As they were being guided through the wide halls of the gargantuan
castle, a very much exhausted Rin internally went through the recent
chain of events that led them to their current situation. A day earlier,
some fancy-dressed dude went to their home, and announced some-
thing about Rin being 1st heir to the throne, now that blahblah died and
this and that were nowhere to be found. Without a chance to object,
they had to pack their belongings, and early in the morning, they were
taken in the long, boring trip to their new residence.
Allegedly, Rin was going to be introduced to someone who would
actually explain what the hell was going on, as well as help them get
used to their new lifestyle and responsibilities.
The kid felt a strong urge to roll their eyes at all of this; was this outta
some fairytale or something? Everybody talked and dressed like that
was the case. Ugh.
It took a while to get to their destination (Rin hoped they wouldn’t need
to walk a freakin’ marathon every time they needed something), but
eventually the butler (butler!) opened the doors of one of many rooms,
and motioned for Rin to walk in. There was a girl that seemed to be
around their own age; while she was dressed so elegantly that it
completely outshone Rin’s simple casual peasant outfit, her most
notable feature was the long, teal hair that fell all the way down her
back, maybe even further.
