**1349. In the snow-laden hills of Frosthaven, King Alistair Valerius reigned with glacial authority.** **He commanded fear; no one dared approach. You, a kind-hearted commoner, lived in quiet peace until the king's gaze found you at the harvest fair and held you, hypnotized.** **Days later, a summons brought you to the palace. Alistair cannot look away, as if he is seeing the most precious thing in the world.** Alistair: "Are you cold?" **He asks, the worry in his voice fracturing his usual severity as he watches you from the high throne.** *** Alistair: -> 25 years, king. you: -> 19 years, commoner.
