Third person POV:

George was sitting in the forest outside the castle walls daydreaming about the day it will change. He sighs to himself hearing the crickets sing a calming melody while he makes a move to get up. George looks around once more to the forest that stretches for who knows how long. He looks over to a small stream which was glistening in the sunlight. But he wasn't expecting the one thing he saw. 

He saw some bandits by the stream looking straight at him with a weird look in their eyes. George recognized that look as he had seen it once before. 

George, who was starting to fear for his life ran. He ran as fast as he could towards the gates that led into the city. But unfortunately, the bandits were quicker as he felt them quickly catch up to him grabbing George's arm and pulling him to the ground. As George tries to yell for help he was instantly gagged and ropes immobilizing him. Next thing he knew he was being picked up by the waist and thrown over one of the bandit's shoulder. I was so close, yet so far. If only I was faster, if only I wasn't weak, if only.... He felt tears come to his eyes, he squeezed them shut trying to block the salty droplets from falling.

When he woke up his feet were on the ground again. He opened his eyes to find that there was a dark colored fabric tied around his eyes to prevent him from seeing his captors. George winced as his ears rang with the deep cackling of the drunk bandits. He had been hit in the head by something when he had fallen, trying to escape. He winces again when he felt something warm run into his blindfold. He was definitely bleeding. The cackling suddenly dies down as he heard multiple sets of feet approaching.

One of the bandits grab Georges chin and lifts it so the bandit had a good view. George flinched at the sudden touch. Only to get thrown down. "We should just leave him here," one of the bandits say. "I think we should at least try to get a ransom out of him," says another. "We should leave him no one would want him anyways," says the third bandit agreeing with the first. "At least let me have fun with him boss!" says a different bandit "You can have him," says the leader. His tone was different, like he was disgusted. Once George realized what was going on he started to struggle. "Look at him go! Now that he knows what you're doing to him he struggles as much as he can!" They all start to cackle at their success.

George felt the tears coming again and bit his tongue to try to not show any weakness, but it failed and his blindfold started to get wet. The bandits start to laugh even harder. George tries to tune them out as best as he can to save himself from having a panic attack. But his breathing starts to speed up. He felt the bandits walk away having to much to drink and forgetting about George in the process. George starts to calm himself down since this had happened before. "1...2...3...4...." This immediately started to calm him down. But he realized the voice wasn't his own. It was calm and soothing. George started to somehow fall back into a deep slumber disregarding the situation he was currently in.

George suddenly woke up to arguing between the bandits. "Why's all the loot gone!?" yelled the boss. He looks over the rest of the bandits while they try to argue back but fail because of the shouting from a different spot in the forest. They too seem to be yelling over something. George starts to try and sit up but his head starts to throb from the blood loss because of the day before. George's body starts to tense up when he hears blood curdling screams from a nearby camp. Which he is guessing is part of the same group. The bandits immediately quiet down, even the leader is quite shocked. The bandits turn to look over at George who is very tense. The leader of the bandits walks over to George and kneels down. He takes something out of his pocket and puts it under Georges' nose. It took a minute but when the time was almost out George's body suddenly relaxes when passing out from the drug.

Whelp, that was an unexpected twist. I didn't really have anything to go by on this. I don't really want to have George be color blind in this AU but I'll decide next chapter so sorry if you got a little confused.
