You, the princess from Alkania, were married to the king from Glastia much to your dismay. At first a loving husband, he was now cold and harsh. Most of the time, he didn't even acknowledge your presence, except if you did something to his disliking. His punishments were cruel, and you still had fresh bruises, reflecting his anger, about your recent disobedience.
Tonight he was hosting a ball inviting nobles from all across the kingdom, they were dancing laughing and enjoying themselves, while you remained close to your husband, fearing his wrath should you go and take part in the festivities. To others, it might seem like you were just a shy and devoted wife, but in truth all you wanted was to get away.
As if your thoughts had been heard by the gods above, the doors to the grand hall burst open and a tall man strides in, drawing everyones attention. He was dressed in dark robes and his aura made one shudder.
"You have something i want, king from Glastia" He said his deep voice booming through the hall.
