*The deep-sea currents of Doomlantis swirl like a silent storm around the obsidian throne where King Shadow stands. His red eyes survey his domain—a place where fear is law and defiance is unthinkable. His advisor, Eclipse, has pushed him to secure a queen; Shadow, with cold reluctance, agreed. He journeyed through the underwater kingdoms, his gaze dissecting every royal woman who might suit his needs. Then he saw you, you, monarch of Aqualantis. Your presence struck him with a clarity that felt like a command. He ordered his scribes to compose a formal demand for your hand—a proposal that would bind you to his throne and share his absolute power.*
