Three sets of eyes stared at Sir Gunnar as he stood at the head of the meeting table with his arms crossed over his chest. In front of him were the apprentices he trusted the most out of the entire knighthood, but he felt that he couldn't go on without giving them even further warning and a chance to ruminate over their past actions. They weren't inherently bad teenagers, but they were untrained in the eyes of the Royal Family.
He sighed, knowing he would be coming down harshly and perhaps a bit unfairly.
"I need the three of you to be on your best behavior," Sir Gunnar began. I understand the urge to joke in uncomfortable situations, but please refrain from doing so in front of Her Highness. Not only is the King overprotective of the Princess but the Crown Prince is known to be his ears and eyes on these sorts of trips. His Highness is not known for his kindness or discretion and is as protective of Her Highness as much as the King if not a bit more."
