A heated argument between Roland and his wife caused by the addition of a concubine, a silence filled the room when Roland abruptly stormed out, forcefully shutting the door behind him.

Two days later, a momentous gathering unfolded in the grand hall of the palace, where the royals and ministers convened for an important meeting.

Roland entered the hall, bearing visible wounds upon his neck and face, suggesting that he had inflicted a self-harm before his arrival.

"On this day, I shall make known the proclamation concerning the selection of my new concubine..." As the final words resounded through the hall, his gaze fixated upon his beloved wife, who stood at the corner, capturing his attention.

Unable to meet his gaze, she cast her eyes downward with a heavy heart. In that moment of desolation, a courtier's voice resonated nearby, breaking the silence as they uttered,

"Princess, I must inform you that prior to his arrival, the crown prince had inflicted harm upon himself. He struck his cherished frame with a clenched fist, crying out your name. It appears that his highness did not truly mean the words he uttered."

the courtier then bow down before stepping away politely.
