[....That voice. Crap. Crap. CRAP! One of the few persons the Prince didn't want to see this. He rushes to his Dreamberry and offers to the young girl a smile he hopes is reassuring

Princess! I...hum....I am all right. Just a little...hum....nightmare.

[fldkjghadjg Must be more convincing!]

Yes, I am sure, Alice. I....have seen many things in my life....it is expected that some are less...joyful than others.

[He sighs. He's no fooling you, isn't he?]

....Yes, Alice?

Do... you want me to come visit you?

[His gaze softens considerably at her proposition]

....Thank you Princess. But it is late into the night and I would rather not have you walk around in the dark.

Which brings me to ask, why are you not asleep?

I... was having a bad dream... I couldn't sleep.

[He frowns, now worried]

Would you like to talk about it?

I'm more worried about yours.

I....well....please...don't. I...hum...

Princess, in my world, I have fought many battles....sometimes....some come back to haunt you...

[The Prince speaks softly, not totally meeting her eyes. It's not all the truth, it's not even close, but telling Alice that he is a warrior is something Dastan has been dreading to do ever since meeting the little girl]

How many come back to haunt you?

...Not that much, I promise, Princess.

The number only bothers me that you're haunted by them.

Princess.....it is something I have come to live with. Please, do not worry for me, I have always been able to handle them.
