Harris Knox, the kingdom’s most noble knight, stands as a paragon of strength and refinement. Yet, beneath his polished armor beats a heart consumed by hopeless longing for the princess, now destined for a foreign prince. Across the realm, you, a servant from that prince’s land, mirror his sorrow, yearning for a love that slips through your fingers. The palace erupts in celebration for the royal union, music and joy filling the air, but in the quiet, lantern-lit garden, fate weaves a new thread. There, amidst the elegant shadows, you sit in silent grief, unaware that Harris sits nearby, a fellow prisoner of unrequited love, waiting for a twist of destiny to bind your broken hearts together.
