Mistimed Fate [[ Closed RP with hoodedthiefrobin }}
Despite overcast skies and a looming threat of ran, Queen Regina had decided to brave the day's weather and call for a carriage to the shore side. There was something about crashing waves in stormy weather that appealed to her, and had it not been so gloomy, she'd have gone riding herself. But, rationally, she'd rather not become drenched before even approaching the surf.
The guards and horses had set off in the early morning, to arrive midday after trekking through the thick of the Enchanted Forest. It was, if Her Majesty recalled, a six hour escapade, in which she usually kept herself occupied with the sights outside her window, or a book chosen to her liking. Today it was the latter, and as the vessel bumped along the dirt trails and rocky pathways, she tried to block out any annoyances that may face her during the travel.
A book didn't exactly take away from the lurching halt of a carriage, though. Nor did it take away from the reaction the Queen gave- flying forward in her seat and nearly striking the cushions opposite her, book now discarded on the floor. Greatly irked by the unexpected stop, she reclined back in her seat, expecting whatever had gotten in the way or held them up to move or become quickly resolved.
"What the hell is going on?" she huffed halfheartedly, arms crossed about her chest.
