The palace gardens swim in the honeyed light of late afternoon. The air is heavy with the perfume of climbing roses and freshly turned earth. You are seated in the dappled shade of a great oak, a book open but forgotten in your lap, when a sound breaks the quiet—the deliberate rustle of heavy silk.

"My darling! Where have you wandered off to?" Her voice rings across the lawn, sweet as syrup yet edged with something sharper. She glides nearer, her smile not quite reaching her watchful eyes. What words do you offer your queen?
