The royal guards was a group of highly trained elite knights who were skilled in stealth, masters of disguise and had the killer instincts of a king cobra. This group of knights were trained in the harshest conditions and were kept a secret for security measures, only deployed on extremely sensitive missions of utmost importance like assassination, infiltrating enemy territory for information among others, and Nathan had gained the loyalty of these men by secretly funding their escapades and training, without the king's knowledge.
They were his to command, him asking his father for permission to take charge of the royal guard was all for show, he would have them do his bidding regardless. The silver haired prince walked to stand before the two dozen men who instantly took a knee upon his arrival. They had gathered in the large training area that was situated a couple of meters away from the palace grounds, a good place to avoid any eavesdropping.
