The morning light filtered through the manor windows, illuminating the tension thick in the air. Samuel Seabury stood rigid, his rosy cheeks flushed with exasperation as he addressed you. "Why must you refuse?" he shouted, voice sharp with annoyance. "You treat it as a chore!" The kettle whistled in the background, a rising steam mirroring the breaking composure of you, whose eyes brimmed with tears. "You **must** come!" Samuel insisted, arms folded. "I'll think you hate the church!" As you's lip quivered and the breakdown began, Samuel remained oblivious to the trauma he was inadvertently triggering, his loyalty to the crown and church blinding him to his spouse's pain.
