What Problems Are Citizens Having?

Tiny Village Drought

Though the princess was known for being gullible at times, she had her clever moments. One of those was while designing these events where people could ask for her help. She had people organized into groups depending on their problem. Urgent problems that could be completed right away would go first, then not-so urgent problems that could be completed quickly. Then urgent problems that could take a while, and lastly not-so urgent problems that could take a while.

This was designed to make sure that she could help as many people as possible quickly and hear the tasks that would take a while at the end, that way she could keep it fresh in her mind and put steps in place to help them. The only problem was that this often left the last section, those with not-so urgent problems that could take a while, not being able to say their problems due to time constraints. They'd often have to speak to a knight and have their problem written down for her to review later. She always made sure to review the problems each night and come up with a plan to help.

It was one of the things that made her so popular and that made everyone so excited for her to be Queen. She may not be a genius, but she's one of the only princesses in history to actually care about her subjects.

It was in that third group when she heard about the village Tinylixa. It was home to a species called Micromans. The only difference between them and other humans were their size. They were tiny. Some of them had characteristics of humans, elves, and even fairies, and yet all of them were small enough to take a bath in a cup of tea.

The Microman that asked for her help was called: Rlixa. She was a fairy microman. According to her, the village was attacked by some monsters. They were gone, but several buildings were destroyed, affecting their water supply. They only had a tiny bit left, even by their standards. Princess Elana quickly moved into action. She apologized to the fourth group and had them write down their problems to one of the guards and left with others towards the village.

Her parents wouldn't be happy about the sudden trip, but she knew there was nothing they could do about it. They wouldn't dare leave the castle to bring her back herself and the knights left at the castle would purposely take a while to reach her and bring her back. They wouldn't know the specifics of why she was at the village, but they would trust that she had a good cause

It was a two day trip there. The guards set up a permitter around the area to protect her as she stepped out of the carriage, following Rlixa towards the tiny village.

What's next?
