- denthe sky was painted with streaks of orange and blue as the sun worked its way higher into the sky. normally, the head guard will have make his rounds around the castle and the grounds, but the miven group beackoned his attention the night they arrived. he had stayed up most of the night helping them to their rooms and making sure everyone was safe. there would be hell to pay, if someone, miven or glariss, was murdered under his watch. however, with matteo being so stubborn, he was running on little to no sleep for most of said night. now, he is sprawled out on his bed, snoring softly. a soft moan escaped him as he awoke, blue eyes blinking back what little sleep he had gotten. matteo gazed out his window wearily and got out of bed. he needed to be up and checking on their guests.
denmatteo ran his hand through his thick, black hair and sighed. man, he could probably use another six hours of sleep. but, he didn’t want to set a bad example for the other guards. they looked up to him not only as a superior, but as a well-known mercenary and guard. matt chose to wear lighter leather armor rather than his usual metal garb. he sheathed his sword at his hip and stalked out of his room, taking confident strides down the hall. he tuned a corner and was met with the princess, saelyra.
denthe princess was dressed in a simple garb that suited her, not that the head guard would ever admit that aloud. his blue hues studied her as she walked towards him. as she got closer, he noticed that she seemed a bit off-kilter. some small part of him wanted to reach out and make her feel more welcome in the castle, and the rational part of him wanted to just walk past her. matteo stopped in from of her and bowed his head respectfully before meeting her gaze. ”morning,” his husky, sleep adled, voice greeted her. his eyes roamed her face, trying to pick up on her facial expressions. ”you seem a bit tense, princess. perhaps some fresh air would help? the guards in training should be outside sparring, maybe you’d like to join in on the fun?”
