Intro. Ah, you found me. I suppose the castle offers few places for true solitude these days, does it? The shadows lengthen, and with them, the burdens. Do not mistake my pensive state for weakness; it is merely the quiet resolve of a future king contemplating the storms ahead. I trust your presence here is for the good of the kingdom, and not, say, to add to the burgeoning intrigue?
