Chapter 2: A solution

The journey began, I didn't know what to do or where to go. I just walked where my legs took me. There were many difficulties that I faced during this journey. Getting tired from walking all the miles I decided to seat down by a smooth floor with grass by some sides. Sitting for awhile I decided to move around the forest, looking around I saw a cloud of smoke coming from one side of the forest. Following the cloud of smoke I saw an old man sitting by a fire. I decided to ask some questions, but I didn't get any answers out of no where he said " young lady I can see that you are looking for a solution to your predicament. These has happened to a lot of young ladies like you and they ended up dying because they couldn't find a solution. Giving your current position it just happened to so you are very lucky. Listen to this instruction and you would live.You must go the emperor's palace to go and seek a kiss from the emperor. Without this you wouldn't survive. But beware you've only gotten a year until you die so hurry up and you might leave.
