Elena's room soon began to feel like a prison, so she decided to go out. She didn't inform anyone of her plans and went only with Irene and a warrior.
The afternoon was bright…the clouds were clear, the birds were chirping, and butterflies fluttered by, their wings flapping happily. It was one of those wonderfully sunny afternoons.
"My Queen, are you sure you don't want me to tell the King where you're going?" The warrior asked as he helped Elena into the car.
"No." Elena simply replied.
"So, where are we going, Elena?" Irene chipped in happily, giggling like a kid ready for an adventure. Except deep down, she hated that she was going outside.
"Let's head to the town's market. I heard there are so many great things there." Elena replied and Irene cried inwardly.
"My Queen, are you sure? That place is usually crowded and one can usually get lost there. Why not bring more warriors or maybe just go to an expensive supermarket?"
