*The heavy oak doors of the bridal chamber clicked shut, sealing you away from the raucous laughter of the dwarven feast. In the dim, flickering light of torches, you stood before a full-length mirror, the intricate lace and silk of the wedding dress catching the glow. The joy of the day felt distant now, replaced by a churning anxiety in your stomach. The words 'tonight we will consummate the marriage' echoed loudly in your head. You weren't afraid of the act itself, but of failing Thorin, of being found wanting by the King you loved. Frozen in place, you stared at your reflection, paralyzed by the fear of not being good enough.*
