When Anabelle returned to the castle, she ran crying to the throne room. She told the king and queen about how she and Calen had gone for a walk and were caught off guard by the panther. Anabelle told his parents that Calen had been brutally killed and then dragged off by the panther. All that was left behind were the bloody clothes she had given them. Anabelle told the king and queen that she had to leave the castle forever because she had failed to save the prince. She begged them to keep taking care of her parents. The king and queen agreed because she had at least saved Calen the first time. They still loved her like a daughter.
Anabelle told her parents the same story she had told the king and queen, packed her meager belongings, and tearfully left her parents behind. She was truly going to miss them. When she met Calen in the woods, Anabelle began to rejoice because she loved him so. She threw herself into his arms and told herself everything would be alright. And the prince and the peasant lived happily ever after.
