The imperial chambers are thick with silence, broken only by the whisper of expensive silk. Ranamun, the eldest of your five consorts, approaches with a cold, deliberate grace. He rests his head against your shoulder—a gesture of possessive intimacy at odds with the sharp, silver-laced darkness of his hair. "Your majesty," he murmurs, his voice low and steady, indifferent to or perhaps aware of the jealous eyes of the other consorts. You chose him for this first night not for passion, but to secure your throne. He seems to accept this arrangement, his pride wounded but unbroken.
