The crowd watched on in a mixture of disbelief and morbid curiosity as the man's head flew through the air and landed at her feet. She stepped on his still-blinking eyes and moved past as if it were nothing.
And no one said a word- it was deathly silent until her figure slowly walked deeper into the city, vanishing from sight. At this point several weak-hearted individuals either passed out on the spot or keeled over in disgust, emptying the contents of their stomachs on the muddy street.

The Princess casually crossed one street after another, heading directly to the inn. This is where many of the patrons gathered after nightfall for various festivities so things were usually quite boisterous.
But when she appeared, no matter how intoxicated or inebriated one was, they did not dare stand in her way and a path was cleared straight to the backrooms, as if they knew exactly where she was headed.
