Arturia/Light Dress/2/Ruairi/Indifferent

From Create Your Own Story

You suppose there's really not much point speculating about all this.

You shrug. "I suppose we'll find out soon enough," you say, and board the carriage feeling bored. To your surprise, Duran climbs in after you, and sits on the seat across from you.

You stare for a moment. He shuts the door and the carriage starts moving. "hmm, never seen you get in a carriage before" you say finally.

He shakes his head. "We're only supposed to escort you to the inn at the nearest village, Lord Ruairi's men are supposed to take over from there". He smirks "We feel we can't just leave our cute little princess alone tough, so if you'll have us, all of the guards volunteered to remain in your service."

Having nothing better to do, you throw a tantrum over his calling you a cute little princess, which earns you a loud laugh from Duran and the two of you have a pillow fight with the interior of the carriage.

After having fun for a while, you get back to the matter at hand. "You said us? You're willing to stay at my side as well?".

"I'm one of the guards, aren't I?" he says lightly.

"But- you've been in father's service for over 20 years and are a personal friend of his. Will he even be able to get by without you?"

He throws back his head and laughs. "You aren't getting rid of me that easily, lass! Yer father is a capable king, picked 'im as my lord fer a reason. 'Sides, someone's gotta keep you in line." You roll your eyes.

It occurs to you that perhaps you could learn one more thing about this mysterious Lord. Although you don't really care.
