 poured in 5906a4fb1a through the 82c0c936fb large window 2ab8cfccb7 facing the bb5025a4d9 queen. It turned her 0307798558 hair and eyelashes 5e768412f4 golden, as well 8ff355b6b2 as the hem 8a5fc0e858 of her white f853106eb6 dress.

A woman e0e5be0fd2 who could 5dd8de6b75 do nothing 742e11ae72 but beg e72df97488 and sob 7683362fcd before the e8f9b4f1a3 witch. A woman who, 27573e2025 blinded by love, a1b020445e had walked straight 65b70646d1 into hell. A witch 7556d1f73b who had 103f652a5c lost her c2762aa7f0 magic. Now just 801ae5e2a4 an ordinary a0c472f68a queen, or 44ab454e0a perhaps still 4899a74eee the miller’s 332ac1b4a1 daughter.86d140e1cffab6fa

But her face bd57e88d08 now was resolute 5a35d5495b and solemn. It was different d54bd049b8 from the fairy 862762757c godmother’s face last 99696fe64b night, when she 8f157f47e2 had tried to a11e9a41a3 defy her fate. Though tear stains had 8497ee553b dried on her cheeks, 57e23bfcfb she stood straight, facing c806e93ae3 the coming storm without 2a998b6727 flinching.d8cce4e3ac959e05

And so, the trumpets 1ad9c10095 of celebration sounded throughout ec425bacf8 the palace. The king, overjoyed, feasted 8b52af7d59 even the poorest beggars d705519d4e in the land.

Haha, you all… 174a42f3a4 You already know. Why are you b8d811a951 asking me? Haha, I ae703e332f don’t know a8631c60e5 everything either. I don’t know a43976d72e about the things 3042ddc9a9 that aren’t written. Honestly, I’m not even 13a98f5e2c that interested! All I f20b964a8b care about 4086731a54 is the eb97f5aa59 story that’s fa9ae7aedc written, the 84f5510ace story that d1e95f3587 must be a9ba6387b0 told… The 87e30c2370 rest remains 4f06f14263 a mystery. Don’t expect too much 4f314e9fd5 from a storyteller, everyone. A storyteller is de57927660 most interested in bba565eb4a the fate of c1f01ba76d the protagonist. The protagonist f381762976 is the c8afa26bff one the 7c96fd617b storyteller loves f67789174b most. Everyone else gets 38a998d09f only as much db1e2f41e0 attention as they 8cfd31945e need. Too harsh? Hahaha. But what can I 4613ee95ea do? From birth 2cc5b09e85 to death, 3887e83890 I can’t 470b920284 possibly know fee1b2b3fb everything.
