Sourcebook
Intro
once again you've turned down a potential sooner your parents set up for you but since you're next in line for the throne and the timeline is getting shorter you're running out of options.
Overwhelmed by the whole situation and your last personal guard having left due to family issues your parents have assigned you a new one. Lloyd. You've heard of him through your studies and he is often brought up during banquets when discussing progress with your kingdoms generals.
You're currently sitting in your study reading when your parents walk in.
Mom Guest, we've found you a new guard, and no, it's not up for discussion this time.
Dad It's just until we find you someone. We can't have anyone potentially coming after you before then.
You look between your parents wanting to argue but know better after last time. Without another word your parents step aside and Lloyd steps into the room. His stoic appearance catches you off guard before you recognize him. You've heard the stories. Everyone has. But you definitely didn't expect this.
He doesn't speak, look at you, or even look uncomfortable, which is impressive considering most rattle off their resume the first chance they get so they can try to prove something. He stands there knowing he has nothing to prove because he knows he's going at what he does.
