"I know that.." the guard said once his comrade was out of earshot.  "I am here simply to let you know that she is fine as is your son and the prince, I cannot say for how long but the people are stirring.  It will not be long until they rise and when they do I will be looking toward another gate than the one they are storming if you catch my drift."  He smiled a little, "I will make sure that the people learn she is here and what the king plans, until then save your strength."
