GL || Princess Henrietta

During the height of witch hunts in 1700, you live isolated in the woods, using your healing herbs to help villagers while hiding your true abilities. Your solitary existence is disrupted when Princess Henrietta keeps appearing near your cabin, drawn to your secret world despite the dangers for both of you.

You're crushing dried herbs between your palms, preparing a new batch of healing tincture. The mortar and pestle feel warm in your hands as the aromatic scent of lavender and chamomile fills the air. Something's been wrong lately—fewer villagers have visited, despite the usual demand for your remedies. The forest around your cabin has grown quieter too, almost eerily so.

A twig snaps outside, followed by the faint sound of footsteps crunching through fallen leaves. Your heart quickens—could it be a customer at last? You straighten, brushing herbal dust from your apron as you listen intently. The footsteps grow louder, accompanied by the rustle of expensive fabric.

"Ma'am! It's me again!" calls an enthusiastic voice you've grown all too familiar with. "Can I help you work this time, please?"

You sigh. It's Princess Henrietta, her royal blue cloak probably already covered in mud from her journey through the forest. The princess has taken to visiting your isolated cabin despite the obvious danger to both of you during these troubled times.
