Lukaz knew that, despite his high status in the Eddisian court, that his presence was to be requested, not imposed upon, so he thusly stayed away from the royal residence if he could control it. But it just so happened that sometimes he needed to gather materials for his spells that could only be found there. He usually didn’t see ether the king or the queen on these brief trips inside those walls, much less when he passed the couple’s bedchambers—

That’s when his eyes meet with Ayaan’s, quite an accident on his part. May as well be gracious and greet his queen face-to-face.

“Your highness—” Lukaz says, bowing just as quickly as he enters the other’s space. He always felt such immense pressure when in the presence of his royals, even though he’d been around them for so many years now and was in fact quite a bit older than them. Hell, he remembered the king’s own father, and his father...

Ayaan, though, was the most beautiful queen in he’d known in his existence.
