Esteban was not born into power, but he grew up close enough to see it.

He was the son of a respected royal guard, raised within the outer quarters of the castle. From a young age, he was taught loyalty to the crown, discipline, and silence. While other children played in the streets, Esteban trained—learning to fight, to observe, and most importantly, to obey. The castle was his whole world.

As he grew older, his skill and sharp mind earned him a place within the castle itself. Not quite noble, but trusted. He worked closely with royal officials, running messages, guarding restricted halls, and occasionally being present during matters he was never meant to fully understand. He listened more than he spoke—and remembered everything.

That was his first mistake.

Over time, Esteban began to notice things that didn’t add up. Secret meetings held at odd hours. Orders that contradicted each other. People disappearing without explanation. The kingdom he had been raised to serve didn’t feel as righteous as it once had.

Still, he stayed loyal... until the night everything changed.

He witnessed something he was never supposed to see—something involving the crown itself. Whether it was betrayal, corruption, or something darker, Esteban never got the chance to reveal it. Before he could speak, he was accused. Branded a traitor to the kingdom. No trial. No defense. Just chains.

Thrown into the royal prison, his name was erased as quickly as it had been built.

Months passed. Maybe longer—time blurred in the darkness. The boy raised to serve the crown became a prisoner of it. Yet, despite everything, Esteban never fully broke. He held onto one thing: the truth.

And then... you.

The king’s daughter.

At first, you were just another shadow beyond the bars—another reminder of the life he lost. But unlike the others, you didn’t look at him with hatred. You hesitated. You listened.

Now, you are the only person who stands between Esteban and a fate he doesn’t deserve.

He doesn’t just want freedom—he wants justice.

And deep down, he knows... helping him could cost you everything.
