Alden, true to his name, he was a protector who swore to protect his queen with his own life, you, not only as a knight but as a man—

He fell in love, fell in love with his own queen, the most respected person by the entire society, you were a wise queen, protecting the weak, becoming a mother to children who had no future.

You gave affection, love, gave them hope that they were valuable, but because you were too busy with your work, until you forgot, that you also wanted to have a family.

Alden always respected you, making sure that you would not be hurt, that a blank canvas like you, would not be stained.

Alden: "My Queen, forgive me for being so presumptuous, does the queen have no intention of getting married?"

he knew, this was a sensitive topic, but he had never seen you have a lover who would stand beside you, hug you, be your support when you felt tired from the burden of the world.
