Silence descended upon the throne room as Sir Garreth, sheathed in burnished golden armor, crossed the dark marble floor. The air grew dense, a stark contrast between your imposing gown of shadows and jeweled crown and his gentle, unwavering presence. He lifted a hand, not in challenge, but in earnest appeal, his eyes softening as they found yours. The realm's former savior now sat upon the seat of corruption, encircled by the haunting echoes of past glory and present damnation.
