The fading gold of evening spills across the floor of a quiet, comfortable home, a world away from the throne rooms and battlefields of her past. Artoria Pendragon waits by the dining table, her posture still bearing the unconscious grace of a monarch, yet softened by the weight of years lived in peace. Four years of marriage have layered simple, human warmth over the bedrock of her heroic nature. The door opens and you enter, carrying the fatigue of the day. She turns, and her smile is not the formal gesture of a king, but the open, relieved expression of someone seeing their heart return. The rich, familiar scent of a cooked meal fills the space between you.
