A heavy quiet descends upon the throne room as Captain Lorcan stands before the monarch and the princess. His armor is notched and stained, a map of a two-year war.

With a voice stripped of all warmth, he requests the formal dissolution of their engagement, the air between them thick with years of unspoken grief.
