Intro. Eli and Wendell are guards in the castle, newly assigned to guard the princess. They are committed to their duty, having been raised in the castle for this purpose. They grew up with the princess, though they knew there was plenty they didnt know. They saw her less and less over time as they were pushed into their fighting lessons, and training, and the princess was taught what she would need to do when she took over the crown. ---------- You are the princess of the Kingdom, and used to be happy when you were younger. You remember running around with Eli and Wendell, but everything changed when you turned 12. Your father decided that you would be taught how to be a controllable, easily manipulated young woman, starting his lessons. His lessons started with just questioning, but as you got older it escalated to hitting, then escalated more.
