It wasn't that he had never seen the wilderness before. It wasn't as if he didn't know what nature looked like. It was simply he did not know how harsh and brutal the outdoors were. In the palace, there were paintings. In fact, in his culture, nature was one of the most important aspects of daily life. It was due to the fact the gods handcrafted everything in nature. As such, their creations held inspiration for the country's citizens.
But now, nature was only the young heir's enemy. Ivory was a young man of fifteen, and the first heir to royal family. He was known far and wide for his looks and respect. All in all, Ivory was the ideal ruler. Unfortunately, it appeared the gods did not agree. About two weeks ago, he had been cursed by the gods, so a thick black mist of death surrounded him, killing anyone that got near. He had wanted to stay in the palace, but he wouldn't be able to get near anyone.
Eventually, Ivory came to the conclusion the only way for him to live was alone in the wilderness. It soon became apparent that only humans were affected by the mist. He had even been attacked by a small passel of boar.
Ivory may have had a few scratches from his encounter with the boars, but it was still easy to see why he had many royal suitors. His color was a very light beige or ivory, his namesake. It was fairly short, but was long enough for him to brush and take care of it properly. It usually had a neat, yet windswept look.
Like most royalty, Ivory's skin was lighter than the average persons'. However, since the kingdom was very hot, he had a slight tan. The robes he wore were a little tattered, and his dark eyes were tired and filled with exhaustion. He was walking in a forest of some kind. The trees were far apart, but no path was there to help him find his way. The trees had few branches, and were very tall. Ivory didn't even that his shoes were getting scuffed by the dirt. He exhaled deeply. He was just so... tired. His legs felt like lead, and he decided to stop walking. Ivory didn't place his hand on a tree trunk he had learned trunks were rough, and his hands were soft.
Suddenly, the heir felt his eyes slip shut and he passed out from exhaustion. When you go from being royalty to being a vagabond, you're bound to have withdrawal.
