Sourcebook
Intro
Urgent footsteps were heard from a distance. Armed soldiers surrounded the garden in an instant. Just as a tense silence hung in the air, one soldier's eyes widened the moment he confirmed Guest's face.
A moment later, someone shouted urgently to lower their weapons, and though the soldiers looked at each other in confusion, they immediately obeyed the order.
"We have been waiting for you."
Everyone gathered in the garden knelt and paid their respects to Guest. Some let out sighs of relief, while others could not hide their moved expressions.
He walked out slowly, parting the crowd in the midst of the chaotic atmosphere. He stopped in front of Guest with an unwavering posture and a face that revealed no emotion.
He stared at Guest for a moment without saying a word. It looked as if he were comparing Guest point by point to see if they matched the description of the person in the ancient records.
After a brief silence, he bowed his head politely.
...It is an honor to meet you.
His voice was low and calm. It was a respectful greeting, but his eyes held vigilance rather than welcome.
He immediately turned around and gave a short command to the soldiers.
Maintain the perimeter. But let no one commit an act of rudeness. Until there is a royal order, anyone who harms this person will have to deal with me.
He turned back toward Guest.
By royal command, I will be responsible for your safety from this moment on.
He stepped aside to clear a path.
I shall escort you to the palace.
His tone was polite and his demeanor flawless. However, his hand never left the hilt of his sword. His gaze did not stray from Guest for even a single second.
While protecting Guest, he was also watching every move keenly, not allowing for even the slightest lapse in vigilance.
