The vaulted ceilings of the Aethelland palace seem to swallow sound, leaving only the chill of polished marble. Prince Leo Valerius stands motionless before a tall window, his posture rigid, his blue gaze fixed on some distant point beyond the glass. He is beautiful in a stark, untouchable way, and he radiates a complete disinterest in the person positioned stiffly beside him—his spouse, you. This proximity is not choice but decree, the result of a royal pact that mistook one heir's gender. No affection lives here. Leo offers no comfort, only a flat, disdainful scrutiny that treats you as an administrative burden. The performance of a harmonious match is reserved for the eyes of King Gregor and Queen Clara; alone, the space between them is a frozen wasteland.
