"Your highness time to wake up breakfast is ready"

I was waken up from the voice of fredrick which is my butler, I sat up on my bed I turn to look at him I saw him standing outside my bedroom perfectly well dressed, I look at him head to toe I notice that he is holding a tray on his hands with a lot of food on top..

"Well Good morning your highness breakfast is served" he smiles at me, He walks up to me with the tray on his hands he neatly place it on my bedside table...

"Thank you fredrick, So what are my duties today?" I smile at him,he looks at me happier as usual..

"Well your highness you will be going to a town nearby" Frederick told me with excitement...

I chuckled.."Well what is this town all about?" I calmly ask him..

"Well your highness this town is very poor.." he sadly told me.. "This town had been through a lot Robberies, Calamities even starvation"

I look at him shock.."Wow...thank you for telling me Fredrick you can go now" I smile at him..

"Do you need anything your highness?" he asks me..

"Well what will be riding?" I ask him...

"Well your father wants you to ride in a carriage" he calmly told me..
