"Hhhhhhh", the breath of princess Artha huffled, she tried not to make a sound.
Fortunately, he jumped before the train he was riding rolled down a very deep abyss below.
Princess Artha's hand now only held on to the protruding tree root on the side of the ravine, while her body hung beneath it.
He listened intently until the sound of the horse-footed thugs could no longer be heard.
He was still very grateful that the thugs did not check to the edge of the cliff. But looking at her current state, princess Artha was unsure as to when her hands would be able to hold her body up.
"Oh, god what should I do" said Princess Artha as she began sobbing.
"Dad, mother, what should I do this time. Is this the end of my life?hyks!" smirking again.
After a long while, his hands began to feel numb, he had already tried to push his body up, but it was all in vain.
"Shall I try to scream?" he thought, although he was not sure there would be people around there passing by considering this gorge was at the end of the forest that people rarely come to.
"There's no other way, I'd better try" he thought.
"Tolooong... Please, is anyone there?" yell at her .
There was no sahutan at all just the sound of forest birds and the roar of river water flowing under the ravine that he could hear .
That made Princess Artha even more desperate. While crying he kept shouting, hoping that someone would listen to him and help him.
"Please... tolooong!! please whoever's there, help me, I can't take it anymore.
"Hiks.hiks!!"
His screams were heart-wrenching.
Princess Artha lowered her head she felt that there was no hope for her anymore, she stared at the rushing river water below her.
"Dad, mother, I'm sorry I couldn't save Pulchara kingdom, sorry I can't be a dutiful princess,hiks!!" his voice sounded very sad.
Princess Artha closed her eyes, she was already at the limit of her ability to endure.
"Sets..!"
Suddenly a hand pulled his hand up.
"Hold my hand tight!!" order the man who wears a hood and cover his face, so that only his eyes are blue sea-colored only visible.
Princess Artha thought for a moment who that person was.
"Trust me I just want to save you" she said as if knowing what Princess Artha was thinking.
Without lingering princess Artha immediately held tightly to the man's sturdy hand, his body began to rise to the top of the cliff and after reaching the top, he immediately poured down his stiff body since then, his body began to rise, suddenly his head felt dizzy and vision became blurred and then fainted.
Princess Artha worked her eyes, she was watching her surroundings.
"Where am I?" he thought, there was a simple bed, a small ornamental table, an old wooden cabinet and a little other furniture.
"Aaaa.have woken up, he's awake!!" shouted a young girl who was almost her age from the front door of the room.
"Si..who are you?" princess Artha asked confused and scared, since the incident this morning princess Artha could not trust anyone directly.She immediately sat down and held tightly to the pillow on her chest.
"Don't be afraid princess, we didn't mean to be mean to you", said a simple yet very neat-looking middle-aged woman who walked into the room.
"Did you introduce my princess Miss Bronson, head nanny at the Mother's love house" Ms Bronson said, bowing.
"So a wandering man brought the noble one here, he said that you are the daughter of Artha and I must take you to the royal palace of Magna as soon as you are awake" Ms Bronson explained.
"Was the man wearing a headscarf and a face covering?" ask princess Artha curiously.
"Yes, your highness" replied Miss Bronson.
"But the clothes look too expensive for a wanderer!" thought princess Artha.
"Sorry princess Artha, the sun will soon set, we must take you to the palace" said Miss Bronson.
There was a sense of reluctance to go to the Magna royal palace after what was in his realm earlier but he had no other choice at the moment.
end flashback.
In the royal palace of Magna princess Artha was being examined and given medicine by the court physician.
"How is Artha's daughter, Mr Recliff?".asked the queen Elizabeth, who was waiting in the room.
"Daughter Artha's current condition is not too severe just a few scratches on her body and I have given her medicine" he said.
"It's just that the princess has had a lot of rest for these few days, because of the fatigue and trauma she's been through" Mr. Recliff explained .
"Thank God, thank you, Mr. Recliff" Queen Elizabeth said.
"Braaac!"
Room door in forced demolition.
"Your Majesty, please don't come in!" said a lady-in-waiting guarding the door of the room while chasing after the prince Adrian who barged into the room.
"Surge!!" he said, the lady couldn't do anything. Empress Elizabeth signaled the lady to let Prince Adrian in.
"Artha, what's going on? which part was injured?" prince Adrian sounded very worried.
She approached the bed of princess Artha while clasping her hands.
"I'm fine Adrian, you don't have to worry" said Princess Artha while releasing her hands from the grasp of prince Adrian, she felt awkward in such treatment especially in front of many people.
"Alright Mr. Recliff you can go now" Queen Elizabeth said.
Mr. Recliff withdrew from the room.
"Adrian, Artha's daughter was only scratched in some parts of her body, and has been given medicine by Mr. Recliff" said the Queen Elizabeth .
"Now let princess Artha rest, because she needs a lot of rest for now" he continued.
"But, I just want to reassure Artha, let me wait here for a while" replied the prince Adrian.
Queen Elizabeth did not like what Prince Adrian said.
"Princess Artha will be guarded by Ara's palace ladies and mother can make sure she will be fine" exclaimed the empress Elizabeth firmly with her eyes fixed on the prince Adrian.
"Would you get out Adrian, I'm very melted at the moment" said princess Artha, she knew what Queen Elizabeth meant and she felt uncomfortable when Prince Adrian was waiting in her room.
"Well then, I will come out.You rest" said the prince Adrian with a smile, he passed with the Queen Elizabeth.
"Adrian, I hope you can take care of your behavior, even if you're friends with Artha's daughter, but she's your sister's future wife!" empress Elizabeth said as they left princess Artha's room.
"You understand what I mean Adrian!" added again.
Prince Adrian just froze, he stopped following his mother, he just looked at the mother's back that was getting away.
