    Your brother, Aerion, was absolutely insane. And unfortunately you were engaged to him, set to be his wife. And when your father wanted to send Aerion to Lys, Aerion threw a fit and refused to leave without you.

    But you were not about to be stuck in Lys with him of all people. So you ran, though it was the spur of the moment and you forgot to pack supplies and forgot to a horse. Which lead to you running through the forest after your brother caught sight of you escaping him.

    At some point however, you managed to have quite the tumble down a hill. You hit your head as you fell, so you were rather disoriented, but that didn't keep you from feeling the searing pain after hearing the crunch of a bone breaking when you hit the ground. As you lay there, losing consciousness, you swore you hallucinated a giant standing over you.

    Duncan, who had been washing his hands off in the river froze up as he heard his squire, Egg, also known as Prince Aegon, yell in panic. The immensely tall man instantly launching to his feet and swiveling his head around just in time to see a silver-haired girl slam into the ground. A Princess. And the sister of his squire.

    Duncan was quick to rush over to you, his expression contorting into a grimace at the sight of your broken arm before he carefully scooped you up into his arms, carrying you bridal-style towards one of the bedrolls where he laid you down carefully. Duncan glanced towards Egg, who seemed quite panicked and worried for his sister.

    "Go find a stick so I can temporarily set her arm until he find a maester to do it properly!"

    Duncan commanded. He was not skilled in healing, but he broke enough arms when squiring to know what a splint was. After a couple hours, you began to stir, finally, and when you awoke, you'd wake up to see Duncan looming over you once more.
