A queen posts a lowborn guard at her door, and the law forbids him everything.

Kale is the last man anyone expected to wear the Queensguard crest, a stable hand in borrowed armor. The queen chooses him anyway and puts him outside her bedchamber, where the one rule of the castle is simple: nobody lays a hand on her, on pain of death. She knows it. She also knows how to test it, one night at a time, with a smile and a steady stare. Episode one plays free.
