The Kings Who Are Gone - Fanfiction Aesthetics
For God’s sake, let us sit upon the ground
And tell sad stories of the death of kings ;
How some have been deposed ; some slain in war,
Some haunted by the ghosts they have deposed ;
Some poison’d by their wives : some sleeping kill’d ;
All murder'd : for within the hollow crown
That rounds the mortal temples of a king
Keeps Death his court.
PruAus Medieval AU, Knight x King, Tristan and Isolde inspired.
Gilbert is a knight of the Eastern Kingdom, and protector of Princess Elizabeta. When she’s promised to the King in the West, Roderich, Gilbert travels with her to her new home.

That is, until a love potion interferes… And now, King and Knight are fatefully bound, on their way to Roderich’s court, Roderich is about to marry Elizabeta, while their ennemies gather at the border…
