I. White Cliffs
She found the perfect hidden cove. Princess Lei opened the hatch & stepped out below the faint galaxy of stars. She inhaled the deep pungency of the sea, & she could hear the waves breaking in the shade of the fleeting night. She looked around. She could barely see the dark outlines of a few scattered boats- but she could follow the driftwood stairs leading up the side of the cliff. She closed the hatch & began her climb.
Minutes later she reached the edge of the cliff, warm with perspiration. There were no stars- only the orange glow of the sun breaking above the distant horizon of sea. Far below she could see the small shape of the Twinkling Star, hugging the side of the cliff. Nobody in the galaxy knew where she was right now- that was her advantage.

II. The White Castle
Magnifico twisted his narrow lips into a puppet smile.
"My fair Lady & Queen, you spin threads of gold from common straw. I am but a scarecrow at your service."
And like an ostrich, he dropped his angular body into a tilted droop. He then snapped back from his makeshift bow, & rested crazily on one leg.
