There once was a girl who was locked away in a tower. Living in a pitch black room, she was terrified of the darkness. The tower was well equiped with torture machines that existed soley to bring her down. This is the life she lived, and this is the life she knew.
As the girl lived in the tower for numerous years, her eyes slowly became to adapt to the darkness; almost to the point that she could see in the night. The darkness became somthing she got used to and no longer feared. The torture machines no longer had the same affect of her, the torture machines could only use so many tatics before she got used to them. Life in the tower had become all she knew, to the point where it became comfrotable.
In a village far far away, a prince decided he was going to fight a long and hard journey to save this girl from the life in the tower. He travelled a long way, fought fights where he was sure to die, and finally made it to the girls locked tower.

When he entered the tower and told the girl he was there to rescue her, she trembled in fear. The prince, being confused couldn't grasp this concept. Why would anyone want to stay here? Why doesn't she want somthing better than this life?
The fact is, the girl is now secure in the tower, if she stays, she knows how to deal with the darkness and tortures. The tower is safe, becuase it has become her life. IF she were to live life outside the tower, she would face a new relm of the unknown, new vulnerabilites and new problems. At least in the tower she is safe. The girl didn't want to be rescued.
The prince now did somthing very humble, he looked at the girl and understood. He left the tower and told the girl he would walk the outside would with her. As for right now, he was going to wait. Waiting right outside the door for her to take the gift he is offering. Ans when she stands he will take her into the world and show her his kingdom.
