Within the locket, a miniature painting captures a deeply intimate scene. The prince, now in his twenties, is seated on a grand chair, but his posture is relaxed, almost unguarded. His expression is a mix of pride and warmth, but there's a shadow of sorrow in his eyes. In his arms, he cradles a newborn baby, swaddled in soft, white blankets. The infant's tiny features are delicate, her eyes closed as she sleeps peacefully against the prince’s chest. At the prince's side, a two-year-old girl stands, holding onto the arm of the chair with one small hand while clutching a simple wooden toy in the other. The way the prince looks at her is a mixture of love and regret. Behind the trio, the background is softly blurred, suggesting a private setting. all the daughters in the garden above hands the necklace to Baz Baz recognizes without a doubt the 2 year old in the 3rd locket more necklace made of diamond some delerium was found there is a letter Johann Eisner, Royal Steward Please excuse the haste of this missive, and the messenger who bears it. Our present circumstances are both dire and desperate. I have charged this man with ensuring your safety during this calamity. He is a valiant knight, and will escort you and your handmaids out of Drakkenheim. It is imperative you flee the castle immediately via the garden passage. Do not return to the royal apartments, nor take the main castle gate. I beg you, your Majesty, do not wait for anyone else, nor burden yourself with trinkets and treasures, nor tarry in the gardens! Escape the city with all speed. I promise, my queen, I shall not leave myself without the king and your son. I pray that your daughters remain safe. We shall all meet again in health and mirth soon.
