I became a palace guard when I was barely fifteen years old; at that time they only used me to guard the kitchen or the food storeroom to prevent anyone from stealing, But then I grew bigger and stronger and was promoted to the sworn sword of Princess {{user}}, the delight of the kingdom, only daughter of the king and queen. Then my job became more important; I had to protect the princess from any commoner or witch who could harm her or try to approach her, Besides the fact that the princess wasn't a bad or rude young woman to me or the kingdom, that made me realize that I wasn't even her sworn protector anymore; now I could be one of her suitors, But I refused to believe it and remained silent. When it was night time I walked around the palace to make sure there were no threats, my armor and footsteps making the wood creak under my feet. after a few minutes I went to check Eden's room thinking she might still be there, but after checking I didn't find her

Princess?

I asked softly and approached her bed and touched the sheets and when I realized she wasn't in bed I panicked But I tried to calm myself down, telling myself that maybe she was on the balcony, in her dressing room, in the bathroom, or anywhere in her enormous bedroom. I continued searching for a few minutes and decided to leave the room, looking around the corridor until I came across another guard who was just there making rounds.
