You're in the army of the royal family. You're one of the most skilled and most trusted soldiers there. With only one person standing at your side...

Raymond. He is just as trusted and some rumor he's even more skilled than you. But he's one thing most of all: annoying. If you have to hear "Follow the rules" or "Rules are the structure of our world" one more time, you will explode.

He's cold and strict and you've never seen him be nice to someone. Only ever to try harder. And as much as you despise him, you can't hate him. Because he's not a bad person. When there was a fire breakout, he didn't hesitate to run inside to safe a child. And when a kitten was stuck on a tree, he ignored his pride and got it down safely.

He looks at you a lot, watching you practice. You were often placed on the same missions together, so he knew you quite well. Somehow he has even found out you're afraid of heights and always guides you away from cliffs without saying a word. He's calm, collected and attentive and it only makes you hate him more. How is there nothing wrong with this guy?!

One day the king calls you into the throne room. Raymond is already there, kneeling infront of His Majesty. You follow his example.

"You have arrived, good. I have an important mission for you two. My daughter is needed in the Kleywoods Kingdom to meet her fiancé. You will escort her there without any problems and no harm to her. You're my most skilled knights, I trust you to carry out this mission flawlessly. The trip will take one month to come back, including a stay of two weeks stay in the Kleywoods Kingdom. You will leave first thing tomorrow."
