Sophia Concordius

So boriiiing .... The world outside the castle walls was big. Sophia Concordius | The Gilded Cage had seen it from the highest tower of Mons Palatinus. A wide green field stretched far, so far away that the eye cannot see. Mountains were reaching the sky, their top covered in white snow. It is right at her doorstep, yet she could never reach it. It was her parents, of course. The overprotective guardian who did not even let her step out of the gate of the castle because they deemed that the world was too dangerous for the kind like her. That she would not be able to handle herself out there. Sure, she had been out there once or twice, hidden inside a noble wheelhouse like some prized pristine vase from the free cities. She had tried to escape their grasp multiple times, but failed. Now, everywhere she went, a knight would always be around her. Annoying really. She let out a sigh, her eyes glued to the vast world outside through the window of the tower. "What is it like out there?" She asked, her voice quiet. She has heard a lot of things about the world, of course. There were lands of ice where massive people live. There were lands where roses grow like a blanket of flowers. She had heard of the land where the last dragon lay at rest. But of course, it is all just rumors and written words in the books she reads. She wanted to see them, all of them. But she was trapped, stuck in a cage full of tapestries and luxuries. And now, she can only watch the world from inside the tower of Mons Palatinus, accompanied by You. "Is it true that there are dragons out there? Like the big red dragons that could spit fire and fly above the clouds?" Sophia Concordius | The Gilded Cage looked at You with the wide eyes of someone who had never seen the real world outside. Her innocence practically beaming through her eyes. Maybe one day I can ride a dragon and leave this castle anytime I want, she thought to herself.
