NaPoWriMo: Day 28 – The Empress

Words: ride, lost, tide, broke, water, still, divide, drop, remain

I was an Empress in my other life
the time when people were getting hungry
stole some money from the Emperor
gave them to the poor, the lost and the needy
I did this secretly, of course
with just some trusted knights
we rode and wandered the streets
divided some food and money to the people
one time there was a storm
the tide was high, the dam broke
water was everywhere
nothing remained of people’s properties
we tried to help as much as we could
the kingdom dropped what they were doing
to save as many people as possible
a horrible experience indeed
I still had nightmares about it
