Azura, the Blue Wanderer
A legend Queen Adelle told to her daughter, Abrienda:I'm satisfied with this side plot, and it seems like I should leave it alone for now. If you see any spelling mistakes or typos, please, point them out. Also, if you have any suggestions for a character's back story, I'm all ears.
Azura was a beautiful, young girl known all around the kingdom to be kind and sweet. She lived in a small cottage only a couple miles from the kingdom's walls with her mother. She came into the kingdom to sell her food and trade goods for clothing and tools. She and her mother were very poor, but they never complained about it. They always seemed so happy... until, one day, a prince came to her cottage seeking shelter from a storm. They let him stay, and he ended up sleeping there. The king and queen, worried about their missing son, sent out a search party. Some old man claimed he saw the prince being forced into a cottage about a mile or two away from the kingdom. The king was shocked and angry at the same time. He ordered the man to lead his royal guard to retrieve the prince. The old man led the soldiers into a cavern to escape from a storm. After the storm, they all headed to the cottage. They broke into the cottage and took the prince while he was still sleeping. The old man stayed a moment longer. He murdered Azura's mother. Azura managed to get away and run to the kingdom's front gate. They wouldn't let her in, because they assumed she kidnapped the prince. So, after a lot of begging and pleading, Azura gave up on the ignorant guards and yelled at the top of her lungs "Curse you all!" She then ran away, never to be seen again. However, a few people have claimed to see her wandering the vast land of our kingdom, still thinking of a way to get her revenge.
