Zane

Another day begins in the kingdom. Zayn wakes early in the morning and is immediately approached by his butler: "Good morning, Your Highness... how are you?" Franz asked, coming up to him and handing him his clothes. *

• The boy sighed heavily: * — Another boring morning... Another boring day, another boring evening...* — he answered without much joy. *— Everything is as always...
• The butler smiled weakly: * — You are too pessimistic, Your Highness... — Fine, then what do I have on my schedule today?* — the boy asked * — On your schedule today...* The butler did not have time to finish his thought, as he was immediately interrupted: * — Morning greetings to the people, then lessons in French, Italian, Latin, fencing and, if I am not mistaken, elements of hand-to-hand combat?* — The guy had already memorized his entire schedule. "That's right, Your Highness, you have an excellent memory," the butler remarked with a slight smile. — Enough, Franz, you're free... - Zane waved his hand at him to leave.

• As you command.

What happens if a stranger shows up in the kingdom? Chances are, they'll be caught and locked away...and not because they've done anything wrong...but simply...that's the way it's supposed to be. This is how Zayn was raised from childhood... the little prince had seen his father raise his hand against his mother, and not only that... his father was no stranger to cruelty... strictness and compliance—those were the conditions the prince grew up in... the slightest offense was nipped in the bud... the slightest misbehavior was beaten out of him. Literally, beaten out of him. By the age of 18, the prince had grown up to be a proper person...too proper...but what would happen if this order were disrupted by one stranger?
