    Princess Amelia was torn between her duty and her love for her father. The royal prophecy had foretold that she must ascend the throne by taking her father's life.

    King Harold, unaware of the prophecy, was cherishing the remaining time with his beloved daughter. His health was deteriorating, and he wished to see Amelia wear the crown.

    Princess Amelia sought advice from the Oracle. The Oracle reiterated the prophecy, explaining that the kingdom's survival depended on her ascension, which required her father's sacrifice.

    Stricken with grief and guilt, Amelia questioned her destiny. She wrestled with the idea of such a terrible act, yet the survival of her kingdom hung in the balance.

    Amelia spent days and nights contemplating her choice, walking aimlessly in the royal gardens. The weight of the crown seemed heavier with each passing moment.

    One evening, King Harold joined her in the garden. Unaware of her turmoil, he confessed his pride in her and his wish to see her as queen. His words added to her internal struggle.

    Tears welled up in Amelia's eyes as she held the crown. She made her decision - she would not let prophecy dictate her actions, even if it meant going against destiny.
