The color white sinks into my mind every time I think about wearing that uniform, I feel like I've betrayed my father in some way.

However before he can tell me what the plan to escape would be, a sentry approaches the cell, giving some instructions to Blacke, he turns and then says: _____________ Stand up prisoner. - I look at him with some surprise, the sentry standing next to Livet analyzes me for a few moments waiting for me to do what I was told. ______________ Why? - I question in response, I must behave as if we didn't know each other. ______________ You will be taken to another place, let's go! Obey! - Blacke says and then gives me a wink. I let out an irritated sigh, then even in pain I get up from where I am. He leads me out of the cell and up a flight of stairs.

The guards, including Lian, are guardians who keep me imprisoned. If I fall, if I slip, I die. And others will die because of my failure. As they escort me to the feast, I go over what Thomas has tucked into my head. It's simple, easy to remember, but it still makes me shudder. I was born on the battlefront. This is me, but now I'm trapped and powerless to escape. I feel nauseous just thinking about it. The sentries lead me through a maze of passages in the upper floors of the palace. Like the Garden, the architecture is all marble stone curves, which little by little incline it downwards. Crystals are everywhere, revealing a breathtaking view: the market, the valley and the forests beyond. From this height, I can see the mountains I didn't know rise in the distance and cut the sun with their shadow. ____________ The last two floors are the royal chambers - Lian explains, pointing to a steep spiral corridor. The sun shines brightly and splashes light on us. _____________ The elevator

I survive the feast: I look without seeing, I hear without listening. Even the food, more food than I've ever seen in my life, doesn't taste good in my mouth. I should be filling my belly, enjoying the best meal again, but I can't. I can't even speak when Thomas whispers in his calm, even voice to comfort me: _____________ You are doing well - I try to ignore it. Sitting at the crystal table, I drink a sparkling golden liquid until my head begins to to spin. I feel like a traitor. What is my family having for dinner tonight? Do they know where I am? Or is my mother in tears waiting for me? Instead, I'm trapped in a room full of people who would kill me if they found out the truth. And with the royal family, of course, that the king would kill me if he could, and probably will one day. She turned me inside out, traded ragged wrestler for crown, rags for silk.

"Don't worry, Nathan and his family are fine, we're finding a way to get you out of here, just follow what they say until we find a safe way." Blacke. The note is short and to the point. My mind races just thinking that I'm going to stay here until they can save me, I let out an irritated sigh, but I have no choice, groaning, I throw the paper back on the nightstand. Soon they change me and I must sleep. The next morning I am awakened by the three maids who enter the room, silent as a breeze. After fifteen minutes of suffering through skin-tight leather pants, a draped dress, and other strange, impossible-to-wear outfits, we decide on the simplest thing I can find in the closet of wonders. Black pants, tight and tight, a dark blue coat with silver buttons, and light gray boots. Despite the shiny hair and heavy makeup, I almost look like myself. Lian waits in front of the door, tapping her foot on the marble floor. _____________ A minute late-she says as soon as I step into the hall.
