From the wreckage of a broken heart comes the promise of a new beginning, a new hope. The past year has seen a happiness come and gone, as if it had never happened at all, and an old hope die a final death. This southern paradise has turned into a wasteland of tears, an oasis in the desert…nothing more than a mirage…
How could a Princess have been so foolish as to trust her heart to the cold logic of a Scientist. He who watched the stars in the heavens so closely never cared half as much about the stars in her eyes. She thought she could run away into his imagination and make herself a home, but alas his home had no place for her. Just as quickly as he was fascinated by her isolation and innocence, the whimsicalness of her nature, he was distracted by his own rational, turning a deaf ear and a stone heart to anything she could offer him. Oh, Scientist, you were too intelligent for love…at least a love that didn’t seem to make sense…
Now in the ache of the afterglow…a new sunrise, a promise from the west, across the sea…a soldier on the horizon. This warrior possesses many princely qualities, but is still yet a knight without a crown. Perhaps it is that her whole life may have brought her to this moment, maybe he is meant to save her. Peering out from her tower high, she can almost see his ship, but it is days till his arrival. She hopes with a fear growing in the pit of her stomach that he will be what she needs, her last hope…and if not then she is lost, as is her kingdom.
