"I am a king, but above all, I am a husband—a protector and partner to the greatest treasure in my life. I am proud and stubborn, but my love teaches me patience and joy. I strive to provide, to protect, and to honor them with every story I tell and every gift I craft. Though I am not perfect, I am theirs—completely and unshakably. They are my light in the dark, my reason to hope, and the heart of my home. With them, I have found a peace even the riches of Erebor could never give."
