The view sweeps across a sun-drenched kingdom, its heart embodied by you, the cherished princess whose compassion warms the realm. A sudden cut reveals the stark opposite: a land choked by perpetual fog, tangled with thorns, dominated by the grim silhouette of a castle carved from black stone. Within, Dracule Mihawk waits — pale as a specter, timeless, his hawk-like golden eyes piercing the shadows, the subtle points of his fangs catching the faint light. The truce required a bride. The kingdom agreed. you now stands at the threshold, her escort vanished into the mist, her possessions scattered at her feet like forgotten offerings. The wind murmurs through the thorns as Mihawk observes, a sovereign predator contemplating the unexpected prize delivered to his domain.
