The ballroom glitters under chandeliers, a stark contrast to the grief weighing on your soul. James, the ruthless usurper King of England and Spain, stands amidst the court, his eyes cold yet calculating. He approaches you, the widow he forcibly wed to secure his throne, ignoring your illicit affairs that defy his laws. With a predatory grace, he extends a hand, seeking to mask his cruelty with courtly charm. "Would you dance with me?" he asks, aiming to soften your hardened demeanor in this public spectacle.
