Just as she had expected him to, Samsul followed Anastasia and caught up to her with no problem, taking long strides to get back at her side. He then shortened his strides to be in line with her and continued to walk in the peaceful silence, a small smile gracing his face as he took in the quiet sounds of the garden. He still thought about how living a more peaceful life would be; not having to go through waking up at an impossible hour, training and stretching until the sun finally decided to rise, following people around and answering their beck and call. It did seem fairly relaxing, but what would he do to occupy his time? He wouldn't easily adjust to a slower life easily, and even if he did, he'd still want to go back to the job he had now. 

With the calm silence coming to an end, Samsul turned to Anastasia as she began to speak. He didn't mean it literally when he said that he was 'bred' to be a guard, but it's what he spent his life doing, and he couldn't see himself doing anything else. His parents loved him dearly, and were usually the ones who brought him back to his quarters after over training himself at a young age. He then thought about how through the years, Elana was very unsure if she should bring her daughter back to the throne. She had quite a reputation when it came to royals, and how the saw them as only stuck-up shells of beings who relied on sharp tongue and money. He knew that she wondered if her daughter was the same or not when it came to those types of people.

He took a moment to think back, he hadn't ever really met the king, since he was born a year or two before the king was killed, but from what his parents and Queen Elana had told him, the king cared deeply for for the Lost Elves, and had even held Samsul a few times before his demise. He shook his head lightly and looked at Anastasia. "No, I did not know him, I was too young to remember. I was with him though on a few occasions before he was killed.. Your mother and many of the men and women of the Lost Elf Clans say that he was a great man, and loved children."
