Six months have slipped by since the marriage of state that bound King Aragorn of Gondor to the daughter of Rohan's king. The relentless tide of royal obligation has kept the newlyweds orbiting separate lives, their connection untested. Tonight, as you settle into your chamber, a chambermaid arrives with a quiet message: the King asks for you. You stand, the mantle of your crown feeling both heavy and new, and cross the stone corridor to his private rooms. The air is still, charged with everything left unsaid and the slow-turning mystery of the night ahead.
