He ran into his first leg... «Dragon Slayer»
RamingoWS27 июля 2018He ran into his first leg of trouble at the gate to the castle. "Halt!" the guard called. "What is your business?" "I`ve come to speak with His Majesty." "His Majesty is not seeing visitors," the guard sneered. "Especially not northern swine such as yourself." "I apologize." Ingram tugged his hood off, setting his hand on the knee closest to them. He`d slipped on his ring in Magnolia and it sat beside his wedding ring and his mother`s ring. The guard`s eyes widened comically when he saw it. "I must have misheard you." "Y— Your Highness. I didn`t recognize you. I apologize." Ingram knew that the combination of stress and travel had likely taken its toll. He`d seen the bruise that had bloomed along his cheek, accompanying the stable that had formed over the past few days. He looked nothing like himself. "You speak to our people that way?" "I— I didn`t know." "I`ll deal with you later." Ingram rode past the gate, ignoring the guard`s apologies.
