The Sealed Princess of Five Fates
"Oh please," I say, crossing my legs and examining my fingernails, "no need for the honorifics, Lethal baby. Give me the heads up of what's been going on around here. Pour the tea, sister!"
Lady Lethal looks a bit confused at this, but not one to deny orders, begins to inform me of everything that's going on. She goes on about trivial matters like preparedness for the invasion against humans, possible invaders inside the temple, but then starts getting into the juicy bits of info.
"And I wasn't going to bring this up," She tells me, sounding a bit reluctant, "but since you insist on being informed on EVERYTHING, I happened to come across this."
She reaches through the collar of her armor and retrieved a small pink envelope, sealed with a red wax heart.
"Oooh, a love letter, I bet!" I shouted. I lean forward a bit to get a better look at it. "Pass it up here, would you?"
Lady Lethal throws the letter like one would fling a disk, and I catch it. I admire the heart seal for a second before curiosity takes the place of admiration, and I tear open the top of the envelope. I then fish out the white paper inside and unfold it so I can read it. It is indeed a love letter, but one not unfortuantly not addressed to me, which is slightly disappointing. However, my spirits are lifted as I begin to read it aloud.
"Dear skeleton with the navigational skills of a goldfish, how I admire your pearl body and wish to become your oyster, shielding you with my wings. My sharp eyes become transfixed when staring upon your dull bones. If you are to find this message, then it is fate. Please return it to me that we may embrace this fate together."
I laugh, knowing exactly who the author was, as well as the intended reader. And I knew exactly what to do with this information
