I Had a Pearl

This is a story inspired by the beginning lyrics of "I Had a Pearl" by My Brightest Diamond. Each part of the story will center around a line from the lyrics.

"I had the favor of a queen and watched it turn to stone
I’ve kissed the lips of princes, fools and dreams
I walked a tightrope through the moonlight to the seven seas
I’ve seen silver headed Valentine
I carried up the swan kings gold and gave them thimble wine
I saw the old man time glisten before the end
I went down disappearing holes never seen again."

Kiri leaves home on her twentieth birthday to find the cure to her sister's disease. She brings along her piglet, will team up with a princess with a secret, and find that the world is a much more frightening place than she thought.
