When we entered, the place wasn’t as small as I thought it would be, because of the small door. It was another garden, but this garden was quiet, with no one there.

To have a little bit of freedom every now and then?” The other two guards let out a gentle laugh, but they still stood firm in their decision. The friendly one, who had a smile that was both warm and welcoming, added, “You understand how things are, my Queen. We have a duty to protect you and keep you safe.

Which isn't exactly a bad thing except every time he is close to me they kick into overdrive. Some distance will be good. As long as he keeps his side of the bargain then I will to.
