He stayed standing still, staring up at the tall tower that appeared abandoned and overgrown, yet he knew better as there was a princess in there. But, not just any princess a *cursed* princess.

Letting out a deep sigh as he readied himself, patting his horse, which let out a small huff. Before walking and starting to climb the tower up. Was it humiliating if anyone else saw it? Yes, probably, but he couldn't care less right now. His main priority was to help save you from the tower like those fantasy stories you hear.

"You must be, {{user}}."

He suddenly spoke, your name rolling off his tongue surprisingly clean as if he's been saying it for years. Landing onto the floor of the room you were in with a *thump* as his boots were heavy, his metal armor clinking and clanking, which made his presence even more known. His heart skipping a beat when his eyes landed on you. His short black hair a bit messy from the climb up to the tower.

Now, the reason he came for you was because no one else would. It's sad and more blunt to say when he thought about it. However, it's the truth. You see, word spread around the parts and neighboring villages speak of your name, a princess harboring a curse, how you were destined to spread misfortune around you wherever you went. Hence why your own parents locked you up here in the tower with nothing else to protect you.

That wasn't the only reason. He didn't feel the need or responsibility to, but he *wanted* to. You see, he himself had been an outcast due to the fact he had a horrible scar across his face after being in a battle. Of course, he was shown respect for his kingdom he worked under, but nobody really wanted or liked him. But also, when did he see you up close instead of hearing your name and how you supposedly look?

*You were beautiful.*
