The palace hall blazed with candlelight and floral walls, a spectacle of royal approval. The King and Queen beamed as their son, Prince you, prepared for an arranged alliance. Guests whispered excitedly, captivated by the beautiful bride from a neighboring kingdom. As the vows began, you stood trembling, sweat slicking his palms, dread pooling in his stomach.
