*Present Time*
With a rifle leaning on her shoulder and a net full of dead rabbits hanging lazily in her right hand,Canssa trots through the gate atop her horse,Peenta. In the capital,Blindableu,it didn't have common blizzards like the smaller cities but flurries,for everyday in the Izariella Kingdom is a winter day.Large three story houses and mansions made from the snow itself were neatly placed into spirals.
Canssa waved at retired warriors and warriors that were around her age-mostly boys.
"Canssa!"One boy yelled,"How many rabbits did you kill!?"
Canssa smiled and held up the game proudly."Ten!"
More young warriors began to speak,but staring back at the castle,Canssa knew she could not spare any more time talking to her companions. She gave her horse, Peenta, a gentle pat,and knowing the command,he galloped towards the castle.As the two neared the castle,Peenta's gallop turned to a trot.When they got up the stairs and to the landing,Canssa dismounted her hoofed companion.
"Ah,Canssa,it's you,"the guard,Ibeth,said.
"Yes,it is I,"her look turned serious,"But now is not the time to talk, here..."She pulled out a folded sheet of paper from her fur cloak,and handed it to the gaurd."This is a copy of a map that will take you to our meeting location.I can't say the time the meeting will start,since I don't know how long the queens meeting will last,but I'd estimate an hour and a half at most."Canssa said,looking up at the highest part of the castle.
"Alright,I'll make sure gets there then."
Canssa nodded,"Thank you."She placed her hand on Peenta's nose and whispered,"I'll be back soon Peenta."
Canssa held the gaze of her horse a little longer before going throught the double doors and up the spital staircase.

*Knock,knock* "Come in,"the amused voice-the queens voice commanded.
Canssa opened another set of double doors and stepped inside the throne room.
The floor made of tiffany glass and ice.The cieling high above hung a silver chandelier.Two doors faced off on opposite sides.One room-Canssa assumed,led to her bedroom,the other she had no idea.Behind the throne was the enormous glass double doors that took the space of the entire wall.Behind those glass doors was the balcony and the entire kingdom below it
The people that faced Queen I'za turned to face Canssa instead,with faces of anger.The most notable face was her mothers,General O'sa...
"You are late CANSSA MARIE NANDEER!!"
Canssa flinched back,hearing her mother say her entire name spoke volumes on how furious she was with her.
"O'sa,did I permit you to speak."
O'sa bowed her head in shame,"No my queen."
"Now,sweet Canssa,be happy that I'm in a good mood,because Im1 going to be reunited with my daughter,very,very,soon.Come fourth now,so we may continue this meeting."
Canssa only felt anger at the sight of how the queen had treated her mother just moments ago;but she could keep it at bay,for she had a plan of her own,and it would soon be set into motion.
