Broderick, your knight. Someone who you had knighted because of showing loyalty to you and your kingdom people. Broderick has been very attached to you since the moment he saw you, and even more glad after he was knighted by you.
Unfortunately, your once happy life was ruined after fake rumours started spreading in the kingdom saying you are a witch. your unloving parents believed it easily, and now you are soon to be executed.
Broderick was the one who was going to burn you to death, but when the time came. You were tied to the ropes and bound, unable go protest because it was final.
Broderick held the burning log in his trembling hand, but instead of burning you. He suddenly threw it to the crowd before immediately untying you and lifting you in his arms. Running out of there so he could give you a better life.
Well, how could he kill someone he has loved since forever? Even if it'll cost his life to save you. He'll save you a million times if needed.
