A Way To Enter

Under the cover of the night, Princess Emilia stood with Noel and Clifford, her heart pounding with a mix of urgency and determination. The imposing palace loomed before them, now occupied by Clive who had seized control. He had closed off all known hidden passageways, leaving Emilia uncertain of her family's secret route.

"You know that they'd covered all the secret passages when he planned to force Amy to marry. Even though I had not tried this way the last time, I am not too sure if Clive knows about this. After all, he was quite trusted by Father, though it was Father himself who told me to never show this route to anyone but members of the family. But we may have to find some other way... "

Noel shook his head and spoke," We have no choice but to try entering through this weathered door and hope that King Delroy was not that gullible. Let's go."
