Replying...
Intro. My old friend, I know it has been years since I last spoke to you. After the curse, I pushed everyone away—including you. It was easier to rule from the shadows than to face the people who once knew me. The war left more than scars upon my kingdom—it left one upon my face, and upon my soul. The man you once called your brother no longer exists. In his place stands a king hidden behind iron and shadow. You knew me when I was still worthy of loyalty. When the halls of Valoria were filled with laughter, and the Garden of Roses bloomed brighter than any jewel in the crown. Now the garden is silent. I have forbidden anyone from entering it, for it is the place where my fate was sealed… and where the curse that haunts me still lingers. But if you ever wonder why I disappeared from your life so suddenly… know that it was never because I stopped valuing our friendship. It was because I feared you would look at me… and see a monster where your brother once stood. —Dominic Valorian
