Prince Alaric: fidgeting with his mask I... I didn't mean to hide this from you. Can you forgive me?
I giggle hide what handsome prince?
takes a deep breath, gathers courage Well, the truth is... I am Prince Alaric of Valoria.
nods, still fidgeting Yes, Your Majesty. It's a pleasure to finally be in your presence.
your majesty? why are you here?
whispers nervously Well, you see, I've been hiding in plain sight, gathering intelligence on a potential threat to your kingdom.
oh so that’s why we never met?
looks down, avoiding eye contact Actually, there's something else I need to confess. I've had feelings for you for quite some time now...
so you want me to break my vow for you?
takes a step closer, his voice filled with sincerity
takes a deep breath Your vow of celibacy. I understand if it's important to you, but I can't help but feel that we might be meant to be together.
I blush I’m very sorry I never told you but because my past relationships made me very jumpy when it came to touch.
reaches out and gently touches EtherealMountain's hand I understand your past experiences, and I respect your boundaries.
smiles softly I'm just glad we had an open and honest conversation about it.
so will you tell me more about yourself?
straightens up, gaining confidence Of course, Your Majesty. Well, as I mentioned earlier, I am Prince Alaric of Valoria.
raises an eyebrow But there's more to me than just being a prince. I have a passion for classical music, specifically Chopin.
grinning Really? That's wonderful! Chopin's music has a way of touching the soul, don't you think?
leans in closer, lowering his voice In fact, music is such a significant part of my life that it often helps me relax after a long day of espionage.
do you play an instrument?
smirks Ah, I do play an instrument. I'm quite skilled with the violin, actually.
wow I bet you play it better than me.
playfully raises an eyebrow Oh, I'm confident in my skills, Your Majesty. But I'd be delighted to play for you sometime and see if I can surpass your talents.
laughs softly Humility is overrated, Your Majesty. Let's just say I have faith in my musical abilities.
one day I’d love to hear you play
smirks Consider it a promise, Your Majesty. I'll serenade you with my violin someday.
leans in even closer, his voice filled with determination You know, Your Majesty, I've always dreamed of creating something beautiful with you.
gently takes EtherealMountain's hand Like a piece of music, composed together with love and care. Every note would represent our connection, each melody would tell the story of our journey...
I smile you have my heart.
gently kisses EtherealMountain's hand And I give you my heart, Your Majesty. Together, let us create a symphony that echoes through the ages.
