gravity don't mean that much to me

The little princess was roused long before dawn, and had no trouble bending to her father’s will. Once her eyes were open she was awake. She did as Hattori instructed her and presented herself, ready to go wherever he would lead her. They went up steep and winding mountain paths, and she would have been lying if she didn’t appreciate the way her father stood between her and the cliff. They were both fully aware of how easily she could be tripping over her own paws let alone the treacherous trail here.

Fatigue was beginning to ebb at her when they finally reached their destination, but lifting her dual toned gaze up to the temple washed all of it away. Her expression changed to one of awe as she traced the corners of the structure and the layout of the once gardens. Like they were transported into one of their father’s tales. Stunned for only a moment she followed after her father over the snow dusted courtyard.

Hattori offered them time to explore the great temple before them, then back to training. Ike grinned up at her dad, and flinched at Oki’s crude use of language. She knew he liked to get a rise out of their dad but didn’t he have any respect for this place? He’d shared her look of awe. The princess sighed softly and followed her brother. Usually she loved his rough and tumble games, but not this one.
