Bound

The room was dark. Though this was nothing new, anything surrounding the king was dark.

What is new, is the urgency in my father's voice.

"Find her." He all but growls at the captain in the room with us.

"We are trying, your majesty."

"I didn't ask, I said find her." The captain just nods.

"Yes, your majesty." He bows to the both of us before leaving the room quickly. My father turns to me, his robes dark and his crown sitting askew on his head.

"We will find her, don't worry."

I'm not worried, I want to shoot back, but I just nod my head and turn to leave the room, the door closing heavily behind me.
