@Randompasserby18, its not that easy to get a hold of yourself in a situation like that. (I guess I have to type a lot...This's gonna be long....) The thing is, the artists and the author....they probably didnt want it to be scary. So, I think they decided to make it more....eh. So basically, if this was in real life, if you were that princess, the crown prince would look like a guy who has a biiiiiggg hole on his chest with no heart, drenched in massive amounts of blood and stuck in a crystal thingy. -_- But not just any guy, your brother. The brother that you loved so much and gave you everything. Oh. And also, the guilt you feel for being so spoiled and wanted 10x the fireworks that made the mages busy. The guilt you feel for the ppl dying that the mages couldve saved. And most importantly, the guilt of being so useless. The subjects was right. She is useless. But dont get me wrong. They handled the situation very poorly. But anyways, its also gonna be scary. Imagine hearing people scream in pain and begging for help. While 'you', the suppossed leader of them, cant do anything. You'd realize so many things. You realize that beauty and your brother is the only thing you have. No leadership skills, no talents in archery/sword/gun and no power or whatsoever. Although she's probably good with connections and social blah blah, that cant do anything in this kind of situation right? You'll keep denying that you cant do anything but when you try to think of something, nothing pops up. You'll be scared if you'll die or end up just like your brother. You wont know what to do, where to go, or "is even this place safe? Am I gonna die just like this? I wanted to experience more....Please, tell me this is a dream. Please!!" Thats probably what your gonna think. You'll be so confused. Your life turned upside down in a matter of seconds. Sooo many questions will rush through your brain. And, if you think too much and get super scared, you might go crazy. Especially when the people there are discouraging you and not helping at all. Except for the knight ofc. Any more, and shed go crazy.
But anyways, I do hope the Author would put more of the princess's thoughts and how scared, confused, and full of guilt she is. Looking forward to the next chapter!! >3 Btw, all my speculations from the previous chapter are all wrong. That was very unexpected..."-_-
