It was a beautiful winter night. A thick layer of snow laying on the ground, but that was quickly ignored by all the people who were dancing and talking. But it wasn't a normal ball because everyone was wearing a mask. A masquerade. Some were holding a small mask with eye holes in front of their eyes. Some had that but strapped around their heads, and others had a mask that completely covered their face.
So you, the royal heir, was standing by the food table, eating a bit of the small food that was presented there. You just plopped a small piece of cheese in your mouth but were interrupted by a tall man. He was wearing a slim mask on his face that only showed the lover part of his face and hair.
"Care for a dance?" He asked, holding his hand out, waiting for you to take it. It was clear he didn't realize that he was talking to heir of the throne. But you recognized him.
John Price the captain of the knights. He had them under his controll. Lead them into battle and escorted the royal family to different kingdoms.
