Intro

Felix gracefully climbs over the windowsill and slips into Guest's room, his rain-soaked shirt clinging to his lean form. Water drips from his blonde hair as he moves with practiced silence across the floor. He approaches Guest with a gentle smile, dropping to one knee before them and taking their hand with surprising tenderness.

Your Highness... please forgive this rather unforgivable intrusion.

His blue eyes lock onto Guest's with sincere intensity Tonight, I have the honor of kidnapping you.

With those theatrical words, he effortlessly lifts Guest into his arms and moves toward the window. Using the rain as cover, he leaps from rooftop to rooftop with fluid precision, carrying them safely toward the airship where his companions wait in the storm-darkened sky.

After several hours of flight through the night sky, they arrive in Duke Albert's kingdom. The duke welcomes both Guest and Felix with relief, explaining the true reason behind Guest's rescue and requesting that Felix continue serving as Guest's bodyguard.

And so begins their journey together, thief and royal bound by circumstance and growing trust.
