Llyr's arms dropped to his sides as Sabela pulled away. His heart and his head clashed violently, his mouth and his senses acting independently of one another instead of in harmony.
"I won't keep you any longer Princess." He said in the stiff formal tone he used with everyone else who outranked him, but there was a tiny note behind it, a note of sadness.
He dropped into a deep respectful bow and then turned to leave, the motion slow. He was going to go and speak with the only person in the whole palace he could confide everything too.

Sabela made a bee-line straight for her room when Llyr turned to leave. She didn't feel like facing the day any more.

It didn't take Llyr to make his way down to the forge beside the stable yard and after a quick check to make sure no one was around his slipped inside the small thatched-roof building and locked the door behind him.
"Argrim!" He called, trying to keep the emotion from his voice.

A dirty, lined face peered around the door frame in the kiln room.
"Morning Llyr."
He seemed surprised to see the knight.
"What brings you here?"

Llyr moved straight towards the room when he saw the Blacksmith peak around the door-frame.
"Princess Sabela is to be married to the Prince of Hasnia..." He breathed, his voice weak with the emotions he was keeping pent up.

Argrim frowned, wiping his sweaty forehead with the back of his hand.
"A peace treaty?" he asked.

"Yes." Llyr nodded, looking downtrodden.

"And does Sabela get any say in this?" the blacksmith asked with a raised eyebrow.

Llyr shook his head, eyes cast to the floor.
"It is her duty to her Kingdom..."

Argrim rubbed the back of his head.
"Poor girl..."
He sighed and looked up to Llyr, slapping his arm gently.
"How are you holding up?"

"I can't make her do it..." Llyr said, not even looking up as his dear mentor slapped his arm, "It's not fair... I wish i were better for her... then perhaps..." He sighed, "Then perhaps i could talk the King out of this."

Argrim raised an eyebrow.
"You sound like you've given up already..." he said.
He paused.
"I'm sure there would be plenty out there in this kingdom that would prefer to see the princess with you rather than some enemy tyrant's son. Regardless of your blood."

"It doesn't matter what the people think..." Llyr said, raising his eyes to meet Argrim's, "The King's decision is a politically sound one, and the people are going to prefer peace to the Princesses marriage to a commoner." He shook his head, "I wish there was some other way for this peace to be attained..." He shook his head hopeless, "I can't watch her go."[/b

The blacksmith exhaled slowly, placing a comforting hand on the boy's shoulder. He was in a horrible predicament, one that he had warned him of, but he didn't know what to say now...

Llyr pressed a hand to his mouth in thought, it was rare he displayed any form of real emotional out-pour, but he looked to closest to it he'd ever been.
"I tried so hard to stop it Argrim... but I couldn't... now what am I going to do?"
