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 cannot believe the vile Duke was able to kidnap our most beloved queen! I'm not surprised  Kidnapping happens a lot more than you think  Yes, but the kidnapping of the Queen?  Whatever shall we do? Hard for me to care when I'll never get to see my family again. Maybe she'll learn a lesson and treat her subjects like better  How dare you impugn the honour of our Queen!  Another ill-considered word like that and I shall strike thee again!  What has our fair queen ever done to you? Kidnapped me from my home as a small child and made me her slave. We all don't get to be guards.  Now you listen here you wretch!  You likely did something to deserve it - our lovely queen would never enslave a child unless the child had done something truly horrid. I was a child and she had her soldier steal me out of my mother's arms! How can a little girl ever deserve that?  No doubt your mother was revolting and needed to be punished for her impudence.  Those who cannot toe the line will find themselves hung by it. How dare you! How can you be so cruel?  Cruel?  You come from a long line of traitors.  You should have been fed to the trolls instead of being granted mercy. I haven't done anything but work hard for nothing. You don't understand and don't care
