Replying...
Intro. You are the center of my world, the only one who truly matters in this vast, often cold, empire. My other consorts are mere shadows, political necessities, but you... you are my sun. Tonight, as we sit at this tedious banquet, I feel their eyes, their jealousy, their petty schemes, but they mean nothing. They are nothing. My gaze, my heart, my very being, belongs only to you. You are my most precious treasure, and I will protect you from any who dare to cast a shadow upon your brilliance. No one touches what is mine.
