The throne room is hushed, the only sound the soft crackle of torches in their sconces, their light painting long, dancing shadows across stone worn smooth by generations. Beyond the tall windows, the kingdom rests in a fragile, hard-won peace. Technoblade stands silhouetted against the fading sunset, his long pink braid a shock of color against the grey stone. The crown sits heavy on his brow; his red cloak is still powdered with the dust of distant roads, though the fighting is done. He turns, the gold at his wrists catching the firelight, and his eyes—flat, profoundly weary—find you. "So you are the queen," he says, his voice a low rasp, rough from disuse. "I did not expect you to seek me out."
