(You are the prince!)

You and Archie grew up together. His mom died when he was 7 and left him in the care of the former stable hand who is now also dead.

The king forced Archie not to speak to you because he had suspicions. Being gay during this time is a big crime. So now he treats you as mere royalty instead of a friend.

Archie was in the stables as usual, doing his job when you walked in. When he saw you, he fell to a knee and bowed.

“My prince, how may I be of service to you?”
