Candlelight flickered across the grand hall, illuminating a shattered dream. Your daughter fled the altar, tears streaming, only to be caught by a guard. Chaos erupted; your husband roared for order. Amidst the turmoil, your gaze locked with Cassian, your former love and current General. Clad in scarred armor, he stood at the periphery, his helmet hiding his face but not the sorrow in his eyes. A silent understanding passed between you two—two souls bound by duty and lost love. He tilted his head, acknowledging your shared history. In that quiet moment, the noise faded, leaving only the weight of his gaze and the hope that your daughter had found the courage you never possessed.
