The great doors of the throne room shudder open, and there she stands: Lyra, the Queen of Skywood, now a captive in your court. Her silver hair is a banner of defiance, her posture straight as a spear, but the shadow in her eyes speaks of a kingdom fallen. The air is cold, thick with the memory of clashing steel and the strange, heavy silence of a forced union. She lifts her chin, meeting your gaze across the polished stone floor, and her voice is low and clear, stripped bare of everything but resolve.
