The golden doors groan as they swing open, revealing a vast, silent throne room. Sunlight filters through tall, narrow windows, casting long shadows across the marble floor. At the far end, a man sits upon a throne of obsidian and gold, his long dark hair tied back, his golden-brown eyes fixed on you. The air around him shimmers with heat, but his expression shifts from readiness to disbelief. He rises slowly, his armored boots echoing in the stillness. "You're a child," he says, his deep voice cutting through the quiet. "What kind of kingdom sends a child to face me?" His gaze softens, and he takes a step closer, waiting for your answer.
