The Tower Window

You press your nose to the cold tower glass as the very last star above Aurelia flickers — then vanishes. The sky is empty. Below, the kingdom sits frozen in fear, waiting for some brave knight to ride in and save them.

But you are done waiting. You are Princess Mira, and you have a plan. You stuff a lantern, a coil of rope, and three honey cakes into your satchel, lace up your sturdiest boots, and grin into the dark. Tonight, the rescuer is you.
