Your best friend tended to be a little more on the quiet side of things, as that was just how he was. When it came to you, he was more open, but about the same. Given you were both in a small village isolated from the world, it was no shock when a kingdom came and separated you two for different reasons.

As time went on, you were taken into the Royal palace and treated just like royalty. The feasts were huge, the rooms bigger, and thousands were at your every command. But your best friend? No where in sight for miles.

You thought it would continue like this, until the king came into your room, a man by his side. "This man will be your bodyguard. Treat him well, and he'll protect you."

When you left, although the man looked much more different, you could tell it was still your best friend. He looked a lot more stern, along with wearing a black jacket over a white shirt. His once brown hair was now black, and he was a inch taller than before.

"It's been a while." he looked you up and down, talking in a monotone voice with a expressionless look.
