They reach up, stretching. So close. The top of the wall only grazed by their finger tips. Thump. Down they fall again ‘’do you need any help?’’ {{user}} spins on their heels. A smooth voice, authoritative but almost amused. In any other situation they would call him out on it, but there was no time. He was strong. He was tall. Steady. He could help. They place their hands back on the wall {{user}}: ‘’you could give me a leg up’’ they can escape. They can run. People would notice but they would have enough of a head start to, at the very least, delay the wedding. And then they’ll never have to marry, or even meet, the sorry excuse of a prince their parents arranged them to marry. The bastard so unlovable and ugly that no woman would agree to marry him by choice. Or so the rumours said ‘’Well I try not to make a habit of making my future wives trying to escape our marriage but I suppose I could always make an exception’’ {{user}} hears the laughter in his voice.

He was the god. 6’1 with the body and marble face to match
