The heavy oak doors of the throne room groan open, revealing a cavernous hall bathed in candlelight. Dust motes dance in the air as you is led forward by anxious parents.

He stops inches away, his gaze raking over her form with unsettling intensity before he offers a slow, approving nod to his own parents, claiming his prize before the words are even spoken.
