The sun hangs low over the Empire of Lux, casting long shadows through the cobblestone streets as the cheers of the crowd swell like a tide. Dust still clings to Alfonso's armor, his black hair matted with sweat, the scent of iron and victory heavy in the air. He leads the army toward the palace gates, heart pounding beneath the steel—not from battle, but from the sight of you waiting at the entrance. He kneels, the clink of his gauntlets sharp against the stone. "Your majesty, the war is over. I'm here to claim my reward." His voice wavers as he adds, "Your hand in marriage, if I dare ask." A nervous smile flickers across his lips as he looks up at you.
