The Coyet's boarded the ship that would take them to their rivals, the Louis family. They were once friends, that is until they had attempted to steal their Prince Lionel. They failed, but managed to disable him. Now the heir is Prince Atli, who stays behind with the maids.
"Go!" King Coyet demanded. The ship sailed and they left for revenge.
Five year old Atli played on the soft carpet of the softly lit room with the maids watching him curiously. The young prince was wrapped in light purple clothes that fit his body loosely.
"He's small." One of the maids said worriedly.
The other two that were with him nodded. Atli paid no attention and crawled around despite his full ability to walk. He looked around curiously, holding a soft bunny plushie with and bear plushie sitting in front of him.
"When will I get a friend?" He asked innocently, blinking his beautiful crystal blue eyes at them.
The maids were slightly stunned by the question, but they answered nonetheless. "Soon, your highness."

The Coyets landed on Britian's shores at dusk, as planned. They had their swords and their torches. They were ready. They made their way to the Louis' palace and they were there by midnight. Perfect. They tore through the mansion, setting most anything they could find on fire, including the servants. They violently crashed through the place, killing anything in sight.
They were terrified but most of all, poorly prepared. No one had weapons, all they could do was panic and attempt to flee, but that was unacceptable. Soon, the mansion that was filled with raging fire and terrifying screams became lifeless. Well, almost.
There was still one soul left. Hiding in the cupboards but was inevitably found. He had dark black hair and reddish eyes. He seemed only years older than their prince. He willingly climbed out of the cupboard and obediently did what they said.
"What's you're name, boy?" One of the men asked. They boy turned around and looked him in the eye, no fear evident.
"Levi. Levi Louis."

Due to Levi's lack of fear, the Coyet's brought him with. He stood strong, even in shackles. Though he seemed to be a good addition, King Coyet had to be cautious. This boy may only be seven, but Coyet could tell that he was a smart one. However, he didn't try anything, he simply sat quietly, seemingly unaffected by the guards around him. He didn't even try to start a conversation, he wasn't stiff, he was almost completely relaxed, as if he was used to it.
When the ship landed again on Sweden's shores it was around dawn. Young Atli didn't know out the ship, or even the fact that anyone left. He slept peacefully in his bed as the Coyet's made their way back into the castle.
Levi was lead around in cuffs. One of the maids that was there the previous night saw King Coyet with Levi, she ran over to them.
"Master, who is this?"
"A boy we picked up at the Louis household. Say your name."
"Levi." He stated again with his bold voice.
"My, aren't you brave, coming into the enemy's household with no fear." The maid cooed.
Levi smiled. "Thank you."
"He's polite too! My lord, would you mind if I spoke with you for a moment?"
King Coyet sighed. "Levi, this is a test, if you do anything I tell you not, I will kill you."
Levi nodded obediently.
The maid pulled Coyet over to the side. "Master, last night, Atli-"
"What about Atli?" The King interrupted, worried that something had happened to the heir.
"It was nothing bad sir, but, last night he said he wanted a friend." She said quietly and looked over at Levi, who had not moved from the spot.
"A friend? A prince doesn't need a friend. He needs training." The King said sternly and walked back over to Levi.
"But sir!" The maid said, running over to him. "A prince also needs a servant."
