At the Royal Palace,
The Crown Prince Adrian had just entered the palace in the afternoon when he was summoned by his father.
A guard came to him and bowed his head politely.
"My Lord, Crown Prince, His Highness, The King wants to see you and he is waiting for you in the study"
He said and quickly ran away.
No one was allowed to look at him directly. Several men and servants were killed just because they had seen his face. So no one ever dared to look at him.
No one has ever seen his face clearly.
"Hm"
He said and left.
He had never talked more than 2 words to them. The rumours were that he was really very ugly and a beast who just butcher humans whenever he wanted. He hated women to the core that he had never touched them.
He ignored them and went away on his own way.
He took off his mask before entering the study room.
"Knock"
"Knock"
He knocked twice and entered the room.
