Davin has his teeth sunk into the apple when he hears someone shouting, and he jumps and whirls around, pulling the fruit from his mouth and talking around the bite. "Sorry! I'll pay ya! I was jus' really hungry. An' also, I can't really pay ya, but - wait. Did ya say ya need help?"
He swallows the bite and takes another one, because hey, he can eat and walk at the same time, and approaches the tower. There's someone hanging out of a window way up high, but they're silhouetted against the bright sun so he can't really make out their face. It's a man, though. That was definitely a manly voice and that's a very manly shape.
"Are ya stuck up there?" Davin yells, clutching his beloved apple in one hand and reaching up to shield his eyes from the sun with the other. "Did someone stick ya up there? Let me see if I can find a door down here, aye? Sit tight."
Davin takes another bite of apple and walks around the base of the tower, but the whole thing is covered with smooth stones and there isn't anything like a doorway. Well, that just doesn't make any sense. He frowns and calls on his magic, telling any metal to reveal itself. He's hoping for a lock, or a handle, but Davin hears a noise and runs around the other side of the tower to see rock falling away from a big, rumbling iron door. It's locked, but Davin just forces it open with his magic and lets out a triumphant yell when the door swings open. "Okay! I'm comin' up! Totally gonna rescue ya!"
Davin makes his way up the stone spiral staircase with only a little worry of what he'll find at the top. The man seemed genuinely distressed and this is a lot of work just to lure someone in for some trickery, but Davin has seen how terrible people can be. He has his magic on his side, and he can protect himself if he needs. Hopefully, he'll just help someone in need and be on his way.
He comes to another large iron door and grins. This is almost too easy. Davin coaxes the lock open with a nudge of magic and then pushes the door open. "Here I am, your knight in shinin' - whoa."
Once upon a time, Davin borrowed (without permission) some nicer clothes from Coop and snuck into a party at Thornton palace. They didn't like magic, see, and Davin just wanted to know why. There, he'd met a handsome man and had a brief conversation with him, followed by a polite and lovely dance, and then Davin found out that the man was actually a prince. He'd left the party after that, both out of embarrassment and fear of being caught, but he'd never really stopped hoping that one day he would see that prince again.
And now, here he is. Davin stares for a bit and then remembers himself, giving the prince a quick bow. "Your highness."
