*A few months before*
"Ahahhah, Master is such suitor, that you always have wedding proposals. " Jakar was laughing loud mocking his Master. "Just pick one and get over with it."
"Shut up. I hate this. I don't need a wife." Ashur was angry , he couldn't understand why Mr. Theodor kept pestering to get married, having a wife was not part of his plans.
Jakar could only laugh at Ashur's misery.
"There's so much I need to do, I can waste time on such things."
" Ashur..." Gideon, Ashur councillor was standing by the door. "We shouldn't raise any suspicions, to the King, you are already at marriage age, we don't want the King to be controlling your affairs. "
" I don't care what that man, thinks, I will kill him one day." Ashur was bursting with anger even more. He had his hand on is dark black hair, pacing back and forth, he was a handsome man, that could make any woman fall head over hills.
" Well Ashur my brother the king already says that you remind him of someone, he may catch up some day to whom you remind him of."
Ashur sighted sitting down, with his head on his hands. "It's not like he is coming to this frozen place anyway."
"Ashur, any lady would be very pleased to marry you."
"Exactly, ahahahha you caused such of rokus last time we went to the capital. Ahahaha. "
Ashur was annoyed, and Jakar's laugh was even more annoying to hear.
"Maybe you can look around here in town, you can marry one of the girls here." Jakar said with his feat up in the desk, without a care in the world.
" The king wants you to marry one of these ladies." Said Gideon, putting down a list a on the table with name of the ladies and their family names.
Ashur didn't even look at it, turning his head, shoved the list down the table. "That old fart just wants to keep me busy, with random quests and campaigns. Now with this marriage idea."
" if you sign the marriage contract with any of these ladies, the King will not suspect of you, any further. "
Both Ashur and Jakar were silent, how is the King aware of anything suspicious.
*Knock knock*
The door opens, Mr. Theodor enters the room his face was pale, his hands were trembling.
" Young master, the king sent a message..." Mr. Theodor swollowed dry. "... He has chosen your bride."
"What? " Ashur stood up quickly banging his hand against the table. " How dare he... "
"This is good ... If you marry the one that he chose there's nothing from what he can have suspicions."
" what if she is a spy, what if she is working for him and a devoted servant." Ashur became even more angrier. " that old fart..."
"Young master unfortunately is not everything, the King request for you to take part in a Campaign to kill the dragon, that is at the northern caverns. "
Everyone face was dark, since they knew how dangerous that campaign was.
Ashur Browgett, 23 years old, since little he fought Monsters, conquered a place for him and his town in the society. Everyone knew the frozen Land, was the domain from the House of Browgett. He was know as strong and a Brave warrior, people used to say he had the bravery of a King.
Which made the king very angry.
The king would order Ashur in dangerous quest, and campaigns to prove that bravery would either turn out to be fake or kill him. Neither until the Moment had happened.
This quest requested/ordered by the King was one of those. It was very dangerous one, noone dare to face the dragon, everyone knew how dangerous it could be.
" who is the Lady that I should be marrying, which House does she belongs to?" Jakar looked at Ashur in surprised. After a bit bursted out laughing.
"The king has done it, has convinced our young Master to get married. Ahahah."
"Is a small House, young Masters, House of Camden. They are from the middle south. "
"Hmm likely trying to gain favour and status by aiding the King. " said Jakar unimpressed.
" From the south, she will not be able to handle the cold from the frozen Lands." Gideon was with Message form the King in the hand reading for himself.
"I will sign the contract and marry whoever she is, I will find out if she is a spy or not as soon as I am back from the campaign. If she is a spy I will deliver her head to the King himself and kill him. " Ashur took the marriage contract from Gideon hand and signed putting a seal on it.
" Here Theodor, you can sent it. Tell the king's menssager that we will also go in this campaign..."
"Jakar gather the warriors we will leave soon." Ashur said commanding, and firm.
