[ORP] Victorious' Adventures

Victorious had forgotten the time and it was getting dark. She was so busy tending to her garden that she had forgotten that it was almost time for darkness to arrive.

Father always worried when she didn't come home. She hurried back to the castle before he knew it was getting dark but as always he was waiting for her at the front gate.

Where have you been now my child? I'm sorry Father that I'm late. I just was so busy with my garden that I lost track of time. She kisses his hand hoping he would forgive her. I met some nice gentlemen today. Suddenly he gave her a look that could burn her dress to pieces. They were harmless Father. One just gave me a dance and the other one well he just talked to me for a little bit nothing much though. Nothing to worry about Father. They are probably too afraid of you plus we are way out here from the town that no one even knows where I live. You must calm yourself Father before you give yourself a heart attack and leave me all alone in this castle of ours. Wait back up, A dance you say. You should not be dancing with anyone, young lady. Father I told you it was harmless. Well your harmless and my harmless are two different definitions. He spanks her bottom for being late and rushes her in the castle.

Well Father what is for dinner? Well thankfully you are not late for dinner. Why don't you go ask Isabelle how she is doing with dinner. Yes Father.

Phew thank the Lord I didn't tell him, he stole a kiss or he would really spank my hide.

He had been riding is noble steed throughout the prairies and forests when he came up to an older road that seemed to go down a ways. So given the man's curious nature he took the path on and on for a little ways. Eventually something stuck his eye in the distance. At first it was but the size of a tiny bush but as he got closer the size grew until the man was standing at the gate of what appeared to be a castle. The man then thought to himself, Should I go about my business or should I follow my curiosity and find out what or who lives here? He thought and thought until he finally decided that he would go to the gate and wait to see if someone would see him.......

Victorious had eaten breakfast early so she go to her favorite hiding place. She got properly dressed and put her cloak on and waved at the guard.

She hopped on Princess and rode to the gate and blinked when she saw a handsome man. She looked shyly towards him and wondered what she should say.

She got off Princess, her gorgeous white horse, and opened the gate.

She approached the man shyly, "Hello Sir may I help you?"

His back had been turned from the gate and when he heard the voice of a woman behind his he jumped! Turning around his blue eyes gazed into hers and when she finished speaking he had to think what he was supposed to say since he too was at a loss for words. After a few seconds he replied to the young lady, Greetings, I was just passing by and I noticed this place here and I thought to myself what a quaint place to live! So I rode up here to see who lived here. Oh pardon me for not introducing myself. I am Brown and I have traveled some distance from a town away from called Camaar. And what may I call you miss? After finishing his sentence he realized he had been looking at her eyes the entire time. He bowed to the Miss and waited for her to reply.

Victorious had waited for him to turn and when she did her heart jumped when she looked into those blue eyes. It felt like an eternity before she could look away.

She listened to him giving him a sweet smile the whole time. She waited for him to finish and said "Oh I'm sorry how rude was I, my name is Princess Victorious." She extended her hand, "It is very nice to meet you. I was heading to my special garden." "I don't know where you were headed but the invitation is open if you like."

Brown thought to himself, "Wow I am in the company of a princess! Now she just offered me an invitation to go with her to a garden!" After thinking for a moment he looked towards the Princess again and replied "Well since I'm not really doing anything anyway and I am always up for an adventure I will graciously accept your invitation. Ready when you are" he said with a soft smile. He waited for her to lead the way.

Brown got on his horse too and when he finally caught up to her he tied up his horse as well. Brown then started following the Miss and he asked her, "What exactly is special about this particular place if I may ask?" he said following her waiting for a reply.

She turns to see if Brown was following and she smiled.

It's a garden that I made for myself so that I can always come here when I'm having a lonely day, I can come here and look the beauty that this world has for me.

She walks over to the stone chairs and takes a seat.

I hope you like it.

Upon seeing the garden and hearing her words multiple emotions came to him all at once. Brown felt sad that such a beautiful woman could be lonely and also amazed that a garden could be this beautiful. He finally went to speak, "Gardens are a hard thing to master, but one beautiful as this must have taken much time and effort. A garden as beautiful as this seems fitting for such a beautiful woman such as yourself." Taking a seat Brown kept looking into the wonderful garden then he said again , "How could one be so lonely in such a big world and a wonderful place such as this."

She turned to see Brown sit down and admired such a perfect gentleman. She had been here for a long time and had never met such a man before. She started liking him very much.

My mother and I used to garden together when I was a young girl. She taught me everything I know. She was a wonderful person and she looked away very sad.

She turned shaking off the emotion, I just haven't seen anyone of interest that is all. My father keeps a tight leash on me too.

Brown listened carefully, "I am sorry for your loss... She must have been very wise because look at the lady you have become. Perhaps you could talk to your father, the world is a big place with much to explore... I could take you along to see where I come from. The people there are very nice and you could have a fresh start, but you would probably need to check with your father first though." Brown then waited looking into the distance for the slightest change in the air.

Brown watched her looking into his eyes and he decided that he would tell her the truth about everything. "As it my story begins is a land far away from here....."

I come from a land which is watched over by the "Grail Lords" I had come across one of them along time ago and that man was named Lord Arogandor. He soon grew to trust me and me him and soon enough I was called to govern one of the towns in the land by the name of Hrabrost...

Therefore I was or am not just Brown but in all essence I am still a Lord and though I no longer govern the town since it has came under new rule I have still played an active role in the community. The town was renamed Camaar and I was made Chief Advisor to the new town lord. After my position as town lord was over the Grail Lord bestowed great honor upon me for my duties to the town.

After that I went on a long journey for several months until I returned and as I was out riding on my noble steed I came across your path....

Brown finished his story and looked at the Miss who was still watching his closely
