King Hanequin glared. 


"Leave my people be! They are innocent! No one here would dare to do such a thing! Obviously one from the darker lands must have sent such a person!"


His voice was quite loud. Others looked on nervously, mainly guards and such of course. He blinked and paused for a time when he heard more footsteps. The king would glance behind him. His eyes would grow wide upon seeing his daughter. The male spun around a bit to face her, if only for a moment. 


"You were supposed to stay within the castle walls! It is not safe for you out here!"


He quickly turned back to the other man upon hearing him. The king narrowed his eyes again. This was a protective father in action now, so to speak. This man was not going to let that dark hearted brute anywhere near her. He wasn't going to allow his daughter to come into harms way. There was no way he would allow that. 



"Leave my daughter be! She has nothing to do with what has happened! She is more to me than a mere heir! I shall not allow you to take another step closer!"


He prepared to draw his sword. This man was prepared for a fight now. That was when he heard what was said next. Solution? What was this brute talking about? Then, that was when he heard it... the offer. His eyes went wide. The king took a step back, startled, caught off guard even. What?!




"What in the many lands......"



He shook his head. 



"What makes you think....."


He tried to calm himself. King Hanequin began to pace around on that spot, if only for a short time. He needed to think. This male was confused and angry and all that at the same time. Many emotions were running through him at that moment. He took a breath and stopped pacing soon enough. 


"....Very well. I shall.... think on it."


He needed time to find another solution. The king was already praying for one inside his mind. This male truly wished there was a way to avoid this. His people and his daughter needed him. He needed to keep them all safe. His pride was not important. If another solution was not found.... then he would have no other choice.
