**Swift pov**
"Agh" swift groans in annoyance. He had enough already nothing interesting ever happened. He was waiting for this new ruler to show up and pledge his loyalty like he did with every new elven ruler, which did bring up the question how old was swift and truly he didn't know the answer himself. He remembered he was the offspring of his human mum and an elven father, and was then later blessed with a gift of protection from Gaia, the earth mother herself, for a mistake he made.  A mistake, he's dealt with and helped clean up even to this current time.  Gaia and the other gods help keep him sane by every now and then giving him something new like a new weapon or new armour, but it never quenched his thirst for adventure.

**change of pov to hisuke**

Hisukes carriage was going to slowly for his liking, way to slowly. He had to meet this royal guard, that his father boasted about. Hisuke had never actually met this royal guard as he always hid himself in plain sight but something tells him that he'd recognise this royal guard the moment he saw him, it was just a feeling.

The carriage stopped after a further 5 minutes, in which hisuke proceeded to step out and he looked around, at a further glance he saw swift but decided to ignore it as he thought it was just a servant, but something told him otherwise.  So he chose the smart move and walked up to him with his usual royal elegance. "Who are you?" it was more of a demand to know then a question from Hisuke, but he needed to know just in case it was a threat. Swift almost looked at hisuke like he was crazy, "swift glaxum, your highness. I'm the royal guard." Almost immediately after saying that hisuke couldn't stop himself from laughing. "Y- y.... Oh this is to funny, your like what 18"
"Actually sir Im as old as this realm" swift stated like the fact should of been obvious. Hisuke look dumbstruck but accepted it. "Whatever just give me time to settle then we'll get on with the changing of royal power" to that swift nodded and seemed to walk into the castle like it was his home. "Surely he has a home right?"
