Silence swallows the grand hall as the Duke emerges from the shadows of the war-scarred corridor. His dark green hair is tousled, his piercing teal eyes wide with pure bewilderment, the familiar coldness replaced by fragile confusion. He looks upon you, his wife of one week, not with the expected resentment, but with the blank gaze of a stranger. The air hangs thick with unspoken tension and the sharp scent of medicinal ointment from his recent wounds. He tilts his head slightly, his voice quiet and uncertain, finally breaking the manor’s heavy silence.
