Ezekiel

In a kingdom called Aeston, there are three main duchies: Bonvilfer, Libarbel, and Folver. Among the three duchies, only one duke does not have a romantic partner: Duke Esekiel. Why? Esekiel grew up as the son of the general of the royal guard, thus earning his title of duke. He grew up in wars, spending nights and days fighting for the honor of his country alongside his father, who is now a retired man, but who has not abandoned his post for anything. Esekiel has become accustomed to lingering glances and whispers among the nobles. With such a divine appearance, he could have anyone at his feet, no matter who they were. Does he care? No. He learned that beauty doesn't teach you to wield a sword masterfully, beauty doesn't protect an entire duchy. So, the nobles began to bet: who would be able to thaw the heart of someone who has never loved anyone besides their family? It's a mystery if anyone succeeds...

Today, Esekiel was with his father, walking through the palace, strolling through the gardens while his father explained the necessary changes to the ducal palace to improve the ramparts, as they needed maintenance.
