I have to write an epic for my world lit class and this is it .

"
The world was quiet as though it held its breath when suddenly a cry shattered the the quiet of the Kingdom a little princess has been born. The next day the King announces that she shall be the heir to the kingdom despite her being the youngest of his 4 children and an omega. The eldest of her Brothers Michael is ineligible for the throne due to his status as a b*****d he was born from a tryst the king had when he was a young prince with a serving girl before he met his beloved wife and queen Selene. The second oldest of the little princesses Brothers is Prince Bruno who is unfit for the title of heir due to his.........habit Prince Bruno is rarely if ever seen with a sober mind. The princesses third eldest brother Vaughn was deemed undeserving of the title heir due the cold violent rumors that surround him about what he does to his servants in private. The little princess family and kingdom despite being one of the most powerful was looked down upon by the other kingdoms and their Royals because of her family line being of mixed blood. Her mother having been of the frost the Royal line of the veturúfur kingdom which is known for being winter wolves (they typically have long wolf like ears, a fluffy tail, and claws. white, silver, gray, and sometimes but rarely blue hair. Pale porcelain white or clouded blue colored skin. Blue, silver, or gold eyes) and her father being of the heart Royal line of the draki Kingdom which was known for being Shadow dragons (they typically have horns batish wings and a serpent like tail some of which have pointed protrusions. black or purple hair. Grayish to black skin. black, gray,or greenish black eyes.) The mixing of unsimilar kinds was unprecedented and seen as shameful because of this the little princess Bridget and two of her three Elder brothers Bruno and Vaughn were seen as shameful half breeds her eldest brother Michael having been born a pure breed due to his mother being of the same kind as their father. Princess Bridget was often forced by her father to attend the meeting of kingdoms much like the other kingdoms heirs. The young heirs were often brought together in mock version of the meetings of kingdoms. Princess Bridget at often resented these meetings she was continuesly ignored by the other heirs and spoken over. The princess had no friend or alie during the meetings the few heirs she knew in the personal sense could not or would not help her the prince alnier of the ljós kingdom which was known for being light dragons (they typically have golden horns Gold or white batish wings and a smooth serpent like tail. Blonde and light brown hair. Tanned and gold like skin. Gold, orange eyes) could not assist her due to the hatred between their peoples, prince bun of the kanina kingdom which was known for being rabbits ( they typically have long floppy bunny ears rabbit like buck teeth and a cute little ball of fluff for a tail. Brown drity blonde sometimes black hair. Pale or tanned skins .Green or blue eyes.)could not help her arguments because he was of the rabbit kind and equally ignored, and prince William of the skógurúlfa kingdom which was known for being forest wolfs (they typically have long wolf like ears, a fluffy tail, and claws. blonde brown black and sometimes green hair. Sun kissed colors of skin. Gold stormy gray eyes.) was able to assist her but chose not to despite the friendship they once shared as young children he now thought of her as inferior and pathetic. Princess Bridget could no longer tolerate the judgmental stares and ran away from her kingdom to seek something more. Weeks past since princess Bridget left her childhood home. Hunger and fear were now constants for her. She even began contemplating turning back. Princess Bridget collapsed from her hunger darkness fuzzied her sight soon consuming her. Princess Bridget slowly roused from her slumber. Fear raced through her she was not laying on the ground were she collapsed she was in a soft bed. Her eyes darted around in fear and panic not daring to move from the bed. Footsteps echoed in the silence slowly growing louder Bridget’s heart slamming against her ribs in fear the footsteps slowed to a stop just outside the door the sent of hazel soup filled her nose as the door slowly pushed open a towering man covered in scars with a smile firmly set on his face stood in it’s wake in his hands was a bowl and spoon the mans smile widened further at seeing her awake. Her words shook as she spoke w...what...d..d..do....y...you...w...wa...want...fr..from...m...m...me.. his smile lessened a fraction and his response was subdued “nothing.....I don’t want anything from you but to get better when I found you calapsed in the road you looked like death. You bearly look above 7. It’s not safe out there for children like you.” Bridgets response was immediate but to quit to properly hear. The man asked her repeat her response. “I’m not 7 I’m 10.” she replied in a huffy tone. “You’re still to young to be out on your own where are your parents kids your age need someone to care for them.” His tone filled with worry. “I can take care of myself I don’t need anyone especially not them.” The last word was spit with venom. He heaved out a sigh “when I found you, you were passed out from hunger and looked like you hadn’t eaten in days so obviously you can’t take care of yourself.” She let out a sad almost painful sounding sigh “I doubt any of them have even noticed I’m gone or miss me.........the only person who might is Tempus my father’s councilman a man that makes passes at defenseless young girls.” A look of true horror and disgust appeared on the mans face his voice full of conviction “I have dissided I will not allow you to return there. I shall become your guardian and protecter you will live and travel with me from now so I may protect you from such horrors.” “ do you realize You don’t even know my name nor I yours.” Her tone slightly amused. “Yes I suppose we should rectify that I’m valor and I am a wondering knight you?” Was his reply. Her response was a little subdued “I’m Bridget it’s nice to meet you I guess.” years have pass since that day teaching Bridget the way of the sword and to obide by the knights code of arms.
