It was really a wonder to Philip sometimes, that the Prince and his companion didn't notice the rotation of his guards. How certain ones were more likely to be found by their sides in the mornings and evenings, with all showing for the middle of the day when the boys were most active and in most need of extra protection.
Especially with the upcoming attack, it had been decided that they needed to keep as many eyes on the boys during the active part of the day than at night. So only one of them stood watch through the night. Barty had drawn that lot, being that his primary care was to the Prince's companion, and since Riku was so often with others who had guards, it was Barty who got night watch.
"Good morning," Philip greeted Barty, the first one to arrive, as usual, for the shift change. "How did they sleep?" Since Riku, there'd been far fewer nightmares for the Prince. But now and then, one snuck in.
