My father, the king of France, came home to me today and told me that he was arranging a marriage for me. I wondered why, and then I realized that it was his ally's child. This would help my father reinforce the stability of my father's army. I didn't know what to say, and my father told me that I could think about it. I want to marry whom I choose, but I want to keep my father safe at the same time. I am lost, in so much trouble. I needed to think about this conundrum, and tell my father my decision. He came back to where I was, and told me that he needed my to give him the consent today, and that pressured me even more. What was I going to do?

It took me a while to think, and I finally came to a decision, and that I had nothing to say about this marriage alliance.            As long as my father knows that how that person, whom I will marry, will not be brutal or mean in any way, I am fine with it, and will do whatever I can to keep my father and his army safe and sound. I really would like to be able to choose my own life partner, but I know this will be the best for my father, and the country of France. Since my father was the king, and my mother was the queen, they had the right to come visit me as much as possible right? So I think that doing this, and agreeing to my father's idea will be the best thing to do. Even though it was a difficult step, I walked up to my father on his massive throne of gold, and told him that I agreed to the marriage, because I knew what was right, which is keeping all of France, and my family safe. 

My father didn't look too happy when I walked in, but he smiled at what I said. He then told me that it was not needed. Hi ally broke alliances with him, and he has to go find a new one. He looked at me and said, "Do you want to come?" I nodded happily, and he told me I could choose the suitor, and that if it was a good country, he'd agree tot he alliance. I was free to choose my suitor, and help keep my father, mother, and France safe. I smiled, and hugged my father, happy to get rid of the conundrum that was in my head.
