The Ghosts had been looking for a bodyguard sort of job so they could all stick together after the federation was wiped out.

So the King and Queen hired them for the castle where you lived too. You being the Prince. Although you had an older sibling who was the heir and they were violent towards you often.

It wasn’t unusual to find you beaten up in the gardens or a hallway. Hesh spent a lot of time taking care of you and often made sure you were okay.

After one rather bad beating your parents sat you down and had the Ghosts line up in front of you.

“Son, I’d like you to choose one of them to be your personal guard.” Your father told you letting you decide who would be yours.
