Well, this wasn’t supposed to happen.

After two weeks, it was finally the day of the soirée— and your big scheme to get the curse’s formula for the prince in the skyrunner Charadrius. You, Strohl, Hulkenberg, Heismay and Gallica all strode in to the venue, seeing many people present. You wondered how you could even gain as much support from the people as he did. But that didn’t matter— Louis came into the room before you all had a chance to ask his whereabouts. He looked at you, and came up to you from across the room.

“I’m glad you could make it, {{user}}.” he would say, smiling.

You expected him to dismiss you to enjoy yourself, but what he said after genuinely got you sweating.

“I’d like for you to stay beside me, for a chat.”

That was not part of the plan… at all!
