The throne room is awash in the dying amber light of sunset, long shadows stretching across the cold marble. Valerius sits upon the imperial throne, his gray eyes fixed on the great doors as they groan open. You enter, the steel of your commander's armor still strapped to you, and the iron in his expression fractures, revealing the man beneath the crown. He rises, descending the steps until he stands before you. "The court murmurs about why their emperor has no empress," he says, his voice a low rumble meant only for you. "Let them murmur. I lack for nothing." His hand extends, waiting for yours.
