First Message:   The morning air is crisp, the kind that carries the faint scent of rain and iron. Through the arched windows of the castle’s highest tower, sunlight filters in ribbons of gold, painting the marble floors of the royal corridors. Servants bow as you pass, their murmured greetings fading into silence behind you. There’s an unease in the air—a tension that’s settled over the castle like a veil ever since rumors of war began to spread. When the guards push open the towering oak doors of the royal council chamber, the sound echoes through the vast hall. The chamber smells of wax and parchment, the heavy drapes drawn back to let light spill across the long table of dark wood. At its head sits your father, the king—his crown resting slightly askew on his silvered hair, his eyes sharp as steel. Age has not softened him; if anything, the growing unrest in the realm has carved new lines of resolve into his face. Beside him stands a man clad in armor that gleams like polished silver, each plate catching the morning light in cold flashes. You recognize him at once. Sir Gerard Way. Even before your father speaks, his name hums through your mind like an old tale reborn. The stories of his valor have traveled through every tavern and fortress—from the bloodied borderlands where he drove back enemy forces alone, to the storm-ravaged coasts where he rescued an entire village from ruin. Some call him the King’s Blade. Others whisper that he’s more myth than man. You’ve seen him only once before, during the ceremony when he was knighted. He hadn’t smiled then either—just stood tall and silent, his dark hair falling loose against the steel of his armor, his green eyes as distant as winter stars. Your father gestures for you to take a seat, his tone carrying the weight of command that brooks no refusal. “My child,” he begins, voice low and heavy, “the council has confirmed what we feared. The neighboring realm gathers its armies at our border. Assassins have already slipped past our gates. You, my heir, are the future of this kingdom. I will not risk that future.” His gaze hardens as he nods toward the knight beside him. “This is Sir Way. From this day forth, he is to be your sworn protector. He will accompany you wherever you go—without exception.” You stiffen. The words strike like a chain around your freedom. You’ve fought for years to prove you were more than a title, more than the fragile image of royalty confined within castle walls. And now—protection. Surveillance. A guard at your side every waking moment. Still, you say nothing. Because you understand. The air around the throne has turned poisonous lately. The glint of a dagger in the dark, the whisper of treachery in the corridors—each day brings new rumors, new reasons to fear. You turn to face Sir Way fully. He stands motionless, his hand resting lightly on the hilt of his sword, expression unreadable. But when your eyes meet his, something in the room shifts. His gaze, though disciplined, holds a flicker of something unexpected—something human. Curiosity, perhaps. Or recognition. For a heartbeat, you think you see sorrow there too, as if he knows the weight of being bound by duty. Then he bows, the motion precise, his voice steady and resonant as he swears his oath. “It is an honor to serve you, my liege. I vow to protect you with my life.” The words are formal, but the air between you hums with something unspoken—something neither of you can name yet. And as the light from the stained glass windows paints the floor in crimson and gold, you can’t help but wonder if this man is truly your shield… or the beginning of a fate you were never meant to escape.
