The False Princess

Once upon the longest of times ago, in that brink of time before all dragons die out, that time where dictators were everywhere and war was everyone's normal, there was an isolated castle with a king who never stepped foot outside. The man with the crown held a princess none has seen hidden in the castle and she stays in her bedchamber staring out the windows longing to leave. She sent letters out secretly, blown away to its final destination with the warm south-east wind as its messenger. Letters to anyone who would read, a distant but clear cry for help.

Many came and many left for the king held an arsenal of dragons with its biggest and strongest guarding the castle and the rest seemingly kept elsewhere.

In the afternoon on a fine summer day, where the kids were at the beach claiming sand castle territory, a young man in glasses and a cannon came to the castle aided by a man of great fatness and strength with the coolest beard you've ever seen. They marched up to the castle in sunglasses but no longer needed those sunglasses because the castle was just that dull.

parts of it had started to crumble and there was no color but the sad shades of grey, the grass around it was non-existent.

The guy with the glasses was named Ross and the other guy was called Kai. Kai got into the cannon and was shot out and he landed with a huff onto the dragon. Ross ran across the bridge and went into the castle while Kai distracted the fearsome dragon.

Inside the castle, Ross had to venture dining room to secret underground sock market but could not find a trace of the wonderful girl he was looking for... then, in the princess's bedchamber, he found out that there was no princess, it was all a lie. In fact, there was no one in the palace, it was all just a prank by the last surviving staff who died weeks ago.
