【Beginning】
Since the day Geironul stormed out of the castle and met the spear brandishing old man, she sneaked out every day after class to learn about the spear with the old man. As she brandished the spear, Geironul started to pick herself up bit by bit. She loved playing with the spear while she spent time figuring out what's the meaning of her life.
One day, the old man was teaching her a new move. It had always been easy for Geinorul to learn new moves in the past, but this time she couldn't master it. She was doing the right moves, but could never hit the ground as powerful as the old man did. Geironul became filled with anxiety…At that moment, the old man took out a strange bottle from his waist and passed it to her.
Old Man: Drink it!
Geironul hesitated for a while, but she still took the bottle and finished the drink. It tasted bitter. Warmth rose from her stomach to her throat, and all the way to her head. She started to feel excited and there was only one thing on her mind: to brandish the spear as much as she wants! Her body felt lighter and became more sensitive, as if she was dancing on clouds.
Geironul: What is this? I've never had a drink this fantastic.
Old Man: This is wine. It’ll help you forget your troubles for the time being, but you shouldn’t drink too much of it.
Since then, Geironul worked even harder on practising the spear. She also became addicted to wine, enjoying the brief silence it brought her. In that world, she was no longer a ‘princess’. She could be herself and do whatever she wanted. She felt like she didn’t belong to the palace and shouldn't attend her usual courses either. She started to rebel…
【Before Battles】
As Geironul knew the palace wasn't the place for her and all those princess lessons weren't for her, she started paying less attention to them.
Geironul's attitude created hostility between her and Skogul. In the end, the sisters argued.
【Enemy Dialog】
Skogul: I know you’re not doing well in these courses, but these are things we as princesses need to know! You can’t be this irresponsible!
Geironul: You really think you're that intelligent? Smart enough to look down upon your own sister?
Geironul: You are nothing but a sheltered child, you can’t even live a day alone outside the palace!
【After Battles】
Geironul knew she said something wrong, but what was done could not be undone.
Upon seeing Skogul cry and leave the room, Geironul was full of regret.
【End】
After Skogul left, Geironul stayed in her room, regretting everything she said to her sister. Filled with anxiety, she rode her horse, left the castle, and headed toward the forest. She brandished her spear for a whole day and drank countless bottles of wine.
However, this time the alcohol couldn't wash away her troubles. When she returned home at night, she saw the King standing in her room. Shattered glass was all over the floor…Just when Geironul wanted to say something, the King raged,
King of Baldr: You disappointed me! You’re not elegant like Skogul and now you’re learning how to use a spear and drinking wine?
Geironul: I know I'm not elegant! All of you don't like me! Why even bother giving birth to me? I'll only embarrass you!
The King of Baldr slapped her. A red palm print appeared on Geironul’s face. Both of them went silent and only the sound of their heavy breathing was heard. After a long period of silence, the King said,
King of Baldr: No more wine and spear practising from now on! Do me a favour and learn how to be an elegant princess!
Geironul: This is my life, my fate. I should be making the decisions!
Geironul reached out her hand, wanting to take back her spear. As the two of them were fighting for the spear, they accidentally broke it. The spear broke in half and the flowers on it withered…Geironul squatted down crying and brought the broken spear close to her chest. The King left her room and ordered the servants to confine her in her room until she had learned from her mistakes…
