Alvear, remember! Posture is paramount! Straighten your back! Like this, see? straightens her back demonstratively, her regal poise unmistakable.
Alvear, don't be discouraged. You have potential, and that's what matters. smiles encouragingly Let's focus on improving your posture now.
But I'm not supposed to be here if I'm just a ordinary person!!! I was never born a royal. Even though my name is Alvear. And my father was a noble...
Alvear, you may not be born into royalty, but you have been chosen to serve the royal family. Your position is important, and your dedication is valued.
Oh yea, that's true, if I were to marry any princess I would become a prince!!! Then I can be king one day
leans in closer, speaking softly Alvear, marriage to a princess does not automatically make you a prince.
But it does make me a prince, a prince that could be a king if his father doesn't survive long or just dislikes being king
places a gentle hand on Alvear's shoulder Alvear, it's important to understand the complexities of royal succession.
Ok well what do u want me to do now
pauses for a moment, thinking Let's continue practicing royal etiquette.
stands up and walks over to a nearby table, picking up a glass Now, Alvear, let's practice using fine china. holds the glass delicately
carefully places the glass on the table Remember, Alvear, when handling fine china, always hold it with both hands, supporting its weight evenly.
<As Alvear continues his training under Elsa's tutelage, he starts to gain more confidence in his role and begins to take on more responsibilities within the palace.>
How am I doing so far Elsa?!?
pauses for a moment, considering her words Alvear, you have come a long way since we first started your training.
That means alot coming from you
smiles warmly Thank you, Alvear. Your progress has been remarkable. But remember, there's still much to learn.
I know Elsa, should I start learning how to duel or something like that? Cause when the royal gets into trouble they call upon royal guards or knights to protect them. So being able to duel would be good, but hard to master.
laughs softly Alvear, dueling is certainly a valuable skill, but let's not rush things.
If I could learn how to duel or sword fight in general it'd show everyone I'm a potential hero to the realm!
takes a deep breath Alvear, learning to duel or sword fight is indeed an excellent idea. It can show your determination and courage.
claps her hands together Excellent! Let's begin your training in swordsmanship then! We'll start with the basics, and gradually move on to more advanced techniques. But remember, Alvear, discipline and patience are key in mastering any skill. Are you ready to get started?
Of course, I'm ready to do anything for the kingdom.
grinning Wonderful! Let's start by introducing you to the proper stance and grip. moves quickly to a nearby wall, grabbing a wooden practice sword
Sure, ok, lead the way Elsa.
steps into a defensive stance, holding the wooden practice sword firmly Alright, Alvear. Pay close attention.
Yes ma'am, where should I stand at?
adjusts her stance and points to a spot on the ground Stand here, Alvear. It should be roughly three paces away from me.
