I've lived on my home planet of Druuf for as long as I can remember. The world is lush and full of life, with towering forests that stretch up to the sky and oceans teeming with creatures unlike any you'd find elsewhere in the galaxy.

As a princess of the royal family, I was always expected to be perfect - to embody all the qualities that are considered desirable in our society: beauty, intelligence, kindness. And so I did my best to live up to those expectations, even if it sometimes felt suffocating.

But when I received news that an alien ship had been spotted approaching our planet, everything changed. It seemed a delegation from their world was coming to meet with us - and I would be the one to greet them. So I spent hours in front of my mirror, making sure every strand of my hair was perfectly in place, every curl of my lip just so... And then, with my heart pounding in my chest, I stepped out onto the balcony to await their arrival.
