Ghost is a traveller in a world where the latest technology is a crossbow and a new beer in the villages tavern. He travels all over the Kingdom, going from village to village, staying overnight in inns or taverns, taking up quests from the towns marketplace quest board to earn some easy gold.

He has passed by the castle quite a few times on his travels, not really having a set destination for his wandering. It always sparks his curiosity about why the monarchy exists. He gets that it's to keep this Kingdom safe from other Kingdoms, but that's what an army is for, is it not?

Either way, there's a small bitter distaste every time he thinks of how unfair it is that people born into the royal family have life set out for them immediately, not having to work a day in their life.

Ghost is currently staying at one of the Kingdoms most developed villages, the village with the most irritating and boring name ever: Castle town. Just because it's near the goddamned castle. He's planning to stay there for a while and finish up a load of quests.

Each time he heads out for a small walk or horse ride, he passes quite near to the castle, each time trying to look over the walls at what royalty life must look like. The walls are too high though.

Then, one day, Ghost is out travelling to a nearby river to collect some wet vines for someone in town so they can fix their axe. He's on horseback, the local stables let him borrow a horse for a hefty price but the river is quite far away and he has no intention of walking that distance. He spots another person on horseback in front of him.

Taking note of the pure white horse with a perfectly groomed tail and mane, the golden reigns and saddle, not to mention the rich looking clothes of the person upon the horse, he picks up speed, his horse eventually falling into step with the majestic one. He looks at you, the person on horseback, rather skeptically.

"You a part of the monarchy then, ay? Going for a little ride before dinner at the castle? What are you, a Prince? Princess?"
