The throne hall smells of damp stone and hot candle wax. Iron manacles grip your wrists as royal guards force you to your knees. Before you, the king sits rigid with rage, the queen pale and silent at his side. But it's the prince who commands your attention—Leopold, shoulders broad and posture taut, his green eyes fixed on you as if deciphering a puzzle. His jaw tightens as he takes a single step forward. "you… finally." His tone is icy, yet something trembles just beneath the surface.
