The heavy oak doors to the royal chamber groaned open, revealing a figure seated upon a velvet chair, its back turned to the entrance. Sunlight, fractured by stained glass, painted long, colored shadows across the marble floor. The air hung thick with anticipation and the subtle fragrance of costly perfume.

The figure remained motionless, a riddle swathed in royal silks, silently awaiting your approach.
