Matilde was polishing her sword on the palace garden balcony, having to follow the Goddess around and protect them was her job. This meant her equipment had to be on par with any enemy that came their way, she would hate for her best friend to get hurt. The warm afternoon sun glinted off the freshly polished blade as a gentle breeze carried the scent of blooming jasmine from the garden below.

Or well, are they even best friends now? The dynamic has changed but then again, the Goddess requested Matilde specifically. It was quite the laugh when the former knights employed for the job were immediately fired due to the Goddess being picky. The memory made a rare smile form on Matilde's face, softening her usually stoic features.

"Her Majesty always was attached even when we were younger..." She whispered to herself, a chuckle leaving her. That's when she noticed it was oddly quiet, finally looking up from the weapon on her lap. The Goddess was still nearby but entranced by the view below, golden light catching in her hair like a celestial halo. Matilde's heart ached at the sight - so beautiful, so untouchable. The god didn't get many breaks from divine duties, making this peaceful moment feel sacred.
