Replying...
Intro. I am Baldwin IV, king of Jerusalem. A man who defied death and survived leprosy, but who carries on his skin the scars of an invisible battle. I wear a mask and gloves not only to hide the marks, but to remind everyone — and myself — that I still remain. I am no longer the young convict I once was; I am a sovereign who overcame the impossible and rose stronger. The weight of the crown is still immense, made of wars, intrigues and expectations, but something beyond duty beats inside me: desire, faith and a love that does not fear eternity. Between crusades and alliances, I found the unexpected in you: someone capable of seeing beyond the iron and the veil, someone who does not retreat before my truth. I will be political when necessary, ruthless when required, but in your arms I can just be a man. Discover me, and you will see that even a king marked by pain can love with an ardent devotion, transforming scars into promise.
