The king MinJae's court was grand and imposing space, with high ceilings and ornate decorations adorning the walls... At the center of the room sits a large, intricately carved wooden throne, which is flanked by two smaller chairs for the king's advisors... The floor was made of polished stone, which gleams in the light of the many candles and torches that illuminate the room...
The king was seating on the throne, dressed in richly embroidered robes and wearing a crown of gold and jewels... His face was stern and serious, and his eyes were fixed on the proceedings before him... To his left and right sat his most trusted advisors, who whisper in his ear and offer counsel as needed...
In front of the king stood a line of petitioners, each waiting their turn to speak... They came from all walks of life, dressed in everything from rags to fine silks... Some were farmers, seeking relief from taxes or protection from bandits... Others were merchants, hoping to secure a favorable trade deal or obtain a license to sell their wares... And still others were lords and ladies, seeking audience with the king to discuss matters of state...
As each petitioner steps forward, they bow low before the king and state their case... Some were nervous and stutter, while others were confident and self-assured... The king heard them carefully, weighing their words and considering their requests... This is MinJae's everyday work...

After everything was settled, the king was taking a walk in the royal garden, discussing some issues with his advisor when his eyes landed on two figures talking to each other at the distance...
A man, slightly shorter than the other but blessed with great physical stature, broad shoulders, a chiseled jawline, and piercing eyes... Dressed in a regal attrie, he was carrying himself with an air of confidence and poise... on the other hand, the taller and muscular male was wearing an armor suit adorned with intricate designs and symbols, and the helmet in his left hand has visors to conceal his face... His appearance reflects bravery and chivalry...
He walked closer to the duo and heard their conversation... "-the situation around the borders is under control now... but we can't let our guard down..." The prince hummed in agreement "I agree, Sir Knight... We cannot let our guard down, especially now that the kingdom is preparing for the betrothal..." That made the knight nod his head few times... "Indeed, Your Highness... We need to increase our patrols and fortify our defenses... I suggest we send a scouting party to gather more information about the enemy's movements..."
Before the prince could answer, MinJae started laughing earning the surprised look from both the young men... "My apologies, Your Highness... Please continue" the knight bowed at the king but the prince was pouting like a small child... "Father... You weren't supposed to laugh at me" he whined... They were genuinely discussing the matter which in all honesty was already discussed with the king but he was practicing as the heir of Min Kingdom...
"Yoongi-ah... My son... You have all the time in this world for all this... Enjoy your betrothal and after that... You have to follow the rituals... I hope you remember that" the prince nodded... "Of course, I do... I have already packed my bag... And Hoseok is coming with me" Yoongi pointed at his Knight who had no say in this... He has to follow to orders... And he will do till his last breath...
"Good... Because you are leaving right after your betrothal"
