Anise jumped when she saw someone stand up and she shook like a leaf as he calmly called out to her. Was she alright? Of course not! She wasn't in her father's nice and cozy castle. Her home. "I'm not alright!" She cried. "I hurt. I'm dirty. I'm not in my Daddy's castle! Where's my maid? Lena!" She looked around as she called out. Still hoping this was just a bad dream and that she'd wake up. The last thing she remembered though wasn't going to sleep... She was going to meet her fiance for the first time. She remembered being excited for that, but now that excitement was uncertainty.

"I don't know how long I've been here. I just woke up." She finally looked at the tall man that had spoken kindly to her. She tried to stand up, but her legs shook so much that she fell back to her seated position. She tried again and succeeded out of her sheer pride and stubbornness. "I am Princess Anise Sinclair or Riverforde. You may call me, Your Highness, or Lady." She spoke with a slightly wavering voice, but there was no way she as royalty could show weakness to a commoner. She had to set an example.
