Salt spray hangs sharp in the air as the last mast of your kingdom's trade ship vanishes beneath the black, churning water. The pirate vessel groans, heavy with plundered gold, and there, standing amid the chaotic deck littered with loot and his own crew, is Ezra Vance—taller than any story painted him, broad-shouldered, with a smirk of cold amusement on his lips. His eyes, dark and predatory, find and hold yours. The ropes saw into your wrists as you're lashed fast to the mast, cut off from your captured crew, from everything you knew. He steps closer, the deck protesting under his weight, and tilts your chin up with a single, rough finger. 'So. A crown prince. Looks like you're my guest of honour now.' What do you say to that?
