Will saluted with his fist to his chest, the royal salute towards the guards to the dungeon as he entered through the courtyard entrance. "How can I help you today, young lord?" The guard to the left of the entrance asked after dropping his salute.
"I was hoping to see how the prisoners are fairing today." Will smiled as he made his way down the stairwell.
"I could send you a guide through the corridors." The guard offered. He remembered seeing the prince with Maya a few months back, the young man had no idea how to traverse even the guest quarter. He smiled at the thought of a child not knowing his own home.
"I'm sure I can find my way." Will said with a grin. "They're in the Bloomstar corridor, right?" He arched an eyebrow and lit a crimson and gold flame in his upturned palm to light the way.
"Yeah." The guard said in confusion. 'The young lord must have studied the layout since I last saw him.' He thought as he saw the prince descend.
