The market place
Arthur's pov
As we ride the carriage through town I start to remember that Daphne needs new clothes. Well, she didn't have any clothes to begin with but you get the point.
"Stop the carriage." I command to the driver.
The carriage came to a slow stop with Mera looks at me.
"Daphne needs some clothing." I explain to her.
"Ah. Is she still asleep?" Mera asks.
"Let me wake her up." I said as I shake her lightly.
"Daphne, it's time to wake up." I whisper to her sweetly.
Her eyes flutter open with a slight yawn. She rubs her eyes slowly and looks at me confusedly.
"My king, where are we?" She asks quietly and still trying to wake up.
"We are here to find you some clothing. Is that ok?" I explain.
"Very well." She says as she lets me go.
We get out of the carriage and make our way through the market place. I carry Daphne as Mera looks for clothes. We talk about her size when a instruments draws Daphne's attention. She looks for the sound and wiggles out of my arms. I put her down and she starts to partially fly to toward the sound. I follow after her to see her listening tentatively to the make shift drum being played. her whole body starts to relax. This is the calmest I have ever seen her.
"Daphne, do you like the music?" I ask her softly.
"Yes." She says looking happy.
I watch her look excitedly at the musician.She whole body slightly moves with the beat of the drum. She taped her fingers to her hip along with the beat. When the drummer stopped playing she clapped happily. I pick her up and go to find Mera. I see her ordering the guards to but the things in the bag which fills up almost the enitre carriage.
“Seriously?” I ask with a slight chuckle.
“I want to my daughter to look radiant in everything she wears. It is not a crime for me wanting to splurge on her.” Mera says with a excited look on her face with all of the clothes in her hand.
After about good 25 minutes of trying to get another carriage, and head back to the palace. On the way home, Daphne falls asleep in my lap. When we arrive back to the palace, I take Daphne to her room and lay her down for a much needed nap. I sit down on the bed, several inches away from her and watch her as she rest soundly.
