I never heard the Goddess since then, just how busy is she? Sometimes I would try to be the one to start the conversation but I get nothing. I am almost 8 years old now, not even a week to go! I cannot wait until I gain the chance to use magic, as well as my second wish. My mother would occasionally showcase her magic in order to prep me on what I am about to witness from myself. I did not like it when she did this, because it made me extremely jealous. I realized I never actually stepped into town as well, the only place I have been other then my castle, is the backyard garden, with would comprise of 2 layers, the garden itself, being beautifully decorated with flowers and arrangements, then the second layer, being a forest. But in the front of the house, layed the town, feeling as though I have been missing out, I decide to leave for town to explore the place my father owns and manages. But before I could do that, I change into clothes that wouldn’t make me stand out as much, which was honestly hard to find, for some reason this made me feel like i’m taking the fact that I am living as a rich noble for granted.

I step out the front door, and walk back in. I just realized that I needed to get past the guards that protected the castle, they would obviously not want me to go out to town alone. I take a walk around the castle, acting like an innocent child exploring the huge castle, but I am actually planning out my escape from this prison, I need to found out the easiest way to get out, with the least guards and the least obstacles. After circling the castle multiple times, until even the guards were confused as to what I was doing, I finally came to a conclusion. There is no way in hell I will be able to get out of this place. Not only was it heavily and overly guarded, but the castle had multiple layers of metal and stone walls that protected the castle from completely all sides. However, it came to my mind that the garden was barley guarded, especially the forest, but the walls were still a problem.

I go to check out the end of the forest until I get to the wall, there is one single door embedded into the stone wall available, and one guard. I need to find a way to distract the guard, but I couldn't show myself, if I were to make myself seen by the guard, and try to get him to go away verbally, like telling him my father needed to speak with him, they would realise I would have gone outside the castle grounds if I disappear, since I was last seen by the door. But if they never saw me in the first place, they would think i'm somewhere in the castle grounds, and since this place is massive and maze-like, they would just think i'm somewhere and probably not care, as long as im technically within their reach. I try out the first thing that came to my mind, I take a rock and throw it far away from the guard, enough for him to have to walk a long way, but also enough for him to hear it, it seems to have worked, he heard the noise, and curious about what it was, he left to check it out. Once he was a bit far enough, I run with my tippy toes towards the door, crank it open, to find that it’s locked.

“Shit!”, I thought to myself. I really couldn’t think of any other way, so I gave up, probably too quickly, I walked up to the guard, he was surprised to see me.

“Hey, mind if I explore the other half of the forest? I have already seen everything there has to be seen in this side.”, I gave him a look as if I was a cat in tears, he looked at my, and looked away while scratching the back of his neck.

“Sorry young master, thats something I cannot do, you can go ask your father for permission”, I give him a disgusting look started to walk back to the castle, but stopped.

“Oh I almost forgot, my father needed you for something, that was the main reason I came.”, his eyes turned wide, and he started to sweat, after a few seconds of letting him think, he left towards the castle, he passed by me and took off. I stand there, looking at him, then I look at what's in my hand, a key. One that I just took from the guards belt. This forced me to make the smile of a villain. I turn my head and continue to ‘explore the other side of the forest’.
