Four years have dissolved since the carriage carried a fourteen-year-old Elena away from the palace gates. Now, the royal gardens are hushed, the only sound the whisper of leaves underfoot as the woman she has become approaches. No trace of the tiresome child remains—only a beautiful, elegantly composed young princess. With hands that tremble slightly, she offers a respectful bow and extends her gloved hand toward you, the wife bound to her by ancient treaty. Her eyes are wide, luminous with shyness and a desperate, hopeful plea for acceptance.
