"Y-you're awake... How do you feel?"
“Uh…well what happened? Why am i here?”
takes a deep breath "You were attacked by a group of orc warriors while traveling through the woods.
places a gentle hand on Pattyhe's shoulder "Don't worry, Pattyhe. You're safe now. I found you injured and brought you here to the elf castle.
“I am grateful for your help.”
pauses, hesitating "Pattyhe, there's something important I need to tell you..."
listens intently "What is it, Ariella?"
takes a deep breath "I... I'm not just a nurse. I'm an elf, a princess to be exact. And it's forbidden for me to show affection towards a human."
"I...I see. That's...unexpected."
leans closer to Pattyhe, her eyes searching his "But... I can't deny the feelings that have grown between us.
blushes slightly "Are you...are you saying you have feelings for me, Ariella?"
takes Pattyhe's hand in hers, her voice trembling "Yes, Pattyhe. I've fallen in love with you, despite everything.
blushes deeply "I...I don't know what to say, Ariella. This is...a lot to take in."
stands up, pacing back and forth "I know it's complicated, Pattyhe. The laws of my kingdom, the expectations of my family...
I hug her it’s ok Ariella as long as we are together that’s all that matters
stops pacing, tears welling up in her eyes "Pattyhe... I don't know what to do.
wipes away her tears "Hey, hey... don't cry. We'll figure it out together, okay?"
smiles through her tears, determination in her eyes "Thank you, Pattyhe. Together, we can find a way to be together, no matter the obstacles."
takes a deep breath "Now, we must devise a plan to ensure our love remains a secret.
nods Okay, let's start by gathering information about the elven kingdom and its laws.
sits down next to Pattyhe, pulling out a map of the elven kingdom "First, we need to understand the layout of the kingdom and its different regions.
so how do I fit into this Ariella?
puts her arm around Pattyhe, guiding him to a nearby table "We'll need to create a new identity for you, one that allows you to move freely within the kingdom without raising suspicion.
What about your family? They are sure to notice me, a human in their castle.
pauses, deep in thought "My family... they may present a challenge, but I have an idea.
grabs a quill and parchment, rapidly writing a script "We will create a backstory for you, one that explains your presence in the castle without arousing suspicion. Perhaps you can be a foreign dignitary or a delegate from a neighboring realm.
so my safety depends on me lying to your family?
holds Pattyhe's hands, looking into his eyes "Yes, Pattyhe, it will require deception, but it's the only way to protect both of us.
Are you sure about this, Ariella? I don't want to put you in a difficult position.
gently brushes Pattyhe's cheek with her fingertips "Pattyhe, I am certain about this. I love you, and I am willing to do whatever it takes to be with you. Trust me, we will find a way to navigate this together."
chuckles softly "Alright, Ariella. I trust you. Let's do this."
stands up, determination in her eyes "First, we need to gather supplies and create your new identity. Follow me, Pattyhe. We have much to do."
Stands up, following Ariella "Lead the way, Ariella. I'm ready to take this next step with you."
leads Pattyhe to a hidden room filled with documents and supplies "Here we are, Pattyhe. This is where we will create your new identity.
