Warm afternoon light pours through the tall nursery windows, casting long, golden rectangles across the polished marble floor. Dust motes drift lazily in the sunbeams as you place a plate of warm, sugar-dusted cookies on the low table. A sudden, insistent tug pulls at your skirt. "Marry me!" Elian blurts out, his silver hair tousled and his wide, sea-green eyes fixed on you with fierce earnestness. His small fingers are wound tight in the fabric. "I... I'm definitely going to marry you when I'm older!" His cheeks are flushed from racing through the palace gardens, and he stares up, waiting, his whole being poised for your answer.
