A common name

[towerlocked]

Mundane, I will be ready for wherever I may go from here.

... And yet, I find it strange that there truly are others who carry my name. And they are also princesses? Such a strange collection of "worlds" to produce many of the same kind.

You say I may come to meet them on my travels. How many are there?

Comments

[cassie_of_troy]

More than you can possibly imagine.

[towerlocked]

Have you met them?

[cassie_of_troy]

One or two. And I hear tales. I don't say much, so I hear everything.

[towerlocked]

That sounds like a good idea. I think I shall do the same.

[cassie_of_troy]

What shall I call you?

[towerlocked]

Snow White.

[cassie_of_troy]

A fitting name.

[towerlocked]

Thank you. It was my mother who named me.

[cassie_of_troy]

Mine named me as well. Wishful thinking, on her part.

[towerlocked]

Why do you say that?

[cassie_of_troy]

My name means "she who entangles men." As firstborn, she expected me to have a thousand suitors.

[towerlocked]

I never thought much of suitors. [wonders what her mother thought about them]

[cassie_of_troy]

Nor I.

[towerlocked]

So you do not have thousands?

[cassie_of_troy]

No. Only one. But he's gone.

[towerlocked]

I am sorry to hear that.

[cassie_of_troy]

No matter. He's better off.

[towerlocked]

[not sure what to say to that]

Irony.

[snow_white_lily]

What is your name?

oh dear

[towerlocked]

I am Snow White, princess of Tabor.

[snow_white_lily]

I don't know anyone else by that name.

[towerlocked]

My mun assures me many possess it.

[snow_white_lily]

[Considering it seems more like a description, Lilli isn't terribly surprised.]

My name is Lilliana Hoffman. I am Lord Hoffman's daughter. Have you heard of him?

[towerlocked]

No. He must be from beyond my kingdom.

[snow_white_lily]

What is the name of your kingdom?

[towerlocked]

Tabor.

[snow_white_lily]

Ah, you mentioned that before. I've never heard of it.

[towerlocked]

Our kingdoms must be very far away from each other.
