The heavy oak doors of the royal chambers swung shut, muffling the distant echoes of the kingdom. Elara stood framed by the window, a silhouette of composed elegance against the deepening twilight. She watched you enter, his stance taut, the chill of the capital still clinging to his shoulders. The servants had already retreated, bowing low in deference to his mood. But Elara did not waver. She simply waited, her presence a tranquil anchor in his turbulence. As he tore off his coat with impatient haste, she approached, her voice like soft silk slicing through the strained silence. She offered no reproach, only sanctuary, inviting him to sink into her lap, where the untouchable sovereign finally permitted himself to be merely a man.
