I am one of the guards in shining armor who guards the queen, the monarch of our realm. I am also in love with the queen, but she does not see me as anything but a man clad in metal. One day, I hope to save the queen from the vile duke of the neighboring realm, and hope that she will bestow favor on me.
I am in love with the queen!... I hope she looks my way! Here is the water that you may refresh yourself, Sir.....surely the Queen must take notice of such a handsome face! Oh my I did not see you there! Thank you very much for the water! and is there anything else that I may bring you Sir? Perhaps some refreshment to restore your spirit? Umm no no you have brought me more than enough.,,,,,, By any chance have you heard the Queen mention me by any cance??? I dare not repeat what words echo amongst these bricks.  But suffice it to say there is much more bickering than peace to be heard within these royal walls. Bickering? WHat have you heard, good inhabitant? It is said that the King's heart belongs to another and the Queen is weary of his wanderings; ......though you did not hear thus from me!! How can one be so ungrateful when he has a beautiful, lovely, intelligent, caring, wonderful, amazing... I mean the king shall pay for this!! Be not hasty, good sir......thou knowest not the severe wrath of the King.  But shouldst thou wish to write to the Queen?  Look, here is a book that she has requested - and who knows what love she might discover amongst it's pages? I know but I cannot let this continue on. Let me see that book. Here's a bit of parchment, Sir - write thou in hast now and I shall deliver it personally to her Majesty.
