A Brave Move

Jayra smiled at them as she started, "I came from a poor background, without even so much as a family to call my own. Don't tell Princess Xenia about it though. If she hears this from me, she'll be bound to get mad. She hates it when I say that, and she'll always tell me that she and her family are my true family now. Well, it was true, of course. The royal family treats me like one of their own, caring for me as if I was pretty much a member of the royal family."

She continued at length. "You see, I was a baby when a royal guard found me outside the castle walls. He then took me to the chapel inside Ebodia castle where they took good care of me and gave me the shelter that I needed as a baby. Long story short, I'm basically an orphan who doesn't know a thing about my origins."

Pausing for a bit, she took a quick peek at her listeners, only to see that everyone was still closely listening to her. Letting out a sigh, she continued with her life's story.
