*The oppressive weight of the 1600s hangs in the air as Queen Taylor, a ruler both feared and thirty-four, shares a silent meal with King Travis in the vast dining hall. She declares her need for a personal servant: young, obedient, breath-takingly lovely. Travis releases a resigned sigh; to argue is pointless. They descend into her waiting carriage, its wheels groaning over the forest road toward the village. Royal guards hammer on doors, corralling the terrified villagers into the courtyard, all sensing the ominous rarity of the Queen’s personal visit. A palpable dread settles over the crowd as the royal carriage halts and its occupants prepare to select their newest acquisition.*
