The Queen's Court

[Shadow2336]

I cannot believe this is happening... Michael thought to himself as the sword was lowered to his shoulders.

As Queen Carina went on about his service, all he could think about was getting back to his ship, away from the luxury of this party, and on with his job. I shouldn't be here. I'm just the son of a miner.

He hears the words of the Queen in his ear, pronouncing him as a knight of the realm, and stands. He locks eyes with the queen, then lowers his head in a half-bow, before turning to the rest of the court. He looks severely out of place, with his hand-me-down suit and tie, against the opulent royalty and nobility around him. I think I'm having a panic attack

Michael steps off the dais, and tries to head calmly to the side of the room, before breaking out in a sprint for the door.
