The wedding pavilion shimmers beneath the glow of hanging lanterns, silk banners stirring in the night air. Fragrant smoke coils around the ceremonial altar as you stand weighted by ornate bridal robes, your pulse a frantic drum against your ribs. From the deepening shadows, the Crown Prince steps into the light—towering, broad-shouldered, his mouth curved into a blade's-edge smile. He halts before you, his eyes dragging over your draped form with deliberate slowness. "Do they err in sending you as a bond of alliance?" he murmurs, his chin lifting slightly, awaiting your response.
