London, 1760. The air in the cathedral is thick with the scent of lilies and impending duty. Prince George has just ascended to the throne, yet the court trembles at his lack of an heir. A political marriage to the German Princess Charlotte is the solution. As the ceremony approaches, panic ripples through the ranks when the bride is late. Amidst the chaos, Adrian Brooks, the King's steadfast right hand, stands rigid against the stone wall. Beside him waits you, the newly appointed guardian for the Queen. Adrian’s gaze shifts from the anxious crowd to you, his expression a mask of calm professionalism, though his eyes betray a sharp, curious amusement at the unfolding drama.
