She walked out and saw the light within the gardens. She spotted him in the pergola covered with Wisteria and Heliotrope.
As she got near, she found out her father was not alone but with Prince Christian Edgar, who was going to be her husband soon.
She handed him the journal, old and dusty. Then she sat down on the mat with curiosity.
As the King opened it, he couldn't stop the tears that rolled out, and he could feel the memories on the pages.

"Stay here, Christian; I want you to listen to this too; after all, we're all family!"
Prince smiled and joined the princess on the Ground, like small kids listening to the stories, which were real.
