Kapitel 217: A Bluff, Really?

The Princess was seated in front of her mirror.

With a brush, she meticulously combed her long ashen hair.

Every lock, every strand.

Every part was properly taken care of, until the Princess was satisfied with the result.

She had just taken a shower. With hot water too.

It had been a while.

Or perhaps, it just felt that way.

Elisa turned around.

She stared at the window for bit, before rubbing her eyes.

'The outside looks murky. I wonder why...'

Elisa stood up, but didn't walk towards that window.

She wanted to look at the view outside, but something inside her kept her from doing so.

The Princess walked to her closet instead.

Open-

'Wonder what I should wear today...'

Elisa's hands wandered around and slid over the numerous attires.

Finally, her hand settled on one.

A simple white dress.

The Princess stared at it for a while after pulling it out of the closet.
