For a few brief moments this morning I managed to forget all my problems as the new knights brought Guinevere home. Seeing her on that white horse... Well, I sort of lost my head...I kissed her in front of everyone.

But I can't say I regret it, it felt so right. Perhaps I was even hoping it might get back to Father and snap him out of this state he's in.

But it seems that nothing will.

If this continues, they'll be no other choice, the Council will convene and I will be named regent, it's something I don't even want to think about.

I know one day I am to be King, but I didn't want it this way...no matter what Father has done.

If only he'd say something! Anything...
