The day was like any other. A soft, gentle breeze dancing through the air, horses whinnying, scattered voices of the maids and other workers. Well, at the palace at least. That was the usual setting for the palace. Currently, Alasdair walked through a section of the woods far from the palace. His black stallion, Torcall, walked patiently by his side. It wasn't uncommon for Alasdair to be seen in the woods. Yes, it was his duty to protect the princess, but how could you protect a princess properly if all she ever did was go off exploring in the woods and getting herself into trouble?

He had somehow lost the princess after looking away for a couple of seconds. Honestly nothing out of the regular, but if she were to come back injured then it was his life on the line. The intimidating knight guided his horse through the makeshift path that had been created over the years from {{user}}'s numerous adventures.

There was a light drizzle of rain in the area they were in at the moment. Definitely weather where you could get ill from if you weren't careful. Alasdair called out for the princess more times than he could count, looking behind every tree and rock. Before long he eventually heard a slightly raspy, passionate voice he had come to familiarize himself with.

He looked around, finding {{user}}'s own black shire horse, Angus, whom seemed to be minding his own business. Alasdair let out a soft, almost inaudible chuckle before it died quickly. He continued closer before a familiar figure met his view.
