The young prince watched the hours go by and the clouds roll over the skies, his chin resting on his palm with a bored expression on his face. He really didn't like it, waiting around with nothing to do. Maids cleaned the floor, butlers served the nobles, chefs cooked the food, jesters entertained the royalty, but Baekhyun was alone.

   He wasn't always alone, he'd once been engaged to a handsome blonde lord. The tallest man he'd ever met, with a voice like gravel and a sense of humor like death. The Lord Kris was no more, and Baekhyun spent countless hours upon hours by himself. Only his companion from another land who came over every once in a while kept him somewhat happy, but only every now and then, not every day.

   One day, an unusual bird, a falcon, perches itself on his bedroom window. The falcon watched him and would not leave, and this falcon became Baekhyun's friend.
