I am not your slave

The invaders are our neighbors.

It is so strange to know that neighbors can become brutal animals as I haven't been here for that long in this world. I didn't have any idea what people are capable of and how far they would go to get what they want.

The life in my country was always better than the other small countries around us as the other countries had massive taxes and upheavals

My upbringing was a very good and wonderful time that I had as life till now was interesting and adventures as I had many adventures finding lost caves and lost treasure.

There was always more adventures everyday when I was just a little girl my dad did lots of things with us. The festervals were some of the best memories that I had. We had five festervals a year , in the beginning of the year we had the moon festerval, then there was the festival of lights and that was wonderful as I could make my own lanterns that would float at night so bright and shiny , I enjoyed watching them float. The other three were eating festervals dedicated to famous people in my family that has died a long time ago.

The price of this conflict is going to way heavy on everyone in this country as we are a peaceful kingdom.

My father loved music and I was wondering before this happening where the bard was as his music could have pacified some of the violent types with beautiful music people become calmed down. With a harp or Lyra this is very happy music that could have changed the atmosphere of this invasion that has caused so much problems for now.

My father is an old man and I am afraid for him and what this commotion is going to do to him.

I was to learn the hard way of life and became accustomed to the severe actions of others. I don't think I will ever be able to trust anyone so easily now.

These invading soldiers came when our families were together and our guards were down. I don't know who survived and who was killed as a maid close to me begged we change places as she said "They don't kill maids , take my bracelet and I take yours ". I don't want to die so I have done exactly that and changed the bracelets around.

The next few hours after the invasion was a blur of bloodshed and doom I don't ever want to think of again as this is so frightening.

Most of what happened was a blur that I must have blocked out of my memory because I was so afraid at that time as this was the very first. I was involved in anything this dangerousness.

They put a old cotton bag over my head and put a cloth in my mouth. I was positioned to stand outside until a wagon of some kind came and loaded us in as I felt there was others here with me also squashed .

We were being carted off to an unknown place at least I was alive. At least I am going to live. That was my last thoughts as we moved before the movement of the cart made me fall asleep against the others. We were all doing that just accepting the position we were in and leaning on each other and sleeping..

Where we were going is another question????

I must have been asleep for a long time as I was leaning against the other people in the cart and the motion of the cart also made me sleep . Without the fear , that's probably what I would have been feeling had I been awake.

This is the most momentous occasion of my life as I will never forget the fear and anxiety I felt being taken from my doting family especially my father that has always loved and cared for me. I was a cherish member of my family.

My home I will never see again and this is a frightening experience to be in as my body was shaking all the time from the early morning cold weather. I was cold , hungry and thirsty as I didn't even eat anything last night and I was now regretting that I was so picky.
