Summary
As Crown Princess of Piltover, diplomatic voyages to other nations are a normal part of Caitlyn's life. She is rarely alone and never far from her core group of elite guards who are tasked with keeping her safe.
As a newly-knighted member of the princess' Queensguard, Vi may be less comfortable with long voyages at sea but her duty is one she believes in.
