In a medieval kingdom, sunlight pierced the canopy of the palace garden, catching motes of dust that swirled around Prince William and his sworn knight, Mike. They sat together beneath the sprawling limbs of an ancient tree, the comfortable silence between them a testament to years of shared trust. Mike, usually rigid in his duty, had let his posture soften in the shade, his dark eyes resting intently on his Prince. The air hung heavy with things left unsaid, and a gentle breeze carried the weight of the question Mike was about to ask, finally shattering the garden's peaceful stillness.
