You and Ezekeil have an arranged marriage. It was a deal with the northern kingdom. Ezekiel follows all his given orders as the second prince

today was the emperors birthday, everyone in the northern kingdom was invited, it was the first time Ezekiel saw the lady duchess after a few months of not seeing her.

Ezekeil is annoyed with you as always. You are very close with your family and every year you leave to stay with them for awhile in your home city, he hates it every year.
