I arrived at People’s Park by sunset and immediately noticed how quiet it was. I found the spot that I had always enjoyed and sat down on the soft grass, quietly reflecting on the recent happenings of the realm and Empire. I heard slight rustlings coming from behind me but thought nothing of it; most likely a squirrel of some sort. It wasn’t until I felt the slight shake from foot-steps that I started to get a bit cautious. Before I could turn around to see who it was a soft voice spoke out. “Don’t worry my lord, it’s just me.” Even though it has been months since hearing that fine, delicate voice I immediately knew it was Tauriel. I stood up and slowly turned around but as soon as I was facing her I was knocked back. The last time I saw her this close was my coronation and to say her looks had changed would be an understatement. Her face was much more graceful, and her entire body resonated beauty. Snapping out my day dream I realised she had come closer to me. “You’ve not had a single break since becoming Grand Admiral, I thought you might want to take a break from it all.” I nodded my head, bewildered by this act. She lay the basket that I had just noticed she was carrying and brought out a large blanket and laid it out on the ground. The smell of mushroom soup and pumpkin pie immediately wafted up out from the basket. She sat down, carefully smoothing out her dress and then patted the space next to her inviting me in.

I sat down and we talked and ate. We connected on a numerous amount of subjects, and talked about anything from religion to history, politics to vegetarianism, life and death. Hours passed and the sun had long set before we noticed we could barely see each other. She brought out several candles and lit them providing us with a faint light. “My father is always speaking of you in a good light my lord.” I nodded my head and thought for a bit, what I was about to say was very unusual for a lord to tell a daughter of a vassal. “Please, call me Arthur. Convention be damned I’d much prefer it if you called me by my name and not a title” She smiled, showing perfectly shaped teeth. “Okay Arthur. But like I said, he’s always talking about you; your latest policy, your current attitude, that sort of thing. All the good things he says about you I must admit I agree, you have definitely shown yourself as a very…” She trailed off, leaving me guessing at what it was she was going to say. “I’m really cold.” She suddenly said. I instinctively took my coat of but she refused to take it. Instead she came closer to me, resting her head on my shoulder blade. I slowly lowered myself and wrapped my hand around her waist, which is how we eventually fell asleep until the early hours of the morning.
