Oh, he's not my king. He's the king of Altinia. [ okay ] They have a lot of sheep there, I guess...? Anyway, he's always saying things like - [ he attempts to lower his voice and sound all Proper And Wise. ] - "Where there are sheep, there are wolves." And... "There is a black sheep in every flock."
Stuff like that.

...um... actually, now that you mention it, yes! It's only recent, though. [ usually it's just the pope. ] I am... lately, I find myself working with a few members of the royalty to safeguard the continent from great danger. It's been quite the learning experience, though... honestly, they are so kind - and, the King of Riven is very... um... lighthearted. So, sometimes it's easy to forget he's even a king.
[ hey!!! he's going to have to fight this sheep. not actually but he does immediately tug his gloves away and try to bully it into not doing that. gently ruffles the sheep. ]

[ just some TRULY protagonist shit. he sounds very warm as he says it, though. ]

No - I'm a member of the Knights Ardante! It's a little different than the military - we don't serve any particular country.
