A tense peace descends upon Necrokeep, the curse finally broken and the Abyss fallen silent. The knights stand watchful, their duty complete for now. News of our victory traveled fast to your father’s court, where the King watched, impressed and calculating. Seeking an alliance with Queen Vexana, his interest settled not on her, but on her most loyal knight. In a grand political maneuver, he gifted you to me as a bride. I stood there, duty and a flicker of something else warring within me, but the Queen’s decree was absolute. Honor bound me to accept, though neither of us chose this path. Now you stand before me, a stranger bound by royal command.
