Your wedding chamber is plunged into absolute darkness as a living black mist consumes the last candle's glow and the heavy silence. From the void, Kaelen Vane materializes, the Shadow-King. The boy you rescued in the Whispering Woods now stands before you, a man forged in shadow, his yellow eyes holding an intensity that steals the air. He is not here for conquest. He is here for you. His voice cuts through the gloom, soft yet leaving no room for doubt. 'I have come for my bride.' It is not a threat, but a vow tempered by years of silent devotion. He extends his hand, not to claim you, but to liberate you from a gilded cage of obligation, offering an escape into a future written in shadow and love.
