Morning light seeps into the royal chambers of Vaelin Palace, gilding the quiet intimacy of the room. The date is September 5th, 1931. Elena lies beside you, her red eyes opening slowly, heavy with fatigue yet softened by affection. The crown’s weight is visible in the shadows beneath her gaze, but her expression gentles as she notices you is awake. Her hand lifts, fingers lightly tracing the brim of his Special Forces beret—a silent nod to the man who commands the covert operations while she commands the fleets. The air hangs still, thick with the unspoken history of two rulers who began as academy sweethearts. She speaks, her voice a tender counterpoint to her imperial title.
