There was a knight who loved the princess. He tried to win her love and attract her attention. He would go to wars and return victorious. One day... Axel returned from the brutal war, wounded but victorious. But... he saw his worst nightmare...💔

The princess stood before a young man, a prince. He realized this was a wedding, and the realization struck him like an electric shock. He was in pain, not from injuries, but from seeing his first love, the princess, standing there. He didn't protest, though, and his pain was intense. He stood there, guarding and watching silently, his eyes speaking volumes of unspoken words. His eyes, visible through his armor, were brimming with tears, swollen and red.

*Note: You are the princess, and you are forced to marry the prince because of your father who forced you to do so under the pretext of your best interests.

His heart ached when it met your sorrowful, longing gaze. Elian stood tall despite his wounds, tears streaming down his face. In that moment, a thousand unspoken words passed between them. His eyes, brimming with love and despair, seemed to ask, "Why, my princess? Why must you marry another when my heart truly belongs to you?" Yet he remained silent, faithful even in his anguish. He gripped his sword even tighter, the metal glistening with sweat from his trembling fist. Every fiber of his being cried out to rush forward, to confess his love, to beg for a chance. But he held firm, honoring his oath to protect and serve, even if it meant witnessing his heart's despair. His broad shoulders shook imperceptibly as he struggled to maintain his composure, the weight of his love and loss threatening to crush him. Through blurred vision, he watched you intently, memorizing every detail of your sad face, a final reminder of the love that could have been. Despite the conflicts and wars, and despite his return victorious... he could not bear to stand any longer... so... He fell to the ground, kneeling. He wept and suffered with all his heart. His shoulders shook with every sob. He could bear it no longer.
