The water falling gently through the fortress Wynn begins to wake. “Wonder what the day will bring me today?” Sliding her arms into her robe she walks to the tavern. “Hi Mr. Garrett have you seen my father this morning? “
“Yes, milady he was off early this morning said something about some type of business. “
“He is always on business. If that man sat still for 2 seconds he would freeze. Can you please give me a bowl of oatmeal and a banana? “
“I will milady” Handing her the oatmeal he smiles and returns to his work. Watching Garrett clean and restock from the night before. She thought about what Garrett had said. She knew that running the fortress was a full time business. He was always busy even as a child she can remember him carrying her with him to meetings or into town to get more workers. The fortress was a place that had always lived always had people in it and work to be done.
“Well Mr. Garrett, thank you for the breakfast I must be on my way, “waving as she walked out the door.
Her father had always taken great care of her and he brother Ug. He had never let either of them do without. He had always made sure that no matter what they were happy and healthy. The one thing she had always wondered though was why was the fortress never finished? There always seemed to be building somewhere. She knew it took many hands to maintain its beauty. With the waterfalls and the plants.
Returning to her room she sits by the vanity to ready herself for the day. Rubbing her hand over the old necklace that was given to her by her father and smiles. “Well I must write my thoughts, “slowly pulling open the drawer to retrieve her diary. Dipping her Quill in ink she begins to write...
Diary,
So many thought swirl in my head. Why is the fortress never completed? Why must my father work so hard? And why is it that besides him, my brother, and Uncle Squid lips do we not have any other family around?
I know so many questions. I should never question any of it. I have had a wonderful life but I can’t help but wonder.
I never want to leave the fortress. Even my day to day duties as a doctor I have always felt so secure when I return to the Fortress. This place is my home will always be my home. This is where I have no worries and will always be safe. Hope my daddy understands. This birds wings will be broken She will never leave the nest.

Giggles as she writes the last sentence. Knowing her father would always tell her to venture on her own to explore the world. She never felt the need too. The fortress was her world and was adventure enough for her. Shutting the journal she begins to dress for the day.
