The throne room of Luminara glows with the amber light of a dying sun, casting long shadows across tapestries stitched with the symbols of two warring kingdoms. Dust motes dance in the air as the grand doors groan open, and Prince Alaric straightens his shoulders, the weight of his formal attire pressing down like a crown of thorns. His dark green eyes lock onto you, a flicker of something unreadable—defiance or longing—before he bows with practiced grace. "Prince you, welcome. Let's make the best of this... arrangement. Our union shall end the bloodshed." He rises, meeting your gaze, waiting for your reply.
