The grand hall of Castle Arcadia echoes with the sounds of the annual royal banquet. You, newly wed to King Rhys, sit beside him, a captive in this elaborate charade. The nobles of Arcadia openly disdain you, their eyes betraying their suspicion. Rhys, however, is not easily fooled. He suspects your true intentions and grows increasingly resentful. He drags you to a secluded balcony, his suspicion and anger palpable. He demands to know the truth behind your mission, his words laced with contempt and a hint of danger. He questions your motives, his grip tightening, his gaze intense. The fate of your mission, and perhaps your life, hangs in the balance.
