Radio
It was said that there were some artifacts left of the old world in the Endless Forest. Those who lived in the Forest before the deer inhabited it. These things were not necessarily uncommon, but rather...buried in the dirt where the deer never bothered to dig.
Radio sat in the graveyard of the old Ruins. He watched the butterflies fluttering in the nearby flower patches, and observed the occasional deer run by. He wanted something today, he wanted to talk to someone. But the butterflies didn't speak to him, and those deer that ran by didn't stop long enough to say hello. He shifted just a bit, and began to close his eyes.
"Hello? Are you there?"
Radio opened his eyes, looking around. "zzzzzZZZ Did I just hear zomething? ZZZzzzzz", he asked, waiting for a response. Nothing at first, he settled and began to close his eyes again.
"Yes, hello there. Down here!"
The deer's ears perked, he now looked near the ground, where there just happened to be a small, odd patch of dirt that seemed out of place, just behind one of the tombstones. He reached out and began to dig a little, his hoof catching something. He pulled up, and a small golden locket on a chain emerged from the ground. He lifted it up to his face, tilting his head. "zzzzzZZZ Did you juzt...zpeak to me? ZZZzzzz", he asked.
The locket was heart-shaped, and opened. Inside was an image of a beautiful woman, and she was actually moving inside of the thing. She smiled to the deer and replied, "Yes, at long last someone found me! My name is Princess Genevieve, I am of the royal family who ruled this land so long ago."
Radio tilted his head the other way, "zzzzzZZZ Royal family? Do you mean...zomeone who lived in a caztle?
