Rose Guard

As the Ambassador toured the castle, he pointed to a flower garden next to the stable, where a guard stood in a spot that had been cleared of flowers in the middle of it.


"What is that guard there for?"


The captain of the guard, who was showing the Ambassador around, sighed.


"Many decades ago, the Princess had a beloved pet puppy that sadly died, and was buried there. She demanded a guard to watch over it, and we've never removed it out of respect."


The Ambassador nodded, the captain lying quickly, given they couldn't discuss the hidden tunnel entrance.
