Keira stared outside the large glass windows which had pearlescent shells that refelcted the light, creating a golden hue. Her mind felt heavy and lethargic.
"Princess, the Emperor has summoned you to the feast tonight." The head maid informed.
Keira understood what it ment. After all, she had been adopted in order to be chosen as the Azure Dragon's bethroled. She had been sacrificed for this purpose.
Her face had a condescending glow, her eyes held down and her lips turned down as she gave a nod to the maid and signaled to be left alone.
It had been sometime since she had been adopted. I wonder if it even rained. Especially when even the river of the heaven is dry. Keira was lost in her own world when she suddenly felt an obnoxious sound of something shaking.
"Eh? What was that?" Keira muttered, standing immediately upon hearing the sound. Startled she walked towards the window and gazed down. The tall grass underneath started to shake once again!
