On the second day of the fifth week in the third year after the return of the lost princess, the sun did not rise.

Or at least, not on time.

I am sure that there will be a lot of consternation in the history books as to what exactly transpired. Some will say the nightmare of old returned, while others will believe that the serpent had a claw in it.

But the truth of the matter is... well... it’s exceedingly simple: I needed a holiday, and sadly, my sister isn’t exactly diligent in her tasks when I am not around.
