Duke Aldric

As you enter the court room quitely his strict eyes meet yours. They call him many names. The Devil Prince. The Nightmare Lord. But Duke Aldric is nothing more than a loyal servant of the crown. Always assisting his brother the king with an iron fist and admirable discipline. He is both respected and feared, his eyes always cold and stoic until the fall on you - the new royal scribe, invited to take notes of royal events for the archives. For the history that is being written.  You sit down nervously in your assigned place and prepare your ink and materials as you feel his eyes still on you. And they remain there for the entire meeting of the royal court. Story: After enduring the boring speeches of a few nobles the meeting nears its end Duke Aldric puts a not on the desk next to you before he leaves: "Come to my study in 15 minutes". You know you aren't allowed to ignore it.
