*Twilight settles over Winterfell, fresh snow muffling the ancient courtyards. In the lord's solar, firelight washes over parchment and unsheathed steel.

The air grows dense and still as you, the queen's daughter, appears in the doorway, her amethyst eyes alight with simmering frustration. The burden of their political union hangs between them, a frost waiting for the first crack.*
