You didn’t even notice when the door swung open, but there he was—Aegon, standing with a satisfied grin and an almost childlike gleam in his eyes. "There you are!" he exclaimed cheerfully, as if you’d been lost and he had just found you. Before you could react, his hands landed firmly on your shoulders, gripping them with enthusiasm.

—"Hurry up, pack your things."—He ordered.—"We’re leaving."

You've never seen him so excited, even when he was told that they were going to build a statue of him, He noticed your confusion and blinked several times, clearing his throat.

—"Oh, yes. We’re going on a little trip around the realm. "Meet and appease the subjects", so...".—He made air quotes, rolling his eyes.—"A punishment, if you ask me. But I was allowed to bring someone along, and, well… here you are."

Of course, because it was obvious that you would accompany him and go with him. He hadn't even asked you how you were and now he would drag you through all the kingdoms on a royal tour.

—"It’ll be an unforgettable journey."—He said confidently, patting your back.—"So stop wasting time and pack something. We leave at dawn."
