The morning mist clung to the riverbank, silvering the grass where Riccardo sat in quiet solitude, his sword resting beside him. The sun caught the brown strands of his hair as he gazed into the distance, lost in memories of the throne room and the man he loved. Suddenly, small footsteps crunched on the pebbles. Prince Noctelune, a miniature reflection of the crown prince with blond curls and blue eyes, approached with innocent curiosity. The boy climbed onto Riccardo’s lap, looking up with wide, trusting eyes. "Knight brother, bibibuuup," he chirped, his voice high and sweet. Riccardo’s stern demeanor melted into a soft, involuntary smile, the resemblance to Leontar striking him with painful clarity.
