Emperor's Daughter XVII
Una had studied the medieval era very well but she had never for once come across the kingdom of Slosalia. It was strange to her. This was probably a bad dream and she was sure she would get over it once she sleeps it over so she climbs into bed and covers herself up with the warm blanket. Before she could tell herself to go to bed she fell into a deep slumber. "Your highest" Irkal said. She had fallen asleep shortly after she saw Una finally go to bed. She has for a moment forgotten that the princess she served was no longer a part of the living world but now dead. Una stretched in the bed as she wiggled her legs. Irkal had gone to inform Xisuthra about Una and how she reacted. Xisuthra informed the Emperor who was going to come see her immediately after the morning readings. "Una, you need to wake up now," Irkal said correcting herself. She moved to the bedside and tapped Ina gently on the arm. Una stood up and rubbed her eyes gently. She had been awake for a while now but re
Emperor's Daughter XVIII
Soon Una was dressed in elaborate cotton and adornment. The headpiece given to her was heavy that it was making her neck crack. The girls began to put on makeup for her. She did not like the way the powder tickled her face but she might as well cooperate with them if she wanted out from this place. Someone here would surely have answers to why she appeared in this timeline and how she can easily leave this place before she affects anything in the future. "Irkal, do I need to wear this?" Una asked tilting her head to the left. "Yes," Irkal answered without turning to face her. "You did not even look to see what I was talking about," Una said frowning. She could get the vibe from Irkal that she did not like her. Was it because of her many questions? Of course, Irkal would not understand. Imagine being pulled out from your family and thrown into a world that doesn't have your technology and that you can barely recognize you would ask questions. One only asks questions because they
Emperor's Daughter XIX
The Emperor's question did not make sense to Una. How could he be asking about the year she came from? Did it make sense that he would ask her that? How did he know she was not from this era? She could be a spy for all he knows. Does he probably know something about what was going on with him? She knew that she did not have much of an option as she did not know how to live in this newly found place. "How do you know that I am not of this era?" Una asked. "The stars already predicted that we would have a strange visitor and your clothes are not anything like we have seen recently. We have had envoys from various parts of the world visit us but I haven't seen anyone wear such clothes" Asalan said. "That is a pretty deep analysis" Una replied. Yes, she was from 2022 and everything happening to her did not make sense. If one could truly travel through time then why haven't the scientist discovered it yet? The technology in her era was top-notch. How could those in the fifteen century
Emperor's Daughter XX
It made sense that the Emperor to her would want her to do something for him. She was not from their world she would be the best candidate to carry out a shady plan and never get caught for it. But something about the way he said it did not sit right with her. "I need you to do something for me," Asalan said again when he got no response. He was running out of time. He knew that any moment now the Empress could burst in there. She had visited him this early morning to tell him that it seemed like the princess was sick and her maid was hiding her. "Wh...a...t is it?" Una stammered. She did not like his tone and her guts rarely betrayed her. She followed her guts when she embarked on important missions and they never failed her before. "The princess died yesterday" Asalan starts as he moves towards the bed to take his seat. Una was well aware of a situation like this. Bad guys usually used situations like this to emotionally manipulate those they wanted to deal with. Was the Emper

"Until you find a solution? How long would that take?" Una asked. "Until I find the killer and a replacement for the bride-to-be who was killed," Asalan said. "How long would that take?" Una raised her voice. She had a bad feeling about this. She did not know how she ended up there but now all she knows is that her only way out would not tell her until she does him this huge favor. She would do it because she had no choice whatsoever but she wanted to make sure that there was a time frame. "When do I leave?" she asked again. This time her voice was lower. She would not want to raise any suspicions around her. She could be easily discarded and then her life ends there. Her life would then end for just being adamant. "I said you should open the door" Inal screamed and put her feet down. She had been standing outside the door to the princess room which was suspiciously heavily guarded. She always only had Ungan who was her guard but today the emperor's guard and his right-hand man

"You have made a good choice. The only way I can protect you well here is if you are on my side and if you would do what I ask of you" Asalan said. He was glad she had agreed to what he proposed. If she had refused and he chose to end her life it would still not solve his issues. "First things first you would need to learn the ways of our people, our culture, and our land. How many days do you think you would be able to learn how to become a well-trained princess for the kingdom?" Asalan asked. Una did not know how bulky their culture was. She did not know how long it would take her to learn everything. If she was going to stand as the princess then she needs to learn everything and be perfect. She must not be found out or else she could be in danger. "A few days" She answered unsure of what to say. "Okay then, we would say you don't feel well and you have to go to the praying streams to pray and bathe in the water. Instead, you would go to the house on the east coast and be there
Emperor's Daughter XXIII
"Yes replace the princess" Asalan responded. He had thought it through and his idea was the best they could do for themselves now. Xisuthra did not know if the idea was a good one but he knew that if it was from the Emperor then it should be a good idea. The Emperor in his twenty-five years of reign had always made wise and good decisions. The people of the kingdom trusted him very much. He had ensured peace even if it meant giving up his precious daughter for its sake. "I will see to it that everything is settled," Xisuthra said. When the Emperor was safely in his chamber Xisuthra left back to carry out the Emperor's duty. Xisuthra called his son aside to let him know of his new duties. "Pishtu" Xisuthra did when he pulled him aside. Pishtu was the eldest son of Xisuthra. His job was to take care of the crown prince till he can ascend the throne and then serve him till his death. Being from the family of the head of the kingdom warriors Pishtu proved himself by being the best f
Emperor's Daughter XXIV
Of all the things he had been expecting his father to say that was not one of them. What could the Emperor's request be? Did he want to carry out a secret burial? It was a state of confusion to Pishtu that he wondered how the Emperor was taking the matter. "Baba, what do you mean by that?" Pishtu asked when he finally found his voice. Was his father trying to play a prank on him? Did the government house and political bodies finally approve a prank day where everyone goes around to prank others? "You heard me and I know you heard me loud and clear. The princess was found dead at noon time yesterday" Xisuthra said. It was impossible because Pishtu had run into the princess yesterday when she was going on her usual afternoon stroll. She had been kind as she always was. "But..." Pishtu began. "Now is no time for tales and stories," Xisuthra said cutting him off. "We have found someone who looks exactly like the princess. She is going to pose as the princess until the Emperor finds
