Meeting the Princess

Despite my initial awe, I managed to compose myself and started to engage Princess Elara in conversation.

"Good day, Princess. It's a pleasure to finally meet you," I said, offering a formal bow.

"Likewise, Your Highness," she replied with a polite smile, her poise as regal as ever.

I couldn't help but notice a forced strain on her face as she uttered those words. It seemed like she was playing a role, which didn't sit well with me. Nevertheless, I pushed those thoughts aside and continued the conversation.

"I must say, the journey here was quite long for you. How did you find the trip?"

"Indeed, it was a journey of some length, but one must endure such inconveniences when dealing with important matters. Your kingdom is quite beautiful, by the way. The landscapes are quite picturesque," she replied, her tone softening slightly.

"I'm glad you appreciate it," I replied, trying to be polite. "Brizia is known for its natural beauty, and we take great pride in preserving it."
