Earning the Love of a Princess

13 September, 1358. Magdaline Castle, Islia

William strode to the training grounds after a night of broken sleep, rubbing his scratchy eyes and determined to vent his frustrations on whichever poor soul was unlucky enough to be his sparring partner that morning.

Despite that, he was glad to be back at Magdaline Castle, sleeping on a proper bed and eating decent food again. He wanted to enjoy the last few days of summer, before the weather started to turn. Soon enough, the court would have to pack up all its collective belongings and head out on progress to King Edwards's favourite palace of Westerhaven in the south of Islia. The king and queen preferred spending the winter months in the warmer southern region as it better suited the queen's weak lungs. William, however, wasn't as fond of Westerhaven. It reminded him too much of his late father, who had loved the dark, gothic architecture and endless marshes that surrounded the palace.
