252 Deep thought

The next morning when princess Ellen woke up, the prince was gone and since his spot was already cold she knew it must be a long time. She looked around the room before getting up. Just then there was a knock on her door and it was pulled open.

Princess Ellen could tell that the person at the door was Grater since she was already used to the way she knocked. 

"My princess," Grater bowed a little. Princess Ellen smiled. "Did you see the prince this morning?" princess Ellen asked. She wanted to find out where he was.

"No your highness, the prince left very early. He went with Jeffery," Grater reported what she knew. Since they were in Bozoa, Grater always go first to look for Jeffrey.
